DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 1037 Clarify
"Everyone I asked said they hadn't seen or recognized that person, and some didn't even respond. But I thought these reactions were quite normal, so I didn't think much of it. After asking around, I went straight to bed. However, I suddenly noticed a new account had added me this morning, asking me why I was probing into this matter."
Upon hearing that, Anthony felt a sudden tightness in his heart. "And then?"
"Since he was the one who reached out to me first, I didn't make it clear. I just said I was asking for a friend and wasn't sure about the specifics. Then, I asked him if he knew this person, but he never responded to me again," Magus said, shaking his head.
As Anthony listened, his eyes narrowed slightly.
He believed that no one would ask that question for no reason. If they're not an acquaintance, they're an enemy.
Moreover, his intuition told him that there was something off about the person who approached them. At the very least, Anthony figured that person was acquainted with Kenneth.
Regardless of whether they were friend or foe, Anthony needed to figure it out.
Lifting his gaze, he looked at Magus, about to say something. However, Magus added, "What I find most peculiar is that I suddenly realized the person who added me isn't even in the group.” Upon hearing that, Anthony asked, "So, what are you trying to say?"
"In that group, there must be someone who knows your daddy," Magus murmured. "But whether they are friends or foes, I can't tell. Perhaps they're a friend, afraid that I might harm your daddy? The other party might also be an enemy, but I can't be certain. What I can be sure of is that this person is definitely in the group, afraid of revealing themselves, so they've added me with a new account."
"Nevertheless, these are just my speculations. Whether they're true or not, I don't know," Magus said.
Anthony looked at him. "If that's the case, then my judgment aligns with yours. Whether friend or foe, I will definitely figure it out."
"I've already sent you that person's account information this morning, but I couldn't reach you by phone," said Magus.
Anthony was momentarily stunned. "I might have accidentally put it on silent mode while sleeping yesterday."
"It's all right." Magus smiled slightly. "I will try my best to find more information. I'll let you know immediately as soon as I have any news." Anthony nodded. "All right, but be careful not to reveal your location."
"Understood." Magus nodded.
"All right, it's getting late. You should go now," Anthony said to him.
Magus nodded. He was just about to turn around and get in the car when a voice suddenly echoed nearby. "Wait a moment."
Glancing back, they saw Benjamin and Denise hurrying toward them.
Finally catching up, Denise panted, saying, "I've finally made it."
Anthony looked at her, then at Benjamin. "How did you guys get here?"
Denise glanced at Magus and then at the people in the car. She said, “We've prepared some food for you. It's just a small token of our goodwill for your journey."
Saying so, Benjamin walked over and handed it to Magus.
"This..." Magus looked at them, momentarily at a loss for what to do.
He had a feeling of being taken care of by three kids while going out.
Seeing him fall silent, Denise raised an eyebrow. "What's the matter? You don't like the food?"
"No, that's not it..." Magus looked at her, momentarily at a loss for words.
He never imagined that he would one day be healed by three children. At that moment, there was an indescribable sense of wonder in his heart.
Denise looked at him and sighed. "Never mind. Men are just not good at expressing themselves." With that, she turned her gaze to Lina in the car and walked over. "Lina, all this food is prepared for you. I hope you'll like it."
Lina sat in the car, looking at Denise and the two children standing outside. Her eyes were filled with joy and gratitude.
"Thank you, thank you all, and you too, Denise," said Lina.
Lina was genuinely fond of Denise. She recovered so quickly during that period because Denise often came to visit, and it was through their frequent chats that she could recuperate. Otherwise, for her, living would be a constant struggle. For the sake of Magus, she really didn't know when she might not be able to hold on any longer.
However, because of Denise, she had gradually let go of such thoughts. Now, her mind was filled with the vibrant image of the child.
However, Denise smiled slightly, then leaned in and whispered something in her ear. After Lina heard that, her face instantly turned red. "This..."
"I believe in you. You can definitely do it. Keep going. I'll be waiting for your good news," Denise said.
Lina looked at her. "I hope she can be as adorable as you when the time comes..."
"Definitely," Denise said.
Lina looked at her and smiled slightly.
At that moment, Anthony chimed in from the side, "All right, it's getting late. You should get going."
Upon hearing the voice, Denise looked at Lina and said, "Safe travels."
"All right. Thank you."
Denise stepped aside. Magus stood at one side, watching them with an indescribable look of emotion and gratitude in his eyes. However, he was indeed a man who struggled with expressing himself. After a long hesitation, he said, "Boss, wait for me." Anthony nodded at him.
Without another word, Magus simply got in the car and left.
The three kids stood behind, watching the car drive away and also watching the couple wave goodbye to them.
Denise spoke only after the car had driven far away. "With this departure, who knows when we'll meet again? Indeed, there are so many passersby in one's life..."
Hearing her sorrowful words, Benjamin walked up to her. "What's wrong? Are you reluctant to see them leave?"
Denise shook her head, then laughed and said, "No, it's not that. It's just a sudden realization." Turning to look at him, she continued, "In one's life, apart from oneself, everyone else is just a passerby or a spectator. So, there's no need to be sad. The world will keep turning even if someone is gone."
Upon hearing that, Benjamin squinted slightly. "Why do you sound more and more like Nat now? You're starting to give off her vibe."
Denise suddenly flashed a charming baby-toothed smile and said with a laugh, "That's because it was Nat who said that." "No wonder..."
At that moment, Anthony spoke up. "Let's go visit Nat."
The three of them turned around and started walking back.
Suddenly, Benjamin looked at Denise. "What did you whisper to Lina just now?"
"Hmm? What?"
"Stop playing dumb."
"Ben, why are you so nosy?" Denise asked.
"I'm not being nosy. We're just chatting."
"I won't tell you," said Denise.
"You..." He looked at her, completely at a loss. Benjamin turned his gaze to Anthony. "Tony, you should say something to her."
"Is there a need to ask about such things?" Anthony suddenly retorted.
"What's the matter? Do you know what she said?"
"If I'm not mistaken, you told them to have a child, right?" Anthony suddenly asked.
Denise was walking between the two, listening to Anthony's words. She smirked, thinking Anthony was boasting. However, after Anthony finished speaking, her eyes widened instantly as she stared at him. Anthony lifted his gaze and slightly arched his brow upon seeing her reaction. "It seems I'm right."
