At the same time, Edie already got into the car and rushed out of the garage. A silver-white car followed her closely.
Edie drove so quickly as if she wanted to suicide. She arrived at the restaurant soon.
It was not time for dinner. Except for the waitress, Edie didnāt see customers here.
When seeing her, the waitress looked surprised. He took a gesture to another waitress to ask her to tell that fat cook to hide himself.
"Miss Lara, what can I do to help you?"
Edie didnāt say a word. She rushed into the kitchen directly. No one could stop her.
The cook was changing his clothes. He was preparing to run away. But there was not another door here. Edie successfully blocked him,
"I want you to cook for me. I would pay for you."
Her eyes turned cold, fixing on the fat cook.
The cook looked embarrassed. It has been quite a long time since Stuart came here last time. He could make the same kind of food made by him.
"Miss Lara, I am sorry. I donāt feel well today. I am afraid that I couldnāt cook for you today. Maybe next time,"
"I want it now," she said word by word as if these words were squeezed out.
"But..."
"Mr., do I look so kind? So you think it is quite easy to reject me? Do I need to ask your manager out?
Edieās face turned cold. Her attitude was so tough today.,
Hearing her words, the cook trembled slightly. He felt that Edie changed now. It has been just ten days since he saw her last time. What changed her? Why did she change so suddenly?
He shook hopelessly. He knew he couldnāt lie to her anymore. So he returned back and started cooking.
Edie didnāt leave the kitchen. She just stood there and looked at the cook.
The waitress reminded her, "Miss Lara, the kitchen attaches great importance to a restaurant. No customer is allowed here."
"I would pay you. I would give you whatever you asked. I donāt come to report you or check the hygiene here. I just want to see how your cook." Edie said, without even turning around.
Her voice was not low or loud. Everyone could hear her. Her voice sounded really cold.
The waitress didnāt dare to say more words to her.
At this moment, Edie heard a sharp female voice. Hicks was coming here.
"Edie, come out. I know you are here. Get the hell out. Admit it, do you dare to admit it? Where did you take Stuart? Tell me now."
"Miss, you are not allowed here...."
But it was too late.
Hicks saw Edie standing there straightly. She walked to her and caught the collar of her clothes, "Where did you take Stuart? Tell me"
"Get out!"
Edieās lips turned pale. Her voice was still extremely cold.
"What the hell are you talking about? You are the one that made Stuart disappear. Why could you say this? Tell me, or I would kill you now, for Stuart."
Hicks choked Edieās neck like a crazy beast. Her face was twitched.
But...Edie threw her away the next second.
The floor in the kitchen was wet. Hicks slipped down. She looked so embarrassed at the moment.
"I...I will kill you."
She climbed up and rushed to Edie to pull her hair. But Edie buckled her hands and pushed her back. Finally, Hicks was pressed on the door hard.
"Let...me.. me go. I am going to kill you today. You are such a shameless bitch. You made him be laughed at by everyone. Now you cause him to disappear. You made him lose everything. Do you know?"
Edie realized Hicks already knew Aaron would take over the L.N group.
She asked immediately, "So you know where Stuart is, right?"
"I wonāt come to ask you if I know. You such a bitch. If something happened to Stuart, I swear I would revenge for him."
Hicks spared no effort to roar out.
"Shut your mouth up."
Edie suddenly shouted out. Her voice was cold, heavy, and scary. Her eyes turned red. Her face looked frightening.
"Donāt you dare to say it again. I didnāt do anything to Stuart. He is fine. He just hides himself. I didnāt do anything to him."
Edie didnāt do anything to Stuart. What could she tell?
Even Hicks wanted Edie to tell, and Hicks needed to show her the evidence so Edie could know what happened to Stuart. Even she had to take othersā blame, and she needed to know the truth.
Looking at Edieās angry face, Hicks couldnāt help herself bursting into laughter, "Do you think I would believe you? Stuart has lost everything now, do you feel satisfied? You must want to cooperate with Aaron to handle Stuart. You must plan this. Aaron hated Stuart so much. He never stopped thinking about how to seize power from Stuart. So you must cooperate with him to kill Stuart."
These words...
Like a curse from hell, shocked Edie.
Edie was too shocked to say a word.
Yes, why could she forget this? Aaron hated Stuart. He wanted to seize his power. Perhaps, the kidnapping might be false.
She hasnāt seen Stuart since Aaron saved her. So he might be kidnapped at that point.
Besides...
When Rose called her, Edie could feel the joy from her voice. She was so proud of her son.
Was everything a plot of Aaron and Rose?
Edie knew she shouldnāt believe this. She was out of mind now. But when this idea popped into her mind, she couldnāt get it away.
What was the truth? What the hell was the truth? What really happened?
At that moment, the door of the kitchen was opened. Aaron rushed in.
Seeing Edie pressing Hicks on the door, he took a relief, "why donāt you tell me before coming here alone? I am so worried about you."
Hearing Aaronās words, Edie turned around. Her eyes were cold.
When seeing Edieās words, Aaron frowned.
Edie looked so strange at the moment.
"Edie, whatās up?"
"Tell me, is it your plot to make Stuart disappear?"
She questioned him word by word. Her voice was so cold, like the ice from underground.
Her questioning is freezing Aaron.
She....said these words.
Was she suspecting him?
"Are you out of mind? Suspecting me?" he roared out angrily.
No one believed him, except Edie, since he was born,
Even though he made lots of mistakes, Edie was still willing to believe him. But now, even Edie started suspecting him.
