Chapter 412 She bent down to pick him up and walked towards the bedroom.

"Listen here, kiddo, remember it's your face that looks like your uncle's that saved you!" Even in his sleep, he was muttering oway, and Xanthea couldn't help but laugh, both annoyed and fond. It took talent to tire both himself and a dog.

After settling both the child and the dog, she thought about calling back the dismissed servants to clean up the floor, only to find her phone dead. She accidentally stepped on a strawberry and slipped onto the carpet.

"Duch." Lying where she fell, Xanthea stared hopelessly at the crystal chandelier overhead. Taking care of kids was truly no easy feat. She vowed she'd never have such a mischievous child! In the Crestwood CBD, within the Twin Towers' 22th floor conferences room.

"Mr. Lockwood, this is the contract we finalized after multiple discussions between our two groups. Please, take a look!" The legal representative from MR Group handed over the contract.

Ohon glanced down, meticulously reviewing each clause.

Leonard noticed the young vice president of MR Group, Ms. Thomas, who couldn't take her eyes off Orion, filled with admiration and infatuation. He chuckled, "Ms. Thomas, you're truly impressive. Becoming the VP of MR Group in just three years and representing the group in such a major collaboration is truly admirable." "Oh, it's nothing. Mr. Marlowe, you're the real young talent here."

Our Mr. Lockwood, who's five or six years younger than you, already has a girlfriend, or rather, is about to start a family!" His words, with their hidden meaning, changed Roxanne's expression "Family?" "Yeah, haven't you heard? It's all over the Interecently. The heiress of the Nightshade family from the southem areas of Crestwood, the famous star Xanthea. Haven't you heard it, Ms. Thomas?" She had heard, but had assumed it was either a business alliance between families or just celebrity gossip. It never crossed her mind that it could be related to marriage, especially since the Nightshade family's young heiress had just cof age.

Leonard's mention of Xanthea distracted the contract-focused man for a rare moment, causing him to glance frequently at his phone An hour ago, Xannie had finished a magazine shoot and hadn't messaged him back. Was she asleep? What was she doing? Did she have lunch on time? Was she being bothered by Seb.

As he skimmed through the contract, planning to sign at the end, the meeting room door suddenly burst open.

Cedric, looking panicked and out of breath, rushed in.

Leonard jumped, "Cedric, what's the matter?" "It's a bad news, really bad, sir!" Cedric, adjusting his glasses and trembling, held his phone.

"What happened?"

"Just now, the hospital called.

Matthew bypassed the police guards and escaped from the ¶u. He had a knife on him. The nurse said he was muttering about going to find Ms.

Nightshade." As he spoke, Orion's eyes instantly narrowed.

"I've been trying to call Ms.

Nightshade, but she's not picking up, and nobody's answering the house phone either. We've already called the police."

he could finish, the man had already bolted out, knocking him aside.
