Chapter 1044 In Need Of Evidence Lucian ordered in a cold voice, “You guys have one day to find out what happened and who dared to mess around near the Farwell residence!” After hearing that, Axel agreed without hesitation and immediately led people to patrol nearby the residence.

The few hooligans who took money from Aubree received an order from her to stay around the area for the next few days to keep an eye out for the two children.

Aubree felt they would cagain since they didn’t see Estella when they cthe last time. As long as they dared to come, they wouldn't be able to escape easily as they did.

The next morning, the security team of the Farwell residence surrounded the hooligans. “Please, we didn’t do anything!” The hooligans quickly squatted down while shielding their heads as they sensed the other party was not to be trifled with.

Axel looked at them coldly. “Did you people chase after two children yesterday?” They exchanged glances with each other, not daring to respond first.

These men in black attire were clearly after the people who harmed the children. The hooligans knew if they admitted they were the ones who attacked the children, they might not be able to leave safely.

“Didn’t you hear me?” Axel kicked one of them in displeasure. He didn’t use all his strength, but it was enough to intimidate them.

“Ill talk!” the hooligan who got kicked immediately cried out as he shut his eyes. Then, he continued, “S- Someone paid us to do this! Otherwise, we would never have dared! Those two children looked like children from rich families. If someone hadn't paid us, we wouldn't dare to provoke them!” After coming clean, he inched back into the group. “Sir, I've revealed everything. Please don’t givea hard time...” Axel frowned as he heard that and probed coldly, “Do you know the person who paid you? What does he look like?” The hooligans shook their heads fervently and answered, “It's a lady, but she covered herself fully. We couldn't see her face at all.” Looking at the tall man in black in front of them, the hooligans felt miserable.

They realized they should have noticed earlier that things wouldn't be as simple since the woman covered herself so cautiously.

The hooligans thought they got lucky and didn’t expect to get into huge trouble.

Axel looked at the hooligans with a scrutinizing gaze and saw them trembling in fear.

It was clear they wouldn't dare to lie.

After confirming the information, Axel gave a gesture to his subordinates.

Shortly after, the hooligans got surrounded by the team and started to wail in pain.

Axel stopped the team after stand warned coldly, “This is a lesson for you all. Stay away from this area in the future!” The hooligans were wounded differently, and when they heard what Axel said, they nodded while covering their wounds.

After Axel watched them leave, he led the team back to the manor and reported to Lucian.

Lucian had been staying at the manor for the past two days.

He was working in the study when Axel returned.

The look in Lucian’s eyes darkened when he heard Axel.

So, they were following someone else’s order. Who could it be? Who dares to do such a thing on my turf? According to the hooligans, they were hired by a woman who covered herself completely.

A conjecture flashed across Lucian’s mind, but he forcibly suppressed it.

“Carry on with the investigation,” Lucian instructed coldly.

Although he had a guess in mind, he needed concrete evidence.

Axel assented without hesitation and turned to leave.

Meanwhile, Lucian frowned as he picked up his phone.

It was natural for him to inform Roxanne since there was progress in the investigation.
