I thought that Hendrix would not show up again. At eight o'clock, he came in with dinner with the security guards. I sat on the sofa and looked at him blankly.

There was no expression on his face. He came over to me and helped me to get up and walk to the dining table. Like all couples who were pregnant, we were careful, step by step.

We sat opposite each other. Hendrix seemed to be busier than before, and he had to stop to reply to messages on the phone when eating. I wanted to talk to him, but I couldn't find a chance to speak. Finally, half an hour later, his phone went silent.

I put down my utensils and was about to speak when we heard rustling footsteps from the door.

"Wow, wow, wow, Hendrix, are you sure this lifeless place belongs to the Roberts Group President?" Tobias looked the same as the last time we had met. The expensive suit could not cover his rugged look. He stopped in the middle of the living room and turned his face around. His eyes met mine, but he did not stop talking. "With this atmosphere, I thought you guys built a private prison here and wanted to imprison me. Arianna, this must be your idea, right? You wanted to see me!"

Well, I was wrong. Tobias was another one who was fearless. He'd dared to flirt with Hendrix's wife in front of him. It was hard to find such a person who would dare.

I was speechless. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw that Hendrix didn't seem surprised at his arrival. He was slowly munching on the dishes on the table, looking calm.

Tobias acted as if he did not care about his own life. He pulled out the chair beside me and sat down as put his elbow on the table, held his temple, and looked depressed. "To be honest, I can feel that you miss me. I'm just too busy. You won't blame me, right?"

I was so embarrassed that I poked the ground with my toe. The corner of my mouth twitched and I asked directly, "What's up, Mr. Hayes?"

Since Tobias had taken over the Hayes family, he had been trying his best to get rid of his enemies in his family's company. There must have been some other purpose behind his sudden appearance. As I had ignored him, Tobias was a little unhappy. He pursed his lips and pulled a long face before the arrogant expression on his face reappeared.

He uttered, "It's so boring every time. If you treat me like this, don't expect me to show up again."

I couldn't do anything to him before, so I subconsciously looked at Hendrix and asked him for help.

Hendrix seemed tranquil. After eating his last mouthful, he put down his cutlery and raised his dark eyes to look at me. He said unhurriedly, "Didn't you want to go to Mesville? Tobias's men have already gone there on your behalf. Now you can be rest assured."

"You?" I looked at Tobias, doubting his ability.

"What, are you not convinced?" Tobias said in a cocky tone, "Don't you know that the Hayes family is well-known as Jarold City's info hub? If my people can't even find him, then you can assume he is dead." "What's wrong with you?" What a sharp tongue. I was elated, yet unsure. "How can you be sure that he won't reject your men, since he would only contact me?"

Irvin's in Mesville, GW Group's home ground. That meant that he was in great danger. He had to be very careful if he wanted to save Shirley and Dannie, which explained why he didn't even contact the people in his company.

Tobias grinned. He took out a pen recorder from his suit pocket and placed it on the table. Then, my voice was broadcasted. "Irvin, contact me as soon as possible. We need to talk to each other face to face." I am startled. My God! I didn't remember saying those words at all!
