Chapter 324 The Oriental Woman Attracted Many Men
The night in Poya tonight was so dark that there was not even a star
“Mr. Moore, the online posts and comments have been deleted, the trending topic has also been removed, and I have sent people to thank those passengers who ‘spoke up’ for Ms. Newman.”
Jose told Owen one by one.
Owen didn’t look up but gave a faint “hmm”.
Staring at the passenger’s description on the web page and listening repeatedly to Mr. Yerkes’ recorded interview, he could almost imagine what happened on the plane, and imagine what Hailey looked like.
She must have been terrified. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Even in the eyes of people, she was so calm and quiet, but he knew that in that life-threatening situation, she must be very afraid.
If only he had been by her side at that time.
Seeing that Mr. Moore’s emotions were a bit complicated now, Jose didn’t want to disturb him, but there were some things he couldn’t leave unsaid.
“Mr. Moore, Miss Brown has come out of the hotel.”
Owen snapped out of his daze and looked at Jose, frowning slightly.
Jose hurriedly handed his phone to Owen, who took it, swiped it twice, and saw a set of photos of Eliza.
They hired a private detective to follow Eliza.
After arriving in Poya, Eliza stayed at the hotel, during which Mr. Lloyd stayed overnight. After a day, she got into a car in the evening and went to another hotel.
“Did you get the license plate number?” Owen asked in a hushed voice.
Jose, “I had someone check it out. Mr. Lloyd does things so secretly that the owner of this car is one of his cousins from his hometown and the hotel is owned by his wife’s brother.”
Owen said lightly, “He does have quite a lot of relatives.”
“Yes.”
Jose, “Mr. Lloyd was very poor before and it was hard for him to get to this position today. He is very popular among women and has been divorced twice. In his career, he steadily rose through the ranks. He and his current wife are in an open. marriage, separated for many years, with each living their own life. Mrs. Lloyd’s private life is quite open, often in and out of certain occasions. But Mr. Lloyd is more cautious and rarely goes out to play because he values power more.”
Owen looked at the two people in the car close to each other, and his face was blank, “How did they know each other?” Jose pursed his lips, “It was… your father, Mr. Long, who introduced them.”
Owen looked up suddenly, with his eyes cold.
“I also received news that Maya is on medical parole and should also be released early.”
When Owen heard this, coldness crossed his eyes, like the cool breeze from a mountain stream. After a long time, he snorted, “It seems that Mr. Long is really a man with lasting affection.”
He always had the pleasure of falling in love with the same woman over and over again.
And it seemed that the women of the Brown family were not as incompetent as he thought.
Although Maya and Eliza were stupid but very good at using their gender advantage to conquer the men by meeting their sense of “achievement” and “vanity”
But in this world, not all women would put their thoughts and tricks on men as they did.
With their own character and their own business, they could live outstandingly and independently.
Without being dependent on men, they could also live wonderfully.
His phone suddenly vibrated and a message popped up.
Jose stood beside Owen and said, “It looks like a video taken by the private detective.”
He reached out and clicked. The video was dimly lit and a black car parked at the entrance of a hidden alley, exactly the one Eliza was on, with the license plate deliberately covered up with a cloth.
Immediately after, the car began to shake wildly and one of the woman’s feet was raised high, with the high heel against the glass.
Jose hurriedly turned off the video, his heart pounding, and then he went to peek at Owen.
However, Owen looked calm, with not so much expression on his face.
There was just some disgust in his eyes.
Owen handed the phone back to Jose, and lightly instructed, “Save the video and photos, as they should come in handy later.”
Hailey’s life in Bormintam was busy and fulfilling.
There were many parties, banquets, and balls here. Ms. Newman, who seldom attended social occasions at home, completely freed herself when she arrived abroad and picked the fun ones from a pile of invitations to attend.
In order to follow the customs of this country, she wore a dress with a drawstring top and a puffy bottom, put on a cloak-like bowler hat, and went to the meeting in a carriage.
As one of the few oriental beauties, Hailey attracted many men.
And without keeping a low profile, she had a great time hanging out with Robert and others. When someone came up to her, she was able to chat with them with a smile on her face.
She was like a walking social butterfly.
But her temperament and dress made her so elegant and noble, and she just looked like a peony flower living on earth, making people unable to use dirty thoughts to delude and denigrate her.
However, she also attracted discontent and jealousy by being in the limelight.
Hailey was laughing and joking with a duke when a woman wearing a black dress and a black gauze hat, with a glass of wine in her hand, walked towards her.
As she reached Hailey’s side, the wine glass in her hand was held steady by a hand just before it was about to tilt down. Hailey’s cool voice rang out, “Madam, please hold your glass.”
The woman turned slightly to meet Hailey’s eyes and introduced herself, “I’m the owner of Thrushcross Grange, Katherine May Brown. I’m a widow, and everyone here calls me Ms. May.”
Hailey maintained basic manners and said lightly, “Hello, I’m Grace.”
The duke saw that they seemed to have something to say and walked away sensibly.
“You’re Earl Hill’s sister?”
Mrs. May asked, “And is your last name Ingram as well?”
“No”
Hailey said lightly in fluent English, “We are half-siblings.”
In foreign countries, it was common to see half-siblings, and kinship ties were not as tight as they were in China.
Mrs May gave a faint “oh” and continued, “I never heard him mention that he had a sister like you.”
“That’s normal.”
Without annoyance or anger, Hailey smiled lightly, “That only means you are not familiar.”
Maybe angry, Mrs. May was slightly stunned, and then she smiled, fluttered her long eyelashes, moved closer to Hailey, and whispered, “I have slept with your brother Is this kind of relationship considered familiar?”
Hailey did not say anything, thinking that this woman might be suffering from some serious illness, or something mentally wrong
She raised her eyes slightly. Looking at a figure walking not far away, she said lightly, “Why not let my dear brother answer you this question.”
