My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 289

When Abel thought about Sophia’s testimony on the intimate actions that Phantom Wolf did to her, the chalk powder must have spilled onto her clothes at that time.

Who usually has chalk powder on their body? The answer is obvious. This means that Phantom Wolf didn’t sneak into the school. Instead, he himself is a member of Bayside University. If he isn’t a teacher, he is a student!

During the past few years, Abel had formed a team consisting of people who had blood feuds with Phantom Wolf. Their only purpose of living was to capture Phantom Wolf and avenge themselves. The whole team was busy all night, but it was still rewarding in the end.

The results revealed that Phantom Wolf was a teacher at Bayside University with a fair skin, a sharp chin and an exceptional appearance. At least everyone had something to work with.

The next day, Sophia woke up on time at half past 6AM. She usually woke up at that hour to prepare for school since classes started at 8AM, but Michael wouldn’t allow her to head to school for the time being after yesterday’s incident. She was also scared that Phantom Wolf would suddenly show up again, so she lacked the courage to go to school too.

She remained motionless on the bed while he got out of bed to wash himself.

Nathan silently opened the door while carrying his bag. He poked his head in and had a look around before Michael came out of the restroom with a toothbrush stuck in his mouth, whispering, “Darling, you need to go to school by yourself today. Your mommy is sick, so she won’t be going to class today.”

Then, Sophia heard Nathan’s tottering steps as he rushed toward her and touched her forehead with his tiny hand. He then withdrew it to touch his own forehead.

When Michael finished washing himself, he brought Nathan out of the room. “Darling, your mommy won’t be going to school for the next few days, so you need to head to school alone. You need to listen to…”

As the voices of the father and son became further and further, Sophia sat up and gazed out of the window to see him sending Nathan into the car. She was still watching when the car drove far away.

At some point, Michael was already back in the room and he hugged her waist from the back. “You can rest at home for the next two days. After a couple more days, you’ll be able to return to school. I’ve already applied for leave on your behalf from school and have also contacted a teacher to make up for the lessons that you missed.”

She nodded her head.

After breakfast, Michael also went out the door.

It was obvious that he had massively increased the security around the place, turning the entire Villa No.8 into a steel wall. Moreover, the house was situated next to the ancient Imperial Palace, the house of the emperor, so it was the safest place in Bayside City. Phantom Wolf definitely wouldn’t dare to cause a stir at the place.

After having breakfast, Sophia read a book for a while and saw Maria entering her room to collect her dirty clothes. She suddenly thought of something, so she walked into the restroom… Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The Imperial was much bigger than what it looked on the surface. Save for the castle-like houses above ground, there were also a few levels of underground basements.

At that moment in the basement, Abel was searching for Phantom Wolf’s whereabouts.

She was the first person that he met who had a connection with Phantom Wolf. It was a huge breakthrough because once the powerful Phantom Wolf established a connection with someone, it was only a matter of time before he revealed himself.

Abel began his investigation from that night three years ago when she fell into the water and was sent to Lovely Hospital. He didn’t let any clue slip away from his eyes.

Suddenly, she opened the door and entered.

Back then, Sophia didn’t have the permission to enter the basement. However, after the incident with Phantom Wolf, Michael allowed her to occasionally enter to check on the progress, so it was her first time heading to the basement. The place was full of people and various apparatus—including an advanced hologram.

Hale had mentioned before that there was a hidden tunnel in the basement that led directly to the outside world and even the ancient Imperial Palace.

Michael was a genius and always acted faster than most people. Many years ago, when the real estate industry was in recession, he had bought numerous plots of land to invest in real estate.

When he bought the land of the Imperial, he realized that there was a network of underground tunnels that was used by ancient emperors to escape from rebel armies and it was now used by him.

When she came down, everyone in the laboratory was shocked, but they immediately continued with their work.

Abel, who had been busy for the whole night, came to her and respectfully asked, “Madam, what is it?”

She didn’t know about his background, but Michael had a great trust in his men, especially the ones in his team of bodyguards. Abel is the top bodyguard in the team, so he must be someone brilliant.

Sophia thought about it for a while and took a plastic wrap that contained her underwear from her bag. Then, she handed it over to Abel and said with embarrassment, “Yesterday, I was too scared, so I didn’t explain everything clearly. I thought about it again for a while last night. That man… When he touched me, he seemed to have removed his gloves.”

Abel’s eyes brightened.

Phantom Wolf had wanted to assault Sophia for pleasure, but he might have removed his gloves to touch her skin for a more intimate experience. If he had touched her, there is a possibility that he might have left fingerprints.

Therefore, he took her set of underwear away to run a scan.

Upon seeing a bunch of people studying the underwear that she wore, she could almost feel her heart collapse.

Since she had nothing to do at home, she frequently went down to check on Abel’s progress.

Three days after the incident, he gave her the good news—they had found Phantom Wolf’s fingerprints!

At that time, Sophia was terrified, so she returned home to have a bath. They definitely were unable to locate any fingerprints on her body after she washed it, but the clothes were not washed yet. Usually, it was hard to leave fingerprints on clothing, but coincidentally, that day, she was so scared that she started to sweat and cry. She had probably applied some foundation or makeup on her face, so when Phantom Wolf used his hands to touch her face, his fingers were stained by the cosmetic product and liquid. Therefore, he left his fingerprint on her clothes when he touched her.

After so many years, no one in the world was ever able to get their hands on Phantom Wolf’s fingerprints. That in itself was an unprecedented breakthrough.

They even found a lip print on her underclothes.

With the fingerprint, the lip print and a search range, everything became much easier.

At the same time, Abel had gathered all of the suspicious teachers in Bayside University in an extremely short period of time.

In Bayside University, there were lots of students and teachers. They could not exclude the possibility that Phantom Wolf was a student, but they started to investigate the teachers first. The suspect was young, had fair skin, a sharp chin, and a striking appearance—with a narrow scope of search, they cross-checked the fingerprint with the remaining samples and quickly released the result.

When Sophia had a look at the list of suspects that Abel concluded, she was shocked to discover that the first name on the list was Quinton Clark.

He is a teacher of Bayside University with a fair skin, sharp chin and a striking appearance. On top of that, he isn’t young, so everything matches! However, I feel that this is impossible. Quinton is the heir to the famous Clark Family, so how could he be Phantom Wolf?

She held the list in daze and looked at it for a while. Suddenly, she asked Abel, “If Phantom Wolf is really hiding in Bayside University, does that mean Nate is in danger?”

Abel answered, “Nate will be fine. Phantom Wolf is a cold-blooded killer, but he never lays his hands on minors.”

Not only the current Phantom Wolf, but the past few people who took on Phantom Wolf’s mantle never broke the rule.

Besides, there were experts around Nathan who would protect him.

When his name was mentioned, she finally remembered that he only had one class in the evening. He should be returning home at any minute.

Sure enough, it was a short while later that Hale knocked on the door and said, “Madam, Little Master is back and even brought along your professional course teacher home.”
