Chapter 144: Pres... President Fairchild
Becoming an actress was once her dream. Now that she could finally realize it, she was ready to pour her heart and soul into it!
However, Ian had been in one incident after another. Although he’d emerged unscathed each time, she was still on edge.
She couldn’t bear it if something actually happened...
She had to plan carefully for her and Ian’s future.
Melody Monroe arrived at the departure lounge and looked up at the display screen. Her flight was delayed!
She immediately went to find an airline employee to confirm.
The employee’s answer was: They didn’t know when the plane would be able to take off yet!
...
As the sky darkened, a small figure sat on a chair by the window, watching the setting sun. The golden twilight bathed him in a warm glow.
’Why isn’t Mom here yet?’
’Did her plane take off?’
’Mom must be so worried.’
Suddenly, Ian Monroe’s eyes lit up. He slid off the chair and ran outside.
Melody Monroe walked into the police station. Just as she was about to ask where Ian Monroe was, she saw a small figure sprinting toward her!
"Mommy!" Ian Monroe shouted joyfully.
Melody Monroe quickly opened her arms to welcome her little treasure!
"I’m sorry, Mommy’s late."
"No, it was my fault. I made you worry, Mommy."
Melody Monroe hugged Ian Monroe tightly. At that moment, she was finally at ease.
And at that moment, her resolve hardened.
If she couldn’t find someone completely trustworthy to look after Ian, she would give up everything to take care of him herself.
An officer in uniform walked over and extended a hand to Melody Monroe. "Miss Monroe? I’m the officer in charge of this case. My name is Walter Miller."
Melody Monroe quickly shook his hand. "Thank you so much."
"When we arrived, the suspect had already been subdued. It was the gentleman who claimed to know you but refused to confirm his identity with you. He’s still here."
"Mommy! He’s a big bad guy too! He must be lying about knowing you! If the police officers hadn’t gotten here in time, he would’ve kidnapped me!" Ian Monroe exclaimed, pulling on Melody Monroe’s hand.
Melody Monroe was completely bewildered. She wasn’t sure if this person was someone the original owner of her body knew.
’Who could it be?’
"Miss Monroe, please come with me."
"Okay." Melody Monroe put Ian down and took his hand, following Walter Miller.
"Officer, if you’re sure he’s a bad guy and my mommy doesn’t know him, are you going to arrest him?"
"Well, that will require further investigation."
Walter Miller walked into an office and pushed open the door to a room.
Melody Monroe led Ian Monroe to the doorway. The moment she saw the figure sitting in the chair, her blood ran cold!
"President... President Fairchild!"
Evan Fairchild was wearing a pair of handcuffs!
This scene... It was just...
Melody Monroe didn’t know how to describe what she was feeling.
’Earlier, they asked him to confirm his identity with her, so why didn’t he?’
’Does he think it’s fun to be handcuffed and brought to the police station?’
’The great President Fairchild, locked in this little room for almost a whole day?!’
Melody Monroe could tell from Evan Fairchild’s expression that he was in a terrible mood!
She never would have imagined that this person was Evan Fairchild!
Evan Fairchild stood up and walked toward Melody Monroe. Seeing the astonished look on Ian Monroe’s face, the gloom in his heart instantly vanished!
"Ask your mommy if I’m a bad guy."
Ian Monroe hugged his mother and refused to say a word.
Melody Monroe’s head was spinning! ’Does Evan Fairchild know Ian’s identity?!’
She knew that if Evan Fairchild wanted to find something out, there was nothing he couldn’t uncover.
