Chapter 1228: 1231: Was It the Old Master?

Maxwell Peary frowned, staring at these posts."For the next couple of days, shut down Madgar Pavilion, and then go to the villa on the hillside. Try not to go out."

The power of rumors is incredibly immense; if these people go crazy, it’s easy for Evelyn Peary to get hurt.

"If you can’t get in touch with her, don’t try. I’ll go find her."

With that, Maxwell Peary closed the webpage and directly called Owen Lewis.

"Help me find out where Silvia Waterborne is, and also, did the old man do this?"

"I’ve been keeping an eye on the old man; he’s not the one who made a move. He can’t even manage his own affairs right now."

Owen Lewis also found it very strange—besides the old man, who else would do this?

"Investigate who did this."

Maxwell Peary instructed with a frown.

"I’ll definitely investigate this. Whoever dared to do this must have some skills."

Otherwise, they wouldn’t be so bold.

The dragon has a reverse scale, and evidently, Maxwell Peary’s reverse scale is his family.

After Owen Lewis said this to him, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

"Uncle?"

Nia Mitchell, who had been sitting beside Maxwell Peary, felt a bit scared and sympathetic seeing him like this.

Right now, Maxwell Peary must be feeling very upset.

"It’s okay, just... I might not be able to watch the sunrise with you."

Maxwell Peary reluctantly gave her a gentle look and reached out to touch her hair.

Hearing Maxwell Peary say this, Nia Mitchell quickly flashed a sweet smile.

"We can watch the sunrise sometime in the future; there’s no rush."

Listening to Nia Mitchell’s words, Maxwell Peary felt a warm feeling in his heart and nodded.

"Big Bro, I’ll notify about the temporary shutdown things now, and later I’ll go home with you."

Evelyn Peary immediately said, then left the private room.

Seeing Evelyn Peary leave, Nia Mitchell reached out and hugged Maxwell Peary.

"Uncle, I believe you can definitely handle this."

Moreover, Silvia Waterborne had already decided to publish this affair before, so she surely could handle it.

Still, not being able to reach Mom right now, this made her very worried.

"Later, I’ll take you and Evelyn Peary home, and then I’ll head out for a while."

Maxwell Peary looked up at Nia Mitchell, feeling that this little Rabina had grown up.

Although often mischievous and a bit helpless, making him feel she’s too young and fears what she might have to face.

Yet at this moment, with Nia Mitchell around, he felt at ease.

"Uncle, you have your things to do. Evelyn Peary and I can go home by ourselves; you don’t need to take us."

"No way, I won’t be at ease if I don’t take you home."

"Uncle, it’s okay, we’re adults and can take care of ourselves."

"No discussion."

Maxwell Peary was just that domineering; no one could change his decisions.

Even if Nia Mitchell talked herself dry, it wouldn’t work.

Seeing this, she could only nod in agreement.

Very soon, Maxwell Peary drove Nia Mitchell and Evelyn Peary towards the villa on the hillside.

"Nia, notify EdbertNia Mitchell to take leave; don’t go to work for the time being."

Upon hearing Maxwell Peary say this, Nia Mitchell was stunned for a moment.

"Why can’t I go to work? Hardly anyone outside knows about our relationship, so this affair won’t affect me."

Nia Mitchell was full of questions.

"Just listen to me, okay? Be good."
