Chapter 7: Don’t Miss Me
"Of course I'm worried!" Philip said, even though he was scared of Daniel's sharp stare. He was set on telling the truth. "Do you know what Rai did? He sneaked into the room alone, sat on the window ledge, and just stared outside. When I asked why he had an umbrella, he said Kate told him that if he jumped with it, he could fly! Who knows what would've happened if I hadn't saw him?"
Daniel's face turned serious, and his eyes burned with anger. "Kate is Rai's aunt. She's always been kind to him. Tell the servants to hide all the umbrellas in the house." He stopped when he realized he was defending Kate.
Philip, annoyed by Daniel's support for Kate, argued, "You should be careful around her. If she means harm, she'll..."
He paused when he saw Daniel's sharp look. With a sigh, he added, "Fine, forget everything I said."
Philip stormed out without waiting for a reply.
As he left, he nearly ran into Ashton, who was standing by the door.
"We have an emergency, Sir!" Ashton said in his deep voice.
As soon as Daniel heard Ashton's words, it made him irritated. He replied sharply, "Speak."
"Someone tampered with the alarm system, causing a security gap for about ten minutes. Our men searched the villa but didn't find anything suspicious," Ashton reported.
"Investigate what happened during those gaps. Strengthen the security system, and send someone to protect Rai!" Daniel ordered.
He felt restless, knowing the Wilson family used the best security system in the world, and such an incident had never happened before.
