Chapter 240
Keith didn’t expect Kara, who seemed innocent and gullible, to notice his unique traits.
“How do you know?” he asked as he frowned. “It’s so obvious! I can see it with my eyes!” Kara pointed at her own eyes and added angrily, “I am not stupid, okay?” Keith was speechless.
Then, he asked for further details, “Do you know the man’s name? What is he working as?” Keith’s string of questions left Kara dumbfounded. “Umm…”
“You stupid girl! If you don’t provide me with the basic information, how am I supposed to find that man for you?”
At first, Keith thought that Kara was more than she seemed. In the end, she was just a clueless five-year- old
Kara was infuriated by Keith’s ruthlessness. She clenched her fists and announced, “If you don’t want to help me, I’ll find out about him myself!” Fuming, she bolted out Keith’s room and went back to her own.
Keith didn’t think too much of what Kara said. He simply thought that she was just throwing a fit. So, he turned to his screen and scanned through some information.
He was looking at some photos published by some of the media outlets.
They were from a banquet attended by many honorable guests from high society. The photo that attracted his attention was one with two people in it. They were Samuel Langford and Cindy Young. If Samuel was willing to bring Cindy to a public event, that meant he had recognized her status as his wife.
In other words, Cindy was no longer under house arrest.
Supposedly, Keith should feel happy and eager to return home.
But Cindy’s face, contorted with hatred, was firmly etched in Keith’s mind.
It seemed Cindy cared more about Samuel than her own son. If Keith could choose, he wouldn’t abandon the life he had now in this small apartment, where he was constantly showered with love and affection. Just the thought about going back to his house made him feel neglected and lonely. For the first time in Keith’s life, he was conflicted to make a decision. The next morning before the sun came up, Tina got up and did her makeup.
However, she wasn’t making herself look pretty. “Mummy, what happened to your face? Why is it so red?” Kara rubbed her sleepy eyes as she walked out of her room. When she saw Tina’s face, she was so shocked that she snapped wide awake. Keith had also just got up from bed. He grimaced and contributed a ruthless comment. “Your face looks like a monkey’s butt!”
The children’s unfiltered criticisms made Tina feel awkward.

Tina was at a loss. She didn’t know what else she could do to ensure her face remained unrecognizable. To protect her identity and her family’s safety, she had no choice but to put on a deformed appearance. After putting on a pair of glasses and a face mask, she drove the children to the kindergarten and left straight for work. While she waited anxiously for Cindy’s arrival, she received a phone call from the kindergarten.

The teacher sounded nervous. “Hello? Is this Kara’s mother?”
Tina heaved out a sigh and asked helplessly, “What’s wrong? Did the kids fight again?” However, the situation was much more serious than that. “You have to come over here right now, ma’am! Your child is missing!”
Stunned, Tina stood up from her seat. “What did you just say?” she yelled, shocked.
