The Hidden Duke Heir Chap 44
Charles was still waiting in his office until 9 pm. He deliberately did not return to the apartment because he was trying to avoid Daniel. He couldn't help it if Daniel found out he had nothing to do and was staying at the apartment. Daniel would think he had so much work that he couldn't have fun together tonight if he were at the office. "Why isn't Rose here yet? Did she have any trouble getting here? She said she'd be here by noon, but it's already 9pm and she hasn't come yet, and she hasn't even given me any news." Charles was talking to himself. He walked back and forth in front of his desk. Until now, he had not replied to Daniel's message because he did not want to make the wrong decision. He wanted to wait for Rose before deciding whether he should meet with Daniel. However, what he was experiencing was not what he had imagined. Daniel had been calling him since this afternoon, which bothered him greatly. Half an hour passed, and there was still no news about Rose. His c

Daniel looked at the unconscious Charles and the document he was holding. His eyes implied immense regret. "I'm sorry, Charles. I have to do this because my sister is in danger. Jonah will not let my sister go if I fail again. I think, when you wake up, you will be very disappointed to have a friend like me. I'm sorry. I hope you'll find a better friend than me in the future." With tears in his eyes, as he mourned the friendship that would be destroyed, Daniel began to organize the documents that had received Charles' fingerprints. It was the only thing he could do because getting a signature directly from his best friend was impossible. If he forced himself to do that, Charles would be suspicious and return to ask questions and learn about what happened. Daniel prepared to leave after everything was done, including correcting Charles' position, who was drooping on the sofa. He walked towards the apartment door with quick steps and had to meet Jonah as soon as possible so his sister

Charles woke up from his stupor. He looked around and was grateful to see that he was still in the apartment. He exited the sofa and walked to his room to clean himself up. While in the room and preparing to shower, Charles gasped as he remembered what had happened before he passed out. He remembered that Daniel had done something, and his adrenaline spiked when he saw a bit of ink on his finger. "What did Daniel do?" Charles didn't go into the bathroom. He ran to the sofa, the last place he remembered before he passed out. Upon arrival, Charles was surprised to see Rose tidying up his living room, including throwing away the pizza and soft drinks Daniel had brought in last night. "Rose? Are you here? Why didn't you come to see me yesterday? Daniel! You were right about him. He did something to me yesterday, Rose!" Charles explained excitedly. "I know, Mr. Charles." Charles' eyes rounded. "You know? How?" He answered in a low voice but still audible to Rose. "When I got the evi

Damian came to Dominic's house on the weekend. He wanted to provide information on Isabella's recent change of attitude. "Mr. Dominic, this file contains information about the activities carried out by Isabella in recent days. It also contains some of the most probable reasons for your beloved's change of attitude." Damian placed the document in his hand on the table."I don't have time to read the document, Damian. Just tell me what it says." Dominic replied. His gaze was still focused on the laptop screen displaying the stock profits of Browzka's company. "Yes, Sir." Damian took the document back and read it. "Based on my research, in recent days Isabella has been going to a house owned by a 45-year-old man. The man's identity is a closely guarded secret, but I was able to take a photo of the man and upon investigation, his name is Jonah Duke." Dominic stopped what he was doing. "Jonah Duke? Is he related to Charles?" Damian nodded. "Yes, Sir. Jonah Duke is the younger brother o

Isabella hummed in her apartment. Today, she will go to see Dominic to break their relationship. Although the money Dominic gave was quite large, the task her boyfriend gave was also not playful. So, instead of taking the trouble to approach Charles and accepting the harsh words thrown by her ex-boyfriend, it was better for her to break up with Dominic and return to her father. Jonah was a very good father to her. Isabella knew that Jonah would not be that kind to anyone else. Therefore, she felt honored to be pampered by her father. While she was busy getting dressed, her cell phone rang. Isabella peeked at the notification screen and deliberately answered it when she saw Jonah's name listed as the person calling her. "Hello? What's up, Dad?" Isabella asked. "Have you broken up with Dominic yet?" "Today, I will come to his company to break off our relationship. Dad, take it easy, don't worry too much." Isabella chuckled for a moment. She felt amused when Jonah spoiled her too m

Andrew walked back and forth in his room. Several days had passed since Charles had come to the house and threatened him not to contact Daniel again. And sure enough, Daniel was no longer reachable. His number was never active, and it made him very frustrated. "Where are you, Daniel? Do you not care about your studies anymore? Do you think I'm just playing around with my threats?" Andrew muttered. He tried to contact Daniel again but to no avail. Let alone calls, and his messages were never even replied to. "Akh! What an asshole!" Andrew threw his cell phone on his bed. He was furious because, with Daniel gone, he couldn't get any evidence of Charles' involvement in his son's death. After walking around the room for a few minutes, Andrew finally got tired and sat on the bed. He massaged his forehead, then thought of a new plan to find the evidence so that he could put Charles, who he considered to be Deon's murderer, away."Looks like I have to keep an eye on Charles for a few day

Andrew came to Damian's house the same day. He couldn't wait to get an explanation from his son's best friend. His heart was disappointed, and he felt the pain of knowing what had happened to his son.Andrew drove for a long time, as Damian's house was quite far from Charles' company. He drove fast like the world would fall apart if he didn't see Damian soon. Arriving in front of Damian's house, Andrew rudely rang the bell. He also banged on the door to let his host know he couldn't wait any longer. "Uncle Andrew? What business do you have at my house?" Damian asked in surprise as he looked at Andrew like he was crazy. He had just returned from the convenience store and was shocked to see Andrew at his doorstep, banging on the door. "You! Come here! I have something to ask you!" Andrew immediately pulled Damian's hand. "What is it, Uncle?" Damian gasped as Andrew asked him to open the door. Luckily, he lived alone in the house. There would have been an uproar if he was still livi

In his office, Charles focused on the screen that showed Damian and Andrew in Erik's room. It seemed that Erik had told Andrew everything about Deon's death. It can be seen from the gesture of the middle-aged man who looks emotional after hearing the explanation from Erik. Andrew tried to leave when his anger was overwhelming.Charles shook his head. After hearing Erik's explanation, he knew what Andrew wanted to do, but of course, he shouldn't be rash in facing Dominic. The man was not an easy opponent to eliminate, let alone eradicate.Suddenly his cell phone rang; Charles glanced at the cell phone he placed next to his laptop. It was Damian who called. Without further delay, Charles immediately received the call."We've met Erik. Uncle Andrew has found out everything. He was furious and wanted to kick the man's ass, but I quickly restrained him. He couldn't afford to be rash so I started working on a plan to get revenge on Dominic," Damian said once the call was connected."Yeah. J
