“Connor, let's not fret over money. You can get more money by asking, right?” Aida badly wanted him to get another huge sum of wealth and give her a piece of the pie. Over the years, she was too comfortable living a life leeching off his money.

He made a few calls to her, but her phone remained switched off.
“What happened to her? Did she go out? Or is she abducted?” He got in his car and stepped on the accelerator, speeding in the direction of her neighborhood.
