NovelOnlineChapter 1663 Sunny quickly walked into the mansion and saw his grandparents gloomily sitting in the living room.
"Grandpa, Grandma! Haven't you found my dad yet?" Beatrice and Cedric raised their heads, and their eyes lit up for a second when they saw Sunny coming in.
Beatrice shook her head helplessly and said, "No. We still don't know where he is." Sunny frowned and asked, "Have you called the police?" "The police just left. They told US we would have to wait for forty-eight hours before a missing person report could be filed," answered Cedric.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSunny panicked at this. "What about Lucas? Where is he now?" Beatrice and Cedric both sighed at the mention of their eldest grandson.
"Your brother is upstairs. Can you ask him if his men have found any leads?" Sunny swiftly rushed upstairs and knocked on Lucas' door.
It was not even one second later when Lucas said, "Cin." Only then did Sunny dare to open the door and go in. "Lucas, what's the situation now? Have your people found Dad yet?" Lucas was sitting on the sofa smoking, causing the room to reek of smoke.
Sunny coughed a few times in discomfort. "Lucas, you rarely smoke. Why are you smoking now? Talk to me! Have your people found Dad?" Lucas raised his eyes to look at Sunny. "I didn't send anyone to look for him." Sunny was stunned. "What? You didn't send anyone to look for Dad?! But why? The servants have searched the B whole place, and they still can't find Dad, so he can't be at home! You must send your people to find him outside!" Lucas took a puff from his cigarette and blew out a cloud of smoke before saying, "Go to his room. There's a secret door behind the bookshelf. The door will open if you move the seventh book counting from the left side on the third shelf. See if he's inside." Sunny stared at him in surprise. He never heard of a 'secret door" in their hbefore.
Without asking any more questions, he went to do as he was told.
Lucas watched his brother go out and continued to smoke silently. He was beyond exhausted.
A few minutes later, Sunny's shout could be heard coming from Maxwell's room. "Someone get over here right now! | found Dad!" Lucas was indifferent when he heard the commotion outside. He just raised his eyes and looked at the painting hanging beside his bed. It was painted by his mother before she left home.
The servants downstairs ran upstairs quickly when they heard Sunny's shouts.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBeatrice and Cedric also stood up excitedly. With the help of their servants, they went upstairs to check on the situation.
Upstairs, they saw a very drunk Maxwell passed out in a crumpled heap on the ground of a small dark room behind the bookshelf. He was surrounded by empty wine bottles, and the air reeked of strong alcohol.
When Beatrice and Cedric saw their son, they first breathed a sigh of relief, then becworried again.
"Quick! Go get him smedicine and water!" "Sunny, carry your father to his bed! This room is too small. I'm afraid he'll suffocate from lack of oxygen if he stays there any longer!" "Yes, Grandma, Grandpa!" said Sunny.
He picked up his drunk father and quickly brought him to his bed.
Then, Sunny asked doubtfully, "Grandpa, why is there a secret room in my dad's room? | never knew about it. Do you?"
