Chapter 1132 Let's Drink the Interlocked-Cup Wine!

From just now until now, this little woman had always thought that he had lowered his stance, and that was why Zhou Minsheng had agreed to side with them. But that wasn't the case. He had just given Zhou Minsheng two options. The other party was a smart person and knew how to weigh the pros and cons and choose the path that was most beneficial.

As for the tea cup falling to the ground, Zhou Minsheng was lying in bed and couldn't move. It was just an unintentional act, and he had no intention of bowing his head to the other party.

Freya raised her head and looked deeply into his dark eyes. She raised her hand and gently stroked the newly grown stubble on his chin with her fingertips. Her eyes sparkled with a layer of mist.

"Then tell me, what agreement did you reach with him?"

Bradley grabbed her small hand and kissed it on his lips. "It's nothing much. I just told him about our daughter. Zhou Minsheng is also a father, so he could naturally empathize with me. Maybe he thought it through himself, or maybe he felt that cooperating with us could maximize his interests, so he agreed."

Freya asked curiously, "What did you say about Xin Yao?"

Seeing the little woman instantly turn into a curious baby, Bradley smiled helplessly. "I told him about Xin Yao's future, the responsibilities she has to bear, the things that have happened to her recently, and all the various crises she endured in your womb."

Freya pursed her lips. So this man had resorted to an emotional strategy.

Well, Zhou Minsheng was originally a man who valued love and righteousness. How could he withstand such an emotional attack from him?

"Fine, you're smart!" After saying that, Freya tried to get off the man's lap, but he held her even tighter.

"Don't move. Just let me hold you for a while."

His chin rested on her shoulder, and he took in her scent to his heart's content.

During the time when he was pretending to be disabled in the Royal Garden Mansion, his favorite thing to do was to pick her up and put her on his lap and tease her as much as possible.

At that time, the little woman was easily shy. As long as he made a slight move, he could make her blush and her heart race.

But after he was able to stand up, he rarely did this action. Now that she was sitting on his lap, the excited feeling from the past welled up in his heart again.

"Freya." He called her name in a low voice, and his voice was even more hoarse and magnetic.

Freya met his dark eyes and suddenly said cheerfully, "Honey, let's drink the interlocked-cup wine."

Bradley found it rather novel and agreed without thinking. "Okay."

The two of them held their wine glasses, intertwined their hands, and drank up the wine in the glasses.

Perhaps it was easier to get drunk when drinking during the day, or maybe the wine really had a strong aftertaste. After a few glasses of wine, Freya began to feel a little tipsy.

Her small porcelain-white face was flushed red, just like a ripe peach, which was really endearing.

Freya's consciousness also began to blur. She hugged the man, confessed her love, and kissed him randomly, making the man lose control of his emotions. He pressed her in his arms and kissed her.

Just as the atmosphere was gradually heating up and the situation was getting a bit out of control, the mobile phone placed on the table suddenly rang.

Bradley furrowed his brows deeply.

He originally wanted to ignore it and not answer, but the phone rang again and again.

It was obvious that the other party wouldn't give up until he answered.

His good mood was spoiled, and Bradley was extremely annoyed. He picked up the phone, swiped it open, and said impatiently, "If it's not something extremely urgent, go back to the organization and accept the punishment yourself."

The person on the other end was stunned and didn't speak for a long time. It was clear that he was intimidated by his anger.

After a while, Ying said, "Your Majesty, there is indeed something extremely urgent."

"Speak." It was another cold word.

Ying said, "When your subordinate was at the airport, he found a suspicious woman. Her figure is extremely similar to that of the Lady. However, her face is different. But it doesn't rule out the possibility that she has disguised herself. However, there is no flaw at all on her face. Your subordinate suspects that she may have used a real human skin mask."

"Where is she?"

Suppressing the anger from before, Bradley's face turned a bit grim.

He had sent people to guard the sea, land, and air routes, and had not detected any suspicious people. That meant that the Lady might not have entered the country yet.

Ying was an elite talent he had carefully cultivated and also knew about disguise techniques. If he suspected someone, there was a possibility that the person was really the Lady.

"Your subordinate has already sent people to follow her, but..." Here, Ying's voice paused for a moment before he said, "It's your subordinate's fault for not handling the matter well. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Hearing this, Bradley's face became even more gloomy.

However, the expected anger didn't come. Instead, he said coldly, "Immediately bring up the city's traffic monitoring system. We must catch that person no matter what."

Whether it was the Lady or not, it was better to catch a hundred by mistake than to miss one.

"Yes, your subordinate will arrange it right away."

After hanging up the phone, Bradley pinched the center of his brows.

At this time, Freya had already fallen asleep. He carried her to the room to rest and then went to the study.

Coincidentally, Ying sent over the traffic monitoring video.

Bradley immediately turned on the computer and retrieved the video from his email and started watching it.

From the moment she got off the plane, there was indeed a woman whose eyes looked a bit strange. And she was holding her leather bag tightly in her arms, which looked extremely strange.

Bradley leaned back in his chair, squinted his eyes, and watched quietly. It was not until the woman at the security checkpoint took off her sunglasses and revealed her face that his slender fingers tapped the pause button.

From all aspects, except for her figure, she indeed didn't match the Lady. But that didn't mean that this woman could be cleared of suspicion.

The video soon played to the scene where Ying appeared. The woman took off her glasses again, but there was clearly a hint of impatience in her eyes.

Nothing could be clearly seen from this. But after the woman left the airport, when she slightly bent over to hail a taxi, a necklace slipped out from inside her clothes.

The teardrop-shaped pendant shimmered with an eerie luster under the blinding sunlight.

Bradley's fingers gently tapped on the table, but he repeatedly watched this part of the video.

Was there a possibility that the reason why the other party was holding the leather bag was not to protect the things in the bag, but to divert everyone's attention and prevent them from noticing the necklace around her neck?

That is to say, there was something wrong with this necklace!

Thinking of this, Bradley picked up his phone and called Gabriel directly. "I'll send you a screenshot of a person's appearance. Immediately send someone to search for this person's information."

"Okay."

A reply came from the other end.

Bradley didn't speak. He held the phone in one hand and controlled the mouse with the other, continuing to play the video.

"Also, trace the driving route of the taxi with the license plate number Nan A3355C. I want the route from two hours ago until now."

After saying that, he sent the screenshot of the woman's appearance he had just taken to Gabriel via email.

"Get it done within twenty minutes."

Gabriel said confidently.

Bradley let out an "mm" sound and then ended the call. The taxi disappeared in the downtown area. Now he could only wait for Gabriel's news to determine the other party's true whereabouts.
