Chapter 839
After a moment of silence, Joseph suddenly raised his head and broke out in laughter. “Amazing! Oh,
dear daughter, I’ve underestimated you!”
Arianna just looked at him coldly, not having much of a reaction. She might have had a crushing defeat
today if she had not done this.
After laughing for some time, his phone rang. He was not in the mood to answer it, so he picked it up
after some time. “Hello?”
Suddenly, he raised his head after exchanging a few words with the person on the other end.
Standing up, he asked anxiously as his gaze averted to Arianna, “ What? Are you sure that you
searched everywhere?”

“Okay, I got it. Calm down. No, don’t call the cops. Wait first...”
Then, he hung up and glared at Arianna. His phone was still in his hand. “What have you done to
Damian?”
Arianna had no idea what he was talking about.
“Is there a need for you to put on an act in front of me at this point?” Joseph scoffed, unable to trust her
at all right now. “Did you have to kidnap him now that you’ve pushed all the blame onto him? Where is
he?”
“Kidnap?” Arianna chuckled. “Dad, you said it yourself. The cops will look for him soon because he’s at
fault, so why would I kidnap him, and where could I possibly have hidden him? Also, what good would
that do me?”
She looked calm and did not look like she was lying at all. Joseph stared at her for a long time before
he frowned. “Is it really not you?”
“Was that Elizabeth?” Arianna asked. Who else could it be other than Elizabeth, who cared about
Damian's whereabouts?
“It’s been two days since we last spoke to Damian.” Unwilling to give up, Joseph dialed Damian’s
phone number once again, but the latter’s phone was still switched off. “Elizabeth is going crazy with
worry! We thought we couldn’t contact him because he was in a bad mood, but something must be
wrong if we couldn’t get in touch with him. Everyone is watching him right now, so he can’t go
unnoticed if he was wandering around.”
Hence, the first thought that came to Joseph’s mind was that Arianna had kidnapped Damian, which
was why they could not find him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“That’s right. Everyone’s attention is on him now, so there must be traces of him if he went anywhere!”
Arianna nodded and said, “ What if he just found a place to hide?”
“That can’t be! ” Joseph shook his head firmly and said, “You don’t understand how helpless Damian is.
He could only wait for my updates and for me to help him now, but...”
He did not expect that he could not rectify the situation but made the whole thing even worse instead. It
made him feel distressed in an instant.
“Yeah, he’s helpless, and he can only wait for you. He can only depend on you, or even me but Dad, I
could only rely on myself all this while. Do you know how difficult it was for me to get to where I am
today? You don’t see the effort I put in at all! ”
Her words had no effect on Joseph. Sighing, he said, “What’s the point of saying that now? Ari, did you
really not take Damian away?”
