Chapter 388 Try

When Chandler thought about the fact that Meryl had been living in Dalton’s territory recently, his face turned pale.

Chandler’s eyes were cold.

“Has she been back to the Stone Villa in the past two days?”

Walter said, “On the day you went on a business trip to Griffore, Mrs. Aniston came back to the Stone Villa for dinner. And she hasn’t been to the Stone Villa since then.”

Half an hour later, a car stopped outside the Stone Villa.

Chandler stepped out of the car and saw John in the garden, leaning on a rocking chair and enjoying the sunshine.

Seeing Chandler’s car parked at the gate, John immediately stood up. “Chandler, why are you here?”

Walter held the gifts and said, “Mr. Aniston went on a business trip to Griffore some time ago and didn’t come to visit you. He happened to be free today, so he came here. These are the gifts he brought from Griffore.”

John quickly took the gift boxes from Walter’s hand and said, “Welcome. Mom, Chandler is here!”

As he spoke, John led the way.

Bianca came down from the second floor and saw Chandler.

She asked, “Chandler, where’s Meryl? Why didn’t she come back with you?”

Bianca felt strange not seeing Meryl.

“I asked her to come home for dinner yesterday, but she refused. I thought Meryl would come along with you.”

John also complained, “Mom, I sent a message to Meryl, saying that I would be going back to school in a few days and I probably wouldn’t see her for half a year, but she replied coldly!”

Chandler frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

Even if Meryl wanted to abandon Chandler, she didn’t have to be so cold to her relatives.

Especially John and Meryl had always had a good relationship, but she didn’t even want to see him.

“John, may I use your phone?” Chandler said.

Without hesitation, John quickly took out his cell phone and handed it to Chandler.

Chandler had graciously given John a limited–edition luxury car.

Of course, John was willing to let Chandler use his cell phone.

Chandler clicked on Meryl’s number and dialed it. The phone rang and then hung up.

He quickly got a message: [What?]

Chandler saw the message, did not reply, and called again.

She then replied: [I have a cold, and my throat is hoarse. If you have anything to say, send me text messages.]

Chandler imitated John’s tone: [Meryl, you said that you would give me a set of figurines before I went to school. You didn’t forget it, did you?]

This time, Meryl’s reply was obviously not that fast.

Five minutes passed, and Meryl didn’t respond.

Chandler called her again.

Meryl said slowly: [I’ll have someone send those home later.]

John kept paying attention to what Chandler was doing with his cell phone.

Seeing Chandler mention the figurines, John suddenly became excited. “Chandler, how do you know I like figurines?”

Chandler looked John up and down. His eyes seemed to be saying, “You could not hide what you like from me.”

Chandler returned the phone to John with a look of understanding.

He tried it out just now, and the other party showed their true colors.

The person who sent the messages using her phone was someone else.

A mocking smile appeared on Chandler’s face. He had never thought about it in this way before.

There was a high probability that Dalton had Meryl under his control.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t let her use her phone.
