Chapter 1136 Found for Her Because She Likes It

Jared Quinn glanced at her excited little face and reached out to pinch her small nose.

Melody Thorne pushed his hand away and snorted coldly. Don’t think that getting a painting can win her over; she won’t stop being mad at him, no way!

Mr. Pan walked into the bedroom and opened a mechanism, revealing a high-hanging scroll painting stored inside.

It was exactly the same as the other two that Melody Thorne had seen, with no difference whatsoever.

“I’ll take it down.”

“Wait,” Melody Thorne took out her phone, “let me take a picture first.”

“This…” Mr. Pan looked at Jared Quinn behind him.

“It’s okay, she’s my wife,” Jared Quinn watched Melody Thorne’s small actions.

The painting was originally sought out because she liked it.

Leon Rivers put away the painting, “I’ll call Harold Chapman’s people over now. There are still a lot of people guarding outside. They probably think we’ll take the painting away, so escaping won’t be easy!”

“Alright.”

Leon Rivers made a phone call. The people outside were already getting restless, probably losing patience, and anyone with a brain could guess that Jared Quinn’s presence here and involvement signaled negotiations with Mr. Pan.

“Brother Jared, I’ll drive to divert them away. You and sister-in-law stay here first,” Leon Rivers grabbed the car keys.

If someone leaves first, they’ll definitely suspect the painting has already been taken away and will chase after his car.

“Alright, be careful.”

“Don’t worry.”

Seeing Leon Rivers driving away with something in hand, almost half of them chased after him.

“Young Master Jared, now that they’re fewer, why not let your people deal with those outside?” A glint flashed in Mr. Pan’s eyes.

“No way, if anything happens to Jared Quinn here, can you bear the responsibility?” Melody Thorne narrowed her eyes.

He clearly wanted Jared Quinn’s men to fight with others, and then he would take advantage and possibly backtrack.

Jared Quinn’s gaze was full of coldness as he looked over, making Mr. Pan shiver and quickly lower his head.

Soon, Harold Chapman arrived with people, and seeing that things were off, those who had been guarding outside quickly ran away.

Jared Quinn took Melody Thorne, not back to Knight Palace Gate immediately, but first to the Quinn Family’s villa. The Lancaster Family must have guessed that the painting was now in his hands, so the security here needed to be ensured before returning to Knight Palace Gate.

“Young Master, you’re back?” The butler was overjoyed seeing them return and immediately walked over with big strides.

“Mm,” Jared Quinn acknowledged, “Has anything happened at the villa recently?”

“No, everything’s fine. Just that Master Timmy was looking for you both at night, but now he’s gone to sleep,” the butler said.

“I’m going upstairs for a look,” Melody Thorne walked upstairs with the painting, placed it in the bedroom, then pushed open Little Chianna’s room, and saw the little one sleeping soundly.

After checking on Little Chianna, Melody Thorne went to Timmy’s room and saw his small quilt bulging; fearing he might suffocate, she gently walked over and lifted the quilt, only to find a pillow beneath and no sign of little Timmy.

“Timmy, Timmy,” Melody Thorne quickly went downstairs, “Butler, did Timmy go downstairs just now? Did he go out?”

“No, I didn’t see young master go out; after he went upstairs, he didn’t come down again,” the butler replied.
