Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1864

Wilfred furrowed his brow. "Ms. Kinglake, you..."

Because of Anya, Whitney's relationship with him had plummeted to an icy point, almost reaching an irreconcilable state.

Therefore, Whitney never participated in events where the Newhouses were present. Her attendance at this banquet today was akin to the sun rising from the west for Wilfred.

Despite that, her words now were a bit too much.

Wilfred spoke sternly. "I only hold admiration for Ms. Squire."

"Whether you admire her or not, that's something only you know!" Whitney glanced at him disdainfully, her expression serious. "Wilfred, I must remind you—Maisie belongs to Daniel. They'll be getting married soon. Although I'm not entirely pleased with this prospective niece-in-law, I can accept her as long as my nephew likes her.

"But... certain old toads should stop dreaming of enjoying the luxuries of life! These toads should take a good look at their own character by the waterside!"

Wilfred was infuriated but unable to retort openly. He had to swallow his anger.

After a while, he spoke softly. "I know my recent investment in the film and requesting Maisie as the scriptwriter has sparked many speculations. However, Ms. Kinglake, this investment was facilitated by your nephew, don't you know that?"

"What?"

"When I signed the contract with Maisie, Daniel was present!"

Whitney paused, momentarily blanking out.

Wilfred smiled. "Don't assume such despicable intentions from others. I have high regard for Ms. Squire, just as you admired Anya back then—"

"You stop right there!" That name seemed to hit a nerve with Whitney. "You're not worthy of mentioning Anya!"

"It's better if he's dead!" Wilfred roared.

Delilah trembled, staring blankly at him. Although she did not favor Harvey either and considered him a mistake, he was still her biological child. She was quite anxious about Harvey's disappearance.

It was Jodie who had come running to inform her about Harvey. Jodie had mentioned that Harvey had been with Toph all this while, but they were both nowhere to be found after the banquet had ended.

Jodie had also said, "Mom, Harvey has figured out about my background. He isn't with a doctor now. What if he gets emotional and tells the Toph about this? We'll be in big trouble then."

Delilah suddenly found it true. Thus, the worry of their secret being revealed entirely overwhelmed her concern for her son.

"Wilfred!" Delilah pleaded softly, "Can't you... send someone to look for him?"
