The Billionaire's Genius Wife

Chapter 530 Roland Gilwynn Furious

After Doctor Robert exits the room, Simon starts to report Allaistar Parker's crimes to Roland. He tells him everything and shows him a few pieces of evidence.

Roland Gilwynn found it incredibly challenging to accept that his brother-in-law, Allaistar Parker, could be capable of committing such heinous acts — planning the murders of both him and his son, Simon. Moreover, Allaistar had orchestrated a scandal to inflict suffering upon Maggie, with the intent of slowly deteriorating her mental well-being.

Hearing such a shocking crime sparked anger in him. This led to his determination to punish Allaistar Parker. Even though Allaistar was his brother-in-law, he would never forgive him.

After a few moments lost in thought, Roland slowly regained his composure. He gazed at Simon, who sat across from him, displaying mixed emotions.

"Simon, you must arrest and severely punish that person. Don't see him as your uncle but as a sinner. He deserves a severe punishment. One that even death cannot adequately repay," Roland said in a slow yet chilling tone.

Simon nodded slightly, acknowledging his father's command. He had already expected his father's furious reaction.

"Father, don't worry. I'll ensure this man faces severe consequences. I'll make sure he pays for his crime for the rest of his life," Simon promised.

"Excellent! I've learned... That despicable Allaistar fled to Paris a few days ago. Send a Royal Guard to capture him. We can't allow him to escape knowing we're aware of his crime..." Even though Roland spoke slowly, there was an intense fire in his eyes. The idea of Allaistar running away troubled him.

"Father, actually, Xander has captured him in Paris. They are now heading to the Royal City," Simon checked his watch before adding, "My brother-in-law and his guard will hand Allaistar over to us in just a few more minutes..." Simon explained.

Roland was surprised to hear this news.

"Xander captured Allaistar? Aren't your sister and Xander in Svalbard? Is she in Paris now?" Roland was surprised to learn they were now in Paris. His last communication with his daughter was a few days ago.

He purposely reduced his communication with Scarlett because he knew she was busy searching for her mother. He didn't want to disturb her, mainly since he was concerned that frequent calls might reveal his health condition and distract her from her mission.

Simon was silent for a moment. 

Although Simon wanted to tell his father about Scarlett having found his mother, he held back because he had promised not to tell their father at Scarlett's request.

After thinking for a while, Simon looked at his father and said, "I heard my sister Scarlett flew to Portugal. She found a lead on Aunty Rosalie there..."

"She found a new lead on Rosalie?" Roland's voice shook with happiness. This was what he wanted to hear.

Suddenly, Roland's eyes lit up upon hearing this news. If Scarlett flew there, it meant Rosalie Withers was still alive, which made him really happy. He felt excited thinking about meeting her again after so many years. 

"Yes, that was the last news I heard. Father, you know my sister Scarlett was very busy!?" Simon asked. 

Roland nods, confirming Simon's words. 

"I didn't dare call my little sister, so I don't know the progress of her search..." Simon felt terrible for lying to his father. It was for his sister's sake, so he had no choice but to lie to his father.

From what he heard, Scarlett and her mother had just landed in this city a few minutes ago but went to a secret location. Even he didn't know where she was now.

"Don't bother your sister. She's on a tough mission," Roland warned Simon. He didn't want Scarlett to be distracted by other things. "And don't tell her about Allaistar's crime. It might stress her out," he continued.

Simon was left speechless by his father's sudden order. If their father knew Scarlett was the one who expos Allaistar's crime, he would be shocked. 

For now, Simon didn't want to share anything about the situation with him, as he had something else pressing to discuss.

"Father, I've kept Aunty and Theo to stay at home for a while. I changed all the workers and guards there—"

"What!? Why did you do that, Simon?" Roland interrupted his son, shocked to learn that his son had confined his sister and nephew at home.

Simon hesitated when he saw his father furious. He explained, "Father, this is for Aunt and Theodor's safety. Suppose Allaistar's people find out we've arrested him. In that case, they'll probably capture Aunt Melinda and Theodor and use them to free Allaistar. At least that's what we thought."

Roland gasped in surprise at Simon's explanation. Anger towards Allaistar clouded his thinking.

"Simon, thanks for thinking more clearly than me. I completely forgot about that," Roland felt relieved to have an intelligent son like Simon as his successor.

"And why did I change all the guards and staff in the house? Because we don't know who Allaistar's people are," Simon continued.

Roland nodded worriedly, "What about the people in the palace? I believe that man has many people inside!?"

"I've found them all," Simon smiled, recalling Scarlett's data. All of Allaistar's people in the palace were on the list. He had removed them and kept them hidden for a while. Once Allaistar entered royal custody, he planned to reveal it all smoothly.

At Fox headquarters, Scarlett appeared tense. She paced back and forth in front of Nine's laboratory door, anxious while waiting for the results of the potion test on her mother.

"What the heck, Scarlett, can you stop pacing? You're making me dizzy," Seven complained.

Finally, Scarlett halted her steps. She glared at Seven, who stood nearby. "Seven, can Brother Nine find the antidote?"

Seven was at a loss for words. Scarlett had asked that question countless times, and he had the answer memorized.

As Seven prepared to respond, the laboratory door opened, and Nine emerged.

With a tense expression, Scarlett hurried towards him. "Brother Nine, please, what are the test results?"
