Chapter 981: Freya’s Phone Call
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In the corridor.

When Connor asked about Jerrico, Hugo didn’t seem to want to talk about it.

Therefore, Connor decided to be tactful and did not continue to press him for information. Instead, he began to talk about other things.

During the conversation, Connor learned that the Sassman family had undergone a huge change in the few years he had left Dexas.

The Sassman family was now one of the top families in Dexas. Most of the five-star hotels in Dexas were under their banner.

Basically, if one were to mention a luxury hotel in Dexas, one would think of the Sassman family. However, no one expected that two months ago, the future heir of the Sassman family, Jerrico, would suddenly encounter a car accident and become like this.

Hugo was not in the mood to manage the company’s affairs at this time. He stayed in the hospital every day, hoping that his son would wake up.

Of course, Hugo knew who had done this to his son. However, he was afraid of the other party’s power and could not produce any real evidence to directly point to them, so he could only keep quiet and treat it as an accident.

No one expected that the Sassman family, who looked extremely glorious in the eyes of outsiders, would encounter an unprecedented disaster at this moment.

Connor suddenly realized that Wynona had not appeared, so he asked curiously, “Uncle Sassman, where’s Wynona?”

“Wynona is getting married tomorrow, so she’s preparing for the wedding now!” Hugo answered.

“Married?”

After hearing Hugo’s words, Connor’s expression was unusually puzzled. He frowned and asked, “She’s getting married?”

Under normal circumstances, Connor would definitely be very happy. After all, he had always treated Wynona as his biological sister. Wynona’s marriage was also a very important matter to him.

However, what puzzled Connor was that Wynona was getting married at a time when Jerrico was already in such a terrible state. This was really unbelievable.

“Uncle Sassman, where is Wynona’s wedding? I’ll also go over and give her my well-wishes…”

Connor asked Hugo softly.

“Connor, you’d better not go to Wynona’s wedding!” Hugo whispered.

“Why?”

“There’s no why. If I tell you not to go, you won’t go. Not only you can’t go, but everyone in our family won’t go, either!” Hugo said to Connor impatiently.

At this moment, Hugo’s reaction further confirmed Connor’s guess. Connor felt that something must have happened to the Sassman family to cause Jerrico to encounter this car accident.

There must be a secret behind Wynona’s marriage, but now that Hugo was unwilling to say anything, Connor could only investigate these things himself.

Connor looked at Hugo in front of him, and his heart ached because he felt that Hugo looked much older than before.

Hugo felt that his attitude toward Connor was a little too much, so he patted Connor’s shoulder and said softly, “Connor, you’re a good child, but there are some things that I really can’t tell you. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me.”

“Uncle Sassman, I’m fine!”

Connor gently shook his head, then looked at the time and continued, “It’s getting late, so I won’t disturb you anymore. I’ll go back first!”

“Let me send you off…” Hugo hurriedly said.

“No need!”

Connor stopped Hugo and left the hospital alone.

…

After leaving the hospital, Connor called Carlos and asked for the location of his hotel. Then, he took a taxi to the hotel.

After entering the hotel, Carlos helped Connor check in.

Connor lay on the big bed in the hotel alone with mixed feelings in his heart.

He did not expect to encounter such a thing as soon as he returned to Dexas.

The Sassman family must have encountered some big trouble, otherwise Hugo wouldn’t be so helpless.

Connor naturally wouldn’t sit idly by. After hesitating for a moment, Connor took out his phone and dialed Thomas Morgan’s number.

After the phone rang twice, Thomas picked up the call.

“Mr. McDonald, what’s the matter?” Thomas asked softly.

“You’re not going to bed yet, are you?”

Connor asked. At this moment, he didn’t really want to call Thomas lest he impose on him; after all, it was already so late. Although Thomas was his subordinate, he had troubled Thomas too many times. Connor felt a little apologetic.

However, Connor was worried that if he called Thomas tomorrow, it might be too late, so he finally ended up calling anyway.

“Not yet. Mr. McDonald, if you have anything to say, just say it!” Thomas replied with a smile.

After hearing Thomas’s words, Connor took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “I need you to help me investigate Hugo Sassman. His son suddenly got into a car accident some time ago. I believe someone must have deliberately set it up.”

“Alright, I got it!”

Thomas didn’t waste any time and agreed immediately.

“Thank you for your hard work!” Connor said gratefully.

“It’s nothing. Mr. McDonald, please wait for my call!” Thomas replied softly and then hung up the phone.

Connor took a deep breath, then turned off his phone and closed his eyes to rest.

“Ding!”

However, just as Connor closed his eyes, his phone rang again.

Connor casually picked up his phone and glanced at it. It was actually a call from Priscilla.

A trace of excitement flashed across Connor’s eyes as he hurriedly picked up the phone.

“Priscilla, did you find Freya?”

Connor knew that Priscilla must have called him because of Freya. That was why she asked him this question.

“Not yet, but I just received a call…”

Priscilla whispered.

“A phone call?”

Connor was stunned for a moment, then asked with a puzzled expression, “What call?”

“It was an unknown number, but after I picked up the call, the other party did not say a word. I called Freya’s name for a long time, but the other party did not respond to me. However, I have a feeling that the person who called me should be Freya!”

Priscilla said slowly.

After hearing Priscilla’s words, Connor’s expression became even more excited.

If it was really Freya who called Priscilla, it meant that Freya was still alive and hadn’t been harmed.
