Chapter: 518
"Calm down, Grandpa, these rules are for our family. The relationship between Ren and me isn�t confirmed yet, so don�t scare her away!� Justin finally decided to help Renee out.
"Don�t listen to this old fogey. You can stay up late if you want to, or sleep in if you want to. You just have to live freely and happily as my wife. There is no need to be so disciplined!� Justin said dismissively.
His words received the enthusiastic support of Sophia. �Yes, he�s right! Ren and Justin can live however they like it as long as they are happy; We won�t interfere.�
Austin�s face turned serious, but before he could say anything, a maid ran into the room. She looked around wildly and shouted, �Francine�s gone!�
"She disappeared?� Austin slammed the cutlery on the table and demanded, �What happened?�
"When I went to start my shift this morning, there was nobody in the room. The lock wasn�t damaged � it�s like she disappeared into thin air!�
"What nonsense. Do you not want your tongue anymore?� Austin scoffed.
Jack asked, �Unless she was let go, how could a person disappear out of thin air?�
The maid suddenly realised something and shouted, �The new maid� It must be that new maid!�
"What�s all this gibberish? Talk properly!� Sophia said sternly.
The maid took a deep breath and explained, �There was a new maid last night, wearing a uniform of a better quality than ours. She said that she was sent over to keep an eye on Francine, so I brought her to the room and left her there alone� I did not expect that both the new maid and Francine would disappear like that! So the person who helped Francine escape must be here!"
"How dare she?!� Austin was fuming, feeling like the authority of the Baldwin family had been challenged. He said furiously, �Who is that reckless person? How dare she sneak into the Baldwin mansion and do this right under my nose?! She really does not take us seriously! Start an investigation immediately, and when you find her, break her limbs right away. She has to know that the Baldwin family cannot be messed with!�
Jack nodded and said to the head of the soldiers stationed around them,� What are you waiting for? Send a team to barricade the whole place and carry out a thorough search. We must catch the woman who dares to fight against the Baldwin family!�
Renee buried her head in her arms the whole time, not daring to take a breath. She was afraid that the maid would recognize her.
She watched the soldiers leave in the armoured vehicles and gulped anxiously. �Are these people for real? Must they be so serious? If they find out that I was the traitor who let go of her, would they really break my limbs?�
Actually, when Renee thought about it, it wasn�t that surprising. The Baldwin family were used to dictatorship, and used harsh punishments to reinforce their power in Sutton and the entire land of Jaseraux to expand their reign.
�Let�s eat first. We don�t want bad news spoiling Ren�s breakfast,� Sophia said quickly to the men.
The family agreed, and before they ate, they stood up and sang the national anthem in a loud and clear voice.
Renee was so frustrated by all their rules. �No wonder Haze ran away years ago to become a hacker. I would escape as well if I were him!�
Renee was actually planning to confess to the Baldwin family after breakfast and ask for their forgiveness. After that, she would leave this place. The sooner, the better! JrNovels.com
