Something is not right!

"Brother, you mentioned that my uncle Noah stepped back from his political activities after returning from B island?" Scarlett voiced her confusion. It was inconceivable for her to believe that her uncle would simply quit politics without any valid reason.

Rex was taken aback by Scarlett\'s lack of knowledge about this development. He wondered why Noah hadn\'t informed her about his decision.

Perplexed by Scarlett\'s apparent cluelessness, Rex continued, "Yes. Well, Noah Withers made his last public appearance a few weeks ago when he announced his decision to step back from his political activities. I can send you the video so you can review it later..."

Scarlett nodded, her mind consumed by numerous questions regarding her uncle\'s sudden departure from his political responsibilities.

The situation weighed heavily on Scarlett\'s mind and was starting to give her a headache. She strongly sensed something was amiss, especially since her uncle had never mentioned his decision to her.

"Sister, is something bothering you?" Rex asked, noticing the worried look in her eyes.

Scarlett didn\'t respond immediately but locked her gaze with Rex\'s, searching for the right words to convey her confusion. The more she delved into her thoughts, the more she realized there was no plausible explanation for her uncle\'s actions.

What frightened her the most was the unsettling possibility that someone had forced her uncle into retreating from politics and returning to the Withers family. And if that really happened, then there\'s only one person who can do it, Jude Withers.

"Yes, I\'m just confused. Why didn\'t Uncle Noah inform me about this?" Scarlett\'s eyes pierced Rex\'s as she expressed her concern. "He called me a few days ago but never mentioned anything about that. I\'m starting to worry about him..."

"Maybe it wasn\'t something he felt the need to share with you?" Rex answered.

Scarlett shook her head slowly, continuing, "No, you don\'t understand. My uncle\'s political career is his passion. He has dedicated himself to that field, even prioritizing it over the family business. Every time he calls me, he would talk about it..."

Rex fell into silence, absorbing Scarlett\'s words.

After a moment, he nodded in agreement. "Well, you\'re right. These are odds. If I recall correctly, he even severed ties with the Withers family, didn\'t he?"

"Yes!" Scarlett responded quickly. "That\'s precisely why I feel that something isn\'t right. Why would he suddenly choose to stop? And why would he decide to return to the family now?" Scarlett asks Rex, seeking answers despite knowing he can\'t answer her confusion.

"I see!" Rex responded, his suspicion growing, mirroring Scarlett\'s own. "Why don\'t you call him now and ask him directly? Perhaps by speaking to Noah Withers, we can uncover the exact reason behind his actions."

"That\'s the problem!" Scarlett took a deep breath. Her frustration could be heard in her tone. "Uncle Noah specifically asked me not to contact him. He said he would be the one to reach out to me."

"That\'s weird. Why would he do that?" Rex\'s conviction in his suspicions intensified. Something was definitely amiss with Noah Withers.

"Because Uncle Noah worries that Jude Withers will discover my whereabouts!" Scarlett explained helplessly.I think you should take a look at

"Alright, don\'t worry. I\'ll ask Seven to try and contact Noah Withers and urge him to call you," Rex offered, wanting to assist in any way he could.

"Thank you, brother, but there\'s no need for that," Scarlett replied, pausing to take a deep breath. "Well, Jude Withers is already aware that I\'m staying here. Tonight, I\'ll try to reach out to Uncle Noah myself..." Scarlett asserted with determination.

"That son of a bitch knows you\'re staying here? In the Royal Garden?" Rex exclaimed in utter shock.

Scarlett nodded and proceeded to recount the incident she had experienced when assassins sent by Jude Withers attempted to capture her. She also informed Rex about the Gold Team and their mission, tailing her to kill her mother.

Rex\'s posture straightened, and he felt anger coursing through his veins. The intensity of his emotions could be heard in his voice. "Damn it! Sis, let\'s go after them. Jude Withers makes me want to tear someone apart!" His voice was as cold as ice, and his eyes fierce looking at Scarlett.

Scarlett held him back, preventing his impulsive actions that could potentially bring ruin upon the Withers family with a single strike. She had her own reasons for restraining him and urging caution at that moment.

"How much longer do we have to wait?" Rex asks, his patience wearing thin. He yearned to take drastic measures, well aware that they had a spy in the Withers organization who could potentially ruin them with a single strike.

"No, brother! Not yet. My mother..." Scarlett\'s voice trailed off as Rex raised his hand to stop her. His gaze pierced hers.

"Your mother, we will find her soon. I have a significant lead to share with you..." Rex suddenly remembered the DNA test results he held in his hand.

"You discovered a significant clue about my mother?" Scarlett\'s eyes widened in shock, her heart racing with anticipation for the information Rex held.

If she knew her mother\'s whereabouts, nothing would stop her from seeking revenge on Jude Withers for what he had done to her family on B Island.

"No, sister. I haven\'t found any clues about your mother," Rex said, causing Scarlett\'s shoulders to slump in disappointment. He quickly added, "...However, I have found your birth father!"

Scarlett suddenly froze, her eyes locked onto Rex. Her mind went blank as if consumed by an invisible black hole which made her in a daze for a few seconds.

She tried to speak several times, but no words escaped her lips.

\'Found my father? How can he be so sure?\' confusion now clouded her thoughts. Yet, a sense of intrigue and amusement also stirred within her.

"Hahaha, brother, don\'t try to cheer me up! Just thinking about my mother matters makes me dizzy... Oh, please stop it!" Scarlett said with a wry smile.

Rex remained silent, handing her an envelope. "You can see for yourself!"
