Chapter 94: Tell His Father To Give Money

Chapter 94: Tell His Father to Give Money

Cheyenne snapped out of those painful memories and fixed her gaze on the handsome little guy in front of her, giving a light smile.

"You are so sweet. Tell me, what's your name?" She reached out and held the little one in her arms.

The latter did not resist, and even took the opportunity to kiss her on the face.

The kissing noise made by Louis was loud enough for Iker on the second floor corridor to hear it. He couldn't help but have a gloomy expression on his face.

How could someone who casually kissed a girl be his younger brother?

Cheyenne's cheeks could still feel the kid's damp and tender touch, causing her to burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, he's really too cute. Master Iker, can I borrow your little brother to play with for two days?"

Upon hearing this, Lewis furrowed his brow and earnestly retorted, "Fairy sister, I cannot be lent to you because my mommy will worry."

But he also liked this pretty lady in front of him, what should he do?

The little one suddenly thought of something and looked at Cheyenne with anticipation in his eyes, "Sister, would you like to come and live with us? This way, my older brother and I can see you every day."

'Wait, it's his business if he wants to see this woman, why should he get me involved?

"If you keep messing around, Lewis Todd, I swear I'll toss you out, you believe me?" Iker threatened, her tone firm.

Lewis Todd was the boy's full name. He was well aware that if his big brother called him by his full name, it meant that his big brother was angry.

The little guy immediately sat up straight and snuggled into Cheyenne's arms, but his round eyes glanced towards the second floor.

"Okay, Master Lewis, I can't stay at your house. And I'm not your big brother's girlfriend either. He's so fierce and has a bad temper..."

The little guy nodded in agreement and replied in a childish voice, "Yes."

Iker listened to her evaluation of him and his expression grew increasingly grim.

With a cold humph, he said, "Hurry up and come here! Don't forget why you're here."

Upon hearing this, Cheyenne made a face at him.

After placing Lewis on the sofa, she patted his cute little head before leaving.

"Master Lewis, I'm leaving now. Let's play again next time."

"Okay, sister."

Iker relaxed his eyebrows as he wondered why he didn't send this little thing back to Erica's place earlier.

He only kept Lewis here for a few days because the latter had been coughing due to catching cold these past few days which made him feel sorry for him.

He would have sent him back if it wasn't for that reason anyway.

"Tanner, ask the servants to send him back later, and remind them not to forget asking for his food expenses."

"Yes, Master Iker."

Cheyenne was surprised to hear that. Her red lips parted slightly as she spoke, "You charge for meals? That's your own brother."

"Blood is thicker than water, but money talks," Iker replied.

Cheyenne couldn't help but think to herself that he was being unfair to his brother. After all, they were family.

Soon after, Kai arrived with Erica by his side. She wore a white dress and high heels and looked stunningly beautiful.

When Erica saw Cheyenne, her eyes flashed with displeasure before she put on a fake smile and said, "Miss Lawrence, how are you feeling? We're so sorry about what happened last time. It was our fault that you got hurt."

Kai walked up to her and shook her hand. "Don't worry about it too much, Mr. Todd. I'm feeling much better now."

Cheyenne had heard that the snake had been killed and its gall had been taken out by her grandfather, which already dissipated any resentment she felt.

"Alright then," Erica said as she picked up their son and turned to Kai. "We should be going now; we have some important matters to attend to."

Kai nodded apologetically at Cheyenne before saying goodbye. "Thank you for taking care of things here at Iker's Estate. Miss Lawrence; my wife and I will make it up to you next time."

"You're welcome, Mr. Todd."

The three turned to leave, with Lewis waving goodbye to Cheyenne in Erica's arms.

"Bye, pretty missy!" he sweetly said.

"Okay."

Erica frowned slightly and seemed to be unhappy with Lewis's closeness to Cheyenne.

"Alright, be quiet now and don't disturb your big brother," Erica said.

The little one immediately covered his mouth with his hand and nodded. "Mommy, I know," he whispered. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

As the sound of their footsteps faded away into the distance, only Cheyenne and Iker remained in the room staring awkwardly at each other.

"What did you want to talk to me about earlier?"

Cheyenne suddenly remembered her purpose for coming and patted her head. "Oh right! I almost forgot."

She took out a medical report and two pictures from her bag and handed them over to Iker. "This is your blood analysis report, while this is a blood test report of another deceased person. They show similar drugs are used, which have a matching rate of 95%."

The pictures showed images of the deceased before his death.

Iker glanced at them briefly before looking back down at the reports' conclusion: Datura stramonium.

"I don't know this person," Iker confirmed.

"His background seems ordinary and there's no apparent connection to the Todd family, but what's suspicious is why someone would pay so much to harm a regular taxi driver."

The Datura stramonium is a tropical herbaceous plant from the Congo Basin in South Africa. It's poisonous all over and touching it will cause contamination. Only the perennial poison gas in the rainforest can cultivate this characteristic.

It only blooms for seven days during May each year, and it has a short flowering period.

If you want to pick it, you have to do so within those seven days.

During summer, when the rainforest floods, not only are there giant pythons in the river but also animals on shore become more active. Picking it becomes even more difficult.

Without sufficient funding support, it would be difficult to achieve this goal.

Iker was a war god and heir of the Todd family fortune, so it wasn't hard to understand why someone would spend so much money using it against Iker.

But why would someone spend so much harming that taxi driver?

According to his information, he had been in Akloit all along without any opportunities of coming into contact with Datura stramonium.

"I understand. I'll have someone investigate," Iker closed his files and spoke solemnly.

"His parents are also in Akloit now. I've asked my friends to approach them both hoping for some good news."

Cheyenne let out a sigh and ended their conversation.
