Chapter 1000
“What did you say?” Sophia didn’t hear her clearly.
“It’s nothing,” Eileen said as she tried to widen her eyes to look at Peter’s face as she had slight nearsightedness.
However, when she was able to get a better look, she gasped. “Mr. Peter Hall!”
Peter instantly looked at the bushes. “Who’s there?!”
Sophia was speechless as she pinched Eileen’s waist. “What are you doing?”
“I… Couldn’t help myself!” Eileen said regretfully.
“Come out!” Peter walked toward the bushes.
Eileen stood up with her head lowered. “Haha… What a coincidence, Peter.”
“Eileen Reid?” Peter was genuinely surprised. “What are you doing here? Why are you hiding in the bushes?”
“Well…” Eileen tried to play the fool as she looked around. “I have a lot of free time lately and I’m wandering
around, trying to explore new sceneries.”
Peter then pointed at the bushes. “Are you telling me that there are nice sceneries around here? Are you going

“I’m not fooling you!” Eileen said with a sweet smile. “You misunderstood me, Mr. Hall.”
“There’s another person there!” Peter said coldly.
Eileen pulled Sophia. “Stop hiding. He saw you.”
Sophia stood up while covering her face. “I don’t know anything. Ms. Reid dragged me here.”
Eileen almost couldn’t smile anymore.
Peter stared at Sophia for a moment before saying, “I know you. You work for Conrad.”
Sophia put down her hands and said, “Yes. You have quite the good memory.”
“Why are you hiding here?” he said with a blank face and then looked at the Thomas. residence. “Who are you
looking for?”
“No one. We’re just taking a walk,” Sophia said.
“Eileen,” Peter said as he glared at her. “Tell me.”
Eileen suddenly felt unsure of what to do.
Sophia had just told her that Peter helped Esme assume her new identity.
Which meant that Peter was helping Esme!
He harassed Fia together with that woman!
But… Peter had helped her in the past.
It was a debt that she had to repay. She owed him one.
“Peter, I don’t want to lie to you. What’s your relationship with Britney Thomas?”
Peter was silent for a few seconds before saying, “We’re done with each other already.”
“You sure?” Eileen said as she took a step forward. “I believe you. I hope that you won’t lie to
me”
“Believe whatever you want. I don’t owe you anything,” Peter said before going over to press
the bell.
Sophia pulled Eileen over and stood at the side. She whispered, “Let’s observe.”
The Thomases’ maid came out and asked Peter over the gate, “Who are you looking for?”
“I’m here to see Barbara.”
She was surprised. The madam told her to tell him that Britney wasn’t at home if Peter was looking for her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, she never mentioned what to do if it was Barbara he wanted to see instead.
“Please wait a moment. I’ll need to forward this question.”
Peter smiled coldly. He knew what kind of games they were playing.
After a short while, the maid came out and said, “They’re both not in.”
“Are
you sure?” Peter’s tone was a bit cold.
“Yes! If you don’t believe me, you can give them a call.”
Peter had no words. If Barbara would pick up his calls, he wouldn’t be here looking for her.
The maid went back inside afterward.
Eileen then asked, “Why are you here asking for their eldest?”
“It has nothing to do with you.” Peter turned around and was going to get back up into the car after glancing at her.
At this time, a sports car approached them and stopped.
Shortly after, Esme got out of the car.
