Danton quickly placed the model on the carpet.
Pengpeng and Ziyan reached eagerly for the model, while Tong Airui set Ziyan down. Just as he was about to straighten up, his phone chimed with a message alert.
Tong Airui glanced at Yi Luowa, signaling her to watch the children, then took his phone and headed to his father's study.
The message was sent by Queen Haotian. Tong Airui closed the study door before daring to open it.
Xia Rou is dead, Nancy has escaped!
With those brief eight words, Tong Airui's brows instantly furrowed tightly. After pondering for a moment, he dialed Queen Haotian's number.
"How could something like this happen?"
"It completely caught me off guard. I feared there might be hiccups if I waited too long, so I sent people from the manor to capture Xia Rou directly. Who would have thought—she had already hanged herself, and it's been some time since she died. As for Nancy's escape route... I'm blushing on her behalf. She crawled through a dog hole!"
