C19 The Storm!

"I'll go and tell the police that the fake money isn't my father's. Tell them to let my father go," I said to my mother.

"Priscilla, don't go yet. Where did those fake bills come from? What's going on?" Mother asked.

I didn't dare to say Carlton's name. If I said it, Mother would definitely look for him.

I couldn't let my family come into contact with that devil. I couldn't let him hurt my mother.

"It was given to me by a friend. He might not know that it was fake. I'll go find him and ask him about it," I said with a trembling voice.

"Who is your friend? Why would he give you fake money? If he did it on purpose, we have to tell the police," Mother said.

"I... I don't know if he did it on purpose. I'll go and ask him about it first. Mom, don't worry. I'll definitely save my father. I won't let him go to jail."

"Is your friend trying to harm you on purpose? Or should I go with you? Or we can just tell the police and let them investigate," Mother said anxiously.

"Mom, don't worry. I'll go and find out about the situation first. If it doesn't work, we'll call the police. In any case, I won't let anything happen to my father. Take Elmo with you and I'll be right back. Before I come back, no matter who calls you, you can't go out. You have to protect Elmo's safety," I reminded her.

"Okay then, I got it. Be careful. If you really can't handle it, just call the police."

"Okay, I got it."

I left the house and drove to the clubhouse again.

As soon as the car was parked, a waiter came over and glanced at my license plate. After confirming it, he handed me a slip of paper, "Ms. Coffey, right? This is what Mr. Scott asked me to give you."

Scott was Carlton's driver. Ortiz had guessed that I would come back to find him.

I took the slip of paper and saw an address on it.

I got back into the car and drove towards the address.

The destination was the most expensive villa in Qolginia, 'Beautiful World Courtyard'. When I arrived at the entrance of the villa district, the security guard looked at my license plate and saluted me. "Ms. Coffey, right? Please go to Mansion Number One."

Beautiful World Courtyard was the most expensive building in Qolginia, and Mansion Number One was the most expensive villa in the area.

It occupied the widest area and had the highest floor. All the buildings were at least five hundred meters away from it. Under the protection of a group of villas that were much shorter than it, it was like a small palace.

There were rumors in the market that Mansion Number One had been sold for 58 billion dollars. It was the most expensive villa in Qolginia; there was no other villa like it.

When I drove into the villa district, I also felt that the villas around it were just decorations for Mansion Number One. This building seemed to be developed for Mansion Number One.

I parked my car in front of the first floor and got out of the car. I saw three big words hanging on the fence of the villa: Castlewoods Manor.

It felt like the name was a little strange, and it was hard for me to understand what it meant.

I got out of the car and was about to press the call button when the door slowly opened. Scott, Carlton's subordinate, stood in the middle of the door.

I was about to speak when he coldly said, "Mr. Ortiz is in the gym."

Following the direction that Scott was pointing at, I arrived at the gym and saw Carlton sweating heavily on the treadmill.

He probably expected that I would come. He looked up at me and continued to run.

"Why did you give me fake money? Why did you hurt my dad?" I roared at him.

He jumped off the treadmill and approached me drenched in sweat. "Take off your clothes and go up!"
