Daddy, You Got The Wrong Mommy-Chapter 289: Damon Hawke Drove Him to His Death

Chapter 289

Chapter 289: Chapter 289: Damon Hawke Drove Him to His Death
On the other end of the phone, Gavin Miles’s chest heaved violently upon hearing Gabriel Miles’s words.
"Was it Damon Hawke who forced him to death? Was it Damon Hawke?"
"Yes, it was Damon Hawke who forced him to death."
Gabriel Miles responded, a trace of ferocity flashing in his eyes.
Gavin Miles said nothing and directly hung up the phone.
Gabriel Miles listened to the dial tone from the receiver and put away the phone.
He knew that his son was very close to James Lee.
Closer than he was to Gabriel, his father.
Because when his son was young, he was either busy with work or busy having an affair with Eleanor Shaw, leaving no time to care for him.
Whereas James Lee had always been by his side, even during every important holiday.
In his son’s heart, James Lee’s status might carry more weight than Gabriel’s.
Now that James Lee is dead, it seems his son has been hit the hardest.
Of course, as a father, he also completely overlooked that there were hidden secrets between his son and his subordinate.
On the other end of the phone.
Gavin Miles stared blankly ahead, suddenly and wildly sweeping everything off the table.
His breathing was rapid, accompanied by roars, and behind the lenses, his eyes were filled with a ferocious look.
Until everything was swept away, he slumped to the ground, slowly picked up a photo frame from the floor, and gently caressed it.
It was a picture of him as a child, sitting on James Lee’s lap, with smiles so jubilant.
Tears dripped onto the lenses, blurring his vision.
Gavin Miles stroked the photo frame, slowly pressing it against his chest, hugging it tightly.
"Uncle!"
...
Hunter Miles’s villa.
Eleanor Shaw paced in the bedroom, unable to settle down.
Beep, a message appeared on the phone.
It was from Gabriel Miles.
The message read: "Eleanor, advise Samantha to stop obsessing over Damon Hawke, he has no intention of marrying her."
Seeing this message, Eleanor Shaw felt anxious and quickly dialed Gabriel Miles’s number.
"Luke, what do you mean?"
Gabriel Miles paused, "Is it convenient to talk?"
"Yes."
"Damon Hawke has been investigating matters from seventeen years ago. James Lee’s suicide was due to this matter. Although he took the blame, I’m afraid Damon Hawke won’t believe it and will continue to investigate."
Gabriel Miles paused and continued, "Recently, he has been getting close to Samantha not out of affection but to stabilize her and investigate the truth through her. This man is too cunning, Samantha must not have any misguided fantasies."
These words made Eleanor Shaw feel a chilling coldness spreading around her.
"Are you saying that James Lee’s suicide was because Damon Hawke found out about the incident seventeen years ago when Lina Quinn was hit, and was involved?"
James Lee acted under Mason Lawson’s orders to do this.
If Damon Hawke finds out, her secret will be exposed!
"Yes. James Lee, loyal to the end, used his death to conclude the matter. But I’m worried that Damon Hawke won’t let it go." Gabriel Miles said.
"James Lee should have done it cleanly, leaving no evidence, right?"
Eleanor Shaw’s face turned pale, seeking reassurance.
"Eleanor, don’t worry, the past is over. Although I instructed James Lee to do it, with him dead, there’s no witness. Now I’m just worried about Samantha, afraid she’ll remain stubborn, fantasizing about Damon Hawke. Damon Hawke is not to be underestimated, I worry his continued investigation will expose Samantha’s connection to us. Thus, she must distance herself from Damon Hawke."
Gabriel Miles analyzed the development of the situation.
Eleanor Shaw felt restless at his words, her mind torn.
"I understand, I’ll go try to convince Samantha."
Though uncertain if she could persuade her daughter.
Lately, Samantha had been in high spirits, harboring great fantasies about Damon Hawke.
Eleanor Shaw, troubled, left the bedroom, heading to Evelyn Miles’s room.
As she passed the study, she overheard voices inside.
"Did James Lee kill himself out of fear? Or due to evidence provided by Damon Hawke? I understand."
It was Hunter Miles’s voice.
He was also concerned with James Lee’s matter?
Eleanor Shaw’s heart skipped a beat, pushing open the study door.
"Henry, who are you talking to on the phone?"
Hunter Miles had just put down the phone, glanced back at Eleanor Shaw, looking somewhat serious.
"I’m investigating something, truly didn’t expect that James Lee would hire a killer."
He had been investigating Lina Quinn’s matter, albeit later, just starting to find clues, but Damon Hawke was a step ahead, uncovering the truth.
Unexpectedly, James Lee had someone instructed to hit Lina Quinn.
Why did he do this?
"Who did James Lee kill?" Eleanor Shaw asked knowingly.
"He killed Claire."
Hunter Miles turned to look out the window, a hint of sorrow in his eyes.
Eleanor Shaw gazed at his back, her chest heaving.
"Henry, all these years, have you never forgotten Lina Quinn?"
She hated Lina Quinn!
Because Lina Quinn was Hunter Miles’s first love.
A man’s first love was like a cinnabar mole on his heart, unforgettable.
So even though Hunter Miles eventually chose Eleanor, who was a suitable match, the person he loved most in his heart remained Lina Quinn.
A lowly commoner dared to steal her man!
Even dared to get pregnant with his child!
If Lina Quinn had been quiet and stayed away, living peacefully with Troy Don, she wouldn’t have wanted to harm her.
But Lina Quinn sought her own death!
She not only caught Eleanor in a compromising situation with Gabriel Miles but also planned to tell Hunter Miles that she had a daughter with him.
How could this be allowed?
How could her happy life be destroyed by that bitch Lina Quinn?
Therefore, she had Gabriel Miles find a way to destroy Lina Quinn, ensuring she wouldn’t speak.
Then Gabriel Miles arranged for James Lee to deal with Lina Quinn.
The matter was quietly resolved, and her and Gabriel’s affair continued until now.
But Lina Quinn remained a thorn in her heart.
Because her husband Hunter Miles’s most beloved person wasn’t herself!
Though she was a wealthy heiress and a great actress, she was still surpassed by a lowly commoner!
Eleanor Shaw’s face twisted with anger.
Hunter Miles didn’t turn back, he sighed, "She’s gone already, everything’s past."
Even if he hadn’t forgotten Lina Quinn, so what?
They were separated by life and death long ago.
Eleanor Shaw stared at Hunter Miles for a moment, then took a deep breath to calm herself, turning to leave the study.
Indeed.
Lina Quinn was dead.
She remained the victor.
No one could shake her status!
The study door closed, Hunter Miles turned to glance at it, then pulled out his phone to call Damon Hawke.
He still had things he hadn’t figured out.
Why did James Lee instruct Jack Clarke to hit Lina Quinn?
What was his motive?
"Hello, Uncle Hunter."
Damon Hawke’s voice crackled over the line.
Hunter Miles responded with a nod, getting straight to the point.
"Tom, I heard that you were present when James Lee committed suicide; you should know the motive behind him ordering the hit on Lina Quinn."
