"Uh…" Randy was stunned when he heard the former's words.
He had never expected that Josh would realize it and had always thought that Josh was a carefree person that always squandered his days on the pleasures of life and ogled at beautiful girls.
"Randy, don't worry. We had already told the maid to leave. No one will eavesdrop on us. If you are worried that they'll hear it, you can lower your voice, " whispered Venus with a pinched voice.
"Yeah. Tell us if you have any secrets. We are of one mind. Let's face the problems together, " said Josh with a stern face.
Hearing that, Randy pondered for a while before answering them. Hmm… They may not help me in other things, but it's about Mommy's whereabouts now. I believe that they'll listen to me.
Besides, Great-grandpa keeps such a close eye on me now. It's impossible for me to go out secretly to find out Mommy's whereabouts unless Josh and Venus help me…
After all, to Great-grandpa, they are the most obedient children.
So I think he won't suspect anything if they do something out of line.
Moreover, she is our mommy. Therefore, the three of us must work together in finding mommy so that everything will go faster and smoother.
Having thought that, Randy stood up to lock the door and close the curtains.
Seeing that, Josh and Venus exchanged glances. Randy's actions made both of them feel nervous.
Then, Josh inquired nervously, "Randy, do you really have a secret?"
"What secret is that? Do you want to go on an adventure?"
At that time, an image of Randy bringing them to go on an adventure like the pirates of the Caribbean flashed across Venus's mind.
Randy didn't answer their questions. He took out the ring from the drawer and asked in a mysterious tone, "Josh, Venus, do you know what this is?"
"This is a ring."
Josh and Venus inched closer toward Randy to observe the ring and started to discuss among themselves.
"It looks like Daddy's ring."
"No. This is a woman's ring. I think I have seen it before…"
"Look at this." Randy played the wedding video and showed it to Josh and Venus. Then, he pointed at the ring finger of Carla's right hand and queried, "What do you see?"
"Oh my God! The ring looks like Mommy's wedding ring!"
Venus took the ring over and studied it closely.
"Is this Mommy's ring?" Josh queried tentatively.
"Yes." Randy nodded.
"What?" Josh and Venus's eyes widened in shock upon hearing that.
They only snapped back to their senses after a while. Then, they started to ask Randy inquisitively.
"How do you get the ring? Did Mommy give it to you before she left? But I've never seen you take it out before. M-Mommy…"
Before Venus could finish her words, she froze. Her eyes widened in shock, and she looked at Randy in disbelief, "Mommy is back?"
"Randy, is Mommy back?" Josh grabbed hold of Randy's hands and urged the latter to say, "Quick, tell us!"
Venus fiddled with Randy's sleeve and urged him anxiously, too, "Yeah, you are driving me crazy! What's going on?"
"Do you still remember that eagle? I found the ring on its feet…" Randy started to recount the incident to them.
"What?" Josh and Venus were astounded at his words.
"It happened like this…" Randy explained the whole incident to them in detail.
Upon hearing that, the two of them were very agitated.
Then, Josh said, "No wonder you slipped away this morning. I thought you did it because Ms. Selena moved in, and you felt uneasy about it, so you ran away from home to scare Great-grandpa. I even played along with you just now."
On the other hand, Venus queried apprehensively, "Randy, what happened to the eagle now? Is Mommy living at Northridge?"
"I'm not sure. But even if mommy is not there, the people who live there will know where she is. For now, we need to figure out a way to go there and ask about Mommy's whereabouts!" Randy said in a serious tone.
