Meanwhile, Evan parked his car outside the police station.

The police station chief, Fabian Dunn, greeted Evan warmly.

“It’s been a while, Mr. Jordan, Fabian said, extending his hand.

Evan shook his hand and casually said, “Sorry for the trouble. Please bring out the culprit.”

Fabian replied, “No trouble at all. I’ve already sent someone to fetch the culprit. Please wait.”

Evan nodded, adding, “I owe you a drink next time.”

Fabian chuckled. “You’re too kind, Mr. Jordan.”

They briefly conversed until a male officer brought Finn over.

Finn stiffened when he saw Evan and approached him fearfully, saying “Mr… Mr. Jordan.”

Evan glanced at him before turning to Fabian. “Thank you. I’ll have a brief chat with him.”

Smiling, Fabian replied, “Go ahead.”

Evan escorted Finn to his car.

Once the door was shut, Finn could feel Evan’s imposing presence. His heart raced, and he sat there

me to ask, or are you going to

Finn had worked for Evan long enough to know the dire consequences of lying. Faced with a choice

between staying alive and keeping the money, Finn chose life.

He stammered, “Mr. Jordan, someone hired me to damage a car with the license plate $1027, They

promised me 140,000 dollars for the job but warned me not to harm the driver.”

Evan glanced at him sideways. “Is there something you’re leaving out?”

Finn swallowed hard. “The person also told me to imply to Ms. Shenton that you were behind it.”

Evan scoffed. “You’re well aware of the consequences of crossing me. Why did you still do it?”

Finn hurriedly explained, “Mr. Jordan, my wife is seriously ill, and I need the money for her treatment.”

Evan’s intimidating demeanor softened when Finn mentioned his wife’s illness. He looked at Finn and

asked, “What’s wrong with her?”

Finn replied, “Late–stage leukemia. She needs a bone marrow transplant within a month, or she won’t

make it.”

Evan frowned.

Leukemia again?”

Noticing Evan’s silence, Finn anxiously continued. “Mr. Jordan, if you want, you can look into this, but

could you please spare me some money?”

Evan’s tone softened further, possibly because of his experience with Axel’s condition. “Who ordered

you. to do this?”

Finn answered, “I don’t know the person. They contacted me from different numbers and used a voice.

changer, Mr. Jordan.”

Evan narrowed his eyes. “Did they only instruct you to do these two things?”

“Yes, sir. They paid me 140,000 dollars upfront and threatened to harm my wife if I failed.”

Evan pondered for a moment. “Very well, you may go inside.”

Finn was astonished. “You’re not holding me responsible, Mr. Jordan?”

Evan sneered. “You should know what to do next.”

Finn nodded. “I understand, Mr. Jordan. I’ll inform you if the person contacts me again, and I won’t

implicate you when I speak to Ms. Shenton.”

Afterward, Finn was taken back to the station.

Reuben asked in confusion, “Do you trust Finn, sir?”

“Find out more about his wife’s condition,” Evan ordered.

Reuben replied, “Yes, sir! Should we head to the hospital now?”

Evan’s gaze darkened. “Still no updates on the bone marrow?”

Reuben sighed. “Unfortunately, no, sir.”
