Chapter 668 I’ll Abide by the Law

Caroline asked, “What would you do if there’s undeniable proof?”

Evan replied, “I’ll follow the law. But don’t you think it’s unfair if you reject me for this?”

Caroline countered, “What’s fair then? Should I accept my enemy’s son? Have you ever considered my

I

feelings?”

Evan grew cold at Caroline’s perceived unreasonableness. “You need to calm down.”

Caroline persisted, “I can’t calm down! The truth is out. Would you calm down if it were you?”

Evan remained silent.

Caroline sneered and declared, “See? No one can accept it. I’m going home.”

She rose and headed toward the hot spring area.

While looking at her departing figure, Evan picked up his phone tensely and called Reuben.

Reuben answered promptly.

Evan asked coldly, “How’s the investigation into Caroline’s father going?”

Reuben reported, “I was just about to report to you, Mr. Jordan. We encountered Mr. Xander’s men while looking into the people involved in

that year’s bidding. They claim Ms. Shenton’s father’s death is likely

linked to your father…”

With a determined look, Evan instructed, “Keep digging. I want the truth.”

Reuben replied, “Understood, Mr. Jordan.”

Draco was about to take a nap at Jordan Residence when he received an unexpected call from an

unfamiliar number.

Perplexed, he answered, “Who is this?”

The caller identified himself, “It’s Oswald Hoffman. You paid me a significant sum to abstain from bidding

on the wealthy area that year.”

Draco narrowed his eyes, struggling to recall who Oswald was. After a moment, he said, “Oh, I remember

now. What’s the matter?”

Oswald explained, “I understand you’re busy, and you may have forgotten our arrangement. You told me

to inform you if anyone inquired about the bidding.”

Draco sat up abruptly, alert, and asked, “Has someone approached you?”

“Yes. While they aren’t prominent figures, they seem quite capable.

Draco was now vigilant. “You know what to do. Money won’t be an issue.”

Draco was well aware of Oswald’s intentions. It seemed Oswald intended to manipulate the situation to

extract more money from him, given his prolonged silence.

Oswald got to the point, “I know, but I’m in a financial bind right now.”

Draco snorted. “I’ll give you 280,000 dollars once it’s done.”

Oswald chuckled. “But I believe your worth exceeds that, doesn’t it?”

Annoyed, Draco reprimanded, “You’re simply identifying those involved. How much do you need for that?”

With that, he abruptly ended the call, fearing Oswald might know too much.

Draco wondered who else could have revealed the information from that year.

After a brief reflection, he called for Bernard, who promptly entered.

“May I help you, Master Jordan?” Bernard asked.

Draco asked with seriousness, “Do you recall the events from over 20 years ago?”

Bernard appeared surprised. “You mean the Hugh Aday incident?”

Draco squinted. I’m getting forgetful with age. Did we leave any information that could be used against

us?”

“At that time, there were no outsiders, Master Jordan. You’re worrying needlessly. Furthermore, it’s ancient history. No one will care, Bernard

reassured him.

Draco stated gravely, “Oswald wouldn’t be demanding so much money if it were that simple.”

“Oswald?” After a moment, Bernard remembered who he was. “Did he request money from you?”

Draco remained silent, his expression dark.

Bernard’s face mirrored the concem. “Perhaps someone has disclosed something, or he has discovered something himself. Otherwise, he

wouldn’t be approaching you for money.”
