Chapter 1154 Her Connection With Mysterious Yet Majestic
Taken aback by her question, Lucas was momentarily at a loss for words.
“You're so busy. I'm worried it might tire you out if I add more to your plate.”
“You're acting as if you're not busy, Mr. Nolan.” Ashlyn smirked. “How's the investigation into my brother-in-law's case going?”
“I've found some leads. Come take a look.” Recently, Lucas had been instructing his subordinates to investigate the case of James.
Although the president had already dispatched people to reinvestigate, they still didn't feel at ease. They believed that taking matters into their own hands would be a more cautious approach.
Ashlyn received the documents handed to her by Lucas and skimmed through them briefly. “I don't quite grasp the details of the case. You should delve deeper and identify what might work in his favor.”
“Given the current situation, there isn't much evidence to overturn his case and clear his name. We still require substantial and direct proof,” Lucas said in a deep voice.
“I've already asked Spencer to reach out to Mysterious yet Majestic. Let's hope they could help find something.”
Ashlyn's expression turned strange when she heard that. After some thought, she said, “You don't need to contact Mysterious yet Majestic, I—”
Before she could finish her sentence, Lucas' phone rang. He casually answered the call. “Spencer, go ahead. Have you gotten in touch with them? What did they say?”
“They've accepted the case? Good.” Lucas hung up the phone and turned to Ashlyn again. “Honey, what were you about to say?”
Ashlyn fell silent.
The woman with a cold demeanor slowly lowered her head, gazing down at her phone.
Mysterious yet Majestic's WhatsApp group was now buzzing with excitement and flooded with messages.
Quiet Forest: I've taken on a new case, investigating James' situation and gathering evidence. You know, I've always thought James was a good person.
Flying Fish: Who knows if it's all just for show? A few years ago, there was a high-ranking official who cycled to work every day. Even he was exposed to be a scum.
Boss: Come on, I still believe that James is innocent.
Jerk: Since Quiet Forest has accepted the case, let's do our best to investigate.
Lone Breeze: How much did the other party offer?
Quiet Forest: Three million in cash.
Flying Fish: D*mn! That's quite a lot of money!
Jerk: Am I the only one who noticed that Zero hasn't shown up?
Quiet Forest: Zero? Are you there? This case definitely can't be handled alone, so we all need to work together.
Zero: I'm here. You must do your best to complete this task. I'm counting on you all.
Flying Fish: What the heck? Dude, did you just say you're counting on us? What's your relationship with James?
Zero: I won't tell you. Hurry up and investigate! If the money isn't enough, I'll add another two million!
Quiet Forest: ...
Lone Breeze: ...
Jerk: Seriously, bro? Looks like you're close with James. Guess we all need to dig a little deeper then.
Quiet Forest: Let's give it our all. I'll be waiting for good news.
Ashlyn exited the group chat interface before lifting her gaze to look at Lucas. “Mysterious yet Majestic looks quite secretive.”
Assuming she was unaware, Lucas didn't suspect her. “Yes, it is. I heard it's directly under the president, but... they also take on private cases. They don't work solely for the president.”
Ashlyn nodded. “It does sound impressive. What if I told you I am—”
She contemplated explaining to Lucas once again about her connection with Mysterious yet Majestic, but before she could say anything, Lucas received another phone call. “Okay. I got it.”
The man hung up the phone and turned to look at Ashlyn. “Mr. Lester has woken up. Shall we go to the hospital together?”
Left without a choice, Ashlyn could only suppress her desire to reveal her true identity to this man.
“Let's go.”
The two of them arrived at Jadeborough Hospital along with Spencer.
Jacob was having oatmeal porridge in his VIP ward while Sabrina sat by his bed, showing concern. “Mr. Lester, you work too hard. You should delegate some tasks to your assistant and take good care of your health.”
Puzzled, Jacob glanced up at Sabrina. Ms. Gray is the team leader of the technical department, and she rarely interacts with the new energy department. Why is she so busy getting involved after I fall ill?
