Although the thought of it disgusted Richelie Dunn, judging from Jayden Dunn’s instigation of Sebastian Lewis, Mason Lilliput, that nauseating old rogue, reached the peak of his conquest index.
Since he wanted it so badly, he would definitely not sit idly by and let Jayden and his crew mess around, which could ultimately lead to things getting out of control.
“Mhm, your analysis is very accurate. However, after this incident, with his suspicious nature, those waterways and land routes would probably not be used for a while,” Richelie said.
Richelle nodded, “That’s right, so they must be looking for an alternative location with similar functions recently. I think if you still want to investigate his past dealings with the Thompsons, you should rule out places with similar geographical conditions that can be exploited by them.”
Roy Lewis patted her head, “I think you can be my strategist.”
Richelle snorted, “Come on, I don’t want to steal Nathan’s job.”
Roy Lewis and Richelle didn’t continue the conversation since it was almost time.
On the other hand, Jayden Dunn and Sebastian Lewis were in disarray.
The news about the people Mason Lilliput sent to pick up Richelle being hijacked in the hotel quickly reached their ears.
Then, all those who had participated in the kidnapping were arrested.
One unexpected event after another shocked the two of them.
At first, the two were in good spirits chatting over two phone calls, but later, neither of them was in the mood for talking.
They were both worried that if any of the participants revealed something, they would be severely punished.
In fact, those involved in the kidnapping quickly confessed everything, and Mr. Mitchell’s men traced Sebastian Lewis following the leads.
However, Jayden was much more cunning and cautious than Sebastian.
All the arrangements he made could completely exonerate him.
Roy received a call from Mr. Mitchell early in the morning.
After interrogating the suspects overnight, they had confessed everything that needed to be confessed.
“Mr. Lewis, this Sebastian…”
Mr. Mitchell’s call was actually seeking advice.
“Arrest him if you need to. Even as a Lewis, he has no right to be immune from the law.”
Mr. Mitchell immediately ordered his men to arrest Sebastian Lewis.
Early this morning, Richelle went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for the three children. As she was about to go upstairs to call them, she saw Roy, sitting in his wheelchair, lost in thought on his phone.
“What’s wrong?”
Roy didn’t hide from her, “Mr. Mitchell just called, and those people confessed everything. Sebastian can’t escape, but as for Jayden, apart from the conversations recorded by the bugs at the time, we have no other evidence to prove his involvement in this case.”
Roy thought that Richelle would be disappointed.
After all, the reason she orchestrated this entire countermeasure was to lure Jayden out.
However, after a night of interrogation, Mr. Mitchell’s team obtained no information linking Jayden to any of those cases.
“Isn’t this within our expectations?”
But to Roy’s surprise, Richelle wasn’t disappointed at all; instead, she replied calmly.
“Jayden is not as good at business as my father. But when it comes to scheming and cunning, he is far more skilled than my father. Otherwise, look at the cases of my parents and my imprisonment, we still haven’t found any clues to this day.”
Roy didn’t know whether she was prepared for this or had genuinely accepted it.
But one thing was for sure: the battle between her and Jayden continued.
“Don’t worry, one day we will find out the truth. And Jayden’s family will receive the punishment they deserve,” Roy reassured her.
Richelle nodded, “I know, after all, I have you, don’t I? Besides, it would be too easy for Jayden and his family just to die peacefully.”
As the two were talking, they heard the three little kids chattering and laughing from upstairs.
“Oh, right, I’m going to accompany the kids to a parent-child activity at the school later. You stay home and don’t wander around.”
Roy pointed to his leg in a cast, “Even if I wanted to move around, this leg wouldn’t allow it.”
Richelle was slightly annoyed by his deliberate misinterpretation.
“Roy Lewis, you know what I mean. Don’t mess up the plan you’ve been carefully scheming for the past few weeks because of me.”
Roy pinched her slender hand, “Don’t worry, I’m not that foolish.”
Richelle was still half-believing and half-doubting.
“You never know!”
Although Roy always concealed it perfectly in her presence, Richelle knew that he was actually a very possessive person.
Mason Lilliput and his crew’s actions this time were a sign of disdain and humiliation to Roy.
That was why, at first, he was unwilling to approve the execution of this countermeasure plan with a body double.
Roy could only laugh and cry, “Richelle, am I really that untrustworthy in your eyes? Or do you think I can’t get things done without doing them myself?”
Richelle thought for a while, “That’s true, you have the all-powerful special assistant. All you need to do is give him the order..”
