NovelOnlineChapter 717 Hawkins Group Is Involved Luke had previously searched for Reina's daughter but failed to find her, so he hesitated before saying, "It's beyond my abilities, Ms.
Lewis. We might need to seek Mr. Fulton's help." Grace nodded knowingly. "Since Susan has returned, she will spare no effort to destroy any evidence that might exist. Keep a close eye on her and make sure Benjamin doesn't suspect anything." Mentioning him, Luke chuckled. "He's in a precarious situation now." "What do you mean?" "Among the illicit dealings uncovered during yesterday's inspection at Nightshade Bar, Hawkins Group's name showed up." Grace's pupils dilated slightly. This was unexpected. In her impression, although Benjamin was reckless, he wouldn't gamble with Hawkins Group. How could he collude with the officials? ""The newly-appointed director of the anti-corruption department is a man of methods. He should find the evidence in no time. Benjamin is currently juggling a lot." Meanwhile, at Hope Hospital, a nurse was tidying up the bed. An assistant in a jacket entered and picked up the luggage from the floor.
"Mr. Hamilton, the car is ready."

As he stood up with the help of a cane, a pair of hands reached out to assist him. d ""Pamore is full of powerful figures. Take care of yourself after leaving the hospital, Mr. Hamilton." His words carried a hidden meaning. Dexter glanced at the young man calmly. "Your intelligence was accurate, Mr. Fulton. Mr. Jarvis didn't misjudge you, but I became one of your pawns." Xander replied indifferently. "You made a name for yourself in Pamore, and I got what I wanted. It was mutually beneficial. Besides, I'm just a whistleblower. This doesn't count as a violation." His level of meticulousness exceeded Dexter's expectations.
"When the investigation starts, there will be a shakeup in Pamore's businesses. I don't know about Fulton Group, but what about Futurelink, Mr. Fulton?" Xander remained composed. "Go ahead and investigate. It's crystal clear." Dexter's resentment toward Xander lessened after hearing that. "I'm over ten years older than you, but I heard about you from Mr. Jarvis.
He praised you as a talented person with a gentle demeanor and sharp methods. Now that I've met you, I think there's nothing gentle about you."
A hint of amusement crept into Xander's eyes, but his expression showed a sense of doubt.
Dexter left Xander's doubt unresolved. His assistant opened the car door and helped him inside.
Xander stood on the steps, watching as Dexter's Bentley Mulsanne gradually pulled away.
Shortly after, Hazel appeared behind him. "Mr. Hamilton taking office is going to shake up some colleagues. Looks like he's going to be targeted." That was why he commented that Xander wasn't gentle.
"Any news about Hawkins Group?" Xander glanced sideways.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yes, Jessica being sent out of Pamore was his doing. There must have been someone assisting him behind the scenes. It seems he has done similar things before." "What about Jake?" "After Nancy was taken away for investigation, he hasn't shown up again. I'm not sure if it's to avoid suspicion." "Send the surveillance footage from the restaurant on New Year's Eve to Chief Bradley. Jake needs to eat some humble pie," Xander instructed calmly.
Jake went to great lengths, bringing in Priscilla and ordering a
Kidhnian traditional gown similar to Grace's. He deliberately - provoked Xander that day, but he surely didn't expect that it would become key evidence against him and Nancy. : Hazel nodded. However, she was a bit puzzled. "What if Jake hadn't shown up that day?" "I've been keeping an eye on Nightshade Bar since his return to Pamore. Even if he hadn't shown up that day, Dexter would have investigated the bar anyway." Xander had arranged for that before the New Year, but he didn't expect Jake to walk right into the trap.
Moreover, discovering Benjamin's involvement was like hitting two birds with one stone.
Hazel looked at Xander's broad and straight back, feeling her admiration for him grow.
