“Hah, haha.” Fredric faked a laugh while he wondered if someone like William was considered the lower limit of a
human’s low intelligence.
Despite that, he had to go along with him. “Yeah, Zephyr will definitely do that. You’ll pocket another large amount
by then!”
William was triumphant and took another sip of tea.
“But… Mr. Jenner, the Jenner Group really shouldn’t be closing down when you’re so good at planning!”
William was immediately appalled. “That was a careless mistake!”
“But you should have a good sum of money with you!”
“You… How did you know?” William put his guard up right away.
Fredric had always been a brilliant hunter in collecting evidence. He could make his prey fall into his trap step by
step.
“Mr. Jenner, with the relationship I share with Mr. Yale, he told me about you long ago. Back when the Irwin heiress,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXyla Irwin, left Southeast Aciatic and went to Jangasas, you purposely took her home, right?”
William went stiff upon hearing this and stared at Fredric with a frown.
“You…”
“Is that the case?”
“I… I don’t want to talk about this anymore!” William avoided the conversation. “Just tell me where the box is!”
Fredric snickered and continued to pour tea, enjoying it himself.
William was stunned. Why was the lawyer having the tea himself? It seemed that the man would not fetch any box
if he did not say anything.
William thought he could look for it himself, but the mansion was too big, and there was not enough time. He had to
watch out for Cordelia and Zephyr, who would be back anytime too…
William bit his lips and threw himself back on the couch to spill the beans.
“Fine, I’ll talk about it!
“Back when Xyla came to Jangasas, she had no one. I had heard about the Irwins from Southeast Aciatic, so I took
Xyla in…
“I just wanted the set of medicinal formulas in reality, but that b*tch wouldn’t give it to me! I later discovered that
there’d be a sum of money sent to her account each month—”
Fredric interrupted him. “The money’s from Southeast Aciatic?”
“Yes.” William looked at him. “I looked into it, and Rowan Irwin was the one who sent it! Hah… Xyla was already
pregnant back then! Since that was already the case, I might as well…”
“Might as well what?” Fredric looked at him coldly.
“What else?” William sneered. “What a waste it would be to leave such a beautiful woman alone! Even when she
was pregnant, I could still have fun with her…”
“Then?”
“Then… I took her money after I had fun with her.” William was shameless. “I didn’t expect Rowan to be so
devoted. He gave her quite a lot of money! The amount of money per month could beat half a year of the Jenner
Group’s net profit! Hah, how could I waste so much money?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFredric took a deep breath. “So, you claimed it as your own?”
William grew impatient from the questions and frowned. “Why do you have so many questions? Hurry up and get
the box!”
Fredric looked straight into William’s eyes and told him flatly, “William Jenner, link everything you said just now and
repeat it!”
“You…” William froze. “Are you f*cking crazy!?”
“Say it!” Fredric suddenly growled. “Otherwise, don’t even dream about getting that box!”
William licked his lips, not knowing why the lawyer had a sudden shift of attitude. For the box, though, he would just
assume that the lawyer had woken up on the wrong side of the bed today!
He held his rage back and speedily repeated what he had said.
“I took Xyla Irwin in because I wanted the set of medicinal formulas she had… She didn’t want to give it to me, so I-I
assaulted her and took her money. The money Rowan Irwin sent each month all went into my pocket! Alright?”
As soon as he was done speaking, all the lights in the living room lit up in unison! The siren outside blared
deafeningly.
William was shocked and was going to ask Fredric what was going on when he saw the door to a room by the living
room open slowly and someone walk out…
