Chapter 808 Right Is Right and Wrong Is Wrong
Meanwhile, the White Family were having a meal together around the table at the White Residence.
Noticing that Onyx had finished his meal, Adelpha suddenly asked, “Dad, one of the world’s most
renowned orchestra will be having a concert at Tissote next Wednesday, and I heard that Maestro
Sinclair will be there too. Our whole family should go and watch it together.”
“Let’s go since I’m free on Wednesday.” Onyx agreed to her suggestion.
“Thanks, Dad.” Adelpha then turned over and looked at Elise. “Anastasia, I’m sure that you’ll be
attending too, right?”
“I’m not interested,” Elise replied.
Adelpha had anticipated Elise’s response, and she put on a sad face as she said to Onyx, “Dad,
Anastasia isn’t supportive of my career at all. I initially thought that if all of us were there, Master Sinclair
would get to see how close our family is and might even decide to take me in as his protege. But now, I
think I should just give up.”
Although Onyx cared a lot about Adelpha, Elise had a hold on him after he committed a fraud earlier on,
so he didn’t dare to offend her. Instead, he kept quiet as he thought of an appropriate reply.
“I suddenly feel like going.” Elise changed her mind after seeing how desperate Adelpha was to make
sure that she would be there. She knew that Adelpha must be planning something behind her back, and
she was curious to see what it was.
Hearing that, Adelpha beamed ear to ear and said, “Thank you, Anastasia.”
Anastasia, you should enjoy the last few moments you have with that unborn b*stard child of yours. After
all, both of you will part ways on the day of the orchestra.
The atmosphere during dinner was rather harmonious as both sisters seemed to get along well.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOnce Elise got back to her room, she immediately took her phone out to search for information about the
concert. Since she did not want to expose her real identity, she registered an account on the darknet
using Anastasia’s identity. In less than two minutes, she had managed to get a few responses.
Based on her findings, there would indeed be an orchestra performance in Tissote, but Maestro
Sinclair’s name wasn’t mentioned. However, she noticed the name ‘Danilo Yorkson’ on a guest list that
she had managed to get her hands on.
Yorkson’s achievements in the field of the piano were no less than Elise’s skills in hacking, both of which
were regarded as the best of the best in each of their fields.
It was stated that Yorkson would be selecting a protege among the pianists in Cittadel and would send
them overseas to further their studies.
She suspected that Adelpha wasn’t aware of this, or she wouldn’t have used Maestro Sinclair as bait to
make them go to the concert.
“Please come in,” Elise called out.
“Yes, Master.” Jacob appeared at the door shortly after.
“Look for a reason to go out and head over to this place; see if there are any discrepancies with the
actual structure. I have sent you a location and a blueprint on WhatsApp.”
“I’ll go over now.” Jacob left the house shortly after.
As Elise looked at the closed door, she was lost in thought as she touched her bulging belly. Moving
forward, she couldn’t afford to be set up anymore, and she needed to drive Adelpha away from her while
she could still move freely. To win the battle, she had to find out what Adelpha’s plan was. She’d be able
to devise a plan after confirming that the concert hall hadn’t been modified.
At 3.00AM, a cargo ship was seen sailing toward the first port in the dark. The horn blasting from the ship
had shattered the silence of the night.
Alexander turned up by the shore on time with Johnny and a few other bodyguards who were dressed in
suits. The sight of them seemed pretty intimidating.
Soon, the cargo ship docked, and a yellow container was discharged from the ship and placed at a spot
not far away from them.
Johnny entered the container once it was opened up, and when he came out, he whispered something to
Alexander. With that, Alexander took the delivery note from the man and signed it.
At the same time, a huge spotlight suddenly turned on, and the entire port was brightly lit. Following that,
police officers who were in uniform started emerging from all directions and had Alexander and his men
surrounded in no time.
Soon, Jayden and Narissa were seen making their way through the crowd. Jayden managed to get
several good angles before excitedly snapping pictures as he knew that he would be getting a big scoop
today. Unlike the overjoyed Jayden, Narissa was calm and had a poker face on.
Noticing that, Alexander looked at everyone calmly and asked, “What is going on? Proper procedures
have been obtained in advance for Smith Co.’s shipments. What you’re doing is inappropriate.”
“We will find out about it once we do a round of checking!” The head of the police force gave his
instructions. The next moment, almost half of his men immediately dashed toward the container and the
cargo ship.
The night breeze was getting colder as time passed. It blew into their sleeves and puffed up their clothes,
making them all look puffy. Their hair was also messy because of it. However, the atmosphere at the port
had gotten very tense.
After ten minutes had passed, the men finally returned and reported to one of the police officers, “We
couldn’t find anything on it.”
The police officer who was initially confident frowned and asked, “Have you done a thorough search?”
“We did, but we didn’t manage to get anything!”
Hearing that, the police officer shot a look at Jayden as he frowned. Jayden, who had just tested his
camera, was stunned when he heard what happened. It shouldn’t go wrong since he had been preparing
for this two years prior.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Police officer, can you please give me a reasonable explanation on this?” Alexander asked.
Seeing that so many people were looking his way, the head of the police troop bowed at him and
apologized, “We are very sorry. We received information that there would be an illegal trade taking place
here, so we had no choice but to come and investigate. Mr. Griffith, we hope that you will understand.”
“Of course I do, but since my time is valuable, I believe that the police should be compensating me for
the time that has been wasted, don’t you think?”
Hearing that, the policeman’s face turned grim. Even after they had utilized so many resources, they
weren’t able to get anything; on top of that, they had to fork out a large sum for compensation. He would
definitely be reprimanded by his superior. Given the situation, he had no choice but to accept it.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Griffith, we will not default on our debts. You can just get your company’s finance staff to
go directly to the customs for reimbursement.” The policeman forced out a smile. After speaking, he
rolled his eyes at Jayden before leaving with the team.
“Officer, could you please check again?” Jayden tried to get them to stay behind but to no avail.
“Mr. Quinn, you seem to not like me very much.” Alexander suddenly walked toward him and spoke.
Hearing that, Jayden looked over displeasedly and replied, “Alexander, you are lucky that you got away
with it this time, but you won’t be this lucky the next time. I will definitely obtain evidence of the crimes
that you have committed.”
“Why bother? Nothing is right or wrong, and everything is relative. Why don’t we put our differences
aside and make friends? ” Alexander intended to make peace.
“No thanks. Right is right and wrong is wrong, that’s that. I don’t think that we can be friends. I hope that
you’ll be ready to be investigated the next time we meet.”
After that, he carried his camera and rushed over to join the police officers.
After Jayden had gone far, Alexander said to Narissa, “Thank you for believing in me.”
“There’s no need to thank me,” she replied coldly. The one that I believe in is El. Be careful not to leave
any trails next time. If this happens again in the future, I won’t be able to help you anymore.” She left
after telling him that.
