Frederic smiled. “Z, you’re really being more considerate to your father-in-law now!”
Zephyr glared at him.
Frederic only shrugged. Some people were just stubborn, but their heart was honest.
It seemed that Zephyr and Rowan were quite similar in this case. Guess they were just destined to be a family!
“Oh, yeah, don’t get too caught up with this father-in-law, Z. Friendly reminder, but your ex-father-in-law’s company
is going down! You’ve got to watch out for him.”
Zephyr frowned. What the heck?
Frederic grinned. “Your ex-father-in-law, William Jenner?”
When he looked up, Zephyr’s glower grew darker.
“Cough!” Frederic quickly explained, “William Jenner’s company isn’t going that well. It seems like it’ll be going
bankrupt soon.”

He remembered that the company had been doing alright when they had still been in Jangasas. He’d even wanted
to give Cordelia some shares back then. How had he managed to go bankrupt in just two years?
“There must be a reason behind this?” Zephyr’s deep eyes made it seem like he could see through anything.
“It’s mainly because he doesn’t know how to run it,” Frederic replied flatly. “He’s arrogant and full of himself, so the
people in his company have been unhappy with him for some time. Once he has enough enemies, he will go down.
“But I took a look at their accounts…”
Zephyr’s eyes lit up. “What did you find?”
“Not much in the company, but a pretty large sum of money has been transferred to William Jenner’s personal
account each month!”
“From where?”
“Southeast Aciatic.”
Southeast Aciatic? Zephyr’s heart lurched, and a guess flashed in his head. He asked Frederic doubtfully after a
while, “It’s not… the money Rowan gave to Cordelia’s mom, is it?”
Frederic paused. He had not expected Zephyr’s mind to work so fast! It was fortunate that he had made some
effort and figured the whole thing out, or he would have been stumped in front of Zephyr now!
“It is the money Rowan gave to Aunt Irwin. But I suspect that William Jenner’s made it his own throughout these
years. That’s why he transfers it to his own account each month he receives the money!
“But no money has been coming from the Irwins recently.” Frederic thought about it. “It matches the time Mr. Irwin
first arrived in Centrolis.”
This meant that Rowan had stopped sending money after coming to Centrolis—either because he was staying to
take care of Xyla and their kids personally or because he was taking them back!
Zephyr’s hand on the glass tightened.
The old geezer! He could forget about leaving with Cordelia!

In the evening, William was sitting in the empty office in Jangasas. Just ten minutes ago, the court people had taken
the last of his furniture and left him with only a table and chair.
The Jenners were not in high society but they were known in Jangasas.
This place used to be bustling with life and people, but all the assets and immovable property were currently
mortgaged.
William pressed hard on his temples with a deep frown. He did not know what had gone wrong either. His company
had been doing worse day after day and it was close to closing down now. A flourishing business just gone in a
snap.
He was indignant.
When Xyla had been under his control last time, money had been sent over from Southeast Aciatic. Now, there was
not even a single cent left.
William was skeptical. Had he exposed himself, or had someone else discovered something?
