In a car opposite to the Steward Group, Vincent fixed his eyes on Logan’s back and asked, “Have you investigated
his track last night.”
His subordinate replied, “He sent his daughter to a training institution for dancing last night. I’ve asked the teachers
of the training institution and they said he had been waiting outside of the classroom last night and hadn’t left.”
“Is there any surveillance camera?”
His subordinate shook his head, “The teachers of the training institution said the surveillance camera was broken
several days ago. As they had many things to deal with recently, they didn’t have the time to maintain it.”
After a short while of silence, Vincent said, “Arrange some men to follow him. Be careful. Don’t let him find them.”
“Okay.”
“Where is Clarence?”
“Mr. Conrad is…”
Vincent rubbed the flesh between his brows and said, “Never mind. Go to the Conrad Group.”
At the same time…
In the Conrad Group…
A woman kneeled on the ground with scare and panic written all over her face, “I know nothing. The fire is so big at
that time and I couldn’t find my child. I just wanted someone to help me find my child. I…”
Clarence tossed a document in front of him with coldness on his face. He didn’t say anything, yet his surroundings
were enveloped by a layer of invisible oppression.
Trembling, the woman flipped over the document with both hands. Then she found her identity and the domicile
was on the document.
Her face immediately became pale.
Clarence said in a cold voice, “You only have one chance. I don’t want to hear your craps.”
The woman looked at him, feeling a gush of fear spreading in her heart.
She didn’t dare to hide the truth anymore and stammered, “I… I’m an extra. A man found me several days ago,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtrequiring me to perform a show, and promised to give me a reward of two four hundred dollars. I will only get 10
dollars for each performance in the filming base. So four hundred dollars is a high reward for me. I…”
The woman shifted her gaze to Maxwell and continued, “Then that man gave me his picture and let me grabbed his
arm when seeing him getting downstairs after the fire. So I…”
Clarence said, “The picture.”
The woman hurriedly rummaged her bag and then took out a picture. She handed the picture to Clarence with
trembling hands.
Clarence took a glance at it and then handed it to Maxwell, “Do you remember when this was taken?”
Apparently, this picture was taken from afar.
Maxwell carefully studied the picture. After a while, he replied, “Mr. Conrad, this picture should be taken two months
ago. At that time, we hadn’t moved into the apartment and were still living in JN Community.
Clarence took the picture from him and asked the woman who was kneeling on the ground, “Do you remember
what that man looks like?”
The woman replied, “I forget it. But if you can show me his picture, I will recognize him.”
Clarence said, “Show her Logan’s picture.”
Maxwell took out his phone, clicked the screen and then put it in front of the woman.
The woman studied it. After a while, she shook her head, “It’s not him.”
Maxwell said, “Mr. Conrad, if it was Logan who planned this, it meant he deliberately approached Amanda before. It
has been several months so far, but he hasn’t shown any holes, which meant he was so prudent. Moreover, he
managed to take them away under our defense and there has been no news about them so far. I guess he must
have other companions.”
Clarence remained silent. After a while, he asked, “Are you sure that you will recognize him when you see that
man?
The woman was stunned for a moment. Then she realized that Clarence was talking to her. She hurriedly nodded
her head, “I have a good memory. Of course, I can recognize him.”
Clarence said, “Take her out.”
Maxwell received the order and took the woman out of the office.
Vincent arrived after their leaving. He reported, “Someone proved that Logan had been in the training class for
dancing last night and he hadn’t left.”
Clarence’s expression remained unchanged. “Alibi is used to fool the fools. Continue to investigate it.”
Nathan said, “Mr. Conrad, I will investigate the man who gave her the picture.”
Clarence said, “Guess it. Now that the picture was taken two months ago, why did they only take action yesterday?”
Nathan was bewildered by his question.
Clarence continued, “Logan deliberately approached Amanda several months ago and gradually gained her trust.
Although I don’t know what Amanda has told him so far, I’m sure of one thing: Logan knows about their dynamics
the most.”
Vincent understood it, “So Logan probably knew that Maxwell and then other men were guarding the baby and
secretly took Maxwell’s photo. But if this is the case, JN Community should be the best place for them to take
action. Why did they choose to exert their plan until they moved into the apartment?”
Now that Logan had learned about Amanda’s identity and knew who the child was, he definitely knew that Clarence
was living in the same building.
Based on his prudence, it was not well-grounded for him to take action in the apartment.
Moreover, many men were involved in this matter and this was a big accident. It seemed like Logan didn’t have the
guts and power to do so.
Clarence said in a calm voice, “The reason why he only chose to take action yesterday was that he had been
waiting for something before.”
Vincent was bewildered, “Waiting?”
“He had been waiting for a chance.” Clarence continued, “No matter whom he sells the news to, he can gain a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhuge profit from t. If he does it himself, he can’t do anything except extorting money from me. He didn’t dare to do
so, so he had been waiting before.”
Nathan asked, “Mr. Conrad, do you mean that the other person there knew about the existence of little Noah and
Logan took the opportunity to reach an agreement with him…”
Nathan suddenly paused as he realized that except for the Conrads, he could not think of the other possible
suspect, who was so powerful to create such an accident, didn’t afraid that this accident would cause great
attention, and was willing to pay a great cost to take away little Noah.
Vincent said, “I’ve been watching the Conrads. Based on their sources of information, they can’t get this news.”
Clarence snorted, “Only they themselves know how they managed to get the news.”
Nathan asked, “Then what should I do now? Should we come to the Conrad family and ransom them?”
Vincent threw himself into the sofa, “It’s just his assumption so far. What grounds do we have to question them?”
“I will search for evidence right away.”
Clarence asked, “Don’t you know why Dempsey did that? Even if you show the evidence to him, he will still refuse to
let go of them.”
Vincent added, “To say the least, if it was not Dempsey who took away the baby and we abruptly visit him, isn’t it
equal to directly tell him that Clarence has a son?”
The office was suddenly prevailed by silence.
After a long while, Clarence asked, “Is Annie still alive?”
Nathan nodded his head, “She’s still alive.”
Although she had been crazy…
Clarence said in a flat tone, “Take her back. I will go to the Conrads’ Mansion tonight.
As for whether his assumption was true or not, he would know it after examining it.
Vincent asked, “Do you plan to provoke him?”
Clarence stood up. There was no change in his tone of voice, but his voice somehow carried coldness as he said,
“Provoke? I just want to send him a gift.”
