Hushed conversations filled the air. Some in the room understood what was happening, while others did not.

"Are you Jackson Kane?" The police officer pressed.

Jackson snapped back to reality. He suppressed his emotions and replied, "Yes."

"Do you know a Cody Hunter?"

"No, I don’t," Jackson stated.

"No?" The police officer scrutinized him, "Cody Hunter was present at the club where you were drinking. Why was

he at your gathering if you don't know him?"

Jackson frowned, "I attend gatherings organized by friends. I don't keep track of who's present. Who is Cody

Hunter?"

"He's the brother of one of the kidnappers involved in Keegan's disappearance," said the officer.

He then shifted the focus and added, "Jackson Kane, we suspect you're connected to Keegan's kidnapping. Please

come with us to assist in the investigation."

These words unleashed a storm of emotions in everyone present.

Chandler had been reorganizing the company's structure since Keegan's accident. Positions once held by Keegan's

associates were gradually reassigned. However, the

research and development department resisted Chandler's control, supposedly protected by Keegan's unseen

influence.

The specifics remained undisclosed to the public, yet it was undeniable that Keegan's protection would cease

shortly after his death. Chandler's authority over Vinci Rivera was an inevitable outcome.

Being Chandler's only son, Jackson inherently became the apparent successor to Vinci Rivera. Throughout this

period, he gained widespread popularity within the circle, receiving favorable treatment from many.

With the news of Keegan's death, alliances turned toward those offering benefits realistically.

However, no one foresaw his unexpected return during the memorial. Much less that the first thing he did was to

point his finger at Jackson.

Whispers began to fill the room, "I knew the case wasn't that simple."

"Didn't the kidnapper have a grudge against the young master of the Moore family and mistakenly identified

Keegan as him?"

"The kidnapper is dead. These motives are just speculations during later investigations. Who knows what the real

reason for the kidnapping is?"

"If Jackson knows the kidnapper's brother, that means..."

Everyone had the same thoughts.

Cyrene rushed forward, standing between her son and the police, "Officer, this must be a mistake. How does

drinking at a club make him a suspect in Keegan's case? Haven't the kidnappers been arrested already?"

"We'll know Jackson's connection to the incident after the investigation. Please step aside and don't hinder our

work," one of the police officers responded as he took Jackson away.

Cyrene was desperate to protect her son. She pushed away the officer and said emotionally, "Don't touch my son!

I'm not letting you take him away until you give us an explanation!"

The police frowned, "Ma'am, we need you to cooperate with us."

In a state of shock, Jackson subconsciously turned to Chandler, who was notably composed, and moved forward to

guide Cyrene back gently.

"The police have emphasized the need for an investigation. A proper inquiry will prove Jackson's innocence. Trying

to obstruct the police might give the appearance that we're covering for him. Let him go. If he's innocent, there's

nothing to worry about," said Chandler.

Though Cyrene favored his son, her loyalty was always to her husband. Despite her anger, she reluctantly complied

with Chandler's order.

Chandler then looked at Jackson and said, "Don't forget to cooperate fully with the police investigation."

With a pale face, Jackson nodded and turned away. As he left, his gaze lingered on Keegan, revealing a hint of

hostility.

Keegan remained expressionless, coldly watching as the police took Jackson away. *
