“Aww, honey, do tell me about it…” Suzie’s eyes brightened a bit. “Could it be because of my cousin?
He knew about our family. He helped us too…” “That call will end soon if you don’t answer it.” Franklin
waved his hand in the air nonchalantly. The man was just one of the secretary in the Paramount
Chamber of Commerce. How could he possibly help? As soon as she answered the call, she asked
sweetly. “Cousin, how are you so free today to call me?” Jacob’s good mood immediately went to the
dumps when he witnessed his wife talking over the phone happily to another guy. As soon as he exited
the hall, he waved his hand and mumbled gently. “Hah! She’s just a little face who got stuck in the
door!” Although it was rude to say so, but it was sufficient to express his thoughts. Just as he was
contemplating whether to eavesdrop their conversation, a strong whiff of fragrance could be smelled,
and his wife ran out. “Honey, honey!” Suzie smiled brightly. She waved the phone in her hand and
exclaimed proudly, “My cousin said that he was the one who told them to send the money over!” “How
is that possible?” Franklin did not believe Suzie’s words. That rascal was avaricious. How would he be
willing to let someone have six million when he could have twenty million for himself? “Do you mean
that my cousin is a liar?” Suzie’s face darkened. “Franklin, how could you mistake my own cousin that
way? He was just trying to lend us a hand!” “Oh, Suzie! I don’t mean that!” Franklin quickly explained
when he saw his wife getting angry. “I mean, it’s a huge amount. It’s six million, not six thousand. Why

proudly and said, “My cousin and I grew up together!” She blinked and bit her lip. She said doubtfully,
“But it’s quite right too. Even if his wife was from a rich family, it’s six million…” Franklin could no longer
hold himself back anymore. “Suzie, do you think that Leonard could have changed his mind because of
Jay?” “What do you mean?” Suzie’s face darkened. She looked extremely disturbed. “I will give you
another chance to rephrase what you mean.” Franklin said scornfully, “Well, I mean, it has been such a
long time since we had any news about your cousin. He must have become very successful now. If not,
the gangsters would not have offered him so much money and land.” “Of course!” Suzie agreed
proudly. “He was nominated as the director of the Paramount Chamber of Commerce last month
because of his excellent performance!” Franklin frowned. Last month? Are they still in contact with each other? “I’m going to prepare dinner.” He turned around abruptly and went downstairs. “Hmph!” Suzie
wrinkled her nose as she watched her husband heading downstairs. “Well, I don’t like you talking about
your son too. So what if you don’t like me talking about my cousin?” At the same time, two Shadow
Rangers had stopped a young man in a suit and leather shoes under the big Rowan tree. “Who are you
looking for?” “Who are you?” The young man raised his head slightly and challenged the shadow
rangers. “Don’t you know who I am?” The Shadow Ranger who stood on the left said coldly.
“Unauthorized people are not allowed to trespass!” “Is this your home?” The young man glared at him
sideways and chided, “What can you do if I insist on going in?” The Shadow Ranger on the right did not
speak. He only took out a dagger and threw it out casually. The blade of the dagger poked into the tree
trunk with a ‘plop’. The young man swallowed his saliva hard. He looked afraid. He shrank his neck
embarrassedly. “It’s a misunderstanding! Just a misunderstanding! I’ve mistaken the wrong house.
Goodbye!” The man disappeared in the blink of an eye. The two Shadow Rangers exchanged glances.
They shook their heads and disappeared right that instant too. The young man, who was already in the
alley, glanced back in fear. He reached into his coat and felt the envelope filled with a thick stack of
cash. He pursed his lips embarrassedly. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. He looked like a weasel who had just
stolen a chicken. Then, he got into a car parked at the side of the road happily. At The Pavilion. In the
VVIP suite. “Boss!” Jerry pushed the door open. “I just received news that someone is hiring a driver for
my niece.” Hiring a driver for my daughter? Jacob, who was seated on the carpet, slowly opened his
eyes. “Who?” Jerry simply replied. “Moira Thornborough.” Moira Thornborough? Jacob frowned. A
while later, the picture of a young girl with two thick braids appeared in his mind. Naeve Warren‘s cousin, who likes to follow us? The pretty, quick-witted and carefree girl? Jacob smiled. How much
resentment did he have towards her in the past? However, it was understandable that he despised her
back then. She had always ruined the atmosphere between him and his girlfriend when they were on a
date. If she wasn’t the closest cousin his girlfriend had back then, he would have paid a huge sum of
money to get her kidnapped. He smiled gently as he recalled the memories he had from the past.
“Boss?” When Jerry saw the strange expression on his boss’ face, he called out to Jacob anxiously.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJacob quickly regained his cool when he heard Jerry. “Why is Moira hiring a driver for my daughter?
Because her grandfather injured his foot?” Jerry nodded. After a while later, he continued. “One more
thing. About half an hour ago, one of the officers from the Paramount Chamber of Commerce sent
someone to Rowan Lane. “Who? What did they do there?” Jacob had a cold look on his face. Jerry
dropped his hands to the side and glanced at him. “That person’s surname is Chegg. He went to your
place… That cousin… According to our investigation, he brought some money over. But the Shadow
Rangers stopped him before he could enter the house.” Cousin? A cold glint flashed across Jacob’s
eyes. After a moment of silence later, he waved his hand. There was a cold look on his face.
“Unauthorized people are not allowed to get near my house.” “Okay, Boss.” Jerry bowed his head. A
while later, he raised his head and spoke slowly through his gritted teeth. “Boss, there is something
else I’d like to report to you. But you cannot get agitated about it.” “Don’t beat around the bush. Tell
me.” Jacob closed his eyes slowly and took a deep breath. Jerry took a deep breath too before he
started to speak slowly. “According to the investigation done by the Shadow Rangers, as well as my
inference, there is something off about Ms. Warren’s death!” “I knew it!” The air froze at that instant.
Jacob stood up abruptly. There was a dangerous and murderous look in his eyes. It was as if he was
about to devour someone up at that moment! “What did you say?” Jacob widened his eyes. Anger
could clearly be sensed erupting from his being.
