Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1299

“I guess that’s the end of our conversation, huh?”

Fabian knew it was merely something Jaxon made up to justify the aid he had been providing Yvette.

“Mr. Norton, there’s nothing I can do about it—”

Jaxon was about to explain himself, but he received a call out of the blue.

Upon a glance, he noticed it was a call from his most trusted aide. He told Fabian, “I’m so sorry, Mr. Norton. I need to answer this.”

After Fabian beckoned him to carry on, Jaxon picked it up and asked, “Hello? What’s wrong?”

“Sir, we’re in a huge trouble!”

“What do you mean?” Jaxon asked with a frown when he heard his subordinate’s words.

The person on the other end gasped out his reply. “The higher-ups have dispatched a task force to arrest Mr. Alder and Mr. Hobbs after receiving a call from a certain powerful figure. After a round of investigation, they were taken into custody.”

“Are you sure?”

Jaxon’s pupil constricted in fear because only the members of a limited few renowned families could get in touch with his higher-ups.

“Alright.”

After wrapping up the conversation and hanging up the call, Jaxon looked Fabian in the eyes, wondering if it was one of his attempts to intimidate him.

Despite being clueless about the content of Jaxon’s conversation, Fabian smiled in return as it was evident Jaxon was irked because of something.

After falling silent for a few minutes, Jaxon took the initiative and denoted, “Mr. Norton, I’m impressed by the things you have done to warn me to mind my own business.”
