After Reborn, I Become a Billionaire novel Chapter 537

Chapter 537 The Capital (1) Melvin Balderston

Hannah stared at Theodore in a daze.

Theodore said hurriedly, "Last year, I gave Oscar a limited-edition mobile phone for his birthday. I went to Country M and waited in line to buy it for him. It hadn't been released in the country yet."

Manuel promptly turned to look at Hannah and asked, "Did Oscar say 'mobile phone'?"

"It should be that one." Hannah thought for a moment and affirmed.

"So, what he means is that evidence is in his phone."

"Oh, why didn't I think of that?" Theodore patted his head and said solemnly, "I should have thought of that earlier. Apart from his computer, it could be found on his phone!"

"It's easy to find what's stored in the phone," Manuel said, "We haven't thought about that, but the most dangerous place is the safest place. Besides, there are many hidden apps on the phone. I've installed them for Oscar before, and I've forgotten about it."

He also became unavoidably remorseful.

"Now, we should get Oscar's phone." Said Hannah. The next move was decided.

"Oscar's computer, mobile phone, and other items have been confiscated. If we get them through formal procedures, they will suspect us. It will attract their attention. If we don't go through the regular procedures..." Manuel looked at Theodore and asked, "Is there any other way we can get Oscar's phone?"

"I don't know. I should ask my dad." Theodore said, "I heard that the one who framed Oscar was one of the time-honored strong powers. When I was imprisoned in River Town, my father went there personally and sought personal connections, but it was useless. In the end, I had to wait for so many days before coming out. They might not care about our feelings. I do want to turn to my father, and he might be willing to help us. I'm afraid it might backfire if I'm not careful."

"That is to say, neither the overt nor the covert solution is useful right now."

"Then we should not do that in our ways." Hannah made up her mind.

"What do you mean?" asked Manuel.

"The fact that Oscar didn't commit a crime is obvious. We don't need to investigate the truth anymore. As long as we go to trial and present tour evidence, we can prove his innocence." Hannah said to them. "So what we need is not evidence. What we need is a fair trial."

"Talk about your arrangement." Manuel agreed with her.

"The Collins family is so powerful now. Whoever they protect will be able to thrive. To put it bluntly, the mastermind behind this matter must be Charles. The Collins is supporting him. Besides, the family was the judge for Oscar. Even if we win the lawsuit and Oscar is acquitted, the person who framed him is still at large! Is it worth all that Oscar has suffered?"

"It's not worth it!" Theodore said viciously, "I want to get Charles out now and chop him into pieces!"

"Right, it's not worth it. More importantly, we cannot remove the perils. We might manage to escape this time. What about next time?" Hannah looked at them, "We must make Charles suffer this time and give the Collins family a heavy blow! We should tell them clearly that we should not be trifled with!"

"I couldn't agree more!" Theodore was very excited.

He was trembling with excitement at the thought of that scene.

"And now, the one who can deal with the Collins family is ..." Hannah wanted to say the name but finally stopped.

"The Balderston family." Said Manuel.

Hannah nodded.

Theodore's face darkened, "The Balderston family is also not necessarily kind."

"Yes, there is no such thing as a good man at the peak of power. But as long as interests are aligned, consensus can be reached."

Theodore frowned.

"The seemingly peaceful two great families have been lurking in the shadows for years. The Balderston family has been absent on numerous occasions, not because they have made a genuine compromise with the Collins, but because there is no single fuse. Anything the two big families rashly work on will be used against themselves. And the more powerful the person, the more important reputation is. Otherwise, it's hard to be convincing. What we are doing for the Balderston family is a plausible reason to confront the Collins family head-on."

"You want to turn to the Balderston to deal with this problem?" Theodore exclaimed.

He didn't think that the affair would involve these two great families.
