“I refused to let them enter, but Mrs. Lenoir’s sister claimed that Mr. Beckham had come to confront Raymond about some past issues. She also warned us that we would be in serious trouble if we angered Mr. Beckham.”

Mr. Kolson looked down as he spoke, not daring to meet Damien’s gaze. “I wanted to call you, but your phone had no signal. I tried several times but couldn’t get through.”

“Mrs. Lenoir’s sister kept pressuring me… so I let them in. I thought they couldn’t attempt anything with Raymond as long as we were there. But I didn’t expect…”

Mr. Kolson pointed to a stranger restrained by two bodyguards in a corner. “I didn’t expect the man Mrs. Lenoir’s sister brought was not Mr. Beckham, but a skilled impersonator.”

“After this man entered, he lay in bed pretending to be Raymond. Meanwhile, Mrs. Lenoir’s sister left with the real Raymond.” Mr. Kolson’s voice grew softer as he spoke. He could not believe he had made such a mistake.

Damien closed his eyes and took out his phone, saying, “Zachary, I need a favor. Can you block the traffic in Ziphon? I need to find someone.”

Zachary did not ask any questions but responded, “Sure.”

After hanging up the phone, Greg, the butler, rushed to Damien. “I’ve obtained the surveillance footage. They headed towards the harbor, most likely to board a smuggler’s boat.”

Greg paused before continuing, “I checked further. The most recent smuggler’s boat set sail half an hour ago. Raymond probably left on that boat.”

Damien closed his eyes, a cold smile forming on his face. “So, it was a diversion.”

He now knew with certainty that Gwenn was the client Jarvi mentioned. However, her main goal was not to harm them. Instead, it was to prevent him and Cherise from returning to the hospital.

Furthermore, Damien believed Mr. Kolson had indeed tried to call him, and the fact that his phone had no signal was probably true. After all, if Gwenn could hire so many people to trouble him and Cherise, she could easily install a few signal-blocking devices near the stall.
