Jameson said, "Answer me first."
Sharon frowned and said a few seconds later, "When Josh died, I found something in the box under his bed."
"What are inside?"
"A few photos, a pocket watch, and Josh's diary."
"What kind of pocket watch?"
Sharon said, "It's just an ordinary pocket watch.Should there be any difference?"
"Of course there's a difference.The manufacturer and batch number are useful clues." Jameson said.
Hearing this, Sharon parted her lips but didn't say anything.
Jameson stared at her for a few seconds and pursed his lips.
"Don't you want to find the truth?"
After a while, Sharon looked down and said, "I just feel it meaningless."
"Sharon, this is not about if it is meaningful or not.It's about that you should know the truth."
"What's the point in knowing the truth? I just want to live a peaceful life."
This was Sharon's greatest wish ever since she could remember.
In the past, Josh messed up the family.
Creditors occasionally came, shouting and swearing outside.
She could only lock the door tightly and hug Ruben in her arms, not daring to make a sound.
Later she met Jameson, who made her messy life even worse.
She was unfamiliar with that man and had no memories of him.
Rather than investigating why her mother married Josh twenty years ago, she preferred living in peace.
Jameson said, "This is not an excuse for you to escape.Although sometimes the truth is crueler than reality, I will always be by your side."
Sharon was slightly surprised.
Could this jerk not change the subject so abruptly? Jameson continued, "Even if you don't care about what the truth is, a series of things have already happened consequently.How can those who are involved be able to detach themselves from this?"
"I don't understand what Mr.Proctor means.’
"Did you see Talon today?"
Sharon did not know why he suddenly mentioned Natalia’s father.
After a pause, she said, "Yes."
Jameson said, "Have you ever thought about why Ruben didn't hear anything after sending out so many fliers?"
Sharon frowned and was even more confused.
Previously, when Ruben was about to do this, she had never thought that there would be any news.
Hearing what Jameson had said, it seemed that there was indeed something strange.
After thinking for a while, she didn't answer but asked, "Mr.Proctor hasn't told me how you knew that?"
Jameson tapped his knee with his fingers, "I have told you that there's nothing in this world that money can't do."
"Then I have nothing to say to Mr.Proctor.Goodbye."
Just as Sharon got up, Jameson grabbed her hand and laughed, "Alright, I tell you.I discovered it while investigating Talon."
