Chapter 1223 Stay Here Forever
“Uh…” The corners of Sean’s mouth twitched, and he gave a bark of laughter a moment later. “Okay, I’ll admit that I misspoke. But Nat, I’m serious. I’m not going to propose any stipulation this time, so you don’t have to pay any price for me to help you investigate the matter. As you know, I love you. It’s only natural to do something for someone you love, yes? Thus, just say the word. As long you ask me for help, I’ll agree right away. That’s not difficult for you, no? Besides, it’ll be of no consequence to you.”
“You’re right. It’s indeed simple to do so, but it’ll still be of some consequence to me. I don’t dare to lower my guard with you. Regardless of whether you’re sincere or have an ulterior motive, I don’t believe you. Hence, I don’t like you helping to investigate the matter.” After saying that coldly with her eyes trained on the man, Natalie strode out of the dining room.
Sean didn’t stop her from leaving either. Only after she had disappeared into the living room did he shrug helplessly. “Ah, this feeling of being distrusted doesn’t feel all that good!”
Every high-ranking member of that organization had an identity badge, and each had a unique serial number.
If one misplaced his badge, he needed to report it to the organization and apply for a new one. Therefore, it wasn’t difficult to find out whether any of the high-ranking members misplaced theirs.
Hearing that, the person on the other end of the phone nodded and assented, “Got it, Mr. Thompson.”
“Anyway, the investigation must be conducted secretly. When you’ve got the answer, report to me immediately,” Sean ordered while adjusting his glasses.
Jacqueline came out of the kitchen soon after he put down his cell phone after the call ended. The instant she saw that he was alone in the dining room without Natalie, she sneered with her face contorted into a mask of scorn, “Aren’t you going to leave with Natalie when she has left?”
