Hope It's Not Too Late to Love novel Chapter 655

Chapter 655

Jasmine finally kept her mouth shut after hearing Thomas' words. They had no choice but to follow his plan.

…

In the meantime, Eddie showed up at the police station a while after Yvonne was brought in for investigation. "What are you doing here?" Yvonne's voice was calm and peaceful, but her gaze was full of disdain. Eddie was the last person she wanted to see right then—there was an obviously vile look on his face.

He grinned at her. "I'm here to work with you, of course." Then, he took a look at his surroundings. "What a coincidence. You were in this room the last time as well. How did you end up here again?"

"Are you here to watch me make a fool out of myself?" Yvonne shot Eddie an annoyed glare. How dare a shady guy like Eddie make fun of me? she thought.

"Why would I do that?" He denied her accusations. "I'm genuinely here to work with you. Judging by your current capabilities, you're no match for them at all." She sneered at his words. "Are you saying that you have a plan?" He was defeated by Vania as well, and he doesn't have any way of getting back at her either, right?

"Neither one of us has a plan right now, but if we work together, we might be able to figure something out," he said to her. "Hah! How can two failures make one success? What idea do you have in mind?" Yvonne eyed the other man curiously. She didn't look like she trusted him at all.

"Well, the more, the merrier, right?" Eddie uttered half-heartedly. He didn't tell her much about what was going on in his mind.

"You should stop talking to me as if you're trying to fool a kid," she replied. He's not being sincere at all—how dare he tell me that he wants to work with me? It seems more like he's trying to use me, Yvonne thought. I don't mind being defeated on my own, but I will not allow anyone to benefit from my downfall.

"Are you saying that you don't want to work with me?" Eddie seemed convinced that she wasn't interested. However, he still had a feeling that they could come up with something if they teamed up. "Well, you can see yourself out since you know my answer. I'm afraid you'll never get a chance to recover your reputation if word got out that you visited me," Yvonne replied.

"You're right. I should leave now." Even though Eddie's words made him sound like he was concerned, there wasn't a hint of worry on his face. After all, he was here to figure out who the spy was. His whereabouts had been exposed the last time he stepped foot in the police station. So, this time, he wanted to come over to figure out who the traitor was.

Eddie didn't seem dejected even though Yvonne no longer paid any attention to him. "I'd like you to think more about it, Miss Kepler. I'll always be available for a partnership," he uttered in a determined voice. Then, he walked out of the station and got in his car before addressing Brandon. "Did you manage to find the traitor?"

"Our men are all in their spots. There are no irregular actions on their part," Brandon said while shaking his head.

"Is that so?" Eddie frowned. How could this be?

"Could it be someone from the police force?" Brandon asked after thinking about it for a moment. They had only managed to go in to meet Yvonne after bribing the police, after all.

But Eddie shook his head. "That's impossible. We've all concealed our true identities. If the police were to expose me for anything, they'd still refer to me as the false identity I provided and not my true identity."

"So, the people who exposed the truth must know who we truly are," Brandon concluded.

"That's right. I want you to get people to monitor this situation. We'll see if anyone exposes us soon," Eddie ordered. Brandon nodded in agreement before looking at his boss worriedly. "Sir, wouldn't we lose another opportunity if we get exposed again?"
