"Mr. Mu, I've finished the investigation...with your father's help. Here's the report." Luke hesitated for a moment. Since Edward said he didn't want his father to intervene, Luke didn't ask Jonathan for help. However, Jonathan found out and offered the information to him. Luke wasn't sure whether Edward would accept that or not.
"Did you go to him for help?" Edward absently asked Luke while scanning through the report. Luke couldn't see any emotions on Edward's face and this made him nervous.
"No. He noticed what I've been working on and..." Luke knew Edward. He wouldn't ask for his father's help, no matter what. That was why he cared where the information came from.
"Nevermind if he insisted to help. He saved us a lot of time" Edward sneered and replied casually. While reading the report, he frowned at the findings. He had been wondering for a long time why Leo thought that Daisy wasn't his daughter. It turned out that there was a huge conspiracy against Daisy! Despite the rage he felt at this moment, Edward had to admit that he was impressed by how thoroughly the culprit had planned to harm Daisy.
Luke sighed in relief as he heard Edward's words. As long as Edward didn't blame him for accepting Jonathan's help, it would be fine. To be honest, Luke had no idea why Edward and Jonathan behaved like arch enemies instead of father and son. It seemed like they were ready for a duel every time they met.
"This report seems old. Did he acquire it a long time ago?" With his eyes still fixed on the report, Edward asked Luke again. He finally felt at ease when he noticed something in the document. Although he had guessed the answer, he needed a proof in black and white. Luckily he found the truth, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to face Daisy.
"Yes. father said he had The Mayfly look into it a long time ago. But the critical evidence was overturned by the direct party, so the investigation was suspended thereafter." Luke sincerely conveyed everything he had learned from Jonathan as he carefully observed Edward's look.
"Really? Even they couldn't find more evidence? How strange. So the case is unsolved till date?" Edward tossed the paper aside and leaned back with a sneer, 'Things are getting more and more interesting.'
"Not unless the direct party decides to stand out and testify." Luke agreed with a nod. Gazing at Edward with great interest, he wondered what Edward was going to do in the current situation. He had worked for Edward for years, and he understood what kind of person Edward really was. Edward was always excited to take up challenging tasks.
"Great. Then I'll have to meet this shameless woman." Edward casually fidgeted his pen while narrowing his eyes, his lips curled into a sneer again. 'Yakira, right? We're going to have so much fun!' Edward thought to himself.
