Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 962

On his way to the dressing room, the phone in his pocket rang. Without stopping in his tracks, Toby took his phone out and answered the call after taking a glance at the caller ID. "What is it?"

Upon hearing Toby's question, the caller, Tom, immediately answered, "The person we've set to keep an eye on Connor Salzburg has just sent word that he has gone out this afternoon."

"Where to?" Toby's expression turned gloomy.

At the other end of the line, Tom adjusted his glasses before he replied, "Campbell Residence."

"Campbell Residence?" Toby narrowed his eyes. "Why would he go there? Does Connor have connections with the Campbell Family?"

The Campbell Family was a longstanding family that had settled in Seafield hundreds of years ago. They were different from all the other merchant families, as they were a family of scholars. Furthermore, with each and every one of the Campbells keeping a low profile and practicing restraint, their reputation in Seafield was exceptional. They wouldn't get too acquainted with the other families as well. In short, the Campbell Family gave off an aura of independence unlike the other families in Seafield.

However, everything had its exceptions, as the Fuller Family was on decent terms with the Campbell Family. The main reason for this was that the late Old Master of the Campbell Family had worked under Toby's grandfather, Norman, as a security officer.

During the warring era, Old Master Campbell once took a bullet for Norman. Although the bullet would not have been fatal, as it wasn't aimed at either the head or heart of Norman, Old Master Campbell's action in using his own body to block a bullet for others was courageous like no other. It was for this reason that the Fuller Family had always looked out for the Campbell Family. Furthermore, Toby knew the Campbells well, including their interpersonal relationships. Besides the Fuller Family, it was unlikely for the Campbell Family to have a connection with the Salzburg Family.

However, the fact that Connor had gone to the Campbell Family made Toby reconsider his understanding of the Campbells. He had even considered that they had hidden their connection to Connor and that they were connected right from the start. Should that be the case, Toby would have to consider whether to continue supporting and looking out for the Campbell Family.

Although Old Master Campbell had taken a bullet for Norman, this debt had been repaid by the Fuller Family. In the past, Norman had bailed the Campbells when they were forced to the farms, as they were marked as a scholar family. It was at that time that the Fullers had fully repaid their debt to the Campbells. As for the reason why the Fuller Family continued to look out for them, it was merely out of the friendship between Norman and Old Master Campbell. After all, the Fullers were fully capable of supporting the Campbells and were never skimpy with them.

Decades passed, and supporting the Campbell Family had become a habit that the Fullers did not bother to change. However, if the Campbells went behind Toby's back and got involved with Connor Salzburg, then they would see just how merciless Toby could be. Toby could be merciful in giving his support to them, but he could absolutely not tolerate the people under his protection to be secretly in contact with someone that the Fuller Family had problems with. This was the very action of biting the hands that fed them!

Tom, on the other end of the line, knew not of what was on his president's mind, but he could hear the change in Toby's tone when he had reported to him that Connor had gone to the Campbell Family. After all, Tom was privy to the relationship between the Fuller Family and the Campbell Family.

"Don't worry, President Fuller. They do not have a connection with each other," Tom hurriedly replied while he shook his head, as he did not wish for Toby to misunderstand the situation. "I am aware of what you're worried about. After I'd gotten word that Connor went to the Campbell Residence, I immediately investigated whether the Campbell Family had ever been in contact with Connor all these years. In the end, the result of the investigation was that the Campbells did not have any contact with any other families besides the Fullers. It is unlikely that Connor has been in contact with them prior to this."

When he heard his assistant's explanation, Toby's darkened expression softened slightly. "Good.” It seems that the Campbell Family has kept their loyalty and did not wrong us, Toby thought. "Did you find out why Connor went to the Campbell Residence?" he asked with his lips pursed.

Tom nodded. "Naturally. Since I’ve determined that they have no prior connection, I would naturally turn my investigation to the reason Connor went to the Campbell Residence."
