Chapter 310 Who Was the Leak?
Jewel had gone to the same high school as Scarlett.
Dudley still remembered Jewel’s first day back from school. She’d been glowing with excitement.
Her eyes shining, she’d rushed up to him and said, “Guess who I ran into at school!”
He’d asked, “Who?”
Jewel beamed. “Scarlett! I ran into Scarlett! I’ve missed her so much. When she moved to the city to study before, she didn’t even have a phone, so we lost contact. We haven’t seen each other for three whole years! I never expected we’d end up at the same high school again. I’m so happy, bro. Now Scarlett and I can go to school together again.”
Back then, he’d been genuinely happy for Jewel.
But for some reason, Jewel’s attitude toward Scarlett gradually worsened afterward.
By the end, it had almost turned into outright hostility.
Thinking back on it now, Dudley couldn’t help feeling troubled.
Could it really have been Jewel who leaked the family’s astrological chart?
But that didn’t make sense.
Jewel wasn’t that unreliable.
How could she casually reveal their grandparents‘ astrological chart?
If someone asked for your grandparents‘ astrological chart, wouldn’t that immediately feel strange?
He couldn’t shake the feeling that something about this whole situation was off. He couldn’t quite explain it–just a strong sense that something wasn’t right.
Tad happened to glance at his son at that moment and said, “Dudley, do you think it could be Jewel? But even if it was her, who would she give your grandparents‘ astrological chart to?
“If someone asked her for their astrological chart, she’d just hand it over? Wouldn’t that strike her as strange?
“Why don’t we call her first and ask? Maybe someone tricked her into giving them your grandparents‘ astrological chart.”
Even he couldn’t help thinking that if anyone in the Macks had leaked his parents‘ astrological chart, the most likely person was his youngest daughter, Jewel.
Dudley said, “Alright. I’ll call Jewel and ask.”
Scarlett simply watched them and didn’t interrupt.

But this wasn’t something she should be the one to say. The Macks needed to investigate it themselves.
And it wouldn’t be hard to find out.
After all, they had the astrological chart.
Tad said, “Wait. Let me call your uncles first and let them know what’s going on.”
He didn’t want to wrongly accuse his daughter. He wanted to ask Darren and Travis first, in case someone else had somehow gotten hold of their parents‘ astrological chart.
After all, Darren worked in politics, and Travis was in business.
Both of them could easily have made enemies.
Not many people knew his parents‘ astrological chart, but it wasn’t an absolute secret either. If someone really wanted to find out, they could probably track it down.
And Darren had connections. Maybe he could even figure out whose astrological chart had been used.
Tad first called Darren and explained what had happened.
After listening, Darren replied seriously, “Tad, honestly, even if I had political rivals or someone trying to
ake me down, they wouldn’t use something like this.
There are far too few oracles nowadays who actually understand the occult. It would also be very hard for hem to know the exact details of our family, let alone set up something like this to steal our family’s Fortune.
Sure, our family’s fortune is decent. But compared to the top elite families in Jyncrest City, it’s nothing pecial. If someone really had the ability to pull off something this elaborate just because they hated me and wanted to target our family… wouldn’t that be overkill?”
Working in politics, Darren knew that some people believed in these things. But truly capable oracles were extremely rare.
He had once accompanied someone to visit a respected monk.
That monk had said the world was now in the age of spiritual decline. It wasn’t just spiritual energy that was drying up–many kinds of resources were fading away. No one knew what kind of era would come
next.
The monk had also said that from observing the celestial signs, it seemed as though a great disaster might be approaching the world, yet hidden within it was also a sign of salvation. But the signs were vague and impossible to fully interpret.
At the time, Darren had listened in confusion. By the end, it almost sounded like the monk was telling some kind of fantasy story.
Even though he didn’t fully understand it, he did grasp one point–the monk meant that truly powerful oracles were incredibly rare now. Cultivation was simply too difficult.
8:30 am Pppp.

So if someone really had the ability to pull off something this complicated, using it solely to target him would be absurd.
There were far casier ways to drag him down from his position.
After saying that, Darren continued, “Tad, here’s what we’ll do. Don’t call Travis just yet. My guess is that this person simply wants our family’s fortune. Maybe they haven’t found a better one yet.
“The most likely scenario is that they know our family well–someone familiar with us. They might’ve even tricked one of our family members into revealing Dad and Mom’s astrological chart. You understand what I mean, right?
“So whoever did this must be quite close to someone in our family. Instead of chasing who leaked the chart, we should first investigate the astrological chart of the person who stole our fortune. The sigil on in includes their birthdate.
“Check everyone in our hometown city who shares that birthdate. If any familiar names show up, we’ll know right away…”
It was clear why Darren had been able to rise in politics—his mind worked fast.
Tad finally understood as well.
Right now, there was no need to focus on finding out who had leaked his parents‘ astrological chart first.
