"The child died not long after he was born. I came to you to help find out the cause of his death," Jane said.
"I see. But many people can do this. Why bother to come to me and pay such a high price?"
Obviously, it was easy to find out the cause as long as he got the child's medical records. The remuneration she offered was reasonable.
The Big Boss was clear minded
Maybe there was another reason why she came to see him.
"I'm sorry, but I was a little exaggerating before. I was mainly afraid that you would reject me. After all, not everyone can go to the hospital where the child died to get the information."
Jane explained.
"Oh, then I'd like to know what kind of hospital it is. One can't even check the case. It's supposed to be accessible without spending a penny."
"You're joking. If it's so simple, why should I bother you?"
Jane felt it was time to tell him about the Williams Hospital.
She knew no one could figure it out as long as Oliver was behind.
After all, for Oliver, he had thought that Lambert was the father of that child.
No matter what, he would not let Lambert's child live in this world.
Little did he know that he was the father.
But Jane couldn't tell anyone about it.
If the child died in Oliver's hands, she must let him live in pain for the rest of his life.
Her face darkened and she said, "The child died in Williams Hospital."
"Williams Hospital, the hospital of the Williams Family. Of course, it is not that easy to get in. It seems that you're not so generous," said the man.
"You think my money is earned effortlessly? I won't squander it unscrupulously. I only pay something worthy."
"I can help you find out the cause of death of the child, and I'll be okay with the five hundred thousand dollars as the remuneration. Take it as a gift. And we are friends now."
Vivian looked at Jane, who remained calm.
She said, "Thank you. Well, if you find it a little difficult to investigate later, I don't mind offering more."
The gangster laughed. "Miss Kim, since you're so sincere. I won't go back on my word. 500,000, it's a deal."
"I don't want to, and I won't take your generosity as a favor," Jane joked.
Their conversations were thought-provoking.
Perhaps that was the conversations between masters.
"Who are the parents of that child?" asked the gangster.
Jane didn't expect him to agree to the condition before he had a clear understanding of it.
"I don't know about the father, but his mother is Jessica," Jane said word by word.
She spoke very slowly, mainly trying to see if there was any change in the man's face.
She wondered if he sent someone to kill Jessica back then.
If that was the case, he would never be unfamiliar with Jessica's name.
"Jessica," he repeated.
"Yes, Jessica." So did Jane.
"Jessica is a nice name," said the gangster, and he began to chant again. "There are tangerines in the south of the Yangtze River river, as green as ever in winter."
Jane was surprised that he chanted "Feelings" from a famous poet.
