“What?”
As expected, Karl was equally shocked. “Why do you want me to look into her all of a sudden? Does Mr. Hayes know something?”
“I guess so. He wants you to figure how that woman fell.”
The bodyguard truthfully told Karl what he heard from Sebastian.
Only then Karl understood the situation.
After Jocelyn got into the accident, Janice stopped visiting the Oceanic Estate. When he tried looking for her, everyone said she fell while looking for Jocelyn.
Then, he stopped checking.
No one in the Oceanic Estate paid attention to it, including Jonathan.
However, now that Sebastian knew about it, what does it say?
It was straightforward. When someone wants to hide something, she would typically be jumpier.
As she would be scared and worried, she would constantly try to prove her innocence, thinking it was safer with more people learning about it.
Yet, she failed to realize that it would create more doubts too.
Besides, she was foolish enough to make it known to Sasha, who was with Sebastian, one of the men with the highest IQ in Jadeborough.
The realization made Karl livid.
“That bit*h! I will expose her secrets, then come back to chat with you,” he huffed.
“Oh, why are you with Mr. Hayes? I thought you were transferred to the research institute when he disbanded SteelFort. Why are you out again?” Before they ended the call, Karl curiously asked.
By then, Xayden no longer wanted to talk to him.
With a stoic expression, he did not hesitate to end the call. Therefore, he did not hear Karl’s nagging, telling him not to fight as it did not suit him.
After all, who would take a researcher from an assassin organization out without reason? Even Frederick would not do that.
Yet, Sebastian did it.
They had been in the air for about three hours when they finally looked down to see a cold and barren desert with little huts.
“Mr. Hayes, we have arrived,” Xayden informed him after seeing where they were.
Sebastian nodded in acknowledgement.
