Chapter 1377 Investigation

"Indeed, Ryan met Evelyn. They had an open conversation in my villa's living room. Before that, he made sure to dismiss the maids from the room." Colton nodded, speaking calmly as he recounted what he had observed on the surveillance footage.

Beryl's brow furrowed; he found Ryan's approach peculiar. Yet, he maintained a faint smile on his lips as he responded, "He must be feeling quite anxious now. You intentionally let your uncle expose the flaw in his scheme that you had discovered. That's why he's panicking. Someone like Ryan wouldn't blindly follow Kendrick's orders, especially when Kendrick is in Florend and can't directly influence matters within the country."

Colton nodded in agreement. In such situations, Beryl and he seemed to share an unspoken understanding; it was a silent connection they both relished.

"Evelyn is quite clever. However, I can't quite comprehend why she would reject Ryan's proposal," Beryl suddenly expressed his confusion, finding it hard to fathom. He had to admit that Ryan was skilled at winning people over; every reason he had presented to Evelyn had struck a chord within her heart without needing further unnecessary persuasion.

For a moment, the room fell silent, just as it always did, and neither of them spoke.

Beryl wasn't in a hurry to get his question answered. He simply gazed intently at Colton.

"Didn't Ryan betray her once before? He told me how he and Evelyn conspired to poison Nicole, which forced Nicole and me to divorce." Colton spoke after a prolonged silence. His tone was heavy, as if recounting a monumental event.

Beryl nodded in response, refraining from further inquiry. At this point, he had pieced together enough information. He had a general idea of what was happening, and he felt reasonably confident about what would come next.

"I understand. I have some matters to attend to as well. I'll take my leave, and if you need anything, feel free to message me on the phone," Beryl said, sighing slightly as he looked at Colton, who was still lost in thought. He turned and left the room.
