When Tyler learned that the Ito family was going to help Charlie search for Jasmine and investigate the incident, he was scared out of his wits even though he was 2000 kilometers away. 4
There was no perfect crime in this world. When they planned to kill Jasmine, all they had thought of was to leave all the clues and trails in Japan so that everyone would think that Jasmine had perished in Japan and that they had nothing to do with it.
However, once it was known that they were related to Jasmine's death or even found out that they were the masterminds behind it, it would be a big problem.
Not only would they have to face the wrath of Lord Moore, but the domestic law enforcement agencies would not let them go so easily either. Although the crime had been committed abroad, the victim was an Oskian, and the local laws could be applied to arrest and charge them. 3
Moreover, once people knew that it was them who had murdered Jasmine, their reputation and that of the entire Moore family would certainly be ruined. By then, even if they managed to be cleared of all charges, they would be the public's enemies for what they had done! 3
Thinking of this, Tyler quickly made up his mind and said, "Reuben, if you come back now, Charlie will
certainly know that there's something wrong with you. If he calls your grandfather, with your grandfather’s shrewdness, he would immediately connect all the links, and by then, you'll be in a bigger dilemma!"
Reuben sobbed nervously, "Dad, what should I do now? The Ito family is too powerful. With their help, the whole matter will come to light in a few days! By then, I'll be done!" 4
