Joseph’s eyes darkened, and he responded, “All right.”

Over there, the butler continued, “That person is an intern at Jingron Design, who hasn’t been working there for long. His name is Zachary Yarrow.
Most likely, someone bribed him to enter the company as a regular employee, and then he took Ms. Shepherd hostage. However, the person behind him is well-hidden, and we haven’t been able to find out who it is y
yet.”
Joseph sneered, there was no need to investigate the person behind all this.
He asked, “Is Chandler returning to Black Manor tonight?”
The butler replied, “Mr. Chandler didn’t return to Black Manor tonight. It’s quite strange, actually. As soon as you left,
I found out that he also went to Oceanview City. He should be around your area at this time. Would you like me to look into it further?”
Joseph said, “Go check where he is now.”
“All right,” came the response from over there.
Not long after hanging up the phone, Butler sent a message to Joseph: [Mr. Chandler has returned to his residence in Oceanview City’s Cloud Valley.]
Joseph glanced and a smile hooked at the corner of his lips.
As expected, they couldn’t keep calm and arrived just in time.
He put away his phone and responded to Deborah first.
Deborah must have already fallen asleep by now.
Joseph approached the bedside, carefully tucking in the blanket for her, and noticed that she seemed to be in a deep sleep.
She must be tired too, and talking about Alyssa’s situation made her a bit emotional.
It’s already the middle of the night, and most likely, they won’t wake up until daylight.
Joseph left the driver outside the ward to keep watch, while he himself left the hospital alone..
As he drove away from the hospital, his bodyguard had already caught Zachary and called him to ask how to handle. the situation.
Joseph’s eyes revealed a deep sense of indifference and coldness as he spoke, “Take the person to Cloud Valley, I’ll be there shortly.”
He had already warned Chandler once; if he messed with Deborah again, he would be digging his own grave.
Chandler has a sinister nature, but he is timid, especially afraid of Robert.
He saw that Joseph had arrived in Oceanview City and worried that Joseph might have discovered something.
So, in a hurry to catch up, the main reason was to quickly find Zachary and shut him up.
Secondly, he was thinking that if the matter really couldn’t be concealed any longer, Robert would want to punish him severely.
So now he’s hiding in Oceanview City, which is quite far from Richmond. At least he can hide for a while.

Once Robert’s anger subsides Is a few days, everything will probably be fine.
This mansion in Cloud Valley was actually a gift from Joseph to Chandler
The location here boasts stunning scenery Alter Joseph purchased this piece of land and built the Cloud Valley Mansion district, he kept two units for himself.
In order to show deep brotherly affection in front of his grandfather and father, he followed Deborah’s suggestion and presented chandler with one unit during the family feast a few days ago.
Speaking of which, this is also Chandler’s only property in Oceanview City.
Chandler was feeling restless and uneasy, in the mansion, as if there was a thorn in his back.
It really backfired, trying to force Deborah to call Joseph and make him leave the conference room halfway through. The plan tailed miserably.
Now, he was even more nervous, constantly feeling, that Joseph would find out and never let go.
He paced back and forth in the mansion’s living room, unable to contain his impatience any longer. Annoyed, he tossed the coffee mug back onto the coffee table and grabbed his phone to call Zachary directly.
It that kid dares to blabber nonsense, he’ll tear his mouth apart!
As a result, when he made the call, he heard the ringtone of the mobile phone, sounding right outside the living room at the entrance door.
Chandler’s face faltered, thinking he must have misheard.
Upon looking outside, the entrance door, which had originally been locked from the inside, was now wide open.
At the wide open entrance, the man standing there with a panicked expression was none other than Zachary, the very person Chandler was about to call.
Chandler was genuinely flustered for a moment, not even realizing what was going on.
He thought he must have remembered the door incorrectly, that it had been open all along, and he had forgotten that this place was still Joseph’s property.
Seeing Zachary rushing over like this, he thought that the young man must be in a hurry to ask for money.
Chandler was furious, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he yelled, “Who told you to come here? Who told you I live here?”
Zachary’s face turned even paler, and he took a step to the side.
Joseph’s somber voice rang out from behind, “I brought him here.”
Chandler’s body stiffened abruptly, staring in disbelief as Joseph walked in behind Zachary, accompanied by a few bodyguards.
Chandler arrived in Oceanview City, sneaking around as he had done something wrong and felt guilty. That’s why he had a driver with him.
As Joseph entered, he casually swiped Zachary’s phone from his pocket and looked towards Chandler.
“You know, the number on this is yours.”
Chandler’s lips quivered for a moment before he managed to squeeze out a smile. “Joseph, how did you get here? Oh, this is Zac, right? Zac works for your company, doesn’t he?
I’ve met him twice before and happened to save his number. Since I just arrived in Oceanview City and wasn’t familiar with the place, I couldn’t get through to you, so I thought I’d ask him for some help.”
Joseph looked at him and laughed, saying, “There’s no need to put on an act with me, since I won’t believe you
anyway.”
Chandler’s face stiffened with panic, “Joseph, what are you talking about? I just came to Oceanview City to take care of some business. What are you saying? Has something happened?”
Joseph’s gaze shifted downward, landing on the pair of legs supporting the person before him. “Weren’t you always in a wheelchair? You were still sitting in it during the day. How come you’re walking now?”
Chandler’s face turned pale with panic, “He started to improve a while ago, and he can occasionally walk around
now.”
As he spoke, he immediately turned around to sit back down on the couch.
Joseph suddenly closed the distance in a few quick strides, grabbed him by the shoulders from behind, and brought him down to the ground in an instant.
Chandler had always pretended to have a disability in both legs because everyone believed that it was Joseph who had caused his injury years ago.
So even though his legs had healed long ago, he still enjoyed sitting in a wheelchair in front of others, without telling
anyone.
Because of this, sitting for long periods of time has led to a lack of exercise for the body.
Now, with just a bit of effort from Joseph, he found himself extremely clumsily falling to the ground.
With a loud thudding sound, his body slammed onto the ground. He lay there like a limp shrimp, unable to move for quite some time as his vision went dark.
