This was Charlie’s intention.After all, Elaine was not just Elaine but also Charlie’s mother-in-law. Even if this matter was finally resolved in the end, Charlie did not want others to know that his mother-in-law had been involved in such a ridiculous and absurd scam. On one hand, he could not afford to lose this person, and on the other hand, if this matter were to end up becoming a big deal and Elaine was known at an international level, as her son-in-law, people might also end up investigating him.Therefore, Charlie’s request was to solve this problem in a low-profile manner instead of making too much action.The reason why Jakel had said that was also to attack instead of defending. People like Jakel knew that he could never let his opponent know of his true demands.Once his opponent found out that he did not want this matter to be exposed, the opponent would definitely use this matter to test his bottom line. So, instead of that, it would be better for him to countera
No one had treated Elaine with respect ever since her arrest.The combination of her injury and fear had caused a great negative impact on her body and mind.When Elaine saw Jakel speaking so respectfully to her now, she instantly burst into tears with excitement.She cried as she said extremely aggrievedly, “They not only hit me and scolded me, but they also threatened and intimidated me... I already told them many times that I was deceived and I did not know what was in that suitcase, but they were still very impatient with me as if I’m a criminal... They are simply too much...”When the division chief who was aside heard this, he was stunned, and he rebuked immediately, “B*stards! Why didn’t you send Madam Elaine to the hospital in time?! Why did you continue interrogating Madam Elaine even though you knew that she was injured?! Besides, how did Madam Elaine even get injured, and who caused it? Step forward now and tell me clearly!”Everyone was so nervous that they did not kn
After Jim had left, the division chief hurriedly looked at Jakel with a flattering expression and said, “Mr. White, I will arrange for someone to take Madam Elaine to go see a doctor first. I will also communicate with my superiors about the media and ask them not to notify the media about this matter for the time being. We should be unified to keep silent before the media first. As you know, there are also too many issues related to racial discrimination in American society now, and there are also various continuous protests going on. So, we should not be adding chaos to the general environment. What do you think?”Jakel glanced at the division chief and said lightly, “If you can give my client enough humanitarian treatment, I can keep this matter from the media for the time being, but I also reserve the right to notify the media.”When the division chief heard this, he finally heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “In that case, we will arrange medical treatment for Madam Ela
As Jakel was accompanying Elaine to the hospital, Charlie was on his way to New York.Jakel reported the situation to Jordan promptly, and Jordan then reported the situation to Charlie immediately. According to Jakel, he would only be able to apply for one to two days of hospital treatment time for Elaine at most, but Elaine would have to attend the preliminary hearing after the hospital treatment was over. During the preliminary hearing, the judge would make a ruling on whether Elaine could be released on bail based on the general circumstances of the case. If she could be released on bail, the judge would give a bail amount, and as long as the money was available, she would be able to temporarily regain her freedom.However, according to Jakel, the amount of contraband involved in Elaine’s case was too large, so bail was basically impossible. This meant that Elaine would temporarily be held in a detention center after the preliminary hearing.Similarly, the United States a
Charlie then said again, “There is one more thing.”Porter said respectfully, “Mr. Wade, please speak up.”Charlie said seriously, “Help me investigate an Oskian person named Lucy Cardy in Providence. She looks like she’s in her fifties, and I believe she is using a fake identity. However, since she has used this fake identity to live in Providence, she must have left some clues behind. So, I need you to help me find out this person’s current whereabouts as soon as possible.”Having said that, Charlie instructed again, “Also, their gang should have a counterpart here in New York. Find a way to investigate the surveillance at the airport and find out who exactly interacted and had contact with my mother-in-law. After that, find a way to find out her whereabouts as well. It’d be best if you can catch the person directly.”“No problem!” Porter said without hesitation, “Don’t worry, Mr. Wade. You can leave everything to me!” Charlie knew very well that Lucy would definitely find a wa
By the time Charlie had rushed back to New York, it was already night.Since Kathleen had kindly invited him to stay at Fox Mansion before he had arrived in New York, Charlie had agreed to it. There would be many inconveniences for him even if he were to go to a hotel at the last minute. It would be relatively more convenient for him to stay at Fox Mansion temporarily.When the helicopter arrived home, the members of the Fox family came out to greet Charlie again.They were still led by Jordan and Kathleen as they waited for Charlie’s arrival again.As soon as they met, Jordan stepped forward with Kathleen’s support and said very respectfully, “Mr. Wade, I’ve already asked someone to prepare the banquet. I believe that you haven’t eaten yet after all the hard work, so why don’t we go to the dining room for dinner first? What do you think?”Charlie hadn’t eaten since he had dropped Elaine off in the afternoon, so as soon as Jordan reminded him, he felt a little hungry. Therefore,
Charlie nodded, recalled something, and asked him, “Lord Fox, as far as you know, have there been many cases where compatriots harm their own compatriots in the United States over the past few years?” Jordan smiled awkwardly and said seriously, “There have indeed been many such cases. In fact, this kind of thing has been commonly seen in the United States...”Having said that, Jordan said again, “Of course, it’s not just our Oskian compatriots who are in this situation. In truth, people from other countries are also facing similar problems.”After pausing for a moment, Jordan explained, “As you know, the United States is a country of immigrants, so the composition of the population here is very complex. There are many ethnic minorities, and there are often two extremes to these ethnic minorities due to the new arrivals and language barrier.”“The first extreme is that they would get particularly close to their fellow countrymen. Everyone would be closely knitted together to take c
Jordan smiled helplessly and said, “Generally, the internal risk isolation is done very well for this kind of organization. It is equivalent to making multiple fire doors. Once there is a fire, the outermost fire door will be shut first, and if the fire is blocked, they will redevelop the peripheral downline. If they cannot stop it, they will close the second fire door until it can be blocked. Therefore, for so long, they have only lost some peripheral members, and the core members did not suffer any threats. Instead, they have even accumulated a huge amount of wealth and resources, and they have also become more powerful in strength.Charlie nodded and said coldly, “That is to say that the core members of this organization have a large number of scapegoats. Every time something goes wrong, they only need to drag a group of people out to bear the responsibility for that matter.”“Yes.” Jordan said, “This is the drawback of the law under certain circumstances. At the legal level, as l
