"In that case, why don't we go to West Side City and take a look?" Matthew said at this moment. After hearing this, Charlie pondered for a moment and then said, "I think we should wait a bit longer. After all, if we go to Charleston now, we might lead Spades right to us. We need to know first whether Spades is targeting us or has other motives. "We need to find out if Charlotte is behind this. If it's really her, then Spades is after us. If it's not Charlotte pulling the strings, then it could be someone else entirely. This matter is quite uncertain."After Charlie finished speaking, he looked at them."That's what I think too. But if we really want to investigate this, it won't be easy, and we can't possibly finish such a big task so soon. If we go to West Side City now, we might be walking into a trap. Besides, Spades has always been mysterious. I'm afraid they might have already changed their hideout by now," Hudson said, supporting his chin with both hands as he talked to the
After Hugh finished speaking, he glanced at Matthew and the other two. After all, this was something he would not forget, and he would not be mistaken."So, should we go to Charleston first or to West Side City? There might be some information from both places, but I'm not sure where we should go now. Going to West Side City might be less risky since it's our territory. If we go to Charleston, the risk will definitely be greater. Being on our own turf would be the safest approach. What do you think?"After Charlie finished speaking, he looked at the three of them.Upon hearing this, Hudson sighed deeply and said to them, "That might be a good idea, but we're not sure if it's feasible. If we go to West Side City first, we can track the information. Even if Spades isn't looking for us, we might find something detrimental to them, which would help in our investigation later on. "If we go to Charleston and find out that Charlotte definitely has nothing to do with this, we'd need to th
Upon hearing this, Matthew furrowed his brows. He didn't know what to do now. Previously, if such a situation arose, he could consider sending Lucy to her brother in Charleston. That would've been a foolproof plan and a safer one too. But now?Lucy was pregnant, and he could not bear to send both mother and child to Charleston as they might face potential risks. If Spades intervened, they would not stand a chance of completing their mission in a foreign land. This troubled him deeply.Yet, not sending Lucy to Charleston was not entirely safe either. He was not sure how to proceed.Koven and Hugh Lincoln certainly could not handle this. If Spades really acted, it would be effortless for them to make a move on Lucy. Koven and Hugh were not a match for Spades."Maybe we should just send Lucy to be with her brother," Matthew finally said. "It's safer that way. If something happens, her brother is the prince of Charleston and can protect her. Besides, Spades won't dare do anything in Ch
Koven felt bad about the incident where Charlotte had previously threatened him. Therefore, he definitely would not want to see Charlotte now, especially considering how malicious she could be. He never wanted to get involved with someone like Charlotte again in his life. He really could not believe how ruthless that woman could be.Matthew said. "Alright. Since you feel that way, then you should stay by Lucy's side. And we should try to get Chelsea and Selena to go as well. As for Hugh, you should check your schedule. If you're busy with the company, then stay here for mutual support. "But if you're free, you can come along. If you need to return later, you can. Having Selena and Lucy together makes me feel more at ease."When Matthew started speaking, he initially addressed Koven but then suddenly remembered Hugh and turned to speak to him.Hugh thought about it for a moment and said to all three of them, "I'll check my schedule later. There shouldn't be any problem, so don't
Hudson saw Koven dragging on and said, "Can you speed up your speech? Whatever you've found out, spit it out immediately. Time is tight now. If you don't tell us now, we won't even have time to investigate after arriving in Charleston."Koven looked at them and nodded. "DS Group was founded on December 13th, eight years ago. The company's founder remains hidden. This part is unclear, but there's an old man whose name I don't know and is just referred to as Mr. Zimmer. "I'm not very familiar with this person and haven't found much about him. But the main thing is, I don't know his name. If I knew his name, I might be able to find out more. The information details that Mr. Zimmer is ruthless and shows no emotions toward his subordinates. He's highly astute in business and never allows any issues to arise. He has someone under his command..."At this, everyone saw Koven hesitating and urged him, "Koven, continue speaking! Why did you pause?"Koven's expression stiffened at this mome
After hearing this, Matthew suddenly realized that Charlie's reasoning ability was stronger. Charlie's words were credible, and his logic was flawless. It appeared that Linus had to be Mr. Zimmer's adopted son. He was neither a biological son nor a subordinate, but there was a unique bond between them that drove Linus to devote himself to Mr. Zimmer."Should we go find Linus now and have a talk with him? Linus and Lucy were childhood companions. Linus once mentioned meeting a girl who almost pulled him out of the darkness when he was young. It might be Lucy. "It seems Linus has feelings for Lucy, and they're really profound. I can't believe it's been over 20 years and Linus still remembers her. It's truly remarkable," Koven said, stealing a glance at Matthew after finishing his words, wanting to see Matthew's expression.As soon as he looked over, Matthew's expression was completely cold. He looked like he wanted to tear Linus apart."I suggest we go find Linus first. Considerin
Daniel nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this and then said to her, "Alright, you can go back for now. Avoid any unnecessary accidents, and make sure to persevere. The surveillance device you placed on Koven must not be discovered. Most importantly, you must not let them find any flaws, do you understand?"After nodding, Selena then withdrew.The room suddenly fell silent, leaving only Linus and Daniel in the vast space of the villa. Daniel tapped his cane sternly and said to Linus, "Linus Gusman! I see you're utterly useless to Spades now. As a grown man, you can't even do what Selena did well. "I sent you to get close to Lucy Quinn, but you were discovered so soon. What are you doing? Have you lost all that vigor from before? Could it be... Have you fallen for Lucy? Let me tell you, stop daydreaming. "Lucy already has someone as reliable as Matthew supporting her. And you have nothing now. All you need to do get close to them and achieve our goals. You shouldn't always think
Selena pondered upon hearing this statement, unsure how to respond. After all, she understood deep down that both she and Linus were just pawns of Daniel. Even after years of serving Daniel, he still regarded them with indifference.However, the story Selena fabricated for Lucy and the others did contain some truth. One day seven years ago, she ran into Linus on the street and was immediately attracted to him. Later, she began disrupting Linus' life in various ways. Until one day, she suddenly overheard Linus' conversation and realized he was part of Spades.Selena had heard of Spades before but had never been in contact with them. Later, she forced Linus to tell her everything to understand the situation. It was then that she knew what kind of person Linus was and what he had been through over the years.Later, she and Linus started dating, and their life together was really wonderful at that time. Until one day, Daniel discovered her existence and wanted Linus to kill her. Linus f
