Chapter Making 36
Chapter 36
On the way back to the Palazzo, Gerald said, “Gilmore, we’re indebted to Miss Carter. If it were not for her help, you might have been caught in trouble at the party.”
Gilmore said. “Undeniably, Claire did me a big favor, but your boss, David, is not that easy to fool.
“If Tiffany can’t produce any evidence to prove that I turned my back on her, I believe David will drive her away.”
Gerald did not deny it.
David was better informed than ordinary people. It would be very challenging for Tiffany to deceive him easily.
“Gilmore, on our way to the Foster family, somebody tried to orchestrate a car accident and kill us. I will report the case to my boss and the young lady. We will find out the culprit behind it. Gerald’s eyes fiercely glittered.
Thanks to Gilmore’s reminder, he quickly located the man behind the truck driver today.
Unfortunately, the other party was wearing a scarf. Unable to see his face, Gerald could dimly tell that the masked man was in his fifties or sixties.
And the other party was a martial arts master.
They had a fierce battle on the roof, but Gerald failed to catch the culprit.
Gilmore said blandly, “Investigation was not necessary. Roger and Marco Chapman are behind both the car accident and Tiffany’s slander at the party.”
Gerald asked curiously, “How did you know that?”
“Think about it. Who doesn’t want to see me with Christine the most? Who would benefit the most if I were killed or discredited?” Gilmore said with a smile.
Gerald replied, “Marco and his family, of course.”
“Well, I should report it to our chairman,” Gerald said, taking out his phone….
But Gilmore stopped him, “Hold on. Don’t tell your boss yet. Let’s sneak into the Chapmans‘ Residence and take a look tonight.
“After finding the evidence, I will tell not only your boss but also everyone in Oakhaven.”
Investigating the Chapmans‘ Residence was not a spur–of–the–moment or a reckless decision.
During his speech just now, his pupils had constricted before he had a vision. Something would happen at the Chapmans Residence tonight.
It would determine the Chapman family’s life or death.
If he didn’t go there tonight, he would miss a great opportunity
As long as he made good use of the opportunity, he would not only revenge himself on the ringleaders but also overturn the Chapman family

Gerald was surprised. Sneaking into the Chapmans‘ Residence at night?
The villa of a powerful clan like the Chapman family should be heavily guarded.
But Gerald, an ace of the special forces, was not worried about it,
Far from it, he liked danger and challenges. “Okay, let’s go and explore the Chapmans‘ Residence tonight.”
As they conversed, the car had gone back to the Villa–1 of the Palazzo.
As night fell, Oakhaven was brightly lit.
The Chapmans Residence covered hundreds of thousands of square feet. Outside the high walls parked a Mercedes.
The people inside the car were Gilmore and Gerald.
Gerald took out a black scarf before covering his nose, mouth, and half of his face.
Then he said, “Gilmore, wait in the car. I’ll be right back.”
Gilmore said, “I’ll go with you and get your back.”
Behind the scarf, Gerald laughed, “Ha–ha, man, this is not an ordinary villa. There are many elite bodyguards inside. You would be in great trouble if you got caught.
“I can sneak in alone. Given my skills and stealth techniques, they won’t find me. Even if they do, they won’t catch me
Gerald’s message was clear. It was dangerous for Gilmore to go in with him. On top of that, Gilmore would drag him down,
Gilmore looked at Gerald and asked, “Are you sure you don’t need my help?”
“Yeah, just do me a favor and stay in the car. Gerald pleadingly pressed his hands on Gilmore’s shoulders.
Gilmore had to give up. “Okay, I’ll stay. Be careful.”
Gerald stretched out his right hand and made an OK gesture.
He then opened the door, got out of the car, and scurried toward the wall like a cheetah. When he almost reached the wall of the villa, he suddenly jumped up.
In mid–air, he abruptly grabbed the edge of the ten- or thirteen–feet–high wall.
His feet quickly kicked the wall before he got on it.
Losing no time, he leaped into the villa.
The villa was large, and not every corner was guarded.
Besides, there were intervals between their patrols. Gerald got lucky that he went in during an interval.
Under the cover of the flowers, trees, corners, and shadows, he crept toward the house where Roger lived.
The Foster family and the Chapman family were close, and he had escorted David to the Chapmans‘ Residence before. He knew which house Roger lived in.

He crept past the patrolling bodyguards and finally reached Roger’s house.
He went to the back of the villa and hid in the shadows. People would not find him easily.
Then from his pocket, he took out a pair of smart goggles and put them on.
Thanks to its might vision function, he could see everything clearly in the dark.
Following that, Gerald deftly climbed up the pipes on the outer wall and the window frames.
He knew that Roger lived on the third floor. The latter liked to stay and meet important people in the study.
So, he directly climbed to the study.
He saw a half–open window, but the closed curtains blocked his vision.
Gerald cautiously leaped off the pipe, landed on the ledge outside, and stuck to the window glass.
He came to the half–open window. There was no sound from inside. It seemed to be empty.
But to be on the safe side, he didn’t immediately enter the study. Instead, he slightly opened the curtain,
He had a peek and saw a person sitting behind the broad desk and leisurely sipping from a cup of coffee.
The coffee drinker in the study was unexpectedly Gilmore.
In great shock, Gerald almost fell off from the window on the third floor.
“Why is Gilmore in Roger’s study? How did he get in?” He wondered.
