SWNOVELS Chapter 98
Chapter 98 Old Acquaintance
“Forget it, this is a good thing for Starry Sea Entertainment anyway. But as Aaron said, you can’t let your guard down easily.”
Eden laughed and dispelled Amelie’s doubts.
“Yes, maybe I will take you to and from work for Aaron during this period of time.”
Rex, who had just been discharged from the hospital recently, also interrupted lazily, “With my current condition, I can’t go back
to work now. But I can still be your bodyguard.”
On the top floor of the tallest building in Oakland.
“What are you doing in Oakland?”
“What? Can’t I come to see how my companies work?”
Jeff leaned against the glass wall and looked down at the scenery below him. The scenery of Oakland was taken in.
Compared to Lamont, who was opposite him, he looked aggressive and gentler.
“However, it’s really a pity. I originally wanted to pick you up from the police station after you stayed there for several days. I
didn’t expect you to come out by yourself.”
“Humph.”
Lamont didn’t say anything else. They stood together on the small rooftop to enjoy the
breeze.
“Tell me what happened to you recently. If not for your grandfather’s kindness to our family back then, I wouldn’t want to care
about your trivial matters.”
Hearing this, Lamont looked more upset.
His grandfather didn’t tell him much about the Capet family. His grandfather only said that the Capet family would protect the
Byron family no matter what. But the reason
remained unknown. Even his mother didn’t know about that.
Now it seemed that his grandfather was very wise.
“It’s nothing. I was almost framed by the people from my mother’s side.” Lamont briefly explained the current situation. He
decided to hide the fact that Amelie had
joined hands with him.
to.” “I understand. I’ll help you investigate what the Aylward family is up
Jeff made a gesture of “OK.” He picked up the goblet on the table and drank the translucent liquid inside. He shook his head at
Lamont. “Krug 1982. It’s indeed a top–grade champagne.”
Although Lamont disliked Jeff’s sloppy appearance, he had to admit that with the help of the Capet family, the investigation was
indeed much easier.
The next day, Lamont received news from Jeff.
“The man who died from poisoning at the interview was surnamed Cooper. According to the police, he is suspected of smuggling
guns in the black market. You once bought a virtual currency from him. In order to silence him, you chose to take action at the
interview.”
What a ridiculous reason!
Lamont frowned. He was not familiar with the man surnamed Cooper. As far as he knew, Cooper was honest and simple and
never held any grudges with anyone. That was why Lamont was willing to give Cooper the only candy he had.
Obviously, this was the evidence chain that Macey and Willard had fabricated in order
to kill Lamont.
“Continue to investigate. Let us see what method they used to forge such a complete
evidence chain.”
Prosperity Global had been on a decline recently, but Starry Sea Entertainment became
better and better due to the investment of the Capet family.
“Ms. Mullen! Grandeur Investment invested in us.
“Ms. Mullen, we got several new actors...”
“Ms. Mullen...‘
Almost every day, Amelie was busy dealing with new contracts. She had no time to care about other things.
“Belen, how many more days until the public performance? And Gina’s lawsuit?”
Amelle collapsed on the office chair. Belen, who was forced by Amelie to help, was also
tired.
“The public performance will be in a week. Gina’s lawsuit will be in three days.”
“Okay.”
Since Lamont and Macey were already in an argument now, it would be fine as long as the lawsuit continued. Anyway, Macey
would show her true colors sooner or later. Amelie didn’t mind letting her enjoy her moment for some more time.
For a few days, Amelie did not see Jeff again, but she did not expect to meet him in the underground garage today.
“Ms. Mullen.”
Amelie heard the sound and looked over. Jeff had changed into a fresh set of casual clothes, half of his face hidden under the
low brim of his hat.
“Mr. Capet?”
“Ms. Mullen, I wonder if you are interested in having dinner with me today?”
Just as Amelie was about to answer, she heard Rex’s voice behind her.
“Amelie!”
With the roar of a motorcycle engine, Rex slid to the side of Amelie and looked at Jeff in
surprise.
“He’s the one from the Capet family?”
Amelie nodded.
“Mr. Capet, I’m really sorry. My sister has to go home for late–night snacks every night. The food outside isn’t clean.” Rex smiled
politely at Jeff and threw the other helmet to
Amelie.
Unexpectedly, Jeff walked forward with a smile.
“Don’t you recognize me?”
Amelie and Rex were stunned.
“Sorry, who are you?”
Jeff raised his head and raised the brim of his hat, revealing the handsome face below.
“I really didn’t think that we would meet again in our lifetime.”
Seeing this face, Rex instantly became excited.
“It’s you! Is it really you?”
Rex hemmed and hawed for a long time, but he did not say Jeff’s name.
“What? Do you two know each other?”
Amelie stood in the middle of the two of them and looked left and right.
“Yes, he is the partner I told you about before. He is my partner in the organization!”
Rex got down from the motorcycle and went forward to give Jeff a big hug. “Are you not working there now?”
“Yes, my family business needs me, so I applied to leave.”
The two of them stood there and chatted for a long time until Amelie pulled Rex’s sleeve and told Rex that she was hungry.
“Since we are so close, why don’t we come out for a meal next time?”
“Of course. I wonder if you can bring Ms. Mullen along?”
Jeff looked straight at Amelie.
Rex could tell what Jeff meant, but in terms of relationship, he chose to respect Amelie. “Umm. It’s up to my sister. I can’t make
the decision for her.”
Jeff smiled understandingly. After bidding farewell to the two, he watched them leave
slowly,
With this relationship, he was sure that it would be much easier for him to win Amelie’s
favor.
Jeff was in a good mood. He hummed a tune as he got into his car.
Three days later.
Gina’s case was in session officially.
Early in the morning, Amelie went to the court with Gina.
“Where are your parents? Did they go back to their hometown?”
“Yes, they asked me to thank you again before they left.”
They chatted as they waited for Sasha to come.
Soon, a commercial car stopped in front of them. Macey came out of the car with her
chin raised and a smile of victory on her face.
