Chapter 4212

Author: Lord Leaf
Xavion’s statement that time was running out made Spencer feel even more worried.

He could not help but question Xavion, “We’ve sent so many people and even offered so much money, but we still haven’t been able to find any clues yet?”

“No...” Xavion spoke up and said, “Our people, as well as the gangs from New York, are already searching all over the whole of New York, but there are just no clues...”

Spencer rebuked angrily, “They are all a bunch of useless people! This is especially so for those intelligence personnel. We usually spend so much money to support them just so that they can play an important role at the critical moments, but the more critical the situation, the more useless they are!”

Xavion said helplessly, “Dad, we cannot blame our intelligence personnel this time mainly because the kidnappers are simply too cunning. They really did not leave any clues behind, and the premise is that there must be at least a clue to lead us to the culprit. However, not to mention o

Why hasn’t this idiot tried to call his other son yet at least. Or figured out why he hasn’t called in after the news of Homer got out.

    The butler ran in quickly and said, “Master, Chief Lammy is here!”“Merlin Lammy?!” Spencer questioned him with a frown, “Why is he here?”The butler explained, “He wants to talk to you face-to-face. It’s about the young master.”Spencer nodded and said in a cold voice, “Alright! I was looking for him, anyway. Now that he’s here, please welcome him in!” Soon, Merlin came to Spencer’s study alone.Merlin smiled and greeted Spencer, “Mr. Fox.”Spencer nodded indifferently and asked him, “Chief Lammy, my grandson has been kidnapped for more than twenty-four hours. Do the police have any clues yet?”“Not yet,” Merlin responded frankly, “I believe Mr. Fox is investigating this matter as well. As you know, the other party has removed their trace very well. It’s as if Homer has vanished into thin air. I’m afraid it will be hard to find any clues within twenty-four hours even if we bring in the FBI and National Security Agency to help.” Spencer was infuriated, and he questioned angri

    As Merlin and Christian were talking, they had analyzed the Fox family’s situation and come up with speculation.They suspected that the mystery man had indeed kidnapped Homer, but not for money. It was to thrust the Fox family into the limelight and publicly execute them later.However, Spencer and Xavion had only paid attention to the kidnapping case, not realizing that. Hence, they were both incredulous when they heard Merlin’s words.Spencer looked particularly skeptical about it. He felt a little guilty because of his disgraceful move in seizing the position of the head of the family and the ongoing search for his father, Jordan’s whereabouts.When Spencer heard Merlin’s comment, he immediately berated angrily, “What a joke! Our family is upright and dignified! We don’t have any scandal for the kidnapper to discover!”“You’re supposed to be the best Oskian inspector, but you’re coming to me to talk about nonsense instead of making an effort to find the kidnapper! What are you

    Upon saying that, Merlin took out his name card and passed it to Xavion.Merlin indifferently said, “Think carefully about it. If you decide to cooperate, please contact me quickly. We don’t have much time left. I’m sure you wouldn’t want to collect your son’s corpse after the forty-eight-hour deadline. Also, I’m going to retire soon. I don’t want to leave such a case unsolved before my retirement.”Xavion looked shocked and horrified, and he mindlessly accepted Merlin’s name card and seemed as though he wanted to say something.However, before Xavion could even form his sentence, Merlin carefreely bade them farewell and turned to leave.“Goodbye!” After Merlin had left, Xavion restlessly told his father, Spencer, “Dad... Merlin is right! This is so weird!”Spencer’s expression was ugly and a little panicked as he asked, “What does he mean by a big scandal? Is it about your grandfather? No matter what, I seized power legally and became the head of the family. Even if it ends up

    “Peyton Sate?”Spencer was a little surprised, and he asked, “Who is Peyton Sate ?”The butler hurriedly explained, “Peyton Sate is a director of our business team. Yesterday, you said you wanted to buy a Concorde. He’s one of the people who are in charge of this.”Spencer wrinkled his brow and asked, “What does he have to report to me? If he has secured the Concorde airline, let the person in charge directly negotiate the price. There’s no need to report to me in person.”The butler shook his and explained, “Master, Peyton said he has a clue that is related to Mr. Homer!“Oh?” Spencer immediately arched his brow upon hearing that, and he quickly asked, “Where is he? Tell him to come here at once!”The butler hurriedly said, “He’s right at the door. I’ll bring him in now!”After a while, Peyton trotted into the study.When he saw Spencer and Xavion, he immediately bowed and greeted them, “Master Spencer, Master Xavion. I’m Peyton from the business team...”Spencer cut him off

    While she was drowning in her foolish thoughts, the butler led the head main and several burly bodyguards and rushed in.The butler told Xavion’s wife, “Madam, I need to speak with your servant. I hope you understand.”Xavion’s wife knew that the butler had great power in the Fox family. He must have come to look for her servant for something important, so she nodded and said, “Do as you please.”The butler thanked her, and right after that, the head maid beside him pointed at Lola and said, “That’s her! She’s Lola!”The other servants in the room were shaking nervously. Seeing how the butler was acting so aggressively, they knew there was going to be trouble.However, Lola thought otherwise. She even thought that her Prince Charming must have come to save her!After leaving the room, it might not take long for her to become Finley’s wife!She would come back to the Fox family as Mrs. George next time, and when that happened, the Fox family’s servants, including the head butler,

    Lola carried the watch with her at all times precisely because she cared too much about the watch.She was just a servant, so she did not dare to put a Richard Mille on her hand. However, she did not expect the watch to fall out of her pocket when she fell.Since this had been discovered by Xavion, she quickly made up a lie, “This... A friend left this watch in my care...”“A friend ?” Xavion coldly asked, “What friend? What’s his name?”Lola nervously responded, “I-I... I can’t say his name...”After that, she hurriedly added, “This is a personal matter between us. It has nothing to do with others...”Xavion still wanted to question her further, but Spencer had lost his patience. He coldly said, “Why are you wasting time with her? Since she’s not telling the truth, let’s just cut off her ears!”Xavion immediately thought of his son when Spencer mentioned that. He thought about it again and felt that the maid might be related to his son’s kidnap case.He suddenly burst out in a

    Xavion hurriedly looked toward Spencer and blurted out, “Dad! Is Finley the one who did it?!” Spencer frowned. He paced back and forth with his chin down, but he remained silent for a long time.Xavion was getting impatient, so he hurriedly urged, “Dad, say something!”Spencer finally said, “I don’t know who Finley is, however, I remembered seeing the Seattle George Group in the Fox family’s financial report a few years back. The Fox Group’s cooperation with George Group has increased substantially from one billion to several billion annually. During this period, the George Group’s share price has increased nearly tenfold because of its close relationship with us…”Xavion roared, “Is Finley an ungrateful b*stard?!”Spencer waved his hand, “I don’t think he did it.”Xavion asked in surprise, “Dad, all the clues are pointing at him. Who else would it be?”Spencer shook his head. “Do you think anyone with more than hundreds of billions would take the risk of kidnapping someone and

    “Afraid of something?!”Spencer’s assumption took Xavion by surprise.“Dad, are you saying that Finley knows who attacked Homer? He’s also afraid that they might hurt him?”“It could be!” Spencer nodded gravely and added, “Now that I think about what Merlin said just now, I suddenly feel something...”Xavion was not as bright as his father, so he asked, “Dad, did you figure out something?”Spencer did not answer his question. Instead, he ordered the butler to take Lola and the rest away.Once everyone else had vacated the room, only Spencer and Xavion were left in the room. At last, Spencer turned to Xavion with a stern expression and said, “We couldn’t understand what Merlin was talking about when he mentioned the scandal earlier. Now, I vaguely think that this scandal is likely related to Homer and Finley.”After that, Spencer looked toward Xavion and said, “I think Homer and Finley have been doing something despicable together! This explains why Homer took Finley to the house

    Holding up a thumb at Charlie, Julien exclaimed in approval, "You're right, my friend! That's far more exciting than having him jailed!"Just hearing that he would be sent to a kennel, Jimmy knew nothing would come of it—even if he didn't know the details, it was so obvious that Julien was thrilled by the very idea!Turning nervously toward Charlie, he was sobbing as he asked, "Mr. Wade…? What's this about a kennel…?"Julien chuckled coolly even before Charlie said a word. "A kennel is where you keep dogs, of course. Though there are literal dogs and metaphorical dogs, and you are the latter."Oh, don't worry. It's a really nice place where you get your own cage, and you'll be fed every day. You don't even have to work, so just sit tight and keep eating until the day you die."Jimmy's soul left his body in that instant.He was going to be locked in a cage?! That was way worse than being locked up and sent to jail! Where was the humanity around here?!Even as the thought struck h

    Matilda was actually caught off guard by Jimmy's pleas, and even Paul found it hard to watch.Turning to Charlie, he said, "Please, Mr. Wade—my uncle can be a little despicable, but he is my father's brother. Please, let him have a chance to turn over a new leaf, seeing that he's earnestly repenting."While Paul spoke with Charlie, Jimmy was still confused and wondered why Paul would plead his case with Charlie instead of Julien. If there was anyone Paul should ask, it was Yolden since he was Julien's friend. So, why would he ask some young man instead of Yolden?That was when Charlie asked in curiosity, "You want to let him off? After he tried to take away your parents' legacy?"Paul smiled awkwardly. "I mean, I know the guy. He made sure to travel all this way to make a scene because he had nothing legal that could help him claim Smith Group Corporate Law from us. Otherwise, he'd have already filed the lawsuit in the States. Sure, it's a dirty move, but that's basically a des

    As Julien finished, he realized something was wrong and turned toward Charlie before he knew it.Charlie held his gaze in turn, his expression quizzical and amused.Julien cleared his throat right then. "See, there are people who can order me around, but they have my utmost respect. However, a third-rate lawyer like you? Who do you think you are?"That was when Julien's butler called, and he reported respectfully as soon as the call was answered, "Sir, I've spoken with Nate Ellis, the owner of Ares LLC. He has since agreed to fire Jimmy Smith right away as well as disbar him nationwide."Julien asked, "Good. Anything else?""Well, Mr. Ellis also delivered some documents that can be used as evidence against Jimmy Smith, which he claims is enough for a lifetime sentence. If you deem it necessary, we can have it sent to the FBI.""Yes, let's go with that!" Julien replied, his tone satisfied. "And ask the director to handle it personally—I want this prick to never set foot stateside

    Jimmy was sweating profusely in fear, but he argued back before he knew it, "That's impossible! Everything you say is bullshit! Gaiman simply thought he had a fair chance of winning and didn't want to pay Ares that much, and I have no idea who he partnered with, and I'm certainly not involved. Don't you try to slander me!"Nate chuckled. "Come on, Jimmy. We're all adults here, so there are things we shouldn't have to be so direct about. Mills Gaiman and your old classmate met in private many times, not to mention the private conferences you three had in secret, discussing your overall strategy and decisive points. Just so you know, Gaiman recorded every conversation, and I have the tapes with me."Jimmy's heart was left pounding as he blurted, "B-Bullshit! That's impossible!""Grow up, Jimmy," Mr.Goodman chuckled. "Every partner in every law firm always strives to rise higher, so I'm going to need as much leverage as I can. Otherwise, I'm not about to let them advance any further, e

    Although the ringtone and vibration frequency were the ones Jimmy always used, this call somehow felt more urgent, leaving him exceedingly uneasy.When it abruptly stopped and left a missed call on his log, Nate Ellis soon sent a text: [Answer your damn phone this instant!]Just seeing the text left Jimmy feeling like his throat had gone dry, and as he gulped, it felt like his throat was being ripped, leaving him hurting.Still, he couldn't care less as his boss called again.Having seen the text, Jimmy didn't hesitate this time and promptly answered, watching Julien's smug face as he started tentatively, "Y-Yes, boss...?"Nate immediately yelled at him hysterically, "What the hell did you do?! Why did the Rothschilds call to complain about you?! And the complaint was from their heir apparent, at that! I worked hard for them and always toed the line for years, and I still haven't gotten a chance to meet the man, so how the fuck did you upset him?!"Jimmy's heart sank to rock bott

    Fuming, Jimmy snapped at Julien, "If you insist on playing it like that, I will call my boss, and you can talk to him yourself!"Julien chuckled. "That's unnecessary. I've never met him. He would never recognize my voice."Jimmy laughed and nodded despite himself. "Impressive—you can really come up with anything! You don't have his number because he's beneath you, you refuse to call him because he's beneath you, and when I say I'll call him for you, you say he won't recognize your voice. Well, how do you suppose we should sort this out? At least prove you're a Rothschild, or anyone could claim that they are—"Julien held up a hand to stop him. "Then, how about this? I'll ask my butler to talk to your boss."Jimmy laughed even more loudly as if it were the best joke ever. "Hahaha!!! Butler, you say?! You really know how to talk! Alright, I'll wait and see what your 'butler' can do… I mean, what you can do. We'll see whether my boss calls me!"Julien ignored him and whipped out his

    Naturally, Jimmy couldn't care less about Julien's suggestion, even looking at him pointedly from head to toe while smirking in contempt, "What, do you think I'd just do what any nutjob tells me to do just because they're claiming to be the Rothschilds' heir apparent?"Julien nodded, still smiling. "Good point, but don't worry—it's the same whether you call him or he calls you."Jimmy laughed. "I was offering you a way out, but you want to keep pressing your luck? Since you don't care to back off, let's see how you're going to finish this fight."Then, he shrugged while pointing at Yolden. "Well, it's the perfect chance to measure Matilda's husband, I guess."Based on what he saw of Yolden, there was no way he would buy Julien's claims, and thus labeled him an impostor in his mind.An ordinary lecturer in Aurous Hill, being friends with the Rothschilds' heir apparent? Not to mention that there had been plenty of fraudulent cases outside the States where the Rothschild name was use

    Jimmy was taken aback since he didn't recognize Julien at all, mainly because the Rothschilds had always kept out of the public eye.In fact, it was basically impossible to gather genuine information about the Rothschilds online, as it was a mix of press releases and gossip. Most online biographies would only be about the older generations or certain frivolous figures. Any information about key members like Steve would never be searchable online.Matilda was confused as well, not quite understanding who Julien was since he wasn't on the list of guests invited.Seeing that she was confused, Julien turned and smiled at Yolden, "So, Professor, shouldn't you introduce me to the bride?"Yolden finally remembered that and quickly nodded, "Sorry, it slipped my mind."Turning toward Matilda, he smiled, "Darling, this is Julien Rothschild… A friend of mine from the states…"Julien's full name left everyone within earshot gaping as the Rothschild name was way too famous across the globe.

    Seeing that Jimmy was getting a little nervous, Charlie smiled and assured him, "Please, you have nothing to worry about. No one's going to do anything to you, but if you feel threatened in any way, you can call the cops. The Oskian emergency hotline is 110, by the way."Jimmy was slightly relieved as he could see that Charlie really wasn't trying to make things awkward for him, and he straightened his collar as he said, "Actually, I didn't mean to cause trouble—I'm pleased that Matilda has found true love once more, and if we can be friends, I can set aside my claim and stay for the rest of this wedding, offering the newlyweds our best wishes as a representative of my family."Still, his expression showed contempt as he turned toward Yolden. "Also, I'm really curious and looking forward to seeing what connections Professor Hart might have that you say could be better than Bill.""You'll see soon enough," Charlie smiled and nodded.Jimmy remained skeptical and scoffed, "I really do
