Chapter 4310

Author: Lord Leaf
As a high-ranking Oskian detective in New York, Merlin was naturally very familiar with Jordan.

Moreover, he also knew the inside story of the Fox family’s previous struggle for power. He knew that Jordan’s son, Spencer, had usurped Jordan’s power, and he had even heard that Spencer had secretly been spreading news everywhere that he would pay for Jordan’s head.

However, he never would have expected that Jordan would be sitting next to Spencer so casually.

Due to this unexpected scene, he suddenly could not understand what was going on.

Meanwhile, Jordan clasped one of his hands over the other slightly as he said to Merlin, “Thank you for your concern, Inspector Lammy. I just came back today.”

Having said that, he pointed at Kathleen, who was next to him, and smiled as he said, “Inspector Lammy, let me introduce my most beloved granddaughter, Kathleen Fox, to you. I don’t know if the both of you have met before.”

Merlin looked at Kathleen and said politely, “Hello, Miss Fox. We h

Since when did Homer become Spencer’s son? Wasn’t he his grandson ie Xavion’s son? I think it’s Lord Leaf that’s suffering from Alzheimer’s disease not Lord Acker

    Merlin intuitively thought that Spencer was not telling him the truth. However, he could not get to the bottom of it in front of Jordan and Kathleen and so, he spoke up and said, “Mr. Fox, did you prepare the cryptocurrency that the kidnappers asked for, then?”Spencer responded awkwardly, “This... Well... Detective Lammy, my niece, Kathleen, is in charge of all the affairs of the Fox family now. So, you should ask her about this instead...”Merlin frowned slightly before turning to look at Kathleen as he asked, “Miss Fox, since you are the head of the Fox family, how are you going to deal with Homer’s kidnapping?”Kathleen calculated the time, and she thought of how Charlie should be getting someone to publish those videos soon. Therefore, she could not expose anything in front of Merlin yet.So, she had a firm and determined look on her face as she said to Merlin, “Chief Lammy, although Homer is a little older than me, he is my eldest nephew and also the eldest great-grandson of

    The police officer’s words made everyone, including Merlin, feel extremely nervous and tensed up.Merlin couldn’t help but urge, “What happened?! Hurry up and tell me clearly!”The police officer spoke with a frightened expression, “It’s a video! Someone has exposed a large number of videos on the internet, and the content of those videos... is really appalling! The internet has gone into a complete frenzy!”Merlin blurted out, “What exactly is the content of those videos about?!”The police officer swallowed his saliva and said dryly, “It’s all about Homer Fox... It’s about him abusing and killing various girls... Although the victims’ faces have been blurred, it is still possible to determine that there are at least twenty or more victims through their other identity features...”“What?!” Merlin was dumbfounded.He had long been prepared for the fact that Homer had been exposed to a huge scandal, but he had never expected that the scandal would be so big!At this time, his sub

    At this time, his subordinates also said dejectedly, “Chief, I really cannot understand. They’ve killed so many people, but why haven’t we received any clues about the disappearance of young girls recently? It as though there haven’t been any reports of missing young women in New York at all...”Merlin said coldly, “They wouldn’t be so stupid to look for their prey from New York itself. In my opinion, most of these girls killed by them should have been secretly sent here from the West Coast, or they could even have been kidnapped and brought here from abroad.”As Merlin spoke of this, he suddenly remembered something, and he blurted out, “I understand now! The reason why they have been able to commit crimes so many times without getting detected is because they have never started committing the crime from their end before. But this time, Homer Fox made a fatal mistake...”Merlin’s subordinate quickly asked, “Chief, what is the fatal mistake?”Merlin blurted out, “It’s Quinn Golding

    At this point, Merlin did not care about Homer’s kidnapping anymore.After the big scandal had broken out, in addition to triggering the American public’s anger toward the Fox family, it would also trigger the American public’s disappointment toward the entire law enforcement system in the United States.After all, so many innocent girls had died unnaturally, and the police had not managed to solve the case. Instead, it was the kidnapper who had been hated by everyone before who had finally brought this matter to light. In an instant, the kidnapper had become a hero who was applauded by the world, and Homer, whom everyone had felt incomparable sympathy for prior to this, suddenly became the object of scorn and ridicule all over the world.Aside from the Fox family, the New York Police Department also suffered, and its reputation also plummeted gradually. Therefore, Merlin had to analyze the current situation with his leaders and colleagues in order to find a way to protect and r

    It was only then that Lady Acker understood that Quinn had her own business to attend to and so, she hurriedly said, “Oh, I was being negligent. I didn’t expect that you would have something on...”After that, Lady Acker hurriedly said to her eldest son, Christian, “Christian, go and arrange the plane. I will accompany Nana back to New York with Lulu. We will be there to support Nana for her concert.”Christian nodded and said, “I’ll go and make the arrangements, then.”When Quinn heard this, her heart immediately burned with anxiety.She didn’t dare to let Lady Acker and Charlie’s aunt go to her concert together. After all, Charlie and Claire had already booked the concert tickets to go and support her. If Lady Acker and Charlie’s aunt were to go too, they would definitely recognize Charlie when they saw him.Although Quinn hoped that Charlie could let go of the burden in his heart, reconcile, and reunite with his grandmother’s family, she also respected Charlie’s decision. She s

    The Acker family watched Quinn’s private plane take off, and then they turned around and returned to the mansion reluctantly.All of the members of the Acker family were, without exception, both fond and grateful toward Quinn. After Quinn had left, Lady Acker burst into tears, choked up, and said to her children, “This is the good thing that your sister had set up for your father and for us... If she hadn’t arranged this marriage for Charlie back then, I’m afraid that your father really wouldn’t have been able to pass this hurdle today, then...”Christian couldn’t help but sigh as he said, “Mom, you’re right. Dad might have died tonight if it weren’t for Miss Golding’s Healing Pill...”Lady Acker said seriously, “We owe the Golding family a great debt of gratitude for this matter. We have to go over there personally to thank them in person. In my opinion, our whole family should head to Eastcliff when your father’s health is a little better. I’d like to thank Nana’s father in person

    Lady Acker had seen the effect of the Healing Pill today and so, she suddenly had great confidence in the pill. So, she hurriedly said, “Christian, let’s go back to the living room. You can tell me exactly what happened with the Rejuvenating Pill this time. I recently heard some people talking about it, but I’ve always felt that what they were saying was too mystical and could not be real. So, I couldn’t tell if what they were saying was true or false.”Kaeden, who was beside him, also nodded in agreement as he said, “That’s right, Bro. Recently, many people in our circle have been reporting the miraculous efficacy of the Rejuvenating Pill. I was originally planning to send someone to try to find out more about it, but I had a lot of things to do recently, so I didn’t have the energy to do it. I just thought about it after you came back, so let’s discuss this matter properly before making a decision.”Christian looked at the time and said, “Mom, it’s already late, so why don’t you go

    After the Acker family had reached a consensus on the matter related to the Rejuvenating Pill, Lady Acker’s mood suddenly improved greatly. It seemed as though she was somewhat enlightened, and she had a constant smile on her wrinkled face. She even had an expression full of expectation at this time,She couldn’t help but sigh as she said, “It would be great if we could get the Rejuvenating Pill for your father and find Charlie quickly after that!”Kaeden, who was aside, quickly said, “Mom, I plan to organize another group of people to go out and find Charlie’s whereabouts and see if they can find any valuable clues.”Lady Acker said seriously, “We have invested a lot of human and material resources for so many years, but we haven’t been able to find any clues about Charlie at all. So, I am beginning to wonder if we have been looking in the wrong direction from the very beginning.”Kaeden asked, “Mom, what do you mean by that?”Lady Acker spoke up and said, “I remember that we had

    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

    If Charlie really did get Jimmy to stay, who knew what other rubbish Jimmy would spout.As for Jimmy, he was actually surprised Charlie was asking him to stay, and his instincts told him that Charlie definitely didn't mean well.Not only that, he was on foreign soil—wouldn't he be defenseless if Charlie called in his friends to beat him up?Hence, he shook his head without hesitation as he said, "I'm sorry, but my sister-in-law is quite keen for me to leave, so I have no reason to stay and add to her problems. And it is her big day. I can afford to let her save face instead of spilling the beans on her all at once.""Oh, but you were complaining about the lack of important people just now!" Charlie quickly interjected. "It just so happens that we have a big-shot on his way here, and he's a good friend of the groom. When I told him about you over the phone, he said to keep you here no matter what it took, since he would like to talk to you face to face."Jimmy frowned. "What, are y

    And with those words, Jimmy turned to leave.Despite threatening Matilda, there was no such agreement, and he knew that Matilda was well aware of that.Regardless, the only strategy he had in mind when he came to Oskia was harassment. As such, he simply came up with a lie to make Matilda look bad in public. All it took from there was just for one person to relay what he had said—even if it were all lies, Matilda's character would still be called into question.He made himself very clear so that Matilda would understand that if she didn't give in, his family would keep hounding her to take their two pounds of flesh. Even if she wouldn't surrender the stateside estates and human resources of Smith Group Corporate Law, they would still claim a sizable chunk.But if that failed too, they would just have to destroy Matilda's reputation along with Smith Group Corporate Law.Either way, they were not letting her off easy!And reading that much from Jimmy's behavior, Matilda snapped co

    Jimmy didn't expect Matilda to break down the share ownership of Smith Group Corporate Law to such detail, and he hollered as he was starting to feel embarrassed, "Now, you're just being irresponsible, Matilda. My father gave my brother a million to start the law firm in the first place, and they had agreed that the family would have a stake, albeit only at 49%, to not deny your decision-making as a startup. Or are you denying it?"Matilda immediately became furious and snapped, "Bullshit! That was just a loan of one million, and the agreed term was three years. However, your brother returned it in one! I even asked him to return the money with every single one of his siblings watching, since you might all get skeptical, yet suddenly, you're calling it an investment?""You said he's returned it? Well, what proof do you have?" Jimmy quickly shot back. "Our entire family can testify that the money hasn't come back to us!""So, this is how you're going to play it?" Matilda smirked. "Th

    In the first place, Jimmy had come to Oskia to claim a stake in Smith Group Corporate Law, ideally strong-arming Paul and Matilda into splitting the firm in two, with Jimmy taking everything in the States while Paul kept what was left.The way Jimmy saw it, Paul and Matilda were going to be permanently residing in Oskia anyway. There was no way they could manage things over in another country properly, so it was basically returning the firm to the rightful owner.Naturally, Jimmy also knew that despite bearing the Smith family name, the success of Smith Group Corporate Law was all the work of Jimmy's brother and Matilda. Jimmy's father had helped to a certain extent, but that extent of financial support wouldn't amount to an investment at all. No judge in the world would support his claim to the law firm's shares.Therefore, when he learned that Matilda was remarrying, he thought he could seize the moment to cause a scene. Nothing could be better if she and Paul decided to sacrifice

    Jimmy deliberately raised his voice as he said coolly, "Oh, but I didn't want to intervene. It's you and your mother who left the States in a split second, taking with you the law firm which bears the Smith family name. Don't you think such behavior is inappropriate?"Seeing the surprised reactions of the guests, Paul promptly retorted, "The law firm uses the Smith family name, but it is my parents' legacy! They worked blood and sweat to build it from the ground up, and as their only son, I have a veto when it comes to decisions. Or did we need your permission to move to Oskia?""Where's your conscience, Paul?" Jimmy pursed his lips. "Even if you don't know how Smith Group Corporate Law was founded, is that the case for you? It would have been a joke if it weren't for my father's connections!"Hell, it's no exaggeration that it was my father who fought to expand the law firm across America, and just using the family name means you're borrowing the family's influence. The family hono

    The blonde man's voice drew everyone's attention in an instant.Despite his foreign appearance, he spoke Oskian fluently and walked with a haughty gait, almost as though he was above the rest.Paul's expression turned grim the instant he saw him, and he hurried over with Charlie.Still, before Paul could speak, Charlie stopped him, frowning at the man as he said, "Don't you think it's inappropriate to come slinging personal attacks at someone else's wedding?"The man clearly didn't know Charlie, and he wasn't worried, seeing that he was young.Snorting in disdain, he asked, "You must be from the groom's family, yes? Please tell him that he doesn't deserve my sister-in-law.""It's up to the happy couple to decide that," Charlie retorted quietly. "Deserving someone is no issue as long as they both love each other."The man pursed his lips and looked pointedly around him. "Just look at how simple this wedding is. Forget picking an unassuming city like Aurous Hill—is there a single

    Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he
