Chapter 462 Make Me A Cup Of Coffee
While leading him upstairs, Sienna replied, “He sent two teams of private soldiers. They have been
searching but to no avail. God knows if she’s dead or alive.”
Treyton mulled over her words. “Only the living will hide. Dead bodies cannot lie.”
Sienna did not fully agree with his statement. “Those men Asher sent to find Evelyn came back and
reported that there are many big dogs kept as pets in the few viges downstream of the river bank.
The river waters were choppy that day, and given that she was shot, it’s also usible that she died
and her body subsequently got eaten by the big dogs roaming nearby.”
Treyton fell silent for a long while before finally responding. “I don’t care if she’s dead or living in misery
as long as she doesn’t bother Kiddo in the future. Also, she can forget about returning to the Harris
family. Her name and photo will be disyed on a public memorial que. 1. Treyton Harris, only have
one younger sister in this lifetime.”
The information of the unimed deceased would be recorded on a public memorial que. No one
woulde and pray or light a candle for them, condemning them to eternal loneliness.
Sienna nodded in response.
As they conversed, they arrived at the master bedroom. Treyton immediately spotted the man half-
leaning against the headboard when the door opened.
Asher had an unhealthy pallor due to being frequently ill and in agony. He appeared somewhat
haggard and feeble, and his skin was also a little pallid, like that of a sickly person.
Treyton almost did not recognize his eldest brother after not seeing him for some time.
He found himself unable to associate the man in front of him with Asher Harris, the formerly sessful
and renowned world’s finest pilot.
Due to his shock, he sat on the chair by the bed and did not speak about the reason for his visit for a
long time.
Asher pressed his fist to his mouth and coughed twice before taking the initiative to speak. “I know
about the homing feast at the Newton residence two days ago. Is that why you came to see me?”
When he spoke, his voice was hoarse and low, not very pleasant to listen to.

Parack. When Be mes Athers gaze, he noticed it it seemed sighneanly
He suppressed the surge of mncholy emotions he was experiencing and nodded. “We suspect that
Craig hurt Jennifer and locked her up. Kiddo is figuring out a way to see her and. find out about her
situation, so I can onlye to you.”
“What do you need me to help you with?”
Asher reached for the ss of water on the bedside table. Seeing that, Treyton hurriedly got up and
handed the ss to him.
“The family of Jennifer’s fiancé, the Abbot family, is well-known for dominating Salinsburgh’s catering
and hotel industries. Do you have any means to control the Abbot family?”
Asher immediately understood what he meant. “You want Remus family to take the initiative to break
off the engagement?”

Treyton nodded.
Asher continued. “In terms of the catering and hotel industries, I don’t own any shares in thepanies
under Abbot Group. Although I’m thergest shareholder of their rivalpany. both sides are evenly
matched, so business-wise, I’m afraid it’s hard to utilize this to strike a blow to the Abbot family.
His throat was so dry from speaking too much all at once that he coughed painfully.
He drank a mouthful of water to ease the difort before adding, “However, I previously led the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, and I have information on everything going on in the country, so I’ll get
someone to help you search and see if there’s any record of Abbot Group viting thew this
afternoon. If there is, you can expand the problems of Abbot Group’s business along this line and
pressure Remus toe to you to call a truce.”
His words relieved the weight that had been crushing Treyton’s heart.
He stood up and bowed in gratitude to his eldest brother with his hands pressed to the seams of his
trousers. “Thank you, Asher.”
Asher replied casually, “There’s no need to thank me. We’re a family.”
Having always been very efficient, Asher sent a message to his former subordinate at the Federal
Bureau of Investigation to investigate the business problems of Abbot Group within
a few minutes.
Treyton sat beside him and waited quietly, hoping to make good progress in this direction.
Sienna excused herself to brew a pot of coffee, leaving the brothers alone to speak in private.
Treyton looked at the quilt covering Asher’s legs and asked, “Asher, do you still go to the
ancestral hall to recite the scriptures?”
Asher followed his gaze and looked at his legs. “I do when they don’t hurt.”
“Why are you doing this? Ultimately, you didn’tmit a big mistake, so how can there be so many
sins to confess to our ancestors? How long will you torture yourself before you stop? It’s time you
forgive yourself.” Treyton said with a sigh.
Asher smiled nonchntly. “Since quitting my job, I’ve been idle at home, spending my life. aimlessly
without any goal like a walking corpse. It’s only when I’m reciting the scriptures. that I feel like I’m alive.
Maybe one day. I can get her forgiveness.”
Naturally, Treyton knew who he was referring to when he said “her.”
He let out another long sigh, having run out of ideas to persuade his eldest brother to give
1.
Silence filled the room, neither of them uttering another word. There was a trace of dejection in the air,
but it was not awkward.
It was not until Sienna came in with a pot of coffee that the tense atmosphere was finally broken.
Two hourster, someone from the Federal Bureau of Investigation called back.
Treyton could barely sit still as he clenched his fists nervously.
“Mr. Asher, three catering hotels under Abbot Group were previously fined and reformed for failing to
meet the food safety and quality inspection standards. There are no other records.”
“All right. Email me those records,” Asher instructed before hanging up.
After Sienna brought over hisptop a few minutester, he logged into his email ount and viewed
those documents.
“It’s not a particrly serious vition, so they were only fined and required to reform themselves.
They weren’t required to close for immediate reformation.”
Treyton lowered his eyes and pondered over the matter. “What if I magnify this issue and get the media
to write an exaggerated news headline, preferably involving all of Abbot Group’s restaurants and
hotels, and put their food safety issue on the trending list? What do you think, Asher?”
Asher curled his lips into a smirk. “This is an excellent suggestion. With Abbot Group’s stock. market
experiencing significant losses, I’m sure Remus will take the initiative toe to you. within three
days.”
Treyton, being an impatient and resolute person, quickly bid Asher and Sienna goodbye and recruited
his subordinates topose the news on the inte.
Late that night, the hotels under Abbot Group were listed in the top few trending searches. without
warning.
As people increasingly sought a better quality of life in recent years, food safety issues were of great
importance in their perceptions.
The impact of such big news on the whole Abbot Group was huge.
In Salinsburgh, the entire Harris family was meticulously forming a n for the situation involving the
Newton family and the Abbot family.
Only Kieran, who was far away in Faike, ignored outside matters, as he wasmitted to staying by
Inez’s side as her dedicated secretary.
However, his days at work had not been easy for the past few days.
The tasks that Inez assigned him got heavier each day, leaving him overburdened with work like a full-
time office worker.
Knock! Knock!
In the CEO’s office, Inez tapped her fingers on the table, smiling slyly as she deliberately. disrupted
Kieran, who was busy typing on the keyboard.
“Mr. Harris, go make me a cup of coffee. Thirty percent sugar with no milk.”
