Chapter 451 Henry Lancaster''s Suspicion
Yvonne took a breath and continued to speak, "What''s more, I haven''t figured out what their
rtionship is now and whether they''re really getting back together."
"About this..." Sam touched his chin. "In fact, I''ve been secretly investigating it these days and I
found that their rtionship is very strange. Instead of saying that they''re reunited, I''d say the two of
them are doing a trade."
"A trade?" Yvonne didn''t quite understand.
Sam nodded. "Yes, a trade, but I haven''t found out what they''re trading. If you want to know, I can
investigate further by starting from Jacqueline, and then I can find out about it as soon as possible."
"Better not." Yvonne pursed her lower lip and said, "it’s better to leave it this way. If we investigate
further, Henry will discover us."
Sam chuckled, "Don''t worry, it’s okay. It''s fine even if h e finds out. If he can''t find me, then he won''t
know your whereabouts." 1
After that, he took out his mobile phone and ced a call to his assistant. He asked his assistant to
send more people to investigate the trading rtionship between Henry and Jacqueline in a short
amount of time.
Yvonne was touched that he was so resolute. She silently thanked him.
Perhaps she knew Henry too well. In the end, Henry found the people that Sam''s assistant sent
over and h e caught one on the spot.
Looking at the man in a ck suit in front of him, Henry''s expression was so cold that he made
people shiver. "Who sent you here?"
The suited man lowered his head. "I''m sorry, Mr.
Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Lancaster. We''re from a detective firm and we have professional ethics. We can’t reveal the
employer’s information."
"Huh!" Henry sneered. "Then I''ll give double themission to buy his information. Can you spill
the information now?"
"This..." The eyes of the suited man brightened for a moment and he was intrigued.
Upon seeing this, Henry smacked his desk. "Are you still not telling me?"
"I’ll say it!" The man in the suit no longer hesitated and quickly nodded his head. "A gentleman
named M r. Marc came to us. Marc with a C. He specifically asked us to investigate the rtionship
between you and Jacqueline.”
"Marc?" Henry frowned. "What''s his full name?”
The man replied with a smile, "I''m not sure. He didn''t say and he didn''t evene to our office in
person. H e contacted us by phone. He even did a bank transfer t o us for themission. We can''t
investigate our employer, so we really don''t know the employer''s true identity."
Henry narrowed his eyes. "Do you know any Marc in the circle?"
He nced at Joe who was beside him.
Obviously, this person wasn’t afraid to offend him since he had the ability to hire more than one
detective.
The status of such a person may be high-perhaps they were in the same circle.
"Marc..." Joe thoughtfully stroked his chin and said uncertainly, "Mr. Lancaster, if I guess it right, it
should be Mr. Smith. I remember the name of his assistant, M r. Marc. Didn''t Mr. Smith call me a
few days ago to ask about Miss Conrad''s whereabouts? I think this time, it''s Mr. Smith too."
"Sam!" Henry gritted his teeth and spat out that name.
The middle-aged man swallowed his saliva. "That... since you guessed it, can I go now, Mr.
Lancaster?"
Henry waved his hand impatiently.
Joe immediately took the order and sent the middle-aged man out.
After a while, Joe returned to the study room. "Mr.
Lancaster, what do you think Mr. Smith would do? He was supposed to return to his country three
days ago, but he canceled it out of the blue. Then he sent
someone to investigate you. Is there any conspiracy?"
Mr. Lancaster rubbed his swollen eyebrows and said, "I f there’s a conspiracy, he should just
investigate me alone and not Jacqueline. Didn’t you hear what the man just said? He was
investigating my rtionship with Jacqueline!"
"That''s right, and he wants to know your rtionship with Jacqueline. What does it have to do with
him though?" Joe was puzzled.
Henry rolled his eyes and his expression tensed when he thought of something. "Joe, did Sam go to
the scene of the ident?”
"The scene of the ident?" Joe was taken aback, but he managed to react and nodded
repeatedly. "Yes, he said he wanted to say goodbye to madam personally, but when he arrived at
the hospital, he found out that madam was kidnapped. In order to look for madam, h e then asked
his men to find out who kidnapped madam. When he arrived at the ce where madam was
kidnapped, the ce was already burnt down."
"That''s right." Henry raised his chin and his eyes were full of excitement. "Have you ever thought if
Mr.
Smith’s really the one who cares about my rtionship with Jacqueline? He''s a man and he has
never met Jacqueline. I don''t believe that he has feelings for her and that he pays attention to both
of u s because he''s jealous. What if there''s someone around him that cares about our rtionship
and asked him to investigate?"
"Someone around him? Who is it?" Joe couldn''t react for a while.
Henry gave him a cold look and Joe suddenly realized it too. "Mr. Lancaster, you mean madam’s
the one?"
Henry was nomittal. "Who cares about my rtionship with Jacqueline other than Yvonne?
And Yvonne''s body wasn''t found at the scene, right? Even the other search and rescue team didn''t
find Yvonne near the industrial area. Do you think Sam could''ve rescued Yvonne?"
"That''s possible too!" The more Joe thought about it, the more he felt like it. He got goosebumps all
over his body. "No wonder Mr. Smith kept sending people to hang around here the day after the
ident. We didn''t pay attention to these details before. Now that we think about it, Mr. Smith could
be the one who sent these people to inquire about madam, but..."
Henry looked at him. "But what?"
Joe expressed his doubts, "Well, what I want to say is that, if madam is really there, why doesn''t
shee back?"
Henry pursed his thin lips without answering, but deep down in his heart, he agreed with Joe''s
question.
If Yvonne was really alive and with Sam, why didn''t shee back and tell him that she was still
alive? 1
Was it because of Jacqueline?
If it was really because of Jacqueline, she coulde back and ask him why he brought Jacqueline
to the vi and he would tell her.
Henry whispered, "What on earth is she thinking?"
Joe wasn’t far from him, so he heard it naturally. After hesitating for two seconds, he finally asked,
"Mr.
Lancaster, should we look for Mr. Smith to confirm whether madam is with him? If she’s there, how
about we pick madam up?"
Henry answered faintly, "Do you know where Sam is?"
Joe choked, "I don''t know, but we can investigate. We can also ask someone from the detective
office to search for it."
Henry nodded. “Go ahead then."
"Yes, I’ll do it now," Joe responded and turned around t o walk towards the door.
He was taken aback as soon as he opened the door." Why are you here?"
He looked at the person outside the door with dissatisfaction.
Henry knew that it couldn''t be Sue when he heard Joe’s tone of voice. Since it wasn''t Sue, it should
be Jacqueline.
Henry''s face sank with the thought. He got up and walked to the door. When he saw Jacqueline
outside the door, his deep eyes were filled with coldness." What are you doing here? Who gave you
permission toe up?"
Jacqueline was angry that Joe dared to give her such a n attitude. She was even more annoyed
now that she heard Henry''s disgusted tone.
But she could endure it, so she forced a smile in reply," I see that you’ve been talking for so long
and I thought that you might be thirsty, so I made you coffee.”
With that, she raised the tray in her hand.
Henry took a nce and gave a cold expression. "Is it drugged?"
