Chapter 1039 Anthony Is Somewhat Impressive


    As they were walking back, Anthony sent a message to Dave.


    He sent him the ount that Magus gave him and before long, he received a call.


    Upon noticing the caller was Dave, Anthony turned to Benjamin and Denise. “You guys go in first. I


    need to take this call.”


    After exchanging nces for a moment, they walked away without saying much.


    At that moment, Anthony, holding his cell phone, walked to a spot and answered directly, “Hello.”


    “What''s wrong? Why did you ask that?” Dave inquired directly on the other end of the phone.


    Anthony lowered his gaze. “While I was investigating my father''s affairs, that person took the


    initiative and came up to me to ask what was going on. So, I need to know if he''s one of you,”


    Anthony said.


    Dave responded right away, “Nope.”


    “All right. Got it.” Anthony nodded.


    “Are you still investigating that matter?” Dave asked.


    Anthony came clean. “Yes.”


    “Anthony, I know it''s unrealistic to tell you not to interfere in this matter, but this really isn''t something


    you can resolve,” Dave uttered in a low voice.


    At that moment, Anthony suddenly remembered that he had not yet shared the information he had


    found.


    “Mr. Dave, I haven''t had the chance to tell you that I''ve found evidence proving Dad''s innocence,”


    Anthony said.


    Taken aback, Dave asked, “What did you say?”


    “At the time of the incident, they did witness their fathermitting the murder with their own eyes.


    However, they were in shock and couldn''t ept it, standing frozen on the spot. It was Kyle who


    chased after him, shooting and injuring the man,” he exined.


    Hearing that, Dave continued asking, “And?”


    Anthony continued, “I came back to examine my father''s injuries, and, contrary to what Kyle said,


    there was no wound in that location on his body.”


    “So...”


    “So, it wasn''t our father who did this,” Anthony emphasized.


    At that moment, Dave was stunned, as he had never expected such a revtion.


    “Why would they think it''s your father if it''s not him?” Dave asked.


    “This leads us to another issue,” Anthony answered. “Mr. Dave, are you familiar with the art of


    disguise?”


    “I''ve heard a bit about it,” Dave said, then suddenly remembered something. “The person you


    brought back earlier—is he rted to this?”


    “Yes,” Anthony responded immediately. “I didn''t believe it before, but after seeing Magus'' skills, I


    realized it''s indeed possible to pass off a fake as genuine. So, I believe that someone must have


    impersonated Dad to kill Holden''s girlfriend,” Anthony deduced.


    Silence fell on the other end of the phone.


    “Mr. Dave, remember the ount I asked you about earlier? The person I sent Magus to investigate


    came forward to approach me. So, he''s either a friend or a foe. If it''s not you, then we can basically


    figure out what''s going on.”


    Hearing his words, Dave gradually collected his thoughts. “Have you ever considered why that


    person would do such a thing? What his purpose might be?”


    “Yes, I did,” Anthony replied solemnly, “Like what Benjamin had said earlier, if my spection is


    correct, there should be a bigger conspiracy behind this. But we''ll have to wait until we investigate


    to get to the bottom of this matter.”


    Dave also seemed to have grown wary. “I''ll get someone to look into the ount matter right now.”


    “I''ll do it myself,” Anthony said.


    After some thought, Dave spoke up. “All right then. Feel free to tell me if there''s anything you need


    help with.”

    “I will.”


    “By the way, does Kyle know about this?” Dave asked directly.


    Anthony responded, “Yes, I told him about it. But I haven''t said anything to Holden. I''ll tell him the


    truth once we''ve gathered all the evidence.”


    “What did Kyle say?” Dave asked.


    Anthony replied, “He didn''t say much, but I could feel it. No one wants to make enemies for


    themselves. If it weren''t for this matter, perhaps you wouldn''t have ended up where you are now.”


    Dave, in a solemn voice, remarked, “He sure knows how to save himself from embarrassment.”


    “Mr. Dave, I will definitely get to the bottom of this,” Anthony said, enunciating each word.


    “It''s only been a few days, and you''ve gathered so much information, Anthony. I have to say, you''re


    quite impressive,” Dave said in aposed tone.


    It had been so many years since the incident urred, and they had never harbored any doubts.


    Yet, in just a few days, Anthony had managed to clear Keh''s name from that of a murderer into


    that of an innocent man.


    Dave had tomend him for that.


    Surprisingly, upon hearing this, Anthony whispered, “As the person caught in the middle, perhaps


    I''m the only one who could see beyond the surface and spot this issue.”


    He did not take pride in what he had done. Instead, he felt that being able to uncover those findings


    was simply a stroke of luck.


    As someone caught in the middle, he understood all too well the helplessness of the situation. That


    was why he felt there was nothing for him to be proud of.


    Understanding his helplessness all too well, Dave sighed. “You''ve had it tough.”


    “No matter what, I''m pleased that I''ve gathered those findings to prove that Dad was innocent,”


    Anthony said with a sigh of relief. Exactly, as long as we can prove Dad''s innocence, that''s the top


    priority. With that resolved, we can focus on uncovering the truth in due time,


    Dave hummed in response. “I believe your father will be relieved when he wakes up and learns


    about this.”


    Anthony took a deep breath. “I hope so.”


    “All right, it''s gettingte. I''ll pack up and head home. I''ll see you off in the afternoon,” Dave said.


    “Okay. See you in a bit.”


    “See youter.”


    With that, they ended the call.


    Anthony nced at his phone and hesitated for a moment before heading straight for his room.


    He really did not want to wait another moment anymore.


    Inside the room, Anthony walked to the desk and turned on theputer. He directly logged into


    the ount and began tracking it immediately.


    Anthony knitted his eyebrows as he watched the interface change constantly.


    Just then, a message suddenly popped up on hisputer screen. It was a message from Miguel:


    Master, are you leaving today?


    Staring at his message, Anthony immediately replied: Yes.


    Miguel asked: Why didn''t you tell me?


    Anthony remained silent.


    Miguel inquired further: Would you have left without saying goodbye if I hadn''t asked?


    After a long pause, Miguel texted again: Master? You there?


    As he read the deluge of messages he was receiving, Anthony could not help but furrow his brow.:


    Shut up. I''m busy.


    Miguel asked: What are you busy with? Where are you now? I’lle find you.


    Anthony replied sinctly: I''m tracking a virtual ount.


    Miguel was taken aback: What ount? Show me!


    Anthony directly copied and sent it over.


    Upon seeing the ount, Miguel immediately texted: Why does this ount seem so familiar...


    Looking at his reply, Anthony furrowed his brows: Does it?


    Miguel added: It seems like I''ve seen it somewhere before...


    Anthony paused: You''ve seen it before?


    Miguel replied: But I can''t seem to remember at the moment...”


    Anthony instantly perked up: Miguel, this is very important. Please closely examine the ount and


    do your best to recollect it.
