Chapter 1238 The Way Things Were Before


    "I know. Dinner''s ready. Call Madam Jazelle and Miss Raeleigh down for dinnerter."


    Lamar stood by the window of the room and looked downstairs. He couldn''t see anything outside, but


    Jepherson was still quite a youngster.


    However, he was looking for a son-inw who had nothing to do with the riff-raff.


    He was quite unlucky.


    Turning around, Lamar went downstairs. A man then came downstairs and stood at the door waiting for


    him.


    "I''m not a warlord. Why are you so afraid of me? We''re friends. There''s not much to discuss. You help


    me and I''ll give you a reward. It''s simple. What do you think?"


    Lamar came down step by step, walked towards the couch, and raised his hand to invite the neer


    to sit down.


    The man was in a hurry to remove his shoes. He walked towards Lamar, greeted him politely, and then


    sat down.


    "Have you found a clue?" Lamar looked up at the other person. The person thought for a moment and


    took out the things he found and neatly ced them on the table.


    "We''ve discovered some information, but the question was whether you''ll continue investigating," the


    man said as he took out several more documents and ced them on the table.


    Lamar picked up one of them. "The Perry family from Capital City?"


    "Yes, the Perry family. The Perry family is also rted to the Harvey family. However, they haven''t been


    around all these years. Instead, they chose to remain here in A city. Rosa, the daughter of the Perry


    family, is married to a son of the Harvey family, Martin."


    "Martin and Calvin from the Harvey family are quite different. Calvin wasn''t interested in politics and the


    military. He was only interested in the business world. His own son didn''t intend to join the military or


    politics."


    "However, Martin was handsome and a true master of politics. He was known throughout the world."


    "He was considered a legend."


    His wife, Rosa, was a well-known general in the military world, and General Perry only had Rosa as his


    only daughter. Wherever his daughter was, he would go to her without hesitation."


    "With the Perry family''s military assistance, this man, Martin Harvey, was like a duck to water."


    "This is the crux of this matter. I havepleted my investigation. The Perry family also showed up


    during my search. I mean, it happened in Capital City. It was a coincidence."


    Lamar said, "I believe that General Perry has a daughter too."


    "Yes," the man said. Lamar ced down the materials in his hand and looked at the other documents.


    The person opposite from him began to exin.


    "The Cole family''s status wasn''t very well-known at that time, and we couldn''t find out their connection


    to the investigation."


    "This is the Matthews family. The family is well-known in Capital City. Albie Williamson and Calvin have


    a very good rtionship. But strangely, at the time you told me about them, the Matthews family had


    disappeared."


    "Disappeared?"


    Lamar frowned, and the other person nodded. "Yes."


    Lamar ced down the document in his hand and looked at the other three folders. One of them was


    the Harvey family, another was the Atkinson family, and thest one was the Scott family.


    "The Atkinson family appeared at the time, but Rhys was found to be upright and honorable. Although


    his background wasn''t very clean, he wasn''t the type of person who would use such means," the man


    exined. Lamarughed. "Of course not, he and I are friends."


    "Really?" The man smiled awkwardly. He didn''t find that out.


    "Additionally, this Scott family suddenly appeared at that time and took over the vige. Although he


    wasn''t very strong, her is very popr within the vige. This person called Jacky Scott is considered

    the overlord of the vige. He has great influence within the vige."


    "But the Scott family wasn''t very suspicious. His parents were ordinary people. He had been a punk


    since he was a kid. He''s been quite famous until now."


    "As for what happened 20 years ago, he was just a child. It probably had nothing to do with him."


    "It just so happens that the Scott Family had recently entered Capital City, so I brought back his


    information."


    "I wouldn''t have asked for such a favor for nothing. I''ll give you an extra twenty percent of the profit


    "Thank you," the man said and looked at the Harvey family folder. "The only family I suspect is the


    Harvey family."


    Lamar read the information about the Harvey family. He reached out to open it. It had information about


    everyone in the Harvey family.


    "Mr. Osteen, we can clear our suspicions of Martin. I''ve checked on him. He wasn''t in Capital City at


    the time, and we''ve had no contact during that time."


    "Jepherson, Santiago, and Martin''s two daughters aren''t suspects. The suspect could only be Hudson


    or Calvin. Some of them have had contact with these people that you''ve mentioned."


    Lamar looked up at the other person. "Do you mean to say that it was the Harvey family who took my


    daughter away?"


    "You could say that." The man was very sure. Lamar held the file and pondered for a moment. "I''ll give


    you another fifty percent. Continue to check on this matter for me. I will give you money whether this is


    sessful or not. But I hope you''ll keep your promise and not let this get out."


    "I can do this, so I''ll head back first." The man began to pack his things up. Lamar asked him to leave


    them behind. He packed them up and ced them back down. He turned towards Lamar who then


    called the housekeeper over. "Give him the sum of money. He needs this for a favor I''ve asked of him.


    Remember this and be sure to pay me back."


    The man smiled and nodded at Lamar, following the housekeeper to collect the money.


    Lamar put the documents away and sat downstairs for a while.


    Jazelle brought Raeleigh back downstairs. Jazelle watched Raeleigh eat every day and took care of


    her like a child who couldn''t speak and doted on her.


    Raeleigh thought it was quite fortunate for her to have been taken away. Otherwise, she might have


    been spoiled.


    When they went downstairs, they saw Lamar sitting down in a daze, holding something in his hand.


    "Lamar." When Raeleigh came down, she heard her mother calling her father tenderly. She sounded


    like she was very unhappy that her father was in a daze and didn''t pay attention to them.


    Lamar looked back at his wife and daughter. They were like a pair of sisters.


    "What is it?"


    "What are you doing? Didn''t you even realize we had juste down?" Jazelle was unhappy. Every


    frown and smile looked coy. Raeleigh stood aside and quietly watched. This was her mother. If she


    didn''t know it, then she would have thought that she had been possessed by Deanna.


    However, this was proof that her parents were quite loving to each other. Deanna was the daughter of


    her parents, and her mother was the apple of her father''s eye.


    Raeleigh stood aside. Lamar stood up and said, "How many times have I told you to watch your


    toungue? You also have a mother-inw. And you forget my words again?"


    Hearing Lamar say that, Jazelle suddenly remembered something and spoke as advised, "I forgot, it


    won''t happen next time."


    "You say that every time, but you forgot everything anyway."


    Jazelle didn''t answer. She lowered her head slightly and thought of other things. Raeleighughed in


    her heart. Although she said this seriously, her eyes were full of love.


    With such a husband, her mother was still so youthful, and almost the same age as her.
