Chapter 227


    "Mr. Richards, this time, Christopher took down the drug den and made a really huge impact.


    Currently, the international crime organization has sneaked into A city," Alvin said unexpectedly.


    Hansen sat up.


    "Did you see them?" he asked in surprise.


    "Yes." Alvin nodded and assured him, "Earlier today, I sent a small group of people to enter the


    nightclub. Brock''s den has some movements too."


    Hansen''s eyes narrowed and the light in his eyes sparkled.


    "Alvin, Christopher is going to take this opportunity to get rid of these dens once and for all. There


    are a lot of them. Last night, Christopher personally led the interrogation and received some intel


    too. He and his deputies acted overnight; they managed to clear a drug den in A city. Now, it''s not


    surprising that all the dens in the city have been associated with organized crime. We need to pay


    close attention to Brock''s movements. When the time is right, we will catch Brock alive, interrogate


    him and solve Javon''s case," Hansen ordered.


    "Okay." Alvin nodded and asked in a puzzled manner, "But, will Christopher agree?"


    "Hmph." Hansen snorted coldly with a weird smile appearing on the corners of his mouth. He said


    coldly, "If we didn''t need to work with him, we would have caught Brock alive much earlier. We


    wouldn''t have to wait until now."


    Thinking of the previous night where Christopher made him drunk, there was a trace of hatred in his


    heart.


    It was normal for Hansen to worry that Christopher would spoil the n. Hansen knew his personal


    vendetta would have to wait but it did not mean that he would need topletely listen to


    Christopher. If anything happened to Brock, Javon''s case would turn cold.


    He could listen to him but he was the one calling the shots here.


    "If we do it, will it affect the police? After all, it''s a narcotics operation and the crime of obstructing


    justice is too great to bear." Alvin was worried. Such a crime was serious.


    "That is why I have asked John to have the Grand Eagles spy on Brock. Currently, even Christopher


    doesn''t know where Brock is hiding. We have to cooperate with the police, catch Brock and bring


    him to court." Hansen pondered and reminded Alvin, "You must figure out what the police are doing


    and report to me."


    "Rx, Mr. Richards, I will," Alvin promised.


    Hansen was very tired. He closed his eyes and waved at Alvin to dismiss him.


    Just as Alvin was about to leave, he suddenly heard Hansen ask, "Alvin, is the new evidence on


    Earl''s corruption that you said thest time still around?"


    Alvin thought for a while and nodded. "Yes, Mr. Richards."


    "Okay, continue to make the preparations," Hansen instructed lightly.


    Alvin was a little confused. When he found evidence the other time, Hansen clearly said on the


    phone to stop for the moment. Why was he asking for it again? However, he just nodded in


    agreement.


    Alvin walked out afterwards.


    Hansen knocked on the back of the sofa, stood up, walked to the phone, and dialed a few numbers.


    "Caleb, did you get the information I asked for?"


    "Mr. Richards, I have almost everything I could get my hands on but some have been transferred,"


    Caleb said with a trembling voice. His life waspletely scr*wed ever since Hansen kept an eye


    on him. He was living in terror every day and could only hope it would end someday soon.


    Hansen sneered and hung up.


    "Young Madam, time is of the essence on preparing the venue, food, performance, and also the


    layout of the central ind. This is the first time the manor is hosting such arge- scale annual


    banquet. It is better to prepare in advance." Butler Maud got nervous after receiving the


    responsibility to handle the banquet and came to ask Jenna for instructions early that day.


    Jenna was scanning through arge piece of paper. With her eyebrows furrowed slightly, she slowly


    raised her head.


    "Butler Maud, do you have anyone in mind?" she asked slowly.


    Some too many people wanted to butter up to Jenna recently. Everyone was eyeing this event.


    Jenna knew it well but she didn''t say it out loud.


    "Young Madam, quite a few units are rmending themselves but you still have to make the final


    decision." Butler Maud put on a smile.


    Jenna slowly looked through the list Frederic used forst year''s New Year''s banquet in her hand.


    Back then, it was the talk of the town. Therefore, the banquet enhanced thepany''s reputation. It


    was indeed a good choice.


    Although it used up a lot of money, it was a win-win situation.


    Jenna used the Vice President title of the Richards Group to get this list from Frederic.


    After makingparisons, she knew what to do.


    "What is Vivian doing?" There were footsteps in the hallway and then she heard a delicate voice


    that coupled with a strong scent of perfume.


    Jenna immediately felt goosebumps forming on her skin.


    Aria swaggered in with Minnie.


    What was she doing?


    Jenna knitted her brows.


    She felt a sense of difort when she saw Aria.


    "Jenna, little did I know you were that good being the head of the manor. My back was hurting for


    the past few days, therefore I didn''t visit Vivian. I only found out today that you''ve be the head


    of the manor," Aria said with a smile, acting friendly while her hands touched her belly, showing off


    from time to time.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Ms. McAdams, have a seat. Meroy is not here yet. Vivian may still be asleep." Minnie helped Aria


    sit as she wanted to be on her good side.


    "Okay." Aria sat on the sofa.


    "Ms. McAdams, sit tight. I''ll pour you a ss of water. You have to stay hydrated especially when


    you''re pregnant." Minnie smiled and went to the water dispenser.


    Jenna''s office was next to Vivian''s bedroom. Aria could have waited in the living room or the studio


    but she somehow decided to sit in Jenna''s office. Jenna was very unhappy.


    She felt strange. Aria usually did not visit Vivian. Why was she here several times a week these


    days? Was she trying to butter up Vivian?


    Probably.


    Aria was pregnant. From time to time, she would visit Vivian to remind her that she was pregnant


    with the Richards family blood. Vivian should not forget her.


    Jenna understood this little trick.


    She stood up, packed berthings, and left.


    Picking up the small bag on the desk, she raised her head and saw Minnie''s eyes observing


    around. Her eyes were constantly ncing everywhere and she looked a little flustered.


    Jenna frowned deeper and felt her heart drop.


    What was Minnie looking at? The room was very simple. There was nothing to see.


    However, her eyes were not just fixed on the house. She swept nces at the surroundings even


    when she poured the water.


    "Cough, cough." Jenna deliberately coughed twice.


    Minnie seemed to be very startled. Her body shivered and panic shed across her face. She


    quickly withdrew her gaze.


    Jenna stood up, approached her, and stared at her straight in the eye. After a moment or so, she


    turned around and walked out.


    "That b*tch." Minnie was so frightened by Jenna that she scolded bitterly behind her back after


    watching her walk out.


    "Just let her be for a few days," Aria said softly. "You should also pay attention to yourposure.


    Don''t act suspicious."


    "Yes, I know," Minnie whispered.


    The two sat on the sofa peacefully and waited for Meroy toe.


    Jenna walked out of Ink Garden and felt weird. For the past two days, she felt that the atmosphere


    here was a little weird. Just as she thought about it, she saw Nortoning from the front as she


    turned around. Perhaps because he saw her, he didn''t walk over but stopped in his tracks.


    After hesitating for a while, he turned around.


    Jenna was suspicious and didn''t n to let him go this time.


    Since he came out of jail, he had been avoiding her. For a couple of times, he hid or pretended not


    to see her. This time was no exception.


    Sabrina''s innocent smile floated in Jenna''s mind.


    "Norton, stay where you are," she spoke in a lowered voice.


    Norton''s legs trembled and he stopped in his tracks.


    "Jenna, it''s you." He turned around and greeted her with a smile, pretending as if he had just seen


    Jenna.


    Jenna sneered in her heart. It was unnecessary to expose him.


    "Norton, I have something to say," she said in a t tone.


    "Alright, but maybe next time? I have something to do now." Norton raised his eyebrow and his


    nce was a little unfocused. It was as if he was trying to cover up his panic and guilt.


    Something? What could he be doing? He was suspended from work and he was hanging around in


    the garden all day. Seeing how reluctant he was, she knew that he was making excuses.


    "It''ll only take a few seconds," Jenna said coldly. She didn''t want to waste her time on him but she


    tried her best to hold back as she thought of Sabrina.


    "Jenna, I can only say sorry about your father. Believe me, I didn''t want your father to die. I loved


    you so much and was unwilling to hurt you. How could I possibly think of killing your dad?" he


    whispered as his whole body tensed.


    All he could feel was fear each time he saw Jenna. He didn''t even dare look into her eyes.


    "Enough," Jenna said coldly. "I didn''te to you for this."


    "What could it be then?" Norton raised his head, puzzled, as he heard her response and looked at


    her face. Only at this moment did he realize how ashen Jenna''s face had gotten. The once beautiful


    and innocent woman was gone, and her face was full of sorrow and indifference. There was a


    shadow in those eyes that was once clear. She lost her passion and all this was probably because


    of him. He said uneasily as he felt a pain in his heart, "Jenna, I''m sorry... I won''t mind if you hate


    me."
