Chapter 1474
Zorion woke up but did not see Santiago''s car. He asked the driver, "Where''s Mr. Santiago?"
"He went to visit Mr. Jepherson. He left about 30 minutes ago. I heard that he was asked to go over
to the police station. The restaurant manager decided to file awsuit against Mr. Santiago for
mistreating the employees. In addition, someone also reported a suspected murder and it all points
toward Mr. Santiago."
"Alright." Zorion thought for a moment. "Has Jepherson woken up yet?"
"Yes, he''s already awake." The driver was told that Jepherson had regained consciousness.
"Let''s head over to the hospital then." Zorion stretched briefly before leaning back in his seat. He
took out his phone and called his father, Rayan.
At this time, Rayan was still asleep. He briefly exchanged a few words with his son before hanging
up.
Rayan went to sit on the chair and drank a ss of water. Hannah couldn''t fall asleep and got up.
She walked over to Rayan and asked him what had happened. Rayan said it was nothing and that
he had trouble falling asleep because he had drink some tea before sleeping.
Hannah sighed and asked Rayan, "Are you worried about Zorion?"
Rayan poured a ss of water for his wife. "Zorion is not a child anymore. I don''t have to worry
about him. Career-wise, I have nothing more to teach him. Everything else, he''ll have to learn on his
own. I don''t think I''ve been a good father."
"Why do you make it sound as if we don''t have a good rtionship with our kids? I personally feel
that you''ve done well as their father," Hannah said proudly.
Rayan smiled and said, "I''m really lucky to have met you, but I''ve done things in the past which I''m
not proud of."
Rayan held Hannah''s hand, feeling an unspeakable sense of guilt.
"It''s all the past. Why are you bringing this up now? It''ste. I think the reason why you can''t fall
asleep is because you''re overthinking. Come on, let''s go." Hannah reached out for her husband''s
hand and pulled him back to bed.
By the time Zorion arrived at the hospital, it was already eight in the evening. He made his way into
the hospital with Rossie and went straight up to the ICU to visit Raeleigh and Jepherson.
Raeleigh had woken up, but her body was still weak. Jepherson, on the other hand, looked perfectly
fine except for his pale face.
Raeleigh felt a wave of guilt wash over her. She owed it to Jepherson this time.
Jepherson was drinking a bowl of soup.
Zorion happened to enter the room with his men while Jepherson was drinking his soup.
When Jepherson saw Zorion, he stopped drinking the soup. He reached out for a piece of tissue
and wiped his mouth before inviting them to sit down. Jepherson asked, "Is Santiago at the police
station?"
"Yes, but I am afraid that this matter is a littleplicated. I have a feeling that the group of people
weren''t actually targeting you and Raeleigh. I think they were targeting Santiago.
The Richards family is now under public scrutiny now. I don''t think you will be able to shrug this
matter off without a reasonable exnation."
Raeleigh was confused. "Why are they targeting Santiago?"
Zorion sat down. He didn''t answer immediately. It was Jepherson who spoke instead.
"Santiago didn''t have a good reputation. Although he hasn''tmitted any crimes, he did provoke a
lot of troubles. The Richards family is like a big tree with deep roots. It''s not easy to take us down.
Their n is to make Santiago a scapegoat and get the rest of the Richards family involved as well.
If the Richards family meddled with this matter, it would mean that Santiago is guilty and I''m sure
the public will not let us off the hook. If the Richards family did not interfere, Santiago would
definitely have to go to jail.
Everything has been well-thought-out. The person who''s behind this is definitely not your average
Joe.
This person probably knows Santiago very well and is familiar with our routine. Otherwise, how
would he be able to predict Santiago''s next move?
That day at the restaurant, you didn''t eat much and they had prepared some soup. They roughly
knew that I would ask you to have some soup instead.
They know it''s impossible to kill Santiago with all the people around him, but it''s very easy to make
use of him.
Only a shrewd person would be able toe up with such an idea.
However, this does not look like Yanora''s doing."
Jepherson looked at Zorion, who asked, "Are you saying that it''s Colston?"
Jepherson thought about it and shook his head. "I don''t think so either."
"Then who?"
"If it was the Doyle family, then I would have known, but there''s no sign of activity from Ste." In
fact, many things were under Jepherson''s control, but there were some things that he did not know.
This was why he was confused. He wondered who was behind all these?
"Could it be Flynt?" Zorion asked.
Jepherson looked at Zorion and hesitated for a moment. "Old habits die hard, but we can''t
determine whether it''s true or not.
However, Flynt had experienced a terrible defeat. Whether or not he''s able to rise back from the
dead would depend entirely on his mood.
Flynt was born aloof and proud. His biggest weakness is that he looks down on everyone else.
He originally had the strong backing of the Cook family, but in order to impress Johan, he
mercilessly regarded the Cook family as a stepping stone and cast them aside after making use of
them.
He is willing to use ruthless means to achieve great things. He thought that he was brilliant, but it
was only a pretense.
There are a lot of people in the Moore family. In fact, they are thergest family here in Capital City.
Even if they have lost their footing in the city, but it was still very easy for them to do something.
But he was isted because of his arrogance.
After being brought down from his high horse, he had no one to help him."
Jepherson thought for a moment and said, "But I doubt he is able to do so many without anyone''s
help. Now that the police came forward, I have a feeling that there''s someone much more powerful
than Flynt working behind the scenes.
And we don''t know much about this person."
The Richards family and the Whalen family are two of the most powerful families in Capital City.
Those with discerning eyes would keep themselves out of trouble after the incident. They wouldn''t
force themselves to stand out.
But who would be so bold toe out at this time? I believe that this person has strong
connections.
This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
If they were not our friends, they would be enemies.
"I can be sure that the police is also working for the person. I really hope that it''s Yanara who is
behind this. Or else, it will be very troublesome and difficult to deal with."
Jepherson continued drinking his soup.
The soup was a little cold. Jepherson looked at the thermos. He poured another bowl and drank it
while it was hot.
When Raeleigh saw his forehead covered in sweat, she asked, "Are you feeling weak?"
Jepherson put down the bowl and asked, "Since when do I ever feel weak?"
Raeleigh was speechless.
Everyone in the room looked at them awkwardly. Jepherson smiled and looked at Zorion. "It''s not
appropriate for us to show up at this time. Why don''t you do it instead?"
"In what name?"
"Tell them that something has happened to the Richards family and that they have been framed.
We''re trying to investigate this matter. You can use Deanna''s name."
"Alright."
Zorion got up and left with Rossie.
After Zorion left, Raeleigh turned to look at
Jepherson and said, "It''s not Flynt."
Jepherson looked at Raeleigh. "Why do you say that?"
Raeleigh pursed her lips. "I just have a feeling it isn''t him. He''s out of town. How could he possibly
do it this time? Plus, he doesn''t have the ability."
"There are only a handful of people who are capable of doing this. Other than Flynt, perhaps his
mother, Elina. If she''s capable of exposing Yanora, it means that she has already decided to fight to
the death. What else can''t she do?"
