She spoke in a barely audible voice,“I want to know who did Zoah help during the meeting.Was it Sean or Christian?”


    “Now that you have brought this up, I found it rather odd. I thought that he would help Christian. But this time, he actually gave up his vote. When he did that, many others gave up their votes too. Another strange thing is that Sean was obviously targeting Christian. The incident that involved the Chief must’ve made Sean feel unsafe,” Anthony Levis reported.


    “I understand. I’m at Zoah’s house now so it’s inconvenient for me to talk. I’ll send you a text. I’ve coded the text using the form that you and Jasper hade up with.”


    “Understood.”


    Ste Grace sent a series of numbers and alphabets toAnthony.


    Anthony knew what Ste meant after deciphering the message.


    After she was done texting, Steopened the door and noticed Zoah’s wife right at the door. She looked very flustered.


    She guessed that Zoahs’s wife had been eavesdropping, but she did not expose her. She smiled and said, “UncleZoahshould be back soon.”


    “Well, do you want to have dinner here tonight? I’ll ask someone to prepare the ingredients,” Zoah’s wife spoke awkwardly.


    “Sure! I remember that your cooking had always been great.I tried it a few years ago and I’m craving for them,” Ste praised.


    “You’re exaggerating. I’m d that you like them. I’ll go and prepare the ingredients now then.”


    “Thank you.”


    Ste stood by the window and looked at the scenery outside. She appeared to be at ease, but deep down, she was actually worried.


    However, feeling anxious would not help her at all.


    Zoah Davis came back an hourter.


    As soon as he got back, he roared angrily at Ste, “What are you trying to do?!”


    “Let’s talk in your study room,” Ste replied smilingly.


    Zoah snorted and headed to the study room. He red at Ste and yelled furiously, “Spill it now.”


    “I remember that the Addington Family and Milton Family used to be close. Simon and Jasper were best friends too,” Ste stated.


    “Don’t try to y the friend card. If you have something to say, then just say it all out and be done with it.What did you mean when you mentioned the information that I’ve been dreaming to get my hands on? Tell me and get the h*ll out of here,” Zoah was furious.


    “A long time ago, we got a piece of information saying that you had leaked the news of Hale’s arrival to the country. YoupurposelytoldAnthony so that you could lead Jasper to make mistakes and then finish him off,” Ste remarked coldly.


    “What are you talking about?” Zoah pointed a finger at her.


    “We have witnesses, so you don’t have to deny it anymore. There is no one else here anyway.


    I was extremely enraged back then. I didn’t expect that it was you who wanted to kill Jasper.


    I wanted to hand over the evidence to the higher-ups, but Jasper refused to.


    He said that Simon was his best friend. He understood that you did it because of Katty.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    I am sure you know what kind of person Jasper was. After all, you watched him grow up, didn’t you?You should know that he had always valued love, friendship, and loyalty,” Ste held herself together.


    Zoah’s brows were snapped together, “What on earth are you trying to do?”


    “Jasper was probably assassinated by Christian. This is because he could do whatever he wants afterJasper’s death. Everyone is aware of his wild ambition and I am sure by now you know his way of doing things. Do you still want to be hisckey or are you going to man up and act like the Deputy Commander instead? Maybe, you could even be the next President,” Ste persuaded.


    Zoah narrowed his eyes and looked at Ste.


    Ste did not back away.


    She could see that Zoah was not afraid ofChristian when he gave up on voting during the conference.Zoah was arrogant, but because of his pride, he was unwilling to seek help from Sean.


    To put it bluntly, Sean and Christian were still young. He, on the other hand, had presumed on his seniority and used this as an excuse to not give in.


    “Is this the news that you wanted to tell me about?” Zoah retorted in disgust.


    “Would you still be willing to meet me if I hadn’t put it that way? I’ve finished what I wanted to say. I think that you should know what to do after this. The presidential election won’t happen for two more years, right?” Ste turned around after that.


    Zoah’s forehead furrowed as he looked at Ste’s back.


    Ste opened the door. Simon was standing at the door with an unnatural expression on his face. He stared at Ste withplicated emotions shing in his eyes.


    “Let’s talk in your room, shall we?” Ste tilted her chin to the right.


    Simon nodded and went to his room. Ste followed him and sat down on a sofa.


    “Do you want a drink?” Simon asked as he opened the wine cab.


    “No thanks, I’m pregnant,” Ste replied softly.


    Simon looked at Ste’s belly, and then closed the door of the wine cab. He sat down across Ste and started talking, “I didn’t expect you to have stic surgery.”


    “I got it because I didn’t want Frederick and Jasper to recognize me. It was not because I wanted to look good. However, it seemed to be useless. I feel like there are a lot of things that are useless in life. Life’s a joke, isn’t it?” Ste gave a light smile.


    “Well, life would not be as exhrating if one could predict the future.I’m really sorry.” Simon looked down on the ground.


    “Oh,” Ste chuckled, “Most people would have done the same, so there’s nothing to be sorry about. If you helped Jasper, you would be betraying your family. If you helped your family, you would be going against Jasper. It’s easier for you to not meddle in it.”


    “I heard the conversation between you and my father,” Simon spoke in a deep voice.


    “I miss that uplicated time that I used to have with my friends and family. At that time, you and Jasper were really close,” Ste was a little sad.


    “You’re going to deal with Christian, aren’t you? I’ll help you. Just call me if you need anything,” Simon offered without hesitation.


    Ste sneered,“If Jasper needed your help, he would havee to you a long time ago. However, he did not want to ruin the rtionship between you and your father. Perhaps, that was his way of treating you as a friend. He didn’t want you to be involved. Simrly, I won’t involve you in this too. I just hope that one day, you would not be their aplice.”


    “What are you trying to say?” Simon questioned sharply.


    “I am just a little worried. You know, it’s not the enemy but friends who will hurt you the most,” Ste exined. Then, she stood up while staring at her phone.


    There was still no news from Anthony. Maybe, they had not found Eugene yet.However, it could also mean that they had not failed yet.


    She turned to Simon,“I’m really hungry. I think that dinner should be ready soon.I will leaveif it’s not ready yet,I need to depart early as I live quite far from here.”


    “I think that it should be ready now. You’re pregnant. I’ll take you home.” Simon got up and opened the door.


    Zoah seemed to be talking to his wife.It looked like he was scolding her.
