Chapter 1433 Found Them


    By the time evening came, the Gu Family was covered in despair. The day had been filled with


    unfortunate events, so they felt broken and helpless, to say the least.


    A single faintmpshade was the only source of light in the living room.


    Jacob was sitting at his desk silently. He couldn''t stop himself from recalling Emily''s poor defenseless


    state earlier that day. The light in his eyes grew dim, and the incredible amount of stress he was going


    through could be seen from the shadows under his eyes.


    He thought about how the reporters had blocked every possible way of escape, forcing Emily to stay


    and bear all of their questions. Her depression had finally been cured recently. But with the problem


    she was facing, she could fall into despair once again. Was someone nning to destroy her whole


    life? If so, who was the person behind all of this?


    After a few hours, the veil of the night was reced with the light of dawn.


    However, Emily couldn''t sleep well for even a second. Yesterday''s events had caused her emotions to


    be unstable yet again. She tossed and turned in bed, trying hard to make herselffortable. But


    she didn''t fall asleep until a few hours before dawn. Nheless, she still woke up early that day.


    And so did Jacob.


    After washing up in the bathroom, Jacob noticed that Emily was still lying in bed while staring at the


    window in a daze. A slight frown made its way on his face. He was fully aware that she was still


    troubled. Then he walked towards her and said, "Honey, what''s wrong?" When his question was met


    with silence, Jacob sat down beside Emily and ced his arms around her in a warm embrace.


    Emily was still in a daze. Only when she felt Jacob''s arms around her did shee to her senses. "I''m


    fine," she answered simply. Then, she looked out the window again. Jacob couldn''t help but feel


    worried.


    Even though Emily said she was fine, it was obvious that she was in despair. Her eyes alone showed


    how much pain she was going through. Jacob opted not to force her to share her feelings anymore.


    Instead, he simply caressed her hair and uttered words that he thought would beforting for her.


    "Don''t worry. I''ll fix everything. I swear," he said firmly.


    After a while, they finished their breakfast. Jacob then headed out to thepany.


    The first thing he did when he got there was to look for Sam. He needed to ask him about his


    investigation about yesterday''s incident. "Sam, pleasee to my office right now," Jacob said on the


    telephone in his office.


    Sam ran as fast as he could to Jacob''s office the moment the call ended. It was clear that the only


    reason that Mr. Gu hade so early to thepany was to resolve the matter involving Emily.


    "Sam, what do you think about what happened yesterday?" Jacob asked while he tapped the table


    rhythmically.


    Sam quickly answered without hesitation, "Mr. Gu, in my opinion, it was Darren who nned all of this.


    I''m sure he thinks we''re a pain in the ass, so he nned a way to destroy us." Sam paused for a


    moment to calm down and then continued, "And I think his n was to use two people. One is the


    ''injured'' person, the ''victim, '' and the other was the one who deliberately took those photos to spread


    them on the inte."


    Sam''s assumptions were exactly what Jacob had thought as well. It was hard to implicate Darren


    because they were certain that he had nned this so meticulously that they wouldn''t be able to


    connect it to him directly. In order to resolve this problem, they had to start with the two people working


    for him.This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org .


    "Then where do you think should we start first?" Jacob asked while he furrowed his eyebrows.


    "I think we should go after Darren''s recent bank transactions. It might lead us to some clues," Sam


    replied.


    "Alright, good work. Go now and check Darren''s bank records," Jacob firmlymanded.


    "Yes, Mr. Gu, I''ll do it as soon as possible," Sam quickly responded and left the room to continue his


    investigation.


    He thought it would be easier to track down the person who had faked an injury yesterday. Because if


    Darren had hired someone to act like that, he must have paid him a lot of money. And if that were the


    case, he wouldn''t have paid in cash. It would certainly show up in his bank records.


    Sure enough, using the resources of the Gu Consortium, Sam got the transfer information of all the


    bank cards under Darren''s name without spending too much effort.


    And when he checked the records, Sam found something that seemed off. Three million dors had


    been transferred from one of Darren''s ounts to another ount, and the transaction had happened


    yesterday, the day that Emily had been framed.


    Tracing the ount that had received the money, Sam quickly found out the real identity of the


    "injured" person, which sessfully proved that there was something suspicious going on.


    Sam continued to follow the clues, and soon enough, he found the identity of the person who had taken


    the pictures.


    Meanwhile, Jacob was sitting in his office, contemting how everything could have happened. After


    an incident like this, the people involved in the crime would find a ce toy low for a while.


    It might seem like a tall order to look for those people, but Jacob wouldn''t allow them to get away that


    easily, especially after hurting his beloved wife.


    Suddenly, Sam called Jacob to tell him the identities of the people they were looking for. Jacob didn''t


    hesitate to give Sam a new order. "Sam, will you please invite the two of them over? Make sure to do it


    in a very kind way. After all, we have some business to discuss," Jacob stated darkly.


    The moment that Jacob finished speaking, Sam quickly took action. He searched for the location of the


    two culprits. And when he found it, he and several special assistants of the Gu Consortium were


    deployed by a private ne.


    It was already evening when they arrived at their location. The GPS showed that the two men were


    currently in a bar near the town.


    Sam quickly ordered his men to block the two exits. Once they were in position, Sam put on a pair of


    shades and a cap as a disguise. Then, he went inside and looked for their targets.


    The bar was dimly lit and the stench of alcohol and cigarettes surrounded the air. Women were dancing


    to the music. Even the bartender was gently swaying his body while making sses of elegant looking


    cocktails.


    The two men Sam was looking for were having fun in a corner, surrounded by a group of sexy and


    enchanting women. Even though they were far from the entrance, their boisterousughter could be


    heard throughout the bar.


    They were having the time of their lives. But suddenly, the reporter felt a tall figure blocking the light


    behind him.


    "Who the hell is standing behind me? Get out of here before I punch you in the face!" the reporter


    shouted and stood up from his chair.


    When he turned around, his eyes met a deep and dark gaze.


    The man who had faked an injury looked up at Sam and instantly felt that he knew him from


    somewhere.


    All their enthusiasm dissipated when they saw Sam. Moreover, the reporter couldn''t bear the thought of


    being weak, causing him to be more agitated. He quickly threw a punch in Sam''s direction but thetter


    casually blocked him before the punch couldnd. Though Sam could feel the impact of the punch, he


    wasn''t affected that much. After all, the man who had caused his boss so much trouble was right in


    front of him.


    Upon noticing that trouble was brewing, all the women that surrounded them left in a hurry, leaving only


    the three of them in the corner.


    The two culprits looked at each other and sensed that something was wrong, so they tried to get away


    as fast as they could. One ran to the front door while the other ran to the back.


    Sam knew that he had already seeded, so instead of chasing them, he remained where he was and


    sneered at their foolish attempt to escape. When he was done feeling amused, he casually walked out


    of the bar.


    His special assistants who had been guarding the front and back exits saw the two culprits and took


    them down in one swoop. Before the two could so much as yell for help, they were forcibly dragged to


    the car.


    When everyone else was inside the car, Sam made his way to the front passenger seat.


    The moment that the reporter got a second look at Sam''s face, his pupils dted in shock. He struggled


    hard, trying to escape from the car.


    Sam gave his assistant a simple look. The assistant began repeatedly hitting the neck and shoulders of


    the two culprits, causing both of them to fall silent until they passed out from the pain.


    Sam nodded in satisfaction. He knew then that he hadpleted his mission. He then told the driver,


    "Drive.


    It''s time to go back. You in the back, watch them closely. If they wake up, hit them again until they pass


    out. These two bastards will pay the price soon. Mr. Gu is very serious about them. I will not allow


    anyone to mess this up!" Sam firmly ordered the assistants.


    They flew back that same night. After securing the culprits, Sam immediately called Jacob on his


    phone. "Hello, Mr. Gu, I have some good news. I have both of them right here with me."


    The two men, who had passed out from the beatings, gradually woke up and came to their senses. The


    reporter felt disoriented. He slowly opened his eyes and tried to look around, but a sharp pain struck


    him in the neck.


    The constant beating that he had received had leftrge bruises all over his back. As he tried to recall


    what had happened to him, the man who had faked an injury suddenly woke up as well.


    He said that he seemed to hear some voicesing from somewhere.


    So the two of them looked around but could see nothing but darkness. Not a single source of light


    could be found. After realizing that their hands were bound, both of them knew that they were in deep


    trouble.


    Suddenly, a dazzling sh of light covered the entire room. The culprits'' eyes blinked in difort.


    They weren''t used to the bright light due to being asleep in the dark for so long. When their eyes finally


    adjusted to the light, they saw a man standing in front of them. He had sharp facial features and a pair


    of dark looming eyes, which were staring straight at them.


    s, it was Jacob.


    The two of them paled in disbelief. They had never imagined that Jacob could find them this quickly. It


    seemed like their short amount of fun was already past them. Now, it was time to pay the price.
