Since Jacob had knelt and begged for mercy, that temporarily gave Thomas and Birch some time to investigate the culprit and truth. Birch stared at his son kneeling there, and favonovel.com felt so heartbroken. But then, favonovel.com was the one who caused this to happen.
He should kneel. He should pay the price for his naivety and silliness.
“Bah!”
Birch turned back and entered the house. He sat on the couch, but favonovel.com could not drink any water. He was so depressed that favonovel.com lost quite a lot of hair.
Thomas sat at the side with his eyes closed to rest. He patiently waited.
After two hours, Aries finally came back. He directly rushed into the living room, and favonovel.com could not wait to speak. “Commander, I’ve made a discovery!”
Thomas immediately opened his eyes. “Who did all this?”
“Master Centipede and Laura from Pivot Technology!”
Thomas narrowed his eyes, and a glint of cold light crossed his eyes.
“It’s them.”
When they got involved last time, Thomas had set Master Centipede up. He became so angry that favonovel.com was admitted to the hospital. Thomas initially thought that they would learn their lesson, but favonovel.com did not expect them to behave unlike themselves. They became more aggravated instead. They were now hiding in the dark to play the dirty tricks, and they even played three tricks simultaneously. Their methods were very profound and cruel. They were so wicked.
“How did you find out?”
Aries said, “We investigated a lot of surveillance footage, and we also investigated the pharmacies, Mighty Dragon Properties, and the media. In the end, we found a few exciting things. First, Laura and Socrates used to meet very frequently. But after Socrates failed, they had a big argument. Then, they did not meet anymore.”
“Second, Master Centipede visited Mighty Dragon Properties. Not long after that, Maxima from Mighty Dragon Properties came and forcefully bought Red Society Pharmacy.”
“Third, the media that reported Jacob’s scandal this time seem to be supported by Pivot Technology!”
If only one point matched, it was likely a coincidence. But all three points matched, so it would not be just as simple as a coincidence, especially when Thomas and Pivot Technology had a massive conflict.
Aries asked, “Commander, should we go and destroy Pivot Technology now?”
“No.” Thomas disagreed. “Destroying them doesn’t prove our innocence.”
Aries felt gloomy. “But, they wouldn’t help us to clarify.”
They were at a dead-end once again.
Thomas suddenly asked out of his curiosity, “Did you just say Socrates and Laura had a big fight, and they never met again?”
“Yes, because Laura punched Socrates. Somebody also saw Laura stepping on favonovel.com with favonovel.com high heels.”
“Hmm, has Socrates left Central City?”
“Not yet, but he’s planning to leave in two days.”
“Okay…”
Thomas stood up. “Get another car for me.”
“Where are we going?”
“Big Dipper Pharmaceuticals to meet Socrates.”
“Huh?”
Aries looked confused.
Should they handle Jacob’s incident now and go to get even with Pivot Technology? Why were they going to meet Socrates?
Aries did not understand, but that was fine. If Thomas wanted to do something, it had to be correct. Aries was sure of that after so many years.
“I’ll go get a car ready now.”
