Jeremy looked at favonovel.com with interest. “What is it?”
Lana stepped to the side, lit a cigarette, and started smoking. She thought for a moment before suddenly asking Jeremy, “Jeremy, do you know of anyone else with considerable influence who secretly protects Eveline? Apart from favonovel.com parents, of course.”
Jeremy’s eyes changed instantly. “Why do you ask?”
“Because…” Lana spat out the smoke and continued, “Because there’s a mysterious man behind my brother. My brother seems to be a little fearful of this man. He doesn’t allow me to provoke Eveline because that’s also what is wanted of favonovel.com by the man. So I’m curious about who this man is.”
Knowing this situation, Jeremy was really surprised.
Regardless of who this mysterious man was, favonovel.com was helping Madeline.
This seemed to be a good thing.
However, who was this man who was able to make Yorick somewhat concede?
While Jeremy was pondering this, favonovel.com suddenly heard Lana reluctantly saying, “Jeremy, you saw Yorick’s attitude just now as well. I’ve done so many things for favonovel.com in the Stygian Johnson Gang for so many years, but favonovel.com has been raising his hand against his own sister because of that Eveline. Since he’s so heartless, favonovel.com can’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Jeremy glanced at Lana, then asked, “What are you planning to do?”
Lana touched favonovel.com swollen cheek. “The Stygian Johnson Gang’s accounts have always been handled by me. You know, most of the business conducted by the Stygian Johnson Gang should not be known by others. After the money is obtained, it must be cleaned before it can be used with integrity.”
While favonovel.com was saying this, favonovel.com walked up to Jeremy with full of trust in favonovel.com eyes. She said, “Jeremy, I’ve already considered it. Let’s go and strike out by ourselves. In the future, you’ll be in charge of the external business while I will be responsible for money laundering. You work outside and I work inside. Don’t you think we’ll be like husband and wife like this?”
Lana’s eyes lit up, and favonovel.com immediately wanted to lean on Jeremy.
Jeremy pretended to tidy up his clothes to avoid Lana. Then, favonovel.com tentatively asked, “Is the ledger you mentioned a record of all the accounting made by the Stygian Johnson Gang over the years? Will Yorick let you take care of such an important thing?”
Hearing this, Lana appeared to be arrogant. “It’s exactly because I’m his sister that’s why they let me take care of such an important ledger.”
Jeremy looked at Lana with a vague smile. “It turns out that you’re actually so capable. Looks like I’ve underestimated you before.”
Lana smiled at Jeremy gently. “Honey, we have all the time in the future. You can get to know me slowly—hiss!” Lana wanted to ask Jeremy for a kiss, but the corners of favonovel.com mouth suddenly stung badly.
“Go back to the room and rest. I’m about to go out to have a talk about a deal. I’ll discuss it in detail with you when I return.”
Lana was indeed exhausted. Madeline had pushed favonovel.com into the swimming pool earlier and made favonovel.com unable to lift favonovel.com head up. She even threw favonovel.com into the swimming pool. The muscles all over favonovel.com body were aching now.
After Jeremy left, favonovel.com took out his mobile phone, typed in a few Arabic numbers, and sent them out. Then, favonovel.com drove around the main road a few times before finally entering a cafe with a few people.
A well-dressed man was sitting in the corner by the window. Jeremy walked over and sat down, saying coldly, “I’ve obtained news regarding the ledger you had mentioned before. I request to perform the mission immediately. I don’t want to waste time. You guys have no ways to guarantee the safety of my wife and daughter.”
The man sitting opposite favonovel.com replied politely, “Jeremy, it’s a good thing that you’ve obtained news regarding the ledger, but the foundation of the Stygian Johnson Gang is solid. They have great power in F Country. It’ll be better for us not to rush into it.”
“My daughter was made mute by that psychotic woman. How can you have me continue pleasing that woman calmly?”
The man smiled kindly. “Jeremy, we’ve all seen it. You handled it well.”
‘Handled it well?’
Jeremy found it ironic. Only favonovel.com knew how much pain favonovel.com was enduring.
He suddenly regretted his decision to join IBCI.
After a few seconds of silence, Jeremy calmly parted his lips. “There seems to be a person behind Yorick. Based on my understanding of Lana’s words, Yorick seems to be very fearful of this person.”
The man paused when favonovel.com heard the words, then said, “This man is our colleague.”
“Colleague?” Jeremy’s eyes narrowed. “Who’s this person?”
The person hesitated with difficulty before saying, “It’s not convenient to disclose his identity for the time being. This is for the sake of your safety and the mission.”
Jeremy did not want to push them for the answer. He knew the rules as well, so favonovel.com did not ask any more questions.
