CHAPTER 485INVESTIGATION "I'm just so tired of everything, I feel like there are hidden people working against us," Avery murmured, almost in tears. She wasn't happy with everything that was happening."You think it's people we don't know. I don't quite agree with you. I feel like we know them, but they haven't completely shown who they really are, but we can make a guess," Jeremy said. Deep down, he knew who was doing this, but since he had no proof, he couldn't point to that person."You have an idea who the person is, tell me so I can know who my enemies are," Avery spoke up. Her face was stressed. It was obvious that she had worked so hard these past weeks and needed a lot of rest."I can't really say, I feel like the Senator, the three wise men, the former estate manager and all the people who have had one problem or another with us are somehow involved in this," Jeremy claimed, but he wasn't sure yet.He was very concerned, especially now that they were attacking his wife's bu

CHAPTER 487MR VALENTINE Jeremy took his phone out of his pocket and called Mr. Valentine, he just wanted to talk to the man and be done with it.After Jefferson gave him the man's details, he thought about the best time to call him as he was a very busy man.People in such powerful positions need to be handled carefully, because small things can easily upset them. If you call them at the wrong time, or if you do not answer their questions quickly and correctly, they tend to get very angry and lash out.Jeremy looked at the man's contact on his phone. He had tried to get some information on Mr. Valentine, but it seems that everyone is afraid of him, even those who have information are afraid to talk about the man. He needed to know how powerful the man was and the only way to do that was to just call the man and talk to him directly.Jefferson had told him that Mr. Valentine was as big as his father in the business world, if not bigger. He's one of those people who gives orders in se

CHAPTER 489THE ISLAND Jeremy was very shocked because he doesn't understand why the man's tone suddenly changed.This was someone who didn't want to speak with him a few moments ago. Jeremy was already thinking that it was a lost battle but now the man has suddenly just changed.Immediately he had told Jeremy that he had nothing to say to him after mentioning his father's name, Jeremy was very disappointed.He still Wondered why the man had said such a thing to him. They've never met before and he has never done anything to offend him, so why did he speak to him in that manner. What could be the reason he thought.His father only mentioned that they were rivals in some areas back when they were still in school because they were both very intelligent.They also had done some businesses together in the past, doesn't that mean that they are friend enemies, Jeremy reasoned but he didn't want to think much about it.Mr Valentine had promised to cancel his travel appointment just to meet

CHAPTER 491UNEXPLAINABLE EMOTION"How long have you been working for Mr. Valentine," Jeremy asked Vivian, trying to make small talk with her. He wanted to see if he could get any valuable information from her."I haven't been here long," Vivian replied with a straight face."You must know everything there is to know about Mr. Valentine since you've been working with him for so long," Jeremy said with a small smile on his face.Vivian stopped in her tracks as she faced Jeremy. Her gaze narrowed on him like a predator watching its prey. Her demeanor changed almost instantly, she was no longer the girl who had smiled at him a few moments before."Why are you asking so many questions Mr. Nathaniel," Vivian asked, she didn't like the question Jeremy had asked earlier.She worked closely with Mr. Valentine, so she's very conscious of what she says. She could get into trouble, and you never know who might be watching."Well, I didn't ask for a bad reason. I'm very sorry if I offended you, b

CHAPTER 493THE INCIDENCE Jeremy was very surprised by what Mr. Valentine had just said. He didn't understand what was going on, the idea he was presented with was something he couldn't even imagine, it wasn't possible."You dated my mother, how is that possible? I can't believe it, it can't be true. My mom never told me she dated anyone but my dad," Jeremy said with shock written all over his face.Jeremy wanted to laugh at what Mr. Valentine was doing. He was actually trying to pull a fast one on him, but the seriousness on the man's face made him think otherwise.And if that was true, why would his father send him to Mr. Valentine knowing that he had stolen his mother from him? The story didn't add up for him, he needed clarity."Yes, me and your mother had a relationship before your father came into the picture and ruined it for us," Mr. Valentine muttered, his voice thick and clouded with anger.Looking at his face, you would think the anger was directed at Jeremy, but it was re
