If it turned out that Michel Wang was indeed the mastermind behind Kirk and his gangsters, then there was more to him than everyone had anticipated. Even before ZL Group started to cooperate with Wang Group, Matthew had asked someone to make a thorough investigation on Michel's background, but they couldn't didn't find anything suspicious about him.

"You mean Michel Wang is manipulating the contraband trade in secret?" Sheffield asked. Matthew had told Sheffield about what Erica had been doing in Tow Village to some extent, and as such, he had a rough idea about who she was looking for.

"If I'm not mistaken, that's it," Matthew replied with some certainty. The information from Gifford was flawless and accurate. Moreover, Sheffield and Erica did bump into Michel when they were coming out of the bar.

"I also sent people from the gangland to investigate Michel, but they couldn't find anything on that man," said Sheffield. As he clutched his chin in a pensive manner, the more Sheffield thought about this mysterious man, the more curious he was.

He decided to have his people keep a close eye on Michel, just to ensure the safety of his sister-in-law, Erica.

"I'll call Gifford and touch base with him. Good night."

"Okay."

By the time Matthew finally found Gifford on the phone, the latter had already returned to the Li family's house and walked up to the second floor. There was no one else there with Gifford as his wife was supposed to be back the next day.

Gifford answered the phone and whispered, "Why are you calling me in the middle of the night? Why aren't you asleep in the arms of your loving wife?"

"The information you gave Rika—where did you get it?"

"Oh, two days ago, I took a group of people to destroy the den of a notorious gang. After being tortured, the group of gangsters told me that they were going to make a deal in a bar in Y City in two days. I put two and two together and realized that I had found the clues Rika was looking for." Gifford stopped at the door of his son's room and quietly leaned against it instead of going inside.

"Have your men pay more attention to Michel Wang, the CEO of Wang Group in Y City. I'm sure you'll find something fishy if you look hard enough."

"All right! Got it! Sounds like you're onto something. Just leave it to me and I'll look into it." There was a sense of urgency in Matthew's tone which led Gifford to strongly believe that Michel was not an ordinary person. Fortunately, Gifford was eager and ready to take up the challenge.

Just like that, Matthew, Sheffield and Gifford joined hands to fi

. The only people in the living room were Gifford and his son.

The moment Hugo saw his mother come in, he threw away the toys from his hands and ran to her. "Mommy!"

Chantel picked up her son with little difficulty and kissed him on the cheek. "Good boy." Then she looked at the expressionless man sitting with his lips sealed and awkwardly apologized, "I'm sorry. I was planning on coming back yesterday, but something important came up in K Country, so I..."

Gifford knew what she was going to say next, so he cut her short. "Something important? You mean when you went inside the same building with another man in the middle of the night?"

With her son still in her arms, Chantel froze for a moment. Due to her best efforts to suppress the news, Chantel didn't expect Gifford to find out so soon.

"No, I just saw the news too. I was just in the same building with Red, but he was staying a floor above me." The paparazzi that photographed her deliberately made it look like she and Red were engaged in a morally questionable activity.

Without a word, Gifford came over and took the boy from her arms. "So he's in a favored position to get close to you?" he said.

Chantel had nothing to say. Since she had to visit K Country quite often, Chantel decided to buy an apartment there. She had just stayed there a few times after she bought it. The idea of having to sell the new apartment just to avoid suspicion seemed a little absurd to her.

However, the man, who was climbing up the stairs with his son in his arms, suddenly stopped and turned around to look at the woman. "Don't people in the entertainment circles often play Weibo or something like that? You should probably come clean about everything on Weibo."
