Chapter 2932
After departing from the scene, Seth and his group updated Max about the outcome.
Max then relayed the information to Jared. "Mr. Johnston, everything went as planned. We let Scorpio go," Max
reported over the phone.
Jared, maintaining his usual calm demeanor, hummed in response.
Max continued, "We collaborated with the police to apprehend some of Scorpio's men. Damien is back in custody
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand will face trial today."
Pleased with the outcome, Jared commended, "Good job."
"It all unfolded just as you predicted," Max sighed.
From the beginning, Mr. Johnston had anticipated Scorpio's actions. After strategizing with law enforcement
responsible for the case, they set up the trap, and indeed, Scorpio took the bait.
Mr. Johnston, Scorpio might make other moves now," Max speculated.
Given today's events, once Scorpio reflected on it, he'd realize he fell into a trap and would not be able to gain any
information from Damien. So, he might take matters into his own hands.
Jared narrowed his eyes slightly with a hint of ruthlessness."
Let's see what he intends to do."
"I'll arrange for surveillance," Max responded cautiously.
Meanwhile, at Riddle Corporation, Lulu burst into Nicole’s office, excitedly reporting, "Damien's been taken back to
court."
Nicole arched an eyebrow. "What happened?"
"It seems someone tried to snatch Damien while he was en route, but the authorities were onto their plan
beforehand.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey not only apprehended the culprits but also unveiled their hideout..." Lulu briefed Nicole on the situation.
Nicole squinted. 'Could it be...’
Suddenly, a spark of realization crossed Nicole's face, a faint smirk forming. She likely understood.
This entire episode was likely orchestrated by Jared through Max. They were already aware of Scorpio's intentions,
so they collaborated with law enforcement to raid Scorpio's base.
With this failed attempt and the discovery of their hideout, Scorpio must be seething.
"Nicole, do you think there might be any other surprises?" Lulu asked in a hushed tone.
Casting a glance at Lulu, Nicole shook her head, "No, there won't be."
