Chapter 945
from
Since Sophia’s 200 million dollars were deposited in Randerland Bank, that indicated that the money in
that account was dirty money. her corrupt acts.
Her ability to withdraw 200 million dollars as she wished suggested that the sum she had embezzled
was astronomical.
It was probably money she reaped from various sources within Beckett Group. Other than that, she
must have also used her status
as the chairman’s wife to receive bribes.
“Xavier, has Sophia already transferred the money to Jeffrey?” Jasper asked softly, with a glint in his
eyes.
“She has.”
“Has he withdrawn the money?”
“Not yet. It’s such a large sum of money. He would probably need a dump truck to fit all that money. It
would be too obvious if he transported the cash. He still needs to make a getaway.”
Jasper nodded slightly and said, “Right. Then, you should call the cops right now. Have them freeze
Jeffrey’s account.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“On it, Mr. Beckett.” Xavier got up to get it done immediately.
Indeed, it would be easier for the police to work on something like freezing someone’s bank account.
“When that bugger is unable to get his money, I suppose he will become desperate and rebel against
Sophia.”
Alyssa’s eyes were sharp and bright. She said, “Right now, we should have Jeffrey chased down. Once
he’s caught, we’ll have him spill
Landon was sitting with his legs crossed. He chimed in suddenly, “I have news about that man.”
Alyssa and Jasper both exclaimed, “What?”
“If not, why would I come knocking on your door out of the blue? Did you think that I was just dropping
by? Even if that were so, I would have brought Lauren with me.”
He placed his left arm over the edge of the couch’s backrest and sat arrogantly like a thug.
“My people found a lead when they were investigating at South Pier. Two fishermen witnessed Jeffrey
getting on a cargo ship at midnight. the day before yesterday.
“That cargo ship was set to sail to Tsulu. It looks like he’s planning to smuggle himself out of the
country.”
“Tsulu? Is there any possibility that he’s making a detour to a different country along the way?” Alyssa
asked as she furrowed her brows slightly. She had a worried expression on her face.
“That’s possible. However, the two countries that they will pass by along the way are small countries in
the middle of nowhere. How is he going to spend his 200 million dollars there? Use it to light fire?”
Landon continued, “So I instructed my people to follow him in secret. I even asked them to keep a
close watch on the ports of the other countries along the way.
“That said, I also warned them not to alert him. If Jeffrey jumps into the sea or changes his mode of
transport to a yacht, a kayak, or anything of the sort, it will be even more challenging for us to capture
him.
“Don’t worry. Even if the cops are unable to arrest him because he’s

Smuggling contraband was no challenge for Harper Group. After all, that was how they had built their
company in the first place.
“Jonah has some connections in Tsulu. I’ll reach out to him shortly. Then, both of you can work together
to capture Jeffrey.”
Alyssa was pumped. She almost wished that she could be the one who caught him with her own
hands,

Jasper shot him a fierce look. He glared coldly at Landon’s cheeky
face.
When did he learn how to pull such an idiotic expression? Who was he trying to flatter?
Having received such good news from Jasper and Landon, Alyssa was beaming from ear to ear.
Of course, she was a good host. Hence, she went to the bar to make them something to drink.
While Alyssa was away, Landon seized the opportunity to scoot over to Jasper’s side.
“Are you feeling cold?” Jasper asked
“Hmm? I’m not,” Landon answered.
“Keep your distance, then. I don’t like the scent of your cologne.”
“Tsk, why are you so demanding? Who cares if you like it or not? As long as Lauren likes it, that’s all
that matters!” While Landon said that, he scrutinized every single detail on Jasper’s face.
Then, he spotted a red smudge hidden on the collar of his shirt.
Landon squinted slightly, then lowered his voice and asked, “Jasper, last night, did both of you… do it?”
Jasper’s long lashes quivered, and his pupils wavered slightly. “How did you know?”
As much as he was trying to refrain himself, his lips still curled up slightly, signaling his satisfaction, as
if he just had a gratifying meal.
“Shit, you pretty much have the word ‘predator’ written on your face! Do you know how greasy you
looked just now? I lost my appetite just looking at you!” Landon couldn’t help but tease him.
