Charlie nodded his head lightly and looked toward Jasmine, who was beside him. "Yesterday, did Hashimoto first call you to ask you to sign the agreement with the President?" Jasmine answered confidently, "That's right. Hashimoto calledfirst to askto go to Nishitama to sign the agreement with the President." Charlie snorted, "It looks like the problem is with Hashimoto. He is the one who deceived you to go to Nishitama. Then, he set a trap there along the mountain road." 3 Feeling confused, Jasmine asked, "Master Wade, I don't understand why Hashimoto would want to harm me? I've got nothing against him. Even before this, we've never crossed paths. Why would he set a trap to kill me?" Charlie answered coldly, "Many perpetrators and victims don't know each other. The real urge for murdering the other party would most likely be benefits gained. If he kills you, he'll get his reward. That's why he's willing to do so." 1 Jasmine felt even more astonished, and she asked, "I honestly can't relate. If I were to die, how would it benefit him? He wouldn't get anything!" 3 Looking at Jasmine, Charlie replied seriously, "If you died, it would be hard for him to get any benefits. But, more importantly, after you've died, someone else may give him sbenefits!" Jasmine's expression tightened immediately. "Master Wade... You... You mean... Someone employed him to kill me?!" Charlie nodded his head determinedly. "I think that should be the case!" Jasmine was nervous for a while. At the stime, she could not understand the reason. She mumbled," But... but... this doesn't make sense... I've never offended anyone! If I die, who would benefit from it?!" Charlie looked at her and laughed, but he did not say anything. This was because, in his mind, he already had an answer.
He had a hunch that the mastermind was most likely Reuben and his father, Tyler. 6 Charlie fully understood the situation in the Moore family.

Among them, the influence of Reuben's father was the greatest.
This was because he was the eldest and had also been the appointed successor by grandpa initially.
Therefore, in Jasmine's life, Reuben had the strongest influence on her.
Moreover, Jasmine had no parents and was alone.
Thus, her influence was not as great. 3 Luckily, Lord Moore was there to care for and love her. Even though her parents were not around, she had experienced the treatment of a young lady.
