"Let me send someone to help with the investigation!" Xander said.
"Thank you, but you don't need to worry about that. I already have someone to do the investigation."
Xander is obviously disappointed that Scarlett refuses his help.
"But, Xander, I need your help to oversee this case. I mean, afraid someone will try to bribe the police officers and put my company at a disadvantage!" Scarlett continued her sentence, after seeing Xander's disappointed look.
He happily smiled that Scarlett had finally asked him for help. "Don't worry! I'll make sure this case is handled fairly." He immediately made a call.
After seeing Xander busy on the phone, Scarlett took her cell phone and sent a few short messages.
[ Scarlett: ] Seven, investigate a recent death of an individual case at Ocean Group's resorts.
Scarlett knew Seven had arrived on this island yesterday.
[ Scarlett: ] I want to know who is behind this.
[ Scarlett: ] If you need my help, let me know!
[ Seven: ] Roger that!!
After sending the message, Scarlett pondered while looking at the street outside. She felt strange. Every time she returned to this island, trouble always followed. There were always people who dared to annoy her.
ραпdα nᴏνa| сom It seemed she would have to erase all traces of herself related to this island, especially her connection with Ocean Group.
Scarlett was worried. Her enemy knew that her weakness was on this island—her family.
Although she might not have anything to do with the incident at their resort, Scarlett wanted this kind of thing to never happen because of her. Not now. Not in the future.
Meanwhile, Scarlett's other identities as RAS owners are still secure. She is confident no one will know about her connection to the RAS. Unless she says it to people she meets, like when she admitted that at Grandpa Riley's party. But that's just an oral statement. No one will ever find any proof she's related to RAS.
And now she is confused. Who attacked the Ocean Group!?
Was this Lauren's doing? No way, right!? The evil woman is dead.
Wood family? It couldn't be because they already got the punishment. And they also knew she was backed by the Riley Group. How dare they attack her now?
For the umpteenth time, Scarlett took a deep breath in silence.
Sigh!
Does her father also have other enemies that she doesn't know about?
Scarlett made a note in her mind that she would ask her father about this when they met.
Something suddenly crossed her mind just before she wanted to put Ocean group's matter aside.
'Greyson Buck! Did the damn family do it?' Scarlett clenched her fists, feeling angry.
If what Scarlett thought was right, she would exterminate them.
How dare that stupid pig mess up her family after what he did to Nicole!?
Scarlett immediately took her cell phone and sent another message to Seven.
[ Scarlett: ] Investigated Greyson Buck and his family.
She heard from the Ocean Group lawyer, David Irvin, that Greyson Buck had been jailed. This case has completed its investigative phase and is now rolling in court. Just waiting for the trial to start.
Scarlett's suspicions were extreme towards this family because only they had a grudge against her family.
"Baby..." Scarlett was stunned to hear Xander's voice near her ear.
She looked back and almost bumped his face. She froze while holding her breath. If she moved, their lips would touch.
After Scarlett saw Xander pulling his face away, she finally let out a long sigh.
"What were you thinking? You've been quiet since earlier. Everything okay?" Xander asked worriedly.
"Hmm, everything will be fine! However, I think there is an ulterior motive in this case." She looked at him with an expression that was difficult to describe in words.
She wanted to tell Xander what she was thinking but had no proof yet.
"Oh, so you don't think this case is just a case of food poisoning?" Xander was surprised to hear her doubts.
Scarlett chuckled inwardly. Apparently, Xander also has thoughts like herself.
"Of course! How could that staff dare to feed poisoned food to guests!? I think someone forced him to do that."
Scarlett took another deep breath to relieve her stuffy heart before continuing, "Xander, how corrupt are the police in this country?"
She had just returned to this country and had no idea how the police were there. Is it the same as the police in other parts of the world, corrupt!?
Since her return, when she needs something that involves the police, Xander's team will assist her. She wasn't directly involved with the police.
First, her father's assault case, and they have to fight with the Wood family. Then, in Nicole's rape case, they also had to battle with Buck's family, and the case ended well.
However, she had to intervene in this third case because the media also attacked her mother's company. And she will not allow it.
What she is worried about right now is the corrupt police.
"Well, honestly, it's the same with other countries. There are corrupt police in Astington. But you don't need to worry as long as I'm behind you. No one dares to touch you..." Xander's face turned serious when he said this.
"Thanks, Xander! That would really help me!" She said,
Scarlett couldn't wait to arrive at her home to open her laptop. She wanted to clean up the image of the Global Group on the internet.
The power of the netizens in this country can destroy the image of any individual or company. To send it to the bottom of the abyss. Netizen's finger is something she can't carelessly ignore.
"Baby," Xander took Scarlett's hand, "...we will go to the hotel first and then to your house. I want to make arrangements before we officially visit your father!"
Only now did Scarlett realize that their car was headed for the Beach Front Hotel, not her house.
Scarlett nodded at Xander. It didn't matter to her. At this moment, she just needed a place to open her laptop. And crush netizens! How dare they badmouth her mother's company!?
