Don't Fall For Me, CEO-Chapter 1056: Discovering the Truth

Thomas Grant was in a fog, yet Kyle Keaton’s gaze was more determined than ever before.

Yes, as long as he still loves July Quinn, as long as he doesn’t let go, no one can tear him and July Quinn apart!

Not even Roman Kidd can do it!

He was very grateful to Thomas Grant for enlightening him on this point.

So, tripling his year-end bonus wasn’t enough, Kyle Keaton added, "By the way, two apartments from the new development by Apex Corporation in the country will also be reserved for you to use when you get married!"

The new development by Apex Corporation is targeted at the entire high society of Esteria.

The market value of two apartments there definitely exceeds billions.

"Thank you, Lord Keaton, I will serve you with even more dedication in the future!"

Thomas Grant thanked him, dumbfounded, feeling like he must have saved The Galaxy to suddenly receive such a reward.

Only he didn’t know that he hadn’t saved The Galaxy, but had saved Kyle Keaton’s marriage...

Meanwhile, at Marsden Estate—

"All the evidence shows that the young master was taken away by Miss Quinn."

Joseph had invited a police officer who, after a day and night of investigation, provided Joseph with this conclusion.

Yes, the Miss Quinn he referred to is Laura Quinn.

Because the investigation revealed that on that day, there were no signs of Jennings or any female companion he might have brought leaving the estate by car.

During that time, the only car leaving the estate was driven by Laura Quinn.

Therefore, the only person who could have taken Jennings away was Laura Quinn.

And so far, Laura Quinn had never returned after leaving to buy a handmade cake from Miss Sagan.

Saying that Laura Quinn and Jennings’ disappearance are unrelated is very far-fetched.

So, Joseph immediately called Laura Quinn to question her.

"Laura, can you tell me why you took Jennings away?"

"I just felt that I’d been a guest of the Marsden Family for too long and thought you should also experience what it’s like having your own flesh and blood away from you for an extended period."

Laura Quinn did not hide the fact that she took Jennings away, but she also beautified the motive behind taking Jennings away, as she previously did in conversations with Joseph and Old Master Quinn.

Evidently, Joseph also understood this.

"What is Jennings doing now?"

Before determining Laura Quinn’s exact motive for taking Jennings, he had to confirm whether Jennings was safe.

"He’s doing well, enjoying something very delicious."

Laura Quinn said this and even sent Joseph a photo of Jennings.

In the photo, Jennings had changed into casual wear and was sitting at the dining table, facing a bowl of something black.

Just from Jennings’ expression, Joseph knew that the black stuff in the bowl was definitely not delicious as Laura Quinn described.

"What did you make him drink?"

"Something similar to what you fed my father before, but yours was poison, mine is the antidote. By comparison, I’ve been much kinder to Jennings, wouldn’t you say?"

"Laura, aren’t you worried that I won’t give your father the antidote if you treat Jennings this way?"

Joseph didn’t believe Laura Quinn could find an antidote.

Because the secret poison given to Old Master Quinn was something he discovered by chance during an experiment.

It could cause symptoms similar to epilepsy at times, but wouldn’t take a person’s life immediately, alleviated by special sedatives but not completely cleansing the toxin.

Yes, even though he was the creator of this poison, he hadn’t yet developed an antidote for it.

So he didn’t believe Laura Quinn could find an antidote herself.

If she could, she wouldn’t have hated him for twenty years while having to live in Marsden Estate with him, pretending as a loving engaged couple as per his demand.

Because of these experiences, Joseph was quite confident.

"Listen, Laura, by tomorrow morning I need to see you and an unharmed Jennings back at the estate, otherwise I won’t help with your father’s illness any longer."

Without giving Laura Quinn a chance to refuse, Joseph made his statement and then directly hung up the phone.
