"I had nothing to do with it, I swear!" The man searched frantically, trying to deceive Smith by putting on an act.But Smith knew better. He hadn't come this far without uncovering every detail that needed to be known. He was fully aware that all the information had come from this man. Smith also knew the man's background. The man in the Western hat could no longer fool him, no matter what he said. Smith wasn’t going to let him off the hook."You can't lie. I have the evidence." Smith threw the evidence in front of the man in the beret, who raised a chair as a shield to keep them at bay, signaling that he wouldn't hesitate to harm them if they came closer.As the evidence scattered in front of him, the man’s eyes darted over it in shock as he realized they had done a background check on him and gathered nearly all the information.He shook his head in panic, his gaze empty, feeling the situation was unfair. "No... no, it wasn’t me! I had nothing to do with it. Believe me!" he shouted

“This kind of problem is easily solved.” Richard smirked slightly, slipping one hand into his pocket. “There are plenty of people who can replace you.”The man named Hary furrowed his brows deeply, trying to process Richard’s words. Now, he finally understood that Richard was suggesting someone would take his place, making his lips stiffen instantly.Hary’s posture hunched forward as if trying to shield himself from the intimidating gaze Richard directed at him.He hadn’t expected Richard to think this way. His face turned pale, and he realized that Richard could do anything. This made him swallow hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing nervously.“No, that won’t work.” Smith shook his head, rubbing his chin with his thumb. “The people around him will definitely notice.”Smith believed that this plan wouldn’t be effective. After all, Hary had a wide network as a journalist who had covered numerous stories and interacted with many other reporters. His colleagues would certainly notice if someth

Two days have passed since the incident. Rachel, Richard's fiancé, feels curious and anxious because Richard has not contacted her at all during that time.Now, the woman used to be pensive on the edge of the bed, repeatedly looking into the phone screen to see if there was an incoming reply or a phone call, but in fact, what she expected didn't happen.His eyes were bent in sorrow, grasping the phone in his hand weakly without enthusiasm. "Why doesn't he want to contact me at all? What is he really doing that he doesn't even have time to just look at my message?"Rachel is restless because Richard is usually never like this. Even though he was busy, Richard always took the time to contact even if it was just a few messages and one phone call, because now he felt uneasy and questioned where Richard had gone.Rachel exhaled harshly. "I have to see him in person."He nodded his head, rounding up his determination. Rachel hurriedly changed her clothes, exited the house, and drove her car

"Hey there!" a man who was busy moving things headed towards Richard. "Hurry up and move these things." He signaled Richard by pointing his hand towards the sizable and heavy-looking wooden boxes.Richard nodded his head and hurried over to him. "Okay."Right now, Richard, with his appearance looking different from usual, was deliberately going undercover in that place where his enemy was hiding. He needed to find out about what they were planning up close.In addition, Richard also planned to observe their movements. This decision was a bit difficult to accept and quite dangerous, but for the record, there was no better place than where their enemies were.When he was far away, he always felt stalked by them, and he could not escape their attention. It was just like he was waiting for those people to target him again, which was unsettling."What exactly are the contents of these items? This work is getting more and more tiring by the day?" One of the workers there put down the items

"You're here?" Naomi, who had been wandering around searching for Richard, finally found him busy moving packages from a delivery truck.Richard quickly put the box down and tried to shield Naomi from the view of the other workers. "What's wrong? Why are you here, miss?" She shouldn't have been there, and Richard anxiously glanced around, worried that Naomi's overseers might see them together, which could expose their closeness.If anyone found out about their relationship, it could ruin Richard's plan to get close to Naomi or worse, create problems for him."I came looking for you." Like him, Naomi nervously scanned their surroundings, then quickly grabbed Richard's arm and led him away.Richard let himself be pulled along, though he feigned confusion. "Miss... miss? Where are you taking me?" he asked in a panicked tone.Naomi kept hold of his hand, glancing back briefly. "Stop talking. You'll be fine with me. I won't put your life at risk." She spoke with such seriousness that Richa
