Chapter 975 What kind of care
Anthony was silent.
He already knew what he wanted to ask.
He heard that Malcolm had already been to the Callahan family once before coming here, and he came
after him after finding out that he came to South Sea.
He knew that Malcolm had a clear goal in doing things, and if there was nothing urgent, he didn't have
to chase after him.
"What did I do to trouble you to come here yourself? What does the National Investigation Bureau's
case have to do with me? I haven't done anything illegal recently."
Malcolm just smiled lightly and thought he could continue to pretend.
"Whether it has anything to do with you or not, it doesn't matter what you say."
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing, I heard that there was a gun battle here yesterday."
Anthony was taken aback, and didn't expect the news to come so fast.
Thinking of Jaqueline who was shot and fell into the sea, he lowered his eyes and calmly helped
Malcolm fill up the tea.
"You're really well-informed, but I'm afraid you didn't come to me because of yesterday's shootout?"
Malcolm took a sip of the tea, taking his time.
Anthony waited until he finished drinking the tea, and then smiled in relief, "Psychologically speaking,
your actions just now are to test its authenticity. Have you understood?"
Malcolm chuckled. "You used to be the Director of Security Agency, the most proficient in scheming,
and the best at psychological tricks. Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."
After drinking a cup of tea, Malcolm continued, "I heard that you recently brought back a woman named
Jaqueline?"
Anthony's hands froze when he said it, and his face was a little pale.
"Yes, she saved me before. Both of her parents died, and there was only her grandma by her side.
Later, her grandma also passed away. In order to repay her kindness, I promised to take care of her."
"What kind of care?"
Malcolm asked.
Anthony lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time before asking, "Are there many types of care?"
"Certainly."
Malcolm sneered. "Relatives, lovers, and friends have completely different ways of care. By which one
do you treat with Jaqueline?"
He stopped talking.
Malcolm was upset. No wonder Mavis was not right and even Lyra was unhappy. What kind of thing did
this guy do!
The atmosphere was dull for a while before Anthony said, "Jaqueline is dead."
"Dead?"
Malcolm was surprised, "So suddenly?"
"You knew that there was a gun battle yesterday. Jaqueline blocked a shot for me and died. Her body
fell into the sea, and I am already sending people to salvage it."
Malcolm rubbed his forehead, feeling a little complicated. Observing Anthony's reaction, he didn't
speak.
It seemed that the degree of his sadness was not considerable. Was he too cruel, or did he not love
Jaqueline at all?
But if he didn't love her, why should he abandon Mavis because of Jaqueline?
Suspicion was deep in his heart, and Malcolm asked the key point directly, "Before this, did you know
Jaqueline's true identity?"
Anthony shook his head, "I always thought she was an ordinary fisherwoman from a fishing village.
She disappeared suddenly a while ago, but she said she was traveling in the mountains. It sounded
strange. Later, I caught her stealing the company's confidential documents so I kicked her out of the
company, and then there was an incident at the port..."
He recounted in detail what happened to Jaqueline recently. "... I didn't know her true identity until she
was dying."
Malcolm saw that he was not in a good mood. Obviously Jaqueline's death still had a certain impact on
his mood.
The clue here was completely connected, but the location of Sheldon was not easy to search.
That place was very chaotic, on the verge of the borders of two countries, and the terrain was
complicated. If the two sides really fought, it was not certain who will win.
Knowing that Anthony had indeed confessed the truth, he didn't intend to continue the pointless
interrogation, but got up to leave.
Before leaving, he asked, "Why haven't I seen Mavis recently? There's not much news about her?"
These words instantly made Anthony's blue eyes light up, and he quickly asked, "Has she contacted
you recently? Where is she?" This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Malcolm's eyes became very deep when he heard this, "She's your wife. Whom are you asking?"
Anthony sat down dejectedly.
Malcolm stared at him coldly. "I've contacted her. She's in good condition, but she didn't say where she
is. Lyra is very busy recently, and I don't have time to find Mavis. I advise you to get Mavis back before
Lyra finds out, or with all the shitty things you've done lately, Lyra will make it impossible for you to even
see Molly."
After saying that, Malcolm left directly.
Anthony was almost in a deadlock. Mavis was gone, and Jaqueline was dead.
It was as if everything had changed.
Zack entered the study with his mobile phone. "Mr. Callahan, your phone."
Anthony picked it up, but he heard Sheldon's voice.
"Anthony."
"It's you."
"I just called to ask you. Do you admit that the people in your family, including you, are banes? As long
as someone's involved in your family, you will be unlucky. Jaqueline is dead because of you. Why do
you feel at ease?"
Anthony said calmly, "She did die because of me, but it was your subordinate who really killed her. Now
you are accusing me, are you looking for the wrong person?"
"It's your fault! Since Jaqueline knew you, she is no longer the well-behaved girl she used to be! If she
didn't know you, how could she die to protect you! My Jaqueline won't come back!"
Anthony laughed when he heard it, and still remembered how Sheldon treated Jaqueline before she
died.
"You tie her up, burn her with cigarette butts, beat her and abuse her. It will be a matter of time before
she rebels against you. Now that she is dead, you put all the responsibility on me. The word shameless
is really vividly interpreted by you."
He couldn't see the expression on the other side on the phone, but Sheldon was already extremely
angry.
He really hurt Jaqueline, but it was too late to regret it now.
It was just that he didn't want to bear the sense of guilt, so he put all the responsibility on Anthony.
Hearing Anthony point out the fact, Sheldon was furious, but it was impossible for him to admit, "Don't
quibble! Jaqueline is my adoptive aughter, and the grace of nurturing is greater than anything. I can
treat her as I want, but you. You directly killed her! I will not let you go, and I will not let the whole
Callahan family go!"
There was hysteria on the other end of the phone.
Anthony lost his patience and simply hung up the phone.

Lyra was on the phone with Mavis when Malcolm returned.
Hearing Mavis's voice, he remained calm, pretending not to know anything, and listened carefully to
their conversation.
Lyra smiled, "No, Malcolm is back."
Mavis smiled cheerfully. "There are still so many cases from NIB recently. Why does Mr. White leave
early and return late?"
"No. It's a previous case that has just made progress recently."
Lyra still held back the truth about Jaqueline's identity.
The less people knew about tit, the better, especially Mavis who was already pregnant. She shouldn't
get angry, and emotional management was very important.
"Where are Spencer and Molly? Do they miss me?"
"These two little guys insisted on going to Chad's place, so I let them go today. Poor Chad, it is very
hard to take care of a naughty kid, but today he takes two together."
Mavis was amused and laughed.
"That's normal. Anyway, Chad is married. It won't be long before he will take on the role of father."
Lyra was taken aback when she heard this.
That was right. After such a long time, she hadn't heard any news from Chad and Keira, which was
unreasonable.
She decided to wait for Chad to come back later and ask him.
