Baron Lawrence thought the same. He narrowed his eagle-like eyes and stood expressionlessly in front of the table, his fingers rhythmically tapping on the surface. Each tap felt like it struck the heart of those around him, making them unable to help but hold their breath.
After a while, he spoke up, âI recall that we had an investigation on Jacob Clark before, and found something quite interesting?â
Scott Harris immediately responded, âYes. We discovered that in recent years, Jacob Clark has been keeping mistresses outside. One of them is a newly hired 19-year-old secretary in his company who is now pregnant and living in the suite of Lakeview Hotel in Linton City.â
âSince the Jordan familyâs incident, Juliet Jordan has been troubling him daily about family matters, and he hasnât gone home for a long time. He mostly rests in the suite at the Lakeview Hotel.â
âExcellent!â Baron Lawrenceâs tapping fingers paused, his handsome face carrying the cold indifference of a storm lurking overhead. âArrange for a reporter. Jacob Clark wants a scandal, right? Let him know what real shame and ruin are!â
He had been quite merciful for Ennaâs sake before, but Jacob Clark clearly didnât think so, even daring to plot behind his back.
This time, he would issue a warning using the same tactics, and if there were to be a next time, he wouldnât show any mercy, even considering Jacob being Ennaâs biological father!
âYes, Lord.â Scott Harris, as his right-hand man, understood how to proceed with just a word from Baron Lawrence. Before leaving, he asked, âLord, should we inform Ms. Clark about this matter?â
Baron Lawrence glared at him and growled in a low voice, âDo not tell her!â
Why should he inform Enna? Given her nature, even if she didnât say anything, she would be unhappy! If that damned woman was unhappy, he was afraid he wouldnât hesitate to kill Jacob Clark!
Scott Harris also considered this point, âYes, I understand. I will make the arrangements immediately.â
âWait.â
Just as he was about to leave, Baron Lawrence suddenly called out to him. Frowning, his eyes were as sharp as ever.
âBy the way, let the woman pretending to be dead in the hospital know the âgoodâ news.â
Jacob Clark liked sensational news, so he would arrange the most spectacular piece of news for him!
Baron Lawrenceâs tone was extremely cruel, and his handsome face was full of murderous intent, âIf Mrs. Clark wants to catch him in the act, be sure to give her a hand.â
Wasnât Mrs. Clark Juliet Jordan?
Scott Harris understood, âDonât worry, Lord.â
With that, he rushed out to make arrangements.
Baron Lawrence stifled the anger in his chest in the study before finally stepping out.
Enna had just made two cups of honey water and handed him one, curiously staring at him, âWhat did Mr. Harris want with you?â
âNothing much.â Baron Lawrence took the cup, took a sip, and the sweet taste of honey moistened his throat, his mood much calmer. He added, âItâs just company stuff.â
Enna was a bit surprised that he would explain and even did so twice; she had a vague feeling that Scott Harris did not seem so anxious about company matters, but she didnât dwell on it and shifted her attention, âBy the way, the baby is about to finish school soon. I have to pick him up, do you want to come along?â
âLetâs go together.â Baron Lawrence didnât feel at ease letting her go alone, so he put down the cup and was about to get the car keys when suddenly his phone rang. He picked it up, glanced at the caller ID, his face darkened, and quickly walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows before putting the phone to his ear, âHello.â
