Chapter 482
Over at Nash’s side, Jupiter decided to summon Kai for interrogation
at the station.
Angelica expressed her concerns, “Isn’t Kai Walter Watson’s
grandson? Is it appropriate to just take him in like that?”
Jupiter replied indifferently, “Even the emperor is subject to the same laws as the common people. It doesn’t
matter that he’s Walter’s grandson. Even if he was the governor’s grandson, we’d still
interrogate him as necessary…”
Angelica fell silent.
It was not that she feared power.
It was because Walter was connected to several charity foundations and political consultative conferences.

especially since a few words from Walter to Chief Zink could ruin
their future.
Nash noticed Angelica’s apprehension and said with a smile, “Let’s
wait until the chip is fixed. Right now, it’s just our speculation. It’s
indeed not good to arrest someone without sufficient evidence.”
Jupiter corrected him, “It’s not an arrest, just a summoning.”
He then compromised, nodding. “Let’s wait for the recording to be restored, then. It’s not urgent.”
The phone on the desk rang.
Lauren excused herself with a smile. “Please excuse me. I need to
take this call.”
Jupiter picked up his briefcase from the sofa, stood up, and said, ” Well, we won’t bother you any longer. Once the
chip is fixed, you can let me know. I’ll have someone come over to make a copy.”
Nash stood up and shook hands with Jupiter. “Alright. Thank you for
your trouble.”
He and Hera accompanied Jupiter and Angelica to the elevator.
Smiling, Jupiter said, “No need to see us out. I’m not worthy of that.”
Hera was the company’s CEO.
Meanwhile, Nash’s status was even more daunting.
The two of them sending him off made him feel uneasy.
Nash laughed heartily. “Alright, we won’t be sending you any farther,
then.”
“Goodbye!”
Angelica waved to Hera, then closed the elevator doors.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the elevator descended, Angelica asked in a low voice, “Chief Holt, do you think it was Kai who did it?”
Jupiter shook his head. “Mr. Calcraft knows Kai better than we do. From his attitude just now, it seems unlikely he
suspects Kai… but all
the evidence currently points to him.”
Angelica mused, “You mean someone wants to frame Kai Watson?
Jupiter gave a meaningful smile. “The world of these wealthy people is truly chaotic!”
Angelica bit her lip, then asked hesitantly, “Should we tell him?”
Kai’s status was not ordinary. Although he was being sanctioned by Walter now, if something were to happen to Kai,
Walter would be
furious. It could potentially destabilize Jonford’s entire business
world.
Jupiter gave a wry smile. “The problem is we have no leads right now… Besides, Kai isn’t a fool. He must know
someone is framing him after Hera’s phone call.”
