Chapter 1057 Who is the Culprit?
Since that was the case, there was no need for him to argue anymore!
“If you believe me, you should know that I would never harm Mike. I will investigate it thoroughly. Although I don’t know who did it right now, I have absolutely nothing to do with this matter,” Harrison said clearly, not intending to push the whole thing onto himself. After all, he was also a victim.
Jane shook her head; that wasn’t what she wanted to ask.
“Someone will naturally come to investigate Mike’s situation. What I want to ask is something else,” Jane locked eyes with Harrison.
“What is it?” Harrison asked.
“Did Beatrice take a package of drugs from you to drug me?” This was the key question Jane wanted to ask. She just wanted to know why so many people wanted to harm her.
Harrison was completely bewildered by this statement. “What are you saying? I made her do it to harm you?”
“Isn’t it? Beatrice obtained a package of drugs from your men and put those drugs in my coffee cup, almost making me drink it.”
Upon hearing this, Harrison looked completely perplexed and asked carefully, “Are you mistaken? What drugs? I’m not involved in that kind of business at all!”
Jane realized that what Harrison said was completely different from what Beatrice had told her, so one of them must be lying.
“Didn’t you join the gang? Engage in the drug business?” Jane asked.
“What are you talking about? Gang? I’m involved in the jewelry industry. After Mike scolded me that time, I stopped doing anything unreasonable. I know I was wrong in those matters, so I’ve been looking for an opportunity, but I never wanted to harm you all.”
Now Jane was even more confused and couldn’t understand.
“Are you sure what you’re saying is true?”
Harrison anxiously took out a report from his phone, which was the business license of his registered company and the projects they were operating, all clearly written.
“This is the industry I’m currently in, and I have distanced myself from the Pansy family. So this part of the business is something I’ve built on my own. Although Mike provided me with some funds behind the scenes, it was actually me who carried it all. So, all those things you mentioned about gangs and drugs, I really know nothing about them.”
Jane carefully looked at the address on the report, and it did resemble the suburban villa Beatrice had told her. It seemed that Harrison was telling the truth.
Harrison looked at Jane, who still seemed skeptical, and pulled her downstairs.
“I don’t care about your personal matters anymore. The most important thing for me now is to take care of Mike. I’ll avoid getting involved in other things if I can. And I know you all have been taking care of Mike sincerely, I’m aware of that.”
Harrison drove her to the same villa they had just been to.
When Jane got out of the car, she realized it was the same place she had visited earlier, and all the scenes inside remained unchanged. Harrison led Jane, pushed open the gate, and walked in, discovering a small studio inside the villa.
Everyone was working nervously. The villa had two floors in total, and after opening the door, there were indeed a lot of people inside. However, these people were engaged in designing jewelry and similar activities, without any illegal behavior.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Beatrice also said that you have a darkroom here.” Jane straightforwardly told Harrison everything Beatrice had said, wanting to see how they would negotiate this matter.
Harrison became anxious upon hearing this. “She has completely ruined my reputation. Where would there be a darkroom? It’s just an underground room where I store my precious jewelry. How did she know about all this?”
“I opened this small studio without relying on anyone. Except for Mike, no one else would know about it, and I even used my previous name,” Harrison said, fearing that Jane would doubt him. He led her to the so-called darkroom and pushed the door open. Inside, there were crystal cabinets arranged on both sides, displaying various jewelry designs they had created. Each piece had a date and the names of the designers written on them.
“You can look at these works and match them with the designers outside. These are all their hard work, yet to be released,” Harrison explained. He said all this to make Jane believe that he wouldn’t harm his own family members.
Jane started to believe Harrison’s words to some extent. But why did Beatrice do all this?
At that moment, Jane’s phone rang. It was Patrick calling, and she immediately answered.
“Please come quickly. Mike seems to be in critical condition.”
The phone was on speaker, and Harrison heard it too.
They hurriedly rushed out, running countless red lights along the way, until they arrived at the hospital.
Harrison quickly rushed into the intensive care unit and saw Patrick standing at the door with a grave expression.
He grabbed Patrick’s clothes and urgently asked, “What happened? Didn’t I tell you to take care of him? How did it turn out like this?”
Patrick shook his head helplessly. “After you left, Mike’s condition was stable for a while, but about an hour later, his condition suddenly worsened. The doctors rushed in immediately. Within 5 minutes, they issued a critical condition notice. They are still trying to save him, but the outcome doesn’t look good.”
Upon hearing this, Harrison turned around in anger and slapped Beatrice across the face. “What have we done to you that made you resort to such despicable means? You targeted Jane and now even Mike.”
As soon as she heard this, Beatrice knew that the game was up. She didn’t have much to say and just glared at Jane with malice in her eyes.
“Who is your superior? Who ordered you to do all these things? And how did you know about my studio when no one else did?” Harrison was filled with unanswered questions, and seeing Beatrice’s current state only made him more anxious.
“Everything I did was for all of you,” Beatrice said without a hint of remorse, showing no trace of guilt on her face.
Harrison had a hot temper and couldn’t tolerate such words from others. He slapped her again and demanded, “Tell us everything. How exactly have you been helping us?”
