After hearing Anson''s words, I was startled and looked at As, but refrained from questioning him in front of Anson. As nonchntly said, "There''s no rush. I''m waiting for the right opportunity. I''m thinking of making a trip to Yare first."


    Anson''s eyes narrowed noticeably. He quickly scanned me, then calmly looked at As. "Are you suggesting that you need to check out the Av family first?" "The Av family has involved someone they shouldn''t have. I need to pay them a visit," As spoke with depth and meaning.


    I understood the implication behind As''s words, especially since the Av family was directly rted to me.


    And the person they shouldn''t have involved was my doppelganger.


    "Sounds good." Anson nodded and put down his spoon.


    As wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "Besides, I have some business to discuss with the Av family."


    Anson didn''t seem too interested and didn''t ask As anything more about it.


    I had finished eating a while ago, and anyway, the conversation between the two had made me lose my appetite.


    Anson didn''t press any further, and As didn''t borate. But from their expressions, it seemed like an unspoken understanding existed between them.


    Just then, my phone rang, and I took it out of my bag. It was Ivanna, which meant that she had probably arrived in Bourdamun.


    I gestured that I needed to take the call, then stepped out of the dining room.


    As soon as I answered, Ivanna''s voice came through.


    "Chlo, I''ve arrived! But I have some news. Someone has taken the me for the explosion!"


    "What does that mean?" I was surprised. "Who confessed?"


    "A man turned himself in," Ivanna informed me. "I just received the news and don''t know any details yet. Why don''t youe over? I''ll fill you in."


    "I''m going to the capital tomorrow. I''ll check it out when I get back," I said. "Take care, and don''t stay up toote."This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    "How many days will you be in the capital?" Ivanna asked.


    "I''ll be back as soon as I finish my business. This situation with Matthew should be resolved soon, and I don''t want to miss his trial," I told Ivanna. "Alright. Stay in touch," she said before hanging up.


    I clutched my phone, wondering who had confessed. What was going on?


    At that moment, As and Anson walked out of the dining room. When As saw me in a daze, he approached and asked softly, "What''s wrong?"


    "Something''s happened in Bourdamun. Someone has turned themselves in. Do you know anything about this?" I scrutinized him.


    He nodded, as I expected. "I do. Let''s talk about it when we get back," he said with a look that made me hesitate to ask more.


    After chatting with Anson for a while, I left the Huffman residence with As. We got in his car.


    Inside the car, As didn''t wait for me to ask any questions before he said, "The Bourdamun situation is clear. We need a statement to quell the situation right now. Someone has intervened, so we should y along and deal with this problem first."


    As was downying the situation, but I could tell we still had the upper hand.


    "Do we continue the investigation?" I asked stubbornly.


    "Of course


    le do. The results are


    already i and we''ll wait for


    Matthew''s trial." As held my ba "There''s no need to rush. There''ll be a satisfactory oue, I promise." en.swhovels


    Then he suddenly remembered my trip to the capital. "What time is your flight tomorrow?"


    "10:15 AM."


    "Okay, let''s head back earlier today. Don''t forget, Saturday is Ava''s parent-child day," He gently reminded me.


    "Oh!" I eximed. "If you hadn''t mentioned it, I would havepletely forgotten."


    I quickly thought about it and realized I had to return to Foswood either tomorrow night or the next morning to make it in time.


    "You need to keep your promises,


    right? You should be a good


    example to Ava. Make sure to fulfill what you promised," he said as he held my hand.


    "I will! Thanks for reminding me about it," I said sincerely.


    He smiled warmly, ruffling his hair.


    "You''re behind the project in the capital, aren''t you?" I asked, looking at him.


    He smiled. "It''s an avable project, so why shouldn''t I take it? Besides, Hartz Group has matured, and it''s time to put it to good use." "Speaking of Hartz Group, I want to ask your opinion on something."


    "Go on."


    "What do you think we should do about Tanum and Hartz Group?" I asked directly.


    "What do you mean? Tell me more," He looked at me, appearing to ask the question casually.
