Chapter 1257
After the call, Zachary immediately contacted Josh and told him about Liberty’s suspicion.
Josh said, “I just received some news too, and was about to tell you when you called me.”
Zachary asked in a low voice, “What news? Is it rted to Sonny’s attempted kidnapping?”
“Yeah. My brother told me that he found out that Mrs. Newman had a gang leader as a godfather more
than twenty years ago. However, that leader got arrested and sentenced to death. Some of the leader’s
men were also convicted, but some disappeared from the face of the earth.
“I suspect they were taken in by Mrs. Newman. Those men under the leader back then were all
ruthless ouws. It was arge gang too. If Mrs. Newman took them in and made them into
bodyguards, their numbers could form argepany.
“That happened twenty years ago, so it’s difficult to find out their whereabouts. It’ll take some time to
get confirmation. Besides, those men are probably old now after twenty years, but they might have
inducted new blood.
“Mrs. Newman was the goddaughter of that gang leader, so the men working under him treated her like
he was her real daughter. If Mrs. Newman had the courage to take them in, they would swear loyalty to
her. They would follow her to hell and back.”
Zachary said in a low voice, “Our suspicions were mostly on Mr. and Mrs. Newman. After listening to
what you said, I’m ny percent sure the incident was nned by Mrs. Newman. Ms. Carrie is still in
detention, and Seren also sued her. She’ll be sentenced ording to the evidence submitted by Seren.
“Mrs. Newman has always doted on Ms. Carrie, who is the apple of her husband’s and her eyes. They
spoil her more than they spoil their son. She’s taking revenge on Seren for her daughter–it’s a pretty
obvious motive.”
Josh said, “I think so too, but you mentioned Hank’s mistress… We can’t rule her out. Maybe Mrs.
Newman teamed up with that homewrecker. She’s already Hank’s wife, so it’s convenient for her to
follow the Brown family and keep close to Sonny. She’ll also be able to reveal Sonny’s whereabouts.
“Zachary, I’ll have someone investigate that woman. What was her name again?”
“Jessica Yates.”
“Okay, I got it. I’ll get someone to dig into her right away.”
“Don’t let her find out, and don’t alert the enemy. We have to maintain the status quo on the surface so
the mastermind thinks we’re unable to discover the truth. If we treat this incident as an ident, maybe
they’ll let down their guard or try to carry out another n.”
Zachary thought that if there was evidence, he wouldy out a to lure the other party into a trap.
Then, he would use the to catch everyone. That was the best oue.
“You don’t have to worry when I’m handling it.”
Zacharyughed. “Yes, I never have to worry when it’s you. Congrattions on your sessful
proposal.”
“Thanks. You muste to my engagement party.”
Zachary smiled. “Of course. We’re basically brothers.”
“Jasmine and my wedding must be before yours. I asked my mom to choose a day before May Day so
I can finally hold my beautiful wife as soon as possible.”
It was already mid–March now.
May Day was only about a month from now.
“By the way, Jasmine and I are going on a honeymoon after the wedding. Give me two months‘ leave.”
“Isn’t a honeymoon usually only one month? You want to leave for two months?”
Zachary felt that two months was too long.
He would have a hard time without Josh in thepany.
Josh said righteously, “We’ll be newlyweds who can’t get enough of each other. I won’t be in the mood
to work. I’m afraid that my working will cost thepany losses, so I want a honeymoon period of two
months. If you think my holiday is too long, you can deduct it from my annual leave.”

Zachary replied reluctantly, “Fine, go on your two–month honeymoon. You can keep your annual leave
for the holidays. Over the years, you’ve made the greatest contribution to York Corporation. It’s only
natural that I grant you two months‘ leave since you’re getting married.”
Josh was not just his assistant in thepany but also helped him with many things in private.
