<h4>Chapter 270: Chapter 270: The person was found, but they were dead.</h4>


    Three dayster, Jack Woods had gathered all the evidence concerning Lucas Hughes.


    He directly kidnapped Lucas Hughes and recorded everything.


    From the wedding night until now, Lucas Hughes confessed everything in detail.


    Yet Lucas Hughes was utterly shameless, and as soon as he returned, he began to weep in front of Chloe Simpson.


    "Chloe, Alexander Johnson’s men kidnapped me today and forced me to say a lot of things I didn’t want to say, and they also forced me to admit to many things I didn’t do."


    "They held a knife to my throat. I truly had no choice. So, Chloe, no matter what Nathan Johnson tells you, you must not believe him. Even if he lets you hear the recording, don’t believe him."


    Lucas Hughes came up with an excuse and washed his hands clean of any responsibility.


    "Mm, okay, I understand. Don’t worry, Lucas, I definitely won’t believe him."


    Chloe Simpson, after taking so much medication and being manipted by Lucas Hughes for so long, would naturally choose to believe him.


    So when Alexander Johnson came to Chloe Simpson with the evidence and recordings, Chloe justughed.


    "Alexander Johnson, do you take me for a fool? No, not just me; you think everyone is a fool. Who do you think you are, the almighty Crown Prince of Capital Circle, the future heir of the Johnson n Group."


    "What is it that you can’t do? These pieces of evidence could easily be fabricated out of thin air. In Kingston, there’s nothing you can’t achieve. If you n to frame Lucas, I’m telling you, it’s impossible!"


    "We’ve been together for a full five years. I know exactly what kind of person Lucas is more than anyone else. No matter what, I will never believe a word you say!"


    She flung the documents to the ground and stomped the recording device to pieces.


    "!"


    Alexander Johnson was taken aback; he genuinely didn’t expect Chloe Simpson to say such things.


    "Miss Simpson, do you have any sense at all? The Eldest Young Master framing Lucas Hughes? What benefit would he gain from it, huh? Is it that he simply can’t do without you?"


    "You also mentioned it, the Eldest Young Master is the Crown Prince of Capital Circle, the future heir of the Johnson n Group. What kind of woman can’t he have? Why would he need toe for you? Is there any other exnation besides love?"


    Jack Woods was instantly filled with fury and couldn’t help but roar from the side.


    "Heh, you’re his assistant, of course, you would side with him. But let me tell you, just because you say that doesn’t mean I’ll believe you. Lucas had already told me that Alexander Johnson is quite the freak."


    "This person just loves snatching other people’s women to y with. So, that’s why he did all this. Heh, didn’t expect it, did you? I’ve already seen through all your tricks. Don’t try to ruin my rtionship with Lucas, I’ll never doubt him."


    Chloe Simpson stated confidently, and without any hesitation, she turned and left.


    "Eldest Young Master, we’ve truly underestimated that bastard! Miss Simpson is nowpletely brainwashed by him. What do we do next?"


    Jack Woods truly didn’t expect Chloe Simpson to say such things.


    Alexander Johnson watched Chloe Simpson’s receding figure: "...First, we detox the medication!"


    "Okay." Jack Woods nodded helplessly.


    For now, that was all they could do.


    He took out his phone and made a call to inquire: "Have we found Professor Lake?"


    "He’s been found, but he’s already dead."


    This was the report from the other end of the phone.


    "What?"


    Jack Woods’ phone fell to the ground with a "ck."
