    Chapter 202 Don’t Scare The Guards


    Baron’s tone was grave.

    Natalic, seeing him like that, couldn’t help but smile. “What are you doing? You’re not Witch Doctor; why so serious? If you don’t want me meeting him, fine–then you go find out the truth for me.”


    Baron opened his mouth without thinking. “Actually, I’m-”


    “Mr. Baron!”


    Before he could finish, a knock sounded at the door.


    It was one of his bodyguards.


    Baron’s eyes turned cold.


    Natalie lightly patted his arm and whispered, “Don’t always be so intimidating. Those guards are just doing their jobs. I’ll go wash my hands; you talk.”


    With that, she stood and walked out.


    Baron didn’t manage to stop her.


    When it came to his business, Natalie always seemed to know her boundaries; she never pushed to learn too much. That restraint made him oddly frustrated.


    The bodyguard saw Natalie leave and then caught Baron’s frosty stare, a chill crawling down the back of his neck.


    “Mr. Baron…”


    “You’d better have something urgent to say, or I’ll make sure you regret


    <i>it</i>.”


    Baron’s voice was sharp with anger, draining the color from the guard’s face.


    “Mr. Baron, our men in the countryside spotted members of the Summers family. Mr. Jordan went there personally–it might have something to do with Madam’s background.”


    At that, Baron’s eyes narrowed.


    “The Summers family is there <i>too</i>?”

    He hadn’t expected them to go to the countryside as well.

    What had Waylon uncovered? The baby–switch incident back then had looked like an ident, but with more and more clues surfacing, it didn’t seem like one anymore.


    Thinking about the recent Summers family mess, Baron quickly pieced it together.


    “They probably went because of Sharon. The DNA test showed she was indeed a Summers child; but she’s so vicious, she even dared poison her own mother. Jordan and Quincy must be having doubts. Notify the Stone family; let’s see what the Summers family does out there.”


    The guard immediately understood.


    “Yes, sir—I’ll make the arrangements.”


    At the same time, Hansel received word as well.


    “Mr. Jensen, it looks like Jordan went to the countryside.”


    Jensen sat staring at the stock market sinking lower and lower, his brow furrowed tight. When he heard Hansel’s words, he paused in surprise.


    “The countryside? Why are you telling me that? Unless he dragged Sharon there <i>too</i><i>?</i>”


    “No.”


    Hansel had been with Jensen for five years.


    Aside from the early days when the shareholders blocked his rise and Witch Doctor made things difficult, Hansel had never seen Jensen so overworked and on edge. Once Natalie had started helping him, Jensen had gradually secured his ce in thepany; for five years, Hansel hadn’t seen him this depleted.


    Especially after what happened at the hospital entrance–not hard to guess whose hand had left that ring p mark on his cheek.


    Not that Hansel pitied him.


    After everything Jensen had done to Natalie, even as an assistant, he could hardly stomach it- though it wasn’t his ce to say.


    Now, seeing Jensen rub his temples wearily, his sharp instincts dulled to Jordan’s sudden trip, Hansel finally spoke up.


    “Mr. Jensen, Ms. Sharon poisoned her own mother. Do you really think she’s the Summers‘

    biological daughter?”


    Jensen froze.

    “That shouldn’t be in doubt. Jordan and Quincy handled the DNA test themselves. If Sharon weren’t really their daughter, would they have made things so hard on Natalie for her sake?”


    Again, memories of all that Natalie had endured with the Summers family came rushing back.


    <i>If </i><i>only </i><i>Sharon </i>weren’t <i>my </i><i>savior</i><i>… </i>The thought struck Jensen suddenly.


    Hansel had no idea what he was thinking; he simplyid out his own reasoning. “We can’t get those records ourselves, but I did check. The doctor who handled Sharon’s DNA test with Jordan immigrated abroad the very next day after she returned to the Summers family. Isn’t that a little too convenient?<b>” </b>


    “What did you just say?”


    The fog in Jensen’s mind cleared slightly.


    He was a businessman; his instincts for suspicion were still sharp.


    “And wasn’t there news just a few days ago–that Dr. Johnson, the one treating Sharon, died in a car ident?” <fn0b0c> Th? link to the orig?n of this information r?sts ?n Find★Novel</fn0b0c>


    Jensen’s frown deepened.


    Hansel nodded.


    “Yes. Dr. Johnson had been overseeing Ms. Sharon‘ cancer treatment.”


    “Find out when Sharon’s cancer diagnosis started, how Johnson treated her, and whether there were any financial dealings between them. And before Johnson’s ident, did he have any contact with Sharon? I want to know everything.”
