    Chapter 407


    Seward’s demeanor was insistent and adamant. He stared at Han coldly.


    Even though he knew Horace was very likely the culprit, he still had to find the evidence.


    He was still hopeful when he instructed his men to look for the evidence. He thought, “Horace, you’d


    better made sure you leave no clues behind. Don’t let anyone catch you red-handed.”


    Horace was beaten up so badly on board the Zabel family’s ship. If the Zabel family failed to reim


    their honor, they would face aplete loss of face in the future.


    However, if Horace was caught red-handed, the family would be even more humiliated.


    They might even be sued by Reign.


    With Reign’s influence and the Labenz family’s power, the Zabel family’s reputation would be ruined if


    there was awsuit.


    “What if we find the evidence?” Han asked.


    “If you manage to find the evidence, 1 will be impartial and handle this case fairly,” Seward assured


    Han


    “All right. I trust you will honor your words. I’ll wait for the results of your findings, Han said.


    “Okay. If I find out that you have used Horace wrongly, don’t think you can get away with it,” Seward


    said coldly.


    Five minutester, Seward’s men returned with their findings.


    They found the love potion in Reign’s room.


    ording to the recording in the surveince camera, someone had entered Reign’s room, only to


    walk out again.


    They even found a video of the room where the director chased everyone out.


    The barman who ced the poison in Reign’s room was also caught. Seward’s men threw him on the


    ground in front of Horace and Seward.


    “Tell me the truth. What happened?” Seward asked.


    When Horace saw that the barman was about to speak, anger swept over him. He was about to


    threaten the barman, “Let me warn you. If you dare to tell lies, I will…”


    Han’s gaze turned cold. He flicked his finger again and stabbed a silver needle into Horace’s mite


    point.


    Horace was about to warn the barman when he realized that he could not speak.


    Seward’s expression turned grim. He cast a look at Han.


    As Seward did not see the silver needles hidden in Han’s hand, he was under the impression that


    Han had used telekinesis to hit Horace’s acupoint. He was now more fearful of Han.


    He looked at the barman and demanded. “Tell me the truth. What happened”


    The barman’s eyes were filled with fear. He looked at Seward before turning to look at Horace.


    Despite not being able to speak, Horace continued to re fiercely at the barman.


    The barman trembled in fear and replied, “Sir, L…”


    Ile stood there for a long time, but he could not say a word.


    “Think carefully before you speak. If someone uses you wrongly, rest assured I will protect you.


    However, if you dare to spout nonsense and frame an innocent person, I won’t let you off.” Seward


    issued a stern warning to the barman.


    A steely glint entered ITan’s eyes when he heard what Seward said.


    Seward was obviously trying to protect Horace by warning the barman to watch what he was going to


    say.


    Although Horace could not speak, his eyes lit up when he heard Seward’s warning to the barman. He


    red ferociously at


    thetter.


    The barman was so scared that his face turned pale. Trembling, he hurriedly said, “Sir, I have lost my


    senses and was confused.


    “I saw how beautiful Ms. Labenz was, and I harbored bad intentions toward her. Hence, I secretly


    ced poison in Ms. Labenz’s room. It’s all my fault. Please punish me, Sir.”


    After saying that, he fell on his knees and begged for mercy.


    “And you! You are the medical director of this ship. What have you done?” Seward asked coldly.


    The medical director was a perceptive man. He immediately understood what Seward meant and knelt


    on the floor. He


    12-17 E


    answered with a trembling voice, “Sir, this barman gave me arge sum of money and wanted me to


    create a chance for him. to get close to Ms. Labenz.


    “I was blinded by greed andmitted a crime. I also tried to push the me to Mr. Horace. It’s all my


    fault. I’m willing to ept any punishment.”


    After saying that, he kept bowing and confessing his crime.


    “Sir, please have mercy on me. I won’t dare to do it again.” The barman also bowed and begged for


    mercy.


    When Han heard this, his eyes suddenly turned cold.


    He thought, “How sneaky.


    These people are a cunning lot.”


    Seward was an expert in distorting the truth. With a few simple questions, he had turned the tables on


    Han and pushed the me onto these two men, absolving Horace from all wrongdoing.


    In this way, the Zabel family would not have to pay for what Horace did.


    In addition, Seward and Horace could now turn around and use Han of ndering the Zabel


    family.


    “You are worse than animals. How dare you do this to Ms. Labenz? Are you tired of living?”

    Seward looked furious. He kicked the two of them so hard that they were flung off the ground and


    vomited blood. Both of them were gasping for breath and could not speak at all.


    “Men, take them away. When the ship docks, send them to the authorities to be punished!” Seward


    shouted angrily.


    Hearing him, some of the Zabel family’s bodyguards immediately walked over and arrested the barman


    and the medical director. They tied both of them up before taking them away.


    Thereafter, Seward turned around and apologized to Han. “Mr. Jaber, I’m really sorry. It’s all my


    fault. I didn’t discipline them well and allowed them to hurt Ms. Labenz.


    “The Zabel family is sorry about Ms. Labenz’s poisoning.


    “Don’t worry, the Zabel family will definitely make them pay for their wrongdoing. They will be locked up


    in jail forever.”


    Han sneered and stared at Seward, waiting for him to continue.


    As expected, after Seward finished exining how he was going to deal with the two men, his tone


    suddenly changed. He said coldly, “Now that we’ve caught the culprit, let’s deal with another matter.


    “Mr. Jaber, those two men are the culprits. This has nothing to do with Horace, but you beat him up so


    badly.” After a moment of silence, Seward stared at Han coldly. “How are you going to exin this to


    the Zabel family?”


    Horace was overjoyed to hear what Seward said


    Earlier when Seward sent his men to look for the evidence, Horace panicked and thought he was


    doomed.


    He did not expect Seward to turn the tables on Han by distorting the truth.


    It was such a brilliant move.


    Horace had learned something in the process.


    Seward was indeed worthy of being called the top talent of the Zabel family.


    Han’s face was devoid of emotion, “What sort of exnation do you want?”


    Seward sneered. He pulled out a dagger and tossed it at Han. He said coldly, “The Zabel family will


    always take revenge


    on our enemies.


    “You should be punished the same way as how you beat up Horace.”


    It was a sharp and pointed dagger. It emitted a resounding “ding” as it stabbed into the floor in front of


    Han.


    Han startedughing. Without looking at the dagger, he said, “Your ability to find someone to take


    the me and distort the truth is top-notch. This is very impressive, indeed.”


    “Do you want to do it yourself, or do you want me to do it for you?” Seward’s stance was firm and


    insistent. He stared coldly at Han.
