“I don’t know. From Clark’s tone, it seems like he really wants to come to our house to apologize,” Cedric said doubtfully, “I’ve never seen Clark treat me so politely before.”
Lillian frowned as she looked at Dayanara and asked, “Dayanara, what exactly is going on?”
Dayanara hesitated for a moment and said seriously, “Mom and Dad, do you still remember that the World King I designed had been stolen before?”
“It is Dylan who asked someone to do it. I still have the recording evidence about his action.”
“What?” Lillian said with a surprised expression, and then became extremely angry. “It’s Dylan, the vicious little brat again! Dylan played such a trick from behind! He wanted to kill you, Dayanara!”
“Where is the recording evidence? How did you find it?” Lillian asked with a puzzled expression, “I thought it was the upper echelons of the group who used their connections to settle this matter. I didn’t expect you found it yourself.”
“The recording evidence is here,” Dayanara took out a recording pen and slowly said, “It was Alberto who helped me find it. He also gave me the recording evidence.”
“Alberto?” Lillian frowned slightly, “How could a loser like him have the ability to do this?”
As she spoke, Lillian looked suspiciously at Alberto’s room door and shouted, “Alberto, come out!”
Inside the room, Alberto was meditating with his eyes closed. He slowly opened his eyes and walked out of the room.
“Alberto, let me ask you, was it you who found the World King designed by Dayanara and this recording pen?” Lillian asked doubtfully.
“I asked my friend to find it,” Alberto replied.
“What friend? What does he do?” Lillian questioned.
“Private detective,” Alberto said.
“Mom, Alberto did me a favor in this matter. He even paid 100, 000 yuan for the entrustment. Fortunately, his friend found it. Otherwise, I would be in big trouble,” Dayanara said.
“Humph!” Lillian snorted coldly, “Dayanara, don’t be cheated by him. How could he be so kind?”
“He was even willing to pay 100, 000 yuan,” Lillian said with a dissatisfied expression, “I think Alberto was guilty. Otherwise, how would he be willing to spend so much money for you?”
“Besides, where did he get so much money? It was because he went to the company with you and became an assistant director and got a big benefit,” Lillian said, “Dayanara, I didn’t say anything wrong before. Alberto is doing business outside and is still making money in the company. You must be on guard against him in the future.”
Alberto was silent. He sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette.
After Lillian taught Alberto a lesson, she started to play the recording pen.
The contents of the recording pen were about Dylan and Rat negotiating the theft. It included how Dylan cooperated in the company and the time and place he had arranged with the Rat. It was a criminal evidence.
After listening to the recording, Lillian and Cedric became extremely angry and somewhat afraid.
“Dylan is too hateful! He is deliberately planning to destroy our family!” Lillian said angrily.
“Clark’s family really resorts to every conceivable means,” Cedric said in fear, “If it weren’t that Alberto was lucky enough to find the jewelry, Dayanara would be in great trouble this time.”
“Right. But how did Clark know?” Lillian suddenly asked.
“Alberto sent a recording to Dylan’s house,” Dayanara said.
“What? Why didn’t you discuss such a big matter with us?” Lillian looked at Alberto with an extremely dissatisfied expression. “Who told you to make your own decision? You are a troublemaker. If Clark takes revenge, he will just take revenge on our family. You can stay out of this anyway, right?”
Dayanara said, “Mom, Alberto’s idea is to punish Dylan. In the past, Uncle Clark had set us up, so we should take revenge now. Otherwise, how would Uncle Clark come over to apologize now?”
“Humph!” Lillian snorted coldly. She had great prejudice against Alberto and sneered, “Would he be so kind? Dayanara, let me tell you, this man is very sinister. Will I not know what kind of scheme he has?”
“He wants to blackmail Dylan’s family in the name of us. Then, even if something happens, Dylan won’t retaliate against him.”
“Alberto, tell me, how much benefit did you get from Dylan’s family for this recording? How much money did you get?” Lillian questioned.
“I didn’t communicate with Dylan’s family,” Alberto said. “The recording is here. How to deal with it depends on Dayanara’s intentions.”
“Humph, you’re smart. You know you can’t handle it, so you just let us handle it,” Lillian said proudly, “This time, Clark is caught by us. We can give vent to our anger.”
“Lillian, don’t teach Alberto a lesson. He has contributed a lot this time,” Cedric said something for Alberto.
Lillian glanced at Alberto and said, “He has been a freeloader in our house for more than two years. He’s finally a little useful this time. However, if Dayanara hadn’t become the director and let him become the assistant director, would he have made enough money to do this?”
“So, this time, it’s still our daughter who has the ability. Alberto is just our daughter’s follower,” Lillian said arrogantly.
“Alright, let’s forget about it. Later, Clark will come over. What should we do?” Cedric said with a worried expression, “A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Clark is still powerful. We have to deal with them properly.”
Lillian frowned and fell into deep thought.
…
At this time, the doorbell rang.
“Hey, Cedric. It has been a long time since we last saw each other. Recently, how are you and others?” Clark walked through the door friendly with a smile and said hello to Cedric as if he was talking of daily trifles.
He also held two exquisite gift boxes in his hands, which seemed to contain precious jade items.
Dylan’s face was filled with resentment, and he followed behind unhappily.
“We are fine lately. Clark, sit down and drink tea.” Cedric brought a chair and handed Clark a cup of tea.
“Cedric, Dylan was really stupid this time. He was fooled by the dubious people outside. He stole the jewelry of the group and almost messed up Dayanara’s project. It was family misfortune to happen this kind of thing! I’m responsible. Cedric, I’m sorry for you!” Clark said sincerely.
“Humph. Dylan was not fooled by the people outside. He was the mastermind of this matter. He did it to deal with us!” Lillian said rudely, not giving Clark a good look.
“Cedric, Lillian, don’t think too much. You guys also watch Dylan grow up. How could he have such thoughts? I really didn’t expect this bastard to do such a mean thing behind my back!” Clark looked distressed and disgusted and coldly glared at Dylan, “You bastard. Come to apologize to your Uncle Cedric, Aunt Lillian, and Dayanara!”
Dylan blushed, his face full of unwillingness as he lowered his head and walked over.
“Uncle Cedric, Aunt Lillian, Dayanara, I’m sorry. I was possessed by ghosts this time. Please forgive me,” Dylan gritted his teeth and let out a low sound.
Looking at Clark and Dylan being so subservient, Dayanara and her parents were very happy. In the past, they had been secretly tricked countless times by Clark. This time, they could be regarded to be elated!
