“Grandpa, was I really wrong?”
“You actually know the answer in your heart, don’t you? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have done this research behind our backs, and you wouldn’t have been afraid that the secret of the laboratory would be exposed to everyone.” Retlin’s words made Jeffrey’s hope disappear.
“I’ll help you clean up the rest. During this period of time, you should stay in school and study.” He paused for a moment. “As for your research, as long as it’s within my sight, I won’t allow you to continue. When you understand what
I just told you, you can come to me and tell me your answer.”
Retlin put down the phone, but the expression on his face did not relax.
Jeffrey’s trouble this time wasn’t too big, but it wasn’t small either. If word got out, it wouldn’t be good for Shwell’s and Jeffrey’s reputations.
Fortunately, things had not progressed to the worst extent yet. The fire came at the right time. The only thing to worry about now was the Anderson family’s reaction.
Jeffrey had changed his name and came to the Alexandria College to study, so very few people knew his true identity, but this did not include the Anderson family.
Although Alexandria College wasn’t very eye-catching in the Anderson fa huge family, and they didn’t receive much attention from the Anderson it didn’t mean that they could break away from the Anderson family’s con
The astronomical museum that they had spent a lot of money on was on The people from the school, including the police, were even stopped outs was obvious that there was something fishy inside.
The Anderson family was not a family that could be bullied by anyone. HC could they not pursue the matter and not make a sound?
Just as Retlin had guessed, early in the morning, Principal Brown, who fe something was wrong, passed the news to Edwin.
When Edwin heard about the fire in the planetarium, he immediately tho of Caroline. He already knew that Caroline would go to the planetarium building for a lunch break during the past few days of school, so he immediately suspected that the planetarium was on fire because someon targeting Caroline.
“Where did the fire start?” This was the question he was most concerned When he heard that it was the astronomical observation room on the top he heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it wasn’t the astronomical audition room that Caroline had staying in during her lunch break. In that case, did this mean that the fire wasn’t targeted at Caroline?
However, for the sake of caution, Edwin did not give up on this possibility. Instead, he asked Oleg to carefully check the reason and find out who the first batch of people who entered the planetarium were.
Whether it was out of concern for Caroline, concern for the business development of Alexandria College, or to protect the Anderson family’s reputation, if someone dared to play tricks, it would not be easily covered up.
After all, they were in their own territory, and time was too tight. The people arranged by the Shwell family did not have time to hide their tracks. Therefore, Oleg quickly found out that the first people who stopped Principal Brown and the police outside the planetarium were a deputy director from the inspection system and members of his team.
At the same time, they also found out that there was only a student named Jeffrey in the astronomical observation room on the top floor. He often went in and out of the room, so the fire should have something to do with him.
Oleg quickly handed the investigation report to Edwin.
After seeing Jeffrey’s true identity, Edwin raised his eyebrows. “He’s actually from the Shwell family?” It was the grandson of the Shwell family who had never shown his face.
He immediately understood why Caroline was so eager to go to school these days, and why she would go to the planetarium for a lunch break. She couldn’t be trying to get in touch with the Shwell family’s grandson, right?
Edwin tapped his fingers rhythmically on the coffee cup and suddenly asked, “Did you find out what this young master did in the astronomical observation room?”
Considering the identity of this young master, Edwin realized that the cause of the fire should not be an accident. Otherwise, the Shwell family would not have taken the risk of being exposed.
It was likely that the observation room on the top floor contained something that could not be made public.
Oleg’s expression turned ugly. “They were too fast. By the time our people entered, the traces inside had already been cleaned up. If we want to find out, we will have to start from other aspects..”
