Over the years, though he has lived in splendor on the surface, the pain in his heart is no less than that of you and your sibling.
From my own analysis, I believe that those words truly came from the heart.
He must be in real agony and definitely feels apologetic towards you and your sibling."
"Where did that come from?"
"Perhaps he feels he owes the two of you, after all, he knew there was something wrong with the car that year.
If he truly wasn’t involved in that matter, then he is also acutely aware that his negligence indirectly facilitated the perpetrator.
He views my interference with her company as entirely for the sake of the Townsend Family matters.
That’s why he so readily accepted this reality."
Faye Townsend frowned—If he truly wasn’t involved in that matter...
Thinking of the family portrait of the Townsend Family that he had always kept in his wallet, Faye Townsend suddenly turned her head to look at him.
Seeing her slightly surprised expression, Hunter Warren grasped her hand: "I think no matter what the outcome is, it’s better for you not to worry unnecessarily for now."
Faye Townsend leaned back in her chair, apparently left with no other choice for the moment.
Shortly after they arrived home, Faye Townsend received a call from Richard Townsend.
Walter Hansen had already been taken away for investigation by the police, and he sounded quite gratified but also somewhat dismayed.
Though it wasn’t evident, Faye Townsend seemed to be able to hear it.
She told Richard Townsend not to overthink and to just go back and rest.
Not comforting him was simply because she didn’t know what to say—her own heart was in turmoil, and she was in no mood to comfort someone else.
All the plans have been progressing according to the strategies designed by Hunter Warren.
With Owen Lennon’s help, Hunter Warren gradually took over the mess of Walter Hansen’s company.
Although it was challenging, there was really nothing in the business world that could thwart Hunter Warren.
He dispatched his capable assistant to the head office in Malaysia.
In addition to taking over the Hansen Group, he also aimed to investigate the group’s accounting.
Using the Hansen Group for leverage, proceeding in the usual way won’t do; one must strike first to find Winston Hansen’s vulnerability.
And indeed, such weaknesses were quickly found.
Walter Hansen’s company was not established long ago, only a few years, but he rose quickly.
It took him only three years to become a leading enterprise in Malaysia.
These days, playing by the rules in business doesn’t come that easily.
He has committed his fair share of smuggling and other illegal activities abroad; otherwise, he wouldn’t have accrued so much wealth so quickly.
Faye Townsend was somewhat surprised when she heard this news; she didn’t expect him to be so audacious.
It was noontime, and Faye Townsend had arranged to have lunch with Hunter Warren.
In the western restaurant, after listening to Hunter Warren’s account of Walter Hansen, she cut her steak and asked him, "So it seems, even if he’s not connected with my parents’ case, he won’t be able to get away with it easily this time, right?"
Hunter Warren smirked: "To me, this is what you call reaping what you sow.
There are many ways to make money, but he chose the wrong one.
If one chooses to commit a crime, then they should be prepared for the punishment."
"But what? I think you’re not supposed to be hesitating here. Don’t you think you have more important things to do?"
"Important things?" She pondered for a moment, unaware of any crucial matters she had to attend to.
"Your mind really oscillates between being sharp and being foolish.
In such a prime time, don’t you think you should go visit your ’friend’ in prison?"
"Friend? You mean..."
Hunter Warren’s lips curled into a mischievous smile: "Aren’t you eager to find out why Sebastian Sheldon recognized Walter Hansen back then, why he funded Walter Hansen?"
Seeing Hunter Warren’s devilish grin, Faye Townsend suddenly understood what he meant.
