Because You Are My Lady

Chapter 218

The doorbell rang, and the butler came to open the door. There, stood a tall man outside the door.

"Mr. Stanley Jones?"

The butler was surprised. "Why are you here?"

Walking straight into the house, Stanley asked, "Where is that geezer?"

Truthfully, the butler answered, "He is not at home. He's attending a meeting in another province."

Hearing that, Stanley nodded and stopped talking. He made a gesture to the people behind him, and Jimmy understood. With that, he immediately brought his men in.

"Stop!" The butler took a step forward and blocked the door. "What are you guys doing?"

Jimmy glanced at Stanley. Stanley just stood there which meant that he had tactically consent. Curling his mouth into a smile, Jimmy said, "Oscar, we've come here for a case that we need to handle."

"Officer Hudson, you're going to deal the case at the Jones Family home? Did your father, Jayden, teach you this?" The butler rebuked him angrily. "You can't just simply barge in!"

Still, Jimmy smiled and said playfully, "It's my duty, I have no choice but to do official business. Oscar, I hope you can do me a favor."

The housekeeper's face turned livid with rage. "Jimmy, get out of here with your men!"

"Sorry, I can't go."

"Do you want me to call your director?"

"Oscar, even if you call the governor, I won't leave." Jimmy took out his search warrant. "This is the search warrant. Oscar, do have a look. If there aren't any objections, we'll leave once we're done with the search."

Filled with rage, Oscar turned to look at Stanley, who was standing by the side. "What do you mean by this?"

Raising his eyebrows, Stanley said, "Jimmy's just doing official business. As commoners, we'd better not interfere with their work."

With a frown, Oscar said, "Aren't you afraid that your father will be angry if you do that?"

Smiling faintly, Stanley strode forward and pushed Oscar to the side. He kicked open the door and gestured over the people outside. "Come in!"

Jimmy immediately led his squad into the hall.

At that moment, Oscar turned around and left. Stanley's eyes were sharp as he coldly swept his gaze over, "Stop him."

Jimmy waved over two strong men. They had intended to subdue Oscar. Since Oscar had been to Hainan when he was young, his skills were out of the world. When he fought with the two special force police, he seriously injured one of them. Seeing that, Jimmy frowned, then rolled up his sleeves and went to deal with it personally.

Jimmy's move was swift and fierce. After all, Oscar was old. After a few moves, he quickly ran out of strength. Jimmy took out the handcuffs on his waist, and with a click, he took Oscar down.

The door slammed shut, and Stanley waved his hand. With his deep voice, "Bring him up."

On the second floor.

The old house of the Jones Family was a villa, with a lot of land and rooms. Jimmy placed Oscar in the living room on the second floor. Then, ordered his men to search in all the rooms and corners of the house.

Taking a look at the handcuffs on his wrists, Oscar could not hide his anger. "You brought so many men into the house. You have to at least give me an explanation!"

Opening the curtains, Stanley took a glance outside. "Oscar, is it because you're getting older and your memory has become useless? Let me remind you, your surname is Tillman, not Jones. Do I need to explain to you when I bring my men into the Jones Family house?"

As the last word fell, Stanley put down his hand and walked up to him. "Jimmy, take off the handcuffs."

Nodding, Jimmy stepped forward and took it off.

Rubbing his wrist, Oscar stood up from the chair. "Sir, what on earth do you want?"

With a faint smile on his face, Stanley answered, "You've been working for the Jones Family your entire life. You're a shrewd person. Are you sure that you don't know why I'm here?"

"Please enlighten me."

"Playing dumb with me?" Stanley sneered and raised his chin. Jimmy took out his phone from his pocket and threw it on the table. "Take a look. Oscar."

Looking at them, Oscar calmly picked up the phone, and clicked on it. A video appeared in front of him.

Then, he pressed play. The video was silent.

"This was where you went to, Oscar. Although it was nighttime, and you and your men have tried the best to avoid the cameras, but you overlooked the cameras in the corner." Jimmy said as he clicked on the screen. The video stopped, and a blurry figure appeared. "Oscar, if I'm not wrong, the person on the screen is you, right?"

Handing over the phone, Oscar said lightly, "The person in this video is not me." Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Taking back his phone, Jimmy frowned. "Oscar, we're here just because we want to find Rebecca. If you're not cooperating, it would not be fun."

"Hasn't Miss Lambert passed away seven years ago? What kind of crazy talk is that, officer Han?"

Swearing in a low voice, Jamie could not say any harsh words because of their relationship "Oscar, the current technology is very developed. Although the video is very blurred, if I want to make your face clear and enlarge it, it's not impossible. It's just that I'm too lazy to do so."

Looking indifferent, Oscar said, "Officer Hudson, if you want to do it, please do as you wish. I won't stop you."

Defeated, Jamie turned his head irritably.

According to his character, he would have made his move, if the other party wasn't an acquaintance. However, Oscar was not just someone else. He had spent his entire life working for the Jones Family. If he were to deal with this old man, Isai Jones would definitely go to the Han Family and ask for trouble.

Helpless, he turned to look at Stanley and gave him a look. "What should I do? The old man's lips are sealed. I can't get any information out of him."

Before Stanley could speak, there were footsteps on the stairs. It was Jimmy's men who were back. "Sir, the seven rooms up and down the house are empty, and there is no one in the garage."

To show that he understood, Jimmy nodded.

This whole time, Jimmy was standing still. Suddenly, he walked to the balcony, and Jimmy followed.

On the balcony.

Taking out his phone, Jimmy dialed a number. After ringing three times, the person on the other end answered, "You would actually take the initiative to call me."

"I've found traces of Rebecca." Stanley couldn't be bothered to waste time speaking nonsense. He said directly, "Oscar singlehandedly did this. He's so stubborn that we can't get a single word out of him."

It wasn't just Liam. Even Jimmy, who was standing by the side, was slightly shocked. He never thought that Stanley would take the initiative to call Liam.

The silence on the other end of the line lasted for a full minute, and then Liam's soft laughter could be heard. "So, why did you tell me about this?"

"I'm just informing you, whether you come or not, it's up to you to decide."

Finishing his explanation, Stanley kept his phone.

Clueless, Jimmy asked, "Why did you call him?"

"Oscar, this old man, he only listens to Isai. No matter what methods we use, he definitely will not tell us where Rebecca is. Plus, you're afraid of his identity, and you're scared to deal with him. As for me, I'm returning his favor, so I am not going rough on him."

Glancing at the living room, narrowing his long and narrow phoenix- like eyes, Stanley said, "Liam is different. He hates everyone in the Jones Family and doesn't have any feelings for Oscar. It's the

most appropriate thing for him to deal with this matter."
