Chapter 1223 Everything Is Fine
Wynter smiled and gestured to the door, yet her eyes betrayed no secrets.
Calvin couldn’t help feeling that he was tricked, but he lacked substantial evidence. Regardless, he decided to pay $imon a visit.
His superior had tasked him with warning Simon to stay silent on sensitive
matters.
After all, Simon had reneged on his words once. If he slipped up again, the police might cleverly take advantage of it. Calvin knew he had to be cautious.
Moments later, Calvin was led to the visitation room where Simon awaited. Upon meeting Simon, Calvin pondered how he could pry for information under
surveillance.
Much to his surprise, Simon appeared relaxed and composed, showing no signs of distress. Still, Calvin sought clear answers about Simon’s
predicament.
“How are you feeling, Mr. Carlson? Are you troubled with certain queries? In that case, you can leave them to me. You have the right to remain silent at present. Or perhaps, there are other clues you could share?”
Despite sounding supportive of Simon’s innocence, Calvin intended to fish for information. Unfortunately, his efforts would prove futile.
Unable to deny he was being interrogated, Simon merely shook his head. Everything is fine. I just want to know when I can leave.”
However, Calvin was left unsettled by Simon’s reassurance and nearly shot him a meaningful glance. What did Simon mean by “everything was fine“? Where were the details?
Understanding Calvin’s anxiousness, Simon tacitly added, “I’m deeply
saddened by the tragedy as well. However, we can only wait for the police to conduct their investigation, especially since the victim has visited our
nightclub.”
“I understand. Rest assured, you’ll be released promptly in 24 hours. I’ll be waiting outside. Please take care of yourself,” Calvin reassured, to which
Simon nodded in acknowledgment.
Judging from Simon’s nonchalant and composed demeanor, Calvin believed Simon wasn’t facing serious trouble.
If the authorities had discovered something significant, Simon would’ve been thoroughly interrogated, given his role as Club Solstice’s manager.
The fact that Simon appeared relaxed and unruffled suggested that the police. had yet to uncover anything significant.
Upon exiting
e visitation room, Calvin hurriedly walked to the front door to place a call. Being as cautious as he was, he simply uttered, “Please rest assured, Mr. Carlson is in good health.”
In truth, it was a code word he established with Kenton.
If everything remained under control as expected, Calvin would affirm Simon’s good health. But if the police had discovered something requiring the Wrays‘ -intervention, Calvin would express that Simon’s health was failing.
After hanging up the phone, Kenton flashed a confident smile. “I told you there’s nothing to worry about. The police will never find anything. Even if they suspect something, they won’t make any progress.”
He then turned to his secretary and instructed, “See if they’ve contacted the girl’s parents. Find a third party and settle this without involving the Wray family.
“Also, tell the parents discreetly that their daughter isn’t proper. I’m sure they’ll accept the money then. It’ll be bad for their reputation if they cause a scene. After all, no daughter will stoop so low, don’t you agree?”
The secretary, Adrian Meyer, smiled reassuringly. “You can see to it that the matter is resolved, Mr. Wray.
“Some people are excessively greedy, thinking they could rise to the top without paying the price. They should understand that nothing in life is free.”
