My Mute Bride

Chapter 345 All in This Together

“President Burton.” Frankie came to the balcony with the documents in his hands. “This is Westhill Golf Club’s business performance report for this quarter. The assessment has been made that it’s indeed better to resell this property than to redevelop it. What do you…” He talked on his own for a long time, only to realize that Justin wasn’t listening at all. “President Burton? What are you looking at?”

Following the direction in which the telescope in Justin’s hands was pointed, Frankie vaguely saw several figures walking in the distance on the lawn. The figures seemed to be those of a man and a woman followed by a few escorts. Who else could draw so much attention from President Burton other than Rachel? Surprised, Frankie said, “Why would we even run into her here?”

Justin’s expression was gloomy. “Did you find any information about Dillon Porter as I asked you to?”

Frankie was startled for a moment. Then, he replied with a troubled expression, “I did find some information, but they’re not very detailed.”

“Shoot.”

“Dillon Porter is an Astronian with Montenegro citizenship. The information shows that he runs a foreign trading company in Riverdale that specializes in import and export trade, but he rarely comes to Riverdale. Even if he does, he stays on board Golden Cruise. Oh, by the way, he’s on good terms with the two owners of the Jockey Club.”

Justin clenched his fists. “Get a few people to follow him.”

“Huh?” Frankie was startled. “President Burton, Dillon has a complicated background; even your uncle fawns on him respectfully. It’s better for you to have nothing to do with such a person.”

“Just do as I say,” came the man’s terse reply in a peremptory tone of voice.

Frankie could only button his lip.

At the thought of Dillon being related to the Jockey Club, Justin recalled someone whom he thought he could probably ask about Dillon’s origins. He dialed a number.

“It’s me.”

“I’d like to know about the Jockey Club. Are you free?”

Ryan’s voice came from the other end of the line. “I don’t think we’re that close. And besides, I think it’s better for me to keep my distance from you at this time.” Ryan was courting Jolly, and he was only too eager to let everyone in Riverdale know about it. However, Jolly was never shy of expressing her likes and dislikes, and she hated Justin so much that she almost had the words “I hate Justin Burton” written on her face. Ryan couldn’t suit her fancy, but he could easily distance himself from Justin.
