Chapter 347 Choosing a Scapegoat

After hearing what Saul said, Jessica and Kevin exchanged glances. They quickly stopped in their tracks.

“Go on. Tell me what happened. Why did you two rush over here to see me?” Saul asked after sipping his coffee.

“I have bad news, Dad! Caspian and Willow are back.”

saul froze. He knew who Caspian was, of course.

All kinds of rumors about Caspian abounded in Southlake City, and no one knew which ones

were true.

Meanwhile, Willow was the CEO of Southlake Corporation, and if the Masseys wanted to become the top elite family in Southlake City, they could not afford to offend Willow.

Saul soon regained his composure and remarked coolly, “It’s not at all surprising that they’re back. Why are you so flustered?”

Lately, Caspian and Willow had been making numerous trips to other places.

Even though Saul did not know where they went, it was said that Caspian had been seen in places like Naporia and Easton. He had even gotten entangled with numerous other powerful figures.

Saul did not pay any attention to those rumors.

Though he did not know who Caspian truly was, he was certain Caspian was not as useless as he was said to be.

Noticing Saul’s indifference, Jessica hastily reported to Saul, “Dad! That’s not all! Caspian and Willow saw Diego beating someone up, and they took him away!”

“What did you say?”

Saul could not keep his cool any longer. He leaped to his feet at once.

All along, no one ever found out about the Massey family’s shady dealings.

Naturally, none of the family members would openly admit to being loan sharks or running casinos. These were not things to be proud of.
