Zachary read the documents three times before quietly putting the papers in order and slipping themback into the file. He then handed the file to Julian and thanked him.
"It never occurred to me that they would use the Yates girl," Zachary callously remarked.
“Liberty brought it up to me because she thought it was strange. That got me thinking. It was strangeindeed. She never wanted Hank to see Sonny before, but now she visits with Hank and tries to befriendly with Sonny."
They had a sneaking suspicion that Mr. Newman and his wife were in on it. They also suspected that itmust be someone Zachary had offended. To everybody's surprise, Jessica was the pawn in this game.
Since the Browns were related by blood to Sonny, the family’s attempt to be nice to Sonny did not raiseany suspicion.
‘They're not trying to get even with you, Mr. York. It's your wife they are after, but you had hersurrounded by security. Your wife can fight too. They wouldn't try anything in broad daylight sinceyou’re a man of status and power. That was probably why they tried to get to your wife through hernephew.
"As far as I know, your wife practically raised her nephew. Your wife is close with him, so she'll be morethan willing to meet their demands to see them alone if her nephew ends up in their hands."novelbin
Now that Julian got the whole story, he had to say that these people were great at playing mind games.
‘They had tried to use your wife's relatives, but they forewent the idea probably because her relativeswere unreliable and couldn't produce results."
Serenity’s relatives were all talk and no action. They could do nothing in the face of powerful people.
The Hunts had tried to replace Serenity as Mrs. York with a plastic version, but that turned out to be abust. Serenity found out about their plan, and Zachary foiled it.
Harriet, who went under the knife, had her face altered to be exactly the same as another cousin. Thecousin's husband mistook Harriet for his wife, and a kerfuffle ensued. Harriet and that cousin had sinceturned on each other.
Now, Harriet had to go for another plastic surgery.
Anyway, the Hunts did not amount to anything.
They did more harm than good.
“I'll hand the information on these people to the police tomorrow. The authorities will handle the arrest.But these people are sly. I doubt they can be captured all at once. Just watch your backs, for now, Mr.York."
Julian did not let Zachary take the documents away because it was not safe. It was time to hand overthe case to the police as these people were once the henchmen of a crime lord. Their records were notsqueaky clean.
‘Thank you, Julian. We'll be careful."
Zachary thanked Julian.
Julian said with a smile, "Don't stress over it too much. I won't let anything happen to you. They mighttry again in the next few days. I'm guessing they would pick the upcoming holiday. People will be outand about during the festive holiday. The crowd will make it a perfect cover for them to strike and runaway.
"Just carry on with your plans. They might have eyes on you, but I've got people watching them too."
Julian's remark gave Zachary assurance.
He showed his appreciation toward Julian repeatedly.
"It's not like we just knew each other, Mr. York. Don’t mention it. You and Josh are best friends, soyou're my friend too."
Josh gleefully chimed in, "You should thank me, Zachary. I told my cousin to help you."
‘Thank you."
Josh grinned. "That's it? Can't you give me something to work on? How about an extra month off for mymartial leave?”
Zachary said, "Aren't two months enough? What? Are you going to quit your job just because you'regetting married?"
"It's just two months. Make it three. I'm happy to accept two and a half months too."
Zachary looked at him resignedly.
