Chapter 2246

“Let me ask you something. Did Luca come up with that idea?" Jack asked.

“Not entirely. I was the one who suggested looking for Dexter." Luke looked at Jack to see that he hadaged a lot because of all the worrying about political affairs and family feuds.

Although his heroic bearing was still apparent, Luke could feel that the person in front of him wasgetting on in years.

“Then, how sure are you of finding Dexter?" Jack asked again.

“It's hard to say because Dexter disappeared without a trace ever since that incident, I can have peoplelook for him right now, but I can't say how sure I am of finding him. However, I do need you to help meconfirm something." Luke folded his arms together.

Dexter was just one of the chess pieces that tripped Leia up. When the chess piece became useless,he never bothered batting an eye at him.

“What is it?" Jack asked.

“I want to know if there's any news of Dexter's passing in the records," said Luke as there must besomeone who would have called the police if something had happened to a homeless man.

If a report was made, the police would try their best to identify the other party based on the informationregistered in the system.

If someone with a past criminal record like Dexter died, his death would be recorded as long assomeone made a report.

Therefore, he needed Jack to find out for him.

It was not a difficult task, nor did it require using many resources. Hence, Jack agreed. “No problem,but you have to promise me one thing."

“Go ahead." Luke saw Jack's haggard face, so he reckoned that he did not manage to sleep well lastnight.

“If you manage to find Dexter but the blood types are not compatible, I want you to take this matter offyour hands," said Jack. He was a man of high moral standards as he used to be in the military. If Godtook this chance away from Leia after everything she had done, it was a sign for her to pay the priceshe deserved for all the terrible things she had done.

If she could not go to jail, then she should suffer from her illness. Even if she ended up losing her life,she was in no position to complain.

Luke looked at Jack's stern expression and nodded in agreement. “Alright."

In Traders Hotel.

Matysh was grim-faced as he looked at the photo in front of him.

Bill's people had sent him that photo. Luca had a designated chauffeur for traveling to and from worknow. That chauffeur did not seem easy to deal with.

After listening to what Bill's subordinate had to say, it was obvious that he was asking for more money.Otherwise, Matysh would have to wait even longer.

He was not going to pay more, nor was he willing to wait any longer...

Matysh's heart tickled as he looked at Luca in the photo. The more out of reach she was, the more hecraved her with every fiber of his being.

Mandy opened the door using the suite's spare card to see Matysh drinking on the sofa again. Shethen chuckled and walked over there seductively.

“Mr. Matysh, why are you drinking alone again.." she said while throwing her bag aside. She pressedher voluptuous body tightly against his.

Matysh pushed her away impatiently.

Although Mandy and Luca looked somewhat alike. The more he looked at her, the more he realizedthat her class was nowhere near Luca's.

After being pushed away by the man, Mandy inadvertently rolled her eyes. "Why are you treating meso coldly when you were the one who asked me to come over?"novelbin

"Shut up!" Matysh snapped at her.

Mandy realized that the man in front of her was in a bad mood, but she had already gotten used to hisshort temper after two days. No matter how well she served him, the man's mood did not seem to getany better. Hence, she got used to it.

She still stuck to him and paused for a moment when she saw the photo in Matysh's hands. "Thisperson."

Matysh glanced at her and noticed more differences after comparing her to the photo.

If he had found a woman who looked more like Luca, this Mandy girl would have been chased out bynow.

"This is the woman I've always wanted." Matysh took a big gulp of wine all of a sudden without hidingthe fact that he wanted Luca.

Mandy squinted her eyes, but she was not jealous.

Her relationship with Matysh was strictly business anyway as he just paid her for her body. She knewthat there was no chance she would become his girlfriend, so there was no such thing as jealousy.However, why did the woman in the photo look so similar to the woman she saw in Leia's ward thismorning?

"So, you wanted me to come to keep you company for the past three days because this woman lookslike me.." Mandy smirked.

"It's you who look like her." Matysh corrected her snappishly.

Mandy disregarded his words. "I've seen this woman before."

"You've seen her before? How could you have seen her before?" Matysh did not believe her as Lucawas on a whole different level than Mandy.

Plus, she was not the type of woman who would go out and have fun, so there was no way she wouldmix with someone like Mandy.

After seeing his disbelief, Mandy said, "I may have just seen her this morning when I was visiting myfriend in the hospital. She was also in my friend's ward, but I'm not sure what she was doing there."

At that time, she did not think that she was anyone important, so she did not ask Leia who she was.

Hospital?

Matysh recalled what Bill's subordinate had reported to him today. Luca went to the hospital thismorning before going back to T Corporation...

He hurriedly asked, "Did you really see her?"

"Yeah, but I didn't ask why she was in my friend's ward."

"Ask why she's in the hospital for me," said Matysh as he had been wondering why she went to thehospital after learning about it today.

His gut told him that this might be a breakthrough.

"Okay, I'll ask tomorrow." Mandy leaned on the man again. She thought that she could use this womanto make a quick buck from Matysh.

"Ask now." Matysh was so domineering that he could not even wait a day now that he had a new lead.

"There's no way I can ask now. My friend is in bad condition, so she rests very early. If we wait fortomorrow to ask her questions after she wakes up, we might get more information about that woman,"Mandy was disdainful as she tried to calm his restlessness.

She learned something new about him after seeing that he was all over the place because of a merewoman.

However, what did this have to do with her? All she needed was the money.

Although Matysh was not happy with it, Mandy had a point. He nodded and went along with her. Then,he handed her the other wine glass. "Drink with me."

"Fine, but let me fix my makeup first," said Mandy as she got up and walked into the bathroom.

After closing the door, she took out her phone to check her notifications.

There were quite a lot of messages from the rich kids who were pursuing her, yet the friend request shesent Johann had not been accepted.
