Chapter 368 Fighting Back (1/2)

Early afternoon on the next day, in the fitness room of a private club

”Hiram, I have investigated the matter. Several of the bodies found in the scene had been blown into pieces during the explosion and couldn't be identified. Patrick Yan's father found on a body's arm a watch, which was exactly the same one as Patrick was wearing before. Therefore, he thought the body was Patrick and took it back.

However, we still can't confirm whether the body is Patrick or not,”

Chad said to Hiram, who was working out on the treadmill.

Slowing down, Hiram thought for a while before answering,”Unable to confirm means that he might still be alive. We didn't find any medical record of Patrick in the hospitals during our previous investigations. Therefore, it means that he might have known something about the accident beforehand.

He couldn't have made it out alive, unless he had had an escape plan.”

”Hiram, do you mean that Patrick might have known all of this in advance and therefore had decided to play along, so that everybody would think that he died in the explosion?! Chad said, trying to catch up with the speed of Hiram's vigorous thinking.

”Well, it looks like we can't rule out this possibility.”

Hiram said, as he stopped the treadmill and wiped the sweat off his forehead.

”But, Hiram, what could possibly be his purpose in doing this? Lots of men, whom he relied on to build his business empire during the past three years, were killed in that explosion. Even though he might have survived that explosion, whom could he depend on, if he is to revenge on Marcia afterwards?”

Chad asked with a look full of doubt.

There were so many questions in this accident. Since it was impossible that Patrick would come to Marcia for revenge with bare hands, he must have had someone powerful supporting him secretly. Definitely, this one couldn't have been any member of Mo Family. Who could this mysterious person be then?

”Relax! What will be, will be. Besides, send more guys to follow and protect Rachel, and report immediately to me about anything abnormal,” Hiram said, as he grabbed a bottle of water, when a sudden thought struck him like a lightning.

How was it possible that he hadn't thought of it sooner?! Patrick was very likely to come to Rachel, if he had survived that explosion.

”Okay, I know,” Chad nodded reassuringly to Hiram and got ready to leave. When Chad opened the door, Luke was heading to Hiram's office with the speed of light. The two men greeted each other,”Good day to you, Mr. Jian.”

”Good day. Where is Hiram?” Luke replied, holding a folder in his hands, as though it was a secret treasure he had just found out.

”He is inside, waiting for you. Please,
