Chapter 147 - Haili = Halia (2/2)

Why did Interpol have these files and what conspiracy was his mother's death entangled in?

Jackson had already read through the first file on the plane from France, so he grabbed 'Case File 2/25' and walked over to the balcony. With a sigh, he opened it up and started reading...

Today was going to be a long day...

...

Meanwhile, over in Hong Kong, Emerson's mother arrived at a secluded cafe. She had her hair tucked inside a baseball cap and sunglasses to hide her identity, and she specifically picked an inconspicuous seat in the back corner. She even dressed in simple clothes, removed all her jewelry and drove herself to the cafe so no one could recognize her. It seemed, she had done this many times before...

Not long after she sat down, a skinny man approached with an envelope and sat down opposite her.

”Hello, Mrs. Wu,” the man whispered as he sat down.

Without saying a word, Mother Wu immediately slid a small envelope with money to the man and the man exchanged it with the envelope in his hands.

”I investigated the name Haili Feng in Beijing, but I discovered that she went by a different name while she was there. She was known as Halia Feng and she was a nurse at one of the hospitals,” the man explained quietly.

”A nurse?” Mother Wu asked confusedly. From what she had heard, Halia studied something along the lines of business; how did she become a nurse? Above all, wasn't she working for her father?

”I also discovered that she worked at a bar!” the man added.

After hearing this, the middle-aged woman was even more confused. None of this information made sense. Was this private investigator a fraud?

But, just as she began to doubt the man, she decided to look at the doc.u.ments in the envelope and froze when she saw what was inside. Inside the envelope were screenshots from surveillance footage taken from a strip club!

The screenshots clearly showed a man and woman kissing passionately.

Mother Wu immediately realized the woman in the screenshot was Halia. Otherwise, why would the private investigator give this to her? But, when she pulled the screenshots closer to her face and looked at them in detail, her eyes opened wide in shock.

The person Halia was kissing, was none other than her stepson - Jackson Wu!
