Chapter 797 A Collection of Peculiar Jealousy (1/2)

Brian nodded and confidently promised, ”Terence, you have nothing to worry about. We just need to cooperate with their investigation. But let me reassure you, it wouldn't be easy for them to find out anything that they don't need to know.”

”Thank you, you've worked hard.”

Terence said while he leaned on the back of the chair.

Brian chuckled as a response. ”Anytime. You don't need to be so polite with me. Besides, I'll get my bonus by the end of the year!”

Terence glanced at him and smiled. ”You know so much about money and nothing but money. Did you only work with me because you liked my money?”

Brian laughed once again before saying, ”I wouldn't deny it. You're right. If I hadn't been interested in your identity, I wouldn't have given up studying abroad and followed you.”

Looking at his deep and bright eyes, Brian was stunned for a while and then faked a cough to cover his feelings. ”But then again, Terence, you'd better tell your father that someone must take responsibility for this.

If this escalated to something that we wouldn't be able to handle, I'm afraid that Rhys has to be responsible for it. You also have to be prepared.”

Terence's smile faded. Of course, he perfectly knew that. How could he not? When his familial responsibilities was on the verge of interfering with their business?

But Marcus was already in jail. If anything happened to Rhys, Terence was worried that Edmund wouldn't be able to take it.

”I know. Go ahead with your work. Call me if anything out of the ordinary happens,”

Terence thoughtfully said.

Brian nodded, took one more look at him before leaving the room.

When he passed by the living room, he saw Carla and Carol watching a movie.

Brian glanced at Carla, gently nodded, and went straight for the door.

Carla took a sip of the hot milk in front of her and looked at Brian who was leaving through the door. She then looked upstairs where Terence was, even though she couldn't really see him from where she was sitting.
