Chapter 903

Barbara led him upstairs, explaining, “We’ve sent out two squads of private guards to search for her. There’s been no word, so we don’t know if she’s dead or alive.”

Howard pondered for a moment. “Only living people hide. Dead bodies don’t lie.”

Barbara was not entirely convinced. “Corey sent people to look for Sheila. They cback saying there were many big dogs in the villages downstream. With the river running fast and her getting shot, it’s possible she’s already dead, and her body might have been eaten by the dogs roaming around.”

Howard fell silent for a while before continuing, “Whether she’s really dead or barely hanging on, as long as she doesn’t disrupt Nana’s life in the future, that’s enough for me. And she should never think about coming back to the Lawson family. Her nand memory will rest in the Memorial Garden. I only have one sister in this life.”

The Memorial Garden was where unclaimed deceased individuals were commemorated, with no relatives visiting to pay their respects, forever lonely.

Barbara nodded.

As they chatted, they reached the master bedroom.

Upon opening the door, Howard immediately spotted the man half–leaning against the

headboard.

Due to his frequent bouts of illness and pain, Corey’s complexion was not the best, looking somewhat weary and weak with his sickly pale skin.

Howard was stunned.

After not seeing Corey for stime, Howard almost failed to recognize him.

He could not believe the man before him was the former Captain Corey, who once commanded respect and admiration.

Sitting on the chair beside the bed, Howard was too shocked to speak for a while.

Corey covered his mouth, coughing a few times before taking the initiative to speak first.

His voice was hoarse as he said, “You’re here because of what happened at the Nicholls family’s return banquet, right?”

Howard hesitated, noticing that Corey’s eyes seemed much more lackluster.

Suppressing his rising feelings of melancholy, Howard nodded.

“We suspect Romello has harmed Phoebe and held her captive. Nana is trying to find a way to see her and confirm her condition. That’s why I’ve cto you.

“What do you needto do?” Corey reached for the water glass on the bedside table.

Seeing this, Howard quickly got up and handed him the water first.

“Phoebe’s fiance is from the Santos family and is a prominent figure in Svelton’s hospitality industry. Corey, do you have any ways to deal with the Santos family?”

Corey instantly understood. “You want Wayne to voluntarily call off the engagement?”

Howard nodded eagerly.

Corey continued, “In terms of the hospitality industry, I don’t hold any shares in companies under the Santos Group. While I do have significant control over their rival companies, both sides are evenly matched in business, making it difficult to use this against the Santos family.”

Having spoken too much at once, Corey’s throat becunbearably dry, and he erupted. into a fit of coughing.

After taking a sip of water to soothe his throat, he continued, “But when I was in charge of the National Affairs Bureau, I had access to information on all domestic matters. I’ll of misconduct later have someone look into whether the Santos Group has any records this afternoon. If we find any, we can use it to expand the issues surrounding the Santos. Group’s businesses, putting pressure on Wayne and forcing him to cto you to negotiate a settlement.”

Howard felt a heavy weight lift off his chest upon hearing this.

He stood up, hands on his hips, and bowed earnestly to Corey. “Thank you, Corey.”

Corey shrugged casually. “We’re family. No need to thank me.

Corey was always quick to act. Within minutes, he had sent a message to his former subordinates at the National Affairs Bureau, instructing them to investigate any issues with the Santos Group’s enterprises.
