Crises in Love novel Chapter 38

The two men were Jaylan and his brother Jerome. Jerome was deep in conversation with Jaylan, who stood arms folded, interjecting occasionally.

Without thinking, Catherine blurted out, "These two brothers are surely up to no good. They're as thick as thieves."

I was about to comment when another man hurriedly approached. I looked closer and was taken aback. "I know this man. He used to be a salesman in the company when I was there. His name is Daniel."

I pointed him out to Catherine. "This guy tried to play both sides and got kicked out of the company. How does he know Jaylan?"

"Nothing good, I bet. I'll get Logan to keep an eye on Jaylan, see what he's up to," Catherine said shrewdly. "Knowing the enemies well, you shall win a hundred battles!"

"Sounds good, but remember to be careful. Jerome is bad. He doesn't act decently." I warned Catherine. "So, I suspect he's the one who can connect with the black market."

Daniel approached Jaylan, giving him a subservient nod before handing him a document bag. Jaylan took it and flicked through the documents, nodding while Daniel hurriedly added something.

He then opened his car door, placed the document bag on the passenger seat, and said something to Jerome.

Jerome and Daniel waved goodbye to Jaylan and walked away together.

Jaylan promptly got into his car, apparently having been waiting for the documents.

Watching them leave, Catherine turned to me, complaining, "That was close! Why are we so unlucky, always bumping into them? I hope that scoundrel isn't heading home."

Honestly, that was my concern too.

I thought for a moment, then pulled out my phone and turned it off.

Grabbing Catherine's arm, I said, "Let's go."
