"Mr. Chen, regarding the matter that you asked us to investigate, we have already found a few clues," Graham said. "We want to invite you back to our home to discuss it."
Fade thought of the disappearance of Yohannes's body and the bone fragments, and his heart skipped a beat. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's go!"
Hence, Fade left with Melanie and her family, escorted by Graham and Weldon.
In the villa, Cyril and the others stood there in a daze and watched them as they walked away. They were dumbfounded about what had happened and did not know what to say.
Simon recovered from his shock and muttered, "How could that be, that Fade, how..."
Bailey looked at Rosy with an envious expression. "Hale brought his daughter up well and she managed to snag herself a big shot. They have a bright future ahead of them."
When Qiana heard this, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, "We too had the chance, but now look at the fuss now, we're-"
Bache immediately frowned and said unhappily,
Whats the point of talking about this now? Now that things have turned out like this, we can only take care of ourselves."
Qiana said, "Take care of ourselves? That's easier said than done. Fade is now the most powerful figure in Westamor District. If others find out that our family doesn't have a good relationship with him, I'm afraid that many of our partners will cut ties with us even without Fade telling them to do so!"
Upon hearing these words, the expression on Bache's face changed, thinking of the terrible things that could happen.
"Now you're making all of these sarcastic remarks. Weren't you also on board with us when we suggested arranging Melanie to marry Yohannes?" Bache said.
"Bache, what are you trying to say? Are you blaming me for this?" Qiana asked unhappily.
As they were about to start quarreling with each other, Old Master Yu shouted, "Shut up!"
The crowd quietened down and they glanced over at Old Master Yu.
Old Master Yu remained silent for a moment and then gave a sigh. His usually stern face darkened and he said, "Stop arguing! This is all my fault. I have misjudged everything. The only reason we are in this situation is because of me."
"Dad, don't say that. We-" Bache persuaded.
Qiana also said hurriedly, "Dad, we still have a chance. We can—"
Old Master Yu shook his head and said, "We are no match for them. I'll hand over all of our family matters and businesses to you. I'm going back to my hometown."
After saying this, Old Master Yu reached for his walking cane and turned to leave.
This old man, who had always been stubborn and tough, seemed to have aged because of what had happened. He stumbled even though he was holding his walking cane as he walked away.
The Yu family members let out a long sigh. In the end, they could only silently follow Old Master Yu and they turned around to leave.
Meanwhile, Fade and the others arrived at the Yue Family's home. After helping Melanie and her family to settle down, Fade, Graham, and Weldon went into a conference room.
Instead of beating around the bush, Fade went straight to the point and asked about the disappearance of Yohannes's body. "Tell me, what did you manage to find?"
Graham took out a stack of documents and said, "We managed to gather whatever resources that were useful to the investigation and checked the surveillance data. We found out that the CCTV managed to capture what happened!"
Graham then clicked on a video and played it for Fade.
Fade looked at the video and saw that it was in the Yue family's backyard. It was not long after Fade made a scene at the wedding, and the Yue family was in turmoil. Yohannes's body was carried to the backyard, placed next to a pool, and was ready to be dealt with.
