"That can't be it, right?" Joe opened his mouth in surprise. "I’d rather believe that it was done by Robert. But it’s impossible to be Dominic. After all, Dominic was Laura's husband and they used to really love each other."
"Nothing is impossible. You know clearly who Dominic is. From a normal husband's perspective, what would be his first reaction when he finds out his wife had an accident?" Henry looked at him.
Joe answered directly without thinking, "Call the police and find the murderer of course."
"That's right, but Dominic didn't do anything. Instead, he immediately announced Laura's death. This is the biggest doubt,” Henry said while squinting his eyes.
Joe gasped, "If that's really the case, Dominic is too scary."
"So in this case, even if Dominic didn't personally participate in it, he's definitely involved. Get in contact with a well-known detective agency to find out the truth about Laura's car accident," Henry ordered.
Joe scratched his head distressingly. "But Mr. Lancaster, this incident happened more than 20 years ago. Science and technology were not advanced at that time, let alone the location of the incident. There are not many places in the country that are monitored, so it won’t be easy to investigate."
"You have to investigate it even if it’s hard," Henry said firmly.
Joe sighed and smiled bitterly, "Got it."
"Besides," Henry said again.
Joe’s body stiffened. "Mr.Lancaster, is there anything else?"
"Go to the funeral parlor. Take Laura's ashes out, buy a tomb, and bury it," Henry commanded while looking a t his watch.
Joe breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, I'll get that done as soon as possible.”
He thought there was another challenging task.
"Well, that's good. I'll take my leave now." Henry walked out of the basement.
He should pick Yvonne up from the hotel.
Yvonne didn't expect Henry to pick her up so soon. It was unexpected and pleasantly surprising.
"You're done with your work?" She opened the door and got into the car.
Henry leaned forward to wear a seat belt for her. "Yes, it’s done. How about you over here?"
"It's almost done. The rest is just to supervise," Yvonne said with a bright smile while waving her hand.
Henry raised his eyebrows slightly. "You seem to be very happy about setting up the venue?"
"How did you find out?" Yvonne was slightly surprised.
Henry started the car. "Of course I can tell. It's all written on your face."
"Uh..." Yvonne touched the tip of her nose embarrassedly. "I'm really happy. After all, this is the first task that you and Grandpa gave to me. I no longer feel like a pin-up, but finally useful."
"Oh, really? Then you should make the extra effort and don't let Grandpa down." A faint smile appeared in Henry's eyes.
It turned out that she had always felt inferior for not being able to help the Lancaster family.
What a silly woman!
"Well, don't worry. I won't let Grandpa down," Yvonne pursed her lips and replied firmly.
Henry took a glance at her from the corner of his eye." I'll send you a list of guests when we’re back. You should understand their preferences and taboos based on the list. Don’t make mistakes when you deal with them."
"Deal with?" Yvonne was taken aback and then pointed to herself in a panic. "Must I get to know all the VIPs?" "Of course. What were you thinking? The Lancaster family is the organizer of this alliance. You’re the lady of Lancaster family so you must attend,” Henry answered calmly.
Yvonne was anxious. "But I don't know how to deal with them at all."
"Then you'll have to learn. Families that do not have the same background as the Lancasters will come to you themselves, and you can do whatever you want. While for those with a similar family background as Lancasters, you can talk to them based on their preferences,” Henry taught her.
Yvonne nodded while listening. "Which family is better than the Lancaster family?"
"None at the moment," Henry answered shortly.
Yvonne gasped slightly after that, "That's good."
"But..." Henry suddenly paused.
The corner of Yvonne's eye twitched and she was anxious. "But what?"
Henry's expression became serious. "This time, there will be a new family from overseas coming to this alliance. The Smith family's power is almost the same as the Lancaster family. You need to pay attention to this.”
