“Right, the Wagners agreed with us easily, but you haven’t been able to convince the Zekes. Why do you think that is?”
Gareth should obviously be furious about his beloved woman being forced to death by Silas, but he was doing nothing and chose to bear it. None of this made sense.
I also found this confusing and asked Tyler to send someone to look into it. We had not gotten any results yet, though.
The moment I was thinking this, Tyler called.
"Ty."
"You asked me to look into Gareth Zeke the last time. For the most part, his life revolved around the company and his family. He's also usually alone. We didn't find anything else."
"He lives only between two points. I'll pay a visit to his house, then."
There might be some clues to be discovered.
I was also ready to be open and honest this time.
Come weekend, I brought along some gifts with me when I went to Gareth's home. Although he earned a lot, his residence was quite simple. It was just a simply decorated two-story.
"Could I trouble you to inform the host that Wanda Lane from Green Orange is here to visit?"
"Sure."
I waited outside the door for a bit before the housekeeper came back. "Please come in, Miss Lane."
The housekeeper led me into the living room. It was huge but did not contain many things and looked barren.
Gareth was sitting on the sofa, reading a magazine. I walked up to him. "A good weekend to you, President Zeke. You look quite leisurely."
He did not even look up at me and just replied breezily, "You, even more so, seeing as you have the time to pay me a visit, President Lane."
I pursed my lower lip and handed everything to the housekeeper before taking a seat to one side. "Oh, what are you saying, President Zeke? My visit is actually plenty sincere."
