Chapter 970
“Don’t worry. Patricia and I are fine.
“You’ve just got married. Of course, you have to go and celebrate…” Jaydon said as he looked away.
At this moment, although he was sincerely wishing them well in his heart, his heart suddenly felt empty and a trace of bitterness appeared. He felt that the spiritual pillar that had been supporting him for many years had suddenly collapsed.
He needed to calm down and compose himself.
After showing off the marriage certificate, Bruce subconsciously asked, “By the way, didn’t you say that you had something to ask me? What’s the matter?”
“Uh… Forget it, it’s fine.” Jaydon smiled and swallowed back his words.
He originally wanted to ask what plans Bruce had for bidding on the certificate of authorization. He could provide some experience and help in running the gambling industry.
However, after thinking about it, he felt that there was no need.
Bruce was such a capable man and there were many elites working for him. Bruce would probably not be interested in Jaydon’s experience.
Bruce smiled faintly and did not continue asking. “Honey, let’s go back first.”
Joanna looked at Jaydon and said sincerely, “Jay, if you have anything to say, just say it. You don’t have to be so polite.”
“It’s really nothing.” Jaydon forced a gentle smile.
It was better for him to settle his own matters!
“Are you really fine?” Joanna asked worriedly.
“Don’t worry!”
Joanna pondered for a few seconds. “… Then we’ll go back first. Call us if anything happens.”
She knew Jaydon’s personality. The more she took the initiative to help him, the more he would resist.
“Okay.”
Joanna came to the bed again and smiled lovingly at Patricia. “Patricia, say goodbye to Joann.”
Patricia raised her small hand and waved it at Joanna.
Although Patricia was autistic, she somehow felt close to Joanna and was willing to
be close to her.
“Let’s go!”

After Bruce and Joanna left, Jaydon was still in a daze, feeling as if his soul had left his body.
Seeing this, Grace’s face tensed up. “Jaydon, are you still unable to let go of Joann?”
Jaydon came back to his senses and subconsciously replied, “No!”
“The way you looked at Joann just now was weird. Jaydon, I’m warning you. Joann and Mr. Everett are now officially married.
“You must not have any other thoughts, let alone ruin their marriage.”
“Grace, you’re thinking too much.” Jaydon’s eyes darkened. He was not in the mood to say too much.
Loving someone was not just about possessing them.
There was also another kind of feeling. It was not romantic love, but superior to love.
“Jaydon, where are you going?”
“I’m going to the washroom.”
Jaydon went straight into the bathroom and locked the door.
“Joann, you must be happy.
“Bruce, you must take good care of Joann.”
Jaydon took out his wallet and pulled out an inch-long ID photo from the wallet’s compartment.
This was a picture of Joanna when she was still in university.
It was the photo Joanna had posted in the student column. He had secretly taken it off and kept it for so many years.
Jaydon looked at the photo and his eyes suddenly turned red.
He wanted to tear the photo up. But after hesitating for a while, he couldn’t bear to tear it up. He stuffed the photo into the compartment of the wallet.
Then he came out of the washroom.
Grace’s expression was solemn. “Jaydon, Aunt Yasmine has been missing for a few days. I feel that Aunt Yasmine must have been killed.
“Who do you think did it?”
Jaydon didn’t say anything, but his frown deepened.
Yasmine must have very important evidence in her hands.
Now that she was missing, this must have something to do with Cassius.
Unfortunately, he had no way to prove it now.
“Grace, I’m going to Venturas again.”
Grace panicked when she heard that. “Jaydon, are you crazy? That’s Cassius’s territory now. You’re courting death if you go there.”

Jaydon’s eyes darkened, and a trace of ruthlessness appeared at the bottom of his eyes. “I have to go again. Otherwise, we’ll be too passive.
“I can’t let Cassius take all of Dad’s inheritance, let alone not find the truth about Dad’s death.”
“But I’m worried about you going alone.”
“It’s okay. I’ll be careful.
“No matter what, I must find out the cause of Dad’s death.”
Grace frowned. She wanted to say something but hesitated.
She also hoped to bring Cassius to justice, expose his scheme, and take back her father’s inheritance.
“Jaydon, then you must be careful. If…”
“Yes, I’ll be careful. Take good care of Patricia,” Jaydon said and looked at Patricia with a worried expression.
“Jaydon, you must come back safe and sound.”
Jaydon patted Grace’s head. “Don’t worry!”
Then, Jaydon changed his clothes and left the hospital.
Yasmine was now missing. He had to investigate what the situation was like before Yasmine disappeared.
If her missing really had something to do with Cassius, Jaydon would definitely find some clues.
In the past, Jaydon only suspected that Yasmine and Cassius had an improper relationship. However, they were still aunt and niece in name, so he forced himself not to think about this possibility.
Now that Jaydon thought about it, nothing was impossible.
She must have something on Cassius, which was why she was silenced.
On this side…
In the car.
