Chapter 494: Chapter 494 Servant’s Descendant_1
“Boss, we have a video!”
Aron Jackson brought his cell phone in front of Julius Reed.
This video was a hidden camera footage from inside the hotel.
Long before Arvid Woody and his entourage checked in, Aron Jackson had already sensed that something was off about these people.
Especially after the death of Arvid Woody’s three agents at the Vermilion Bird Pavilion, Aron Jackson directly arranged for his staff to install hidden cameras in the room where Arvid Woody was staying.
Monitoring their every move.
Now it would come in handy!
In the video, the conversations of several people were all clearly audible.
The conspiracy negotiated between Bran Cook and Nando Brandon was recorded word for word.
“I knew it! I said it was a conspiracy.”
Julius Reed sneered coldly.
Whenever something is abnormal, there must be demons at work.
“Boss! Should we threaten them? Or give them a warning? They even dared to target the big sister-in-law!”
Aron Jackson asked aloud.
“Or perhaps, kill them?”
“No need, now you call Arvid Woody and ask him what’s going on with this matter. Let’s see what the old fox has to say.”
Julius Reed pointed at his cell phone as he spoke.
“Alright!”
Aron Jackson nodded and dialed Arvid Woody’s number directly.
“Mr. Jackson, what can I do for you?”
After the events of the afternoon, Arvid Woody had already saved Aron Jackson’s cell phone number.
In Gonzalez City, he didn’t dare to provoke Mr. Jackson.
Especially after just skirting the gates of hell, he was even more cautious.
Even the tone of his speech had become much more respectful.
“I heard that you signed a contract with Quella Radcliffe? And for only three million?”
Aron Jackson asked in a cold voice, switching his phone to speaker mode so that Julius Reed could hear clearly.
“This… Mr. Jackson, how did you find out about that?”
Arvid Woody felt very curious; the matter had only happened half an hour ago, so how did Mr. Jackson suddenly start asking about it?
“Answer me, is there any trickery in this affair? Nando Brandon’s endorsement fee couldn’t possibly be so little, could it?”
Aron Jackson’s tone grew heavier once again.
“Mr. Jackson, it’s like this. Nando Brandon is in a good mood today and he has a favorable impression of Miss Radcliffe, so he took the endorsement. As for the fee, it was originally around ten million, but considering that we need to have long-term cooperation in Gonzalez City, we gave a discount. It was just right to build connections for Nando Brandon.”
Arvid Woody wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and continued to fabricate lies.
Although he didn’t know why Aron Jackson suddenly asked, since he had already promised Bran Cook, he could not change it.
If the matter were to be exposed, he’d lose three hundred million.
In fact, Arvid Woody was quite dissatisfied inside. As the vice-general manager, what was wrong with securing an endorsement deal for his own artist?
Forget about three million, even if it were for free, it was his pleasure!
Why did Aron Jackson have to meddle in everything?
Could it be that he wanted money again?
“Is that truly the reason? I just heard there were some shenanigans, so I wanted to ask. After all, Nando Brandon’s worth is definitely more than three million, right?”
Aron Jackson prodded again, trying to get Arvid Woody to admit to the affair.
“Mr. Jackson, you jest! We’re just looking for opportunities for cooperation in Gonzalez City. The three million is merely a token amount. In the long run, we need to look at the bigger picture, don’t we? Besides, Nando Brandon is indeed very interested in Miss Radcliffe. If he agrees to the price, it’s not my place to object.”
Arvid Woody swallowed and continued, “You know how it is these days. Once artists become big stars, we have no way to control them. They are the real bosses!”
He had already made up his mind, no matter what, he could not let this matter come to light.
After all, the endorsement event was scheduled for tomorrow morning. Once it was over, they’d head straight for the airport and leave Gonzalez City!
Leave Five-river Province.
By then, far from the mountains and far from the emperor, how capable could Aron Jackson be?
“Since that’s the case, I won’t bother you any further.”
After hanging up the phone, Aron Jackson looked at Julius Reed, “Boss, he’s not cooperating.”
“Then send him on his way.”
Julius Reed thought for a moment, then smiled, “Bran Cook’s move is quite ruthless! Pulling the rug out from under her, if things really go south, I’m afraid your sister-in-law really won’t be able to save face, and she won’t be able to mix in the business alliance anymore. In the end, the managerial position will still be his.”
“Boss, you’re still smiling! What do we do now, find Nando Brandon? Have my men catch him and beat him up?”
Aron Jackson asked with a bitter smile.
His boss was always calm and collected, no matter the situation.
“You check for me who’s the secret benefactor behind Nando Brandon! Where this person is now!”
Julius Reed pointed at Aron Jackson, instructing, “Make sure to investigate clearly! If you send someone to contact Nando Brandon now, it will definitely alert Bran Cook. This is his most crucial game, and Bran Cook cannot afford to lose!”
“Understood!”
Aron Jackson took out his phone and called his confidant again, “Investigate the information of the secret benefactor behind Nando Brandon as quickly as possible, the sooner the better!”
Since Julius Reed had woken up, he had swept through the Gonzalez City’s forces and set up a powerful information network.
These people were scattered throughout Gonzalez City, covering all aspects.
Even those with a paparazzi-like nature were plentiful.
As Julius Reed used to say, as long as you use them once, it’s worth it!
About ten minutes later, Aron Jackson’s phone rang.
“Your man, quite efficient!”
Julius Reed praised.
Aron Jackson was very capable and loyal.
During the three years of his amnesia, it was Aron Jackson who had covertly protected him.
Now that he had awakened, Aron Jackson had become his strongest assistant.
“Boss, I found out! The secret benefactor behind Nando Brandon is Beckett Carmichael, from the Capital! He’s currently in Gonzalez City, and it seems he came over with Nando Brandon, and he also seems to…”
As he spoke, Aron Jackson hesitated.
“Speak up, what’s with the hemming and hawing.”
Julius Reed grew curious, what could Aron Jackson be afraid to say?
Could it be that this Beckett Carmichael was someone of consequence?
“Boss, the reason Beckett Carmichael is supporting Nando Brandon is completely because of that kind of interest… This Nando Brandon, he’s his kept boy…”
After speaking, Aron Jackson felt a wave of disgust.
“Beckett Carmichael, that name sounds familiar to me.”
Julius Reed began to ponder, then suddenly slapped his hand, “The Carmichael family from the Capital, one of the four great families, with ties to our ancestors.”
He looked at Aron Jackson and asked with a smile, “Do you know the story of how the Carmichael family came into fortune?”
“It’s said that the Carmichael family had a Martial Artist who was the top scholar in martial exams during the Rosy Dynasty, they started doing business during the Republic era, and now possess a vast wealth.”
Aron Jackson had heard about the Carmichael family from the Capital.
It was something everyone knew about.
The Carmichael family was established by a Martial Artist and eventually became a wealthy and influential clan.
“Their ancestor, that Martial Artist, was a handyman I found on the Tempest Mountains while I was reflecting on life,” Julius Reed sighed heavily, “I didn’t expect the lad to be so cunning, to steal a bit of my martial arts when I wasn’t paying attention. Of course, I allowed it on purpose, to see how much he could learn. That was his fate!”
“Boss, that’s possible!”
Aron Jackson was inwardly prostrating in admiration for Julius Reed.
“Where is he?”
Julius Reed asked out loud.
“Vermilion Bird Hall, at the Vermilion Bird Pavilion.”
Aron Jackson replied.
“In your old haunt?”
Julius Reed was stunned for a moment, then spoke, “Let’s go, we shall meet the descendant of this servant of mine from the past!”
