It was a question that everyone wanted to ask.
“Last night,” Cormac said as he put Amanda on the chair.
He sat next to Amanda and greeted Jayden and Kevin briefly, “I wasn’t home for a few days due to some issues.”
They didn’t ask more as they knew they couldn’t help much so not asking was wiser.
Jayden had full trust and confidence towards Cormac, he believed he took every step with careful thought and would not act impulsively.
“Let me know if you need anything from me.” Although Jayden had retired he still had a broad network.
Their relationship was not close due to Victoria and he had never come to him no matter what.
Now that the truth was revealed, he hoped their relationship would improve.
Cormac said yes.
“Let your father and I do your wedding preparation if you are busy,” Kevin said knowing he was busy while wedding preparation needed someone to make arrangements. Cormac was okay to let Kevin handle everything, he only had one request that the wedding needed to be grand.
He wanted to announce to the world that he was married to Loredana.
“Don’t worry,” Kevin continued, “Consider it done.”
Cormac went upstairs to change after breakfast while Loredana helped him with his necktie, “Don’t you think it’s a little too much?”
“What?” he looked at her.
“The wedding, those jewelry are too eye-catching…”
“It’s sent here?” he asked.
Loredana nodded.
“No jewelry matches you, to me you are the shiniest,” he said as he held her hand.
Loredana smiled. All women liked hearing sweet words from their partners, she was no different. “Since when did you become such a sweet talker? Did you do something wrong behind my back?” She said flirtatiously.
‘Is it wrong to be sweet to her?’
“Should I prove my love by beating you up three times a day then?”
Loredana stopped and put the tie on his neck, “Do it yourself.”
Cormac hugged her, “You beat me three times a day then.”
Loredana stared at him, “I’m no match to you, you are way stronger.”
“I’ll let you win,” Cormac whispered in her ears.
It made her itch and struggled slightly, “Stop the nonsense.”
“Do it for me then.”
Loredana said yes and continued making his necktie, “Be careful,” she couldn’t stop herself and reminded.
Even the tamest dog bite in desperation, not to mention humans. They might seek revenge regardless if they found out he was the mastermind behind it.
Cormac nodded.
Loredana sent him to the door after finish making his tie, “I’ll be waiting at home, come back early.”
Cormac smiled, “I don’t feel like going anymore.”
He wanted to stay home with her but he needed to solve this to provide a safe and stable home for them.
“Goodbye.”
Loredana watched as he left.
Although Boyce was not involved, he knew it was Cormac, so he called him yesterday to arrange for a meet-up today.
Their meeting was arranged at the office.
Boyce and Armand were already waiting when Cormac arrived.
Armand was excited, “Such delightful news, who would have guessed that Old Bailey did so much crime during his young age.”
He was ecstatic when he saw the news that Declan was detained by the police, he deserved it.
Boyce knocked him slightly with his elbow, “Quiet.”
Armand looked at him, “I didn’t say anything.”
“You may continue then.” Boyce sipped on his water.
He put down the glass and stood up when he saw Cormac approaching, but Cormac waved for him to remain seated.
“Why hadn’t you tell me anything? I could have helped,” Boyce said.
Armand continued, “Yes, you don’t trust us enough?”
Cormac ignored him.
His purpose of meeting up with Boyce today was to discuss the Baileys’ fall and Boyce’s opportunity since the Bailey had no time and energy going against Boyce now. Anyone who had been close or depended on the Bailey would try their best to stay the furthest they could now.
This case had a huge effect and was a big issue, so everyone tended not to get involved.
Boyce knew Cormac’s intention, “I’ll take care of this,” he said.
He had his networking after a long time in his field, no one dared to help before because the Bailey was powerful, but things were different now.
Boyce was reliable. Cormac wasn’t worried about him at all, “Call me if you need anything.”
Boyce replied, “Sure. Talk to you later.”
Then, Boyce stood up. At the same time, Boyce’s mobile phone rang in his pocket. He took out the phone and saw the call was from Officer Miller’s office. Boyce didn’t pick up right away. Instead, he looked at Cormac, “It’s Officer Miller. He might need me for something. I’ve got to go.”
Cormac nodded.
Armand stared at Boyce, who left, and then he looked at Cormac, “It’s done?”
