In fact, if they want to eavesdrop on Declan’s conversation with his friends, he would not be so surprised. It was strange to let people eavesdrop on their own conversation.
All the people he received here were acquaintances. He would not do what the nightclubs did, setting up tricks in the suites to spy on what the guests do.
His club did not have such thing.
He pondered and asked, “I suppose it doesn’t matter what method you use as long as Declan hears you?”
Cormac said yes.
“Sure, leave it to me then.” Jaden had an idea.
Boyce asked, “What are you trying to do?”
“Didn’t you just want Declan to hear you? It’s not difficult. I’ll tell him that I heard you talking here…”
“Oh? Is that all right?” Boyce asked with a smile, “Should we exaggerate a bit to deceive him to come inside? For example, you tell him we’re badmouthing him behind his back.” That was exactly what Jaden was planning. He was not embarrassed when his plan was exposed and he smiled. “There’s nothing else we could do besides this, right?”
In fact, Boyce did not say no. They were incompatible with Declan in the first place after all. He just asked it for fun.
“Well, then, thank you for your help,” Boyce said.
Jaden pointed at the door. “Should I go now?”
Boyce looked at Cormac and asked, “Now?”
Cormac did not want to waste a lot of time there. He asked him to go right now. Jaden asked someone to send wine and fruit plates. He then went to the suite next door to coax Declan.
They sat down on the sofa. Cormac said something out of topic, “Did you see the news?”
Boyce was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted and asked, “Is it the news about you and Miss Flores in the mall?”
“Yes.” Cormac filled his glass with wine.
“Are you going to have a wedding and disclose Miss Flores’s identity?” Boyce still knew Cormac well, and that must be what he meant.
He expressed his opinion. “I think it’s necessary. Besides those close to you, the outsiders don’t know much about your private life. This incident has also attracted a lot of attention. There are many suspicions about Miss Flores’s identity and some bad comments. Miss Flores might not care, but the two children are getting older and it’s not so good to let them see it.”
Cormac smiled, but did not speak. Instead, he put a glass of wine in front of him. Boyce realized something and seemed to have a clue.
“Does that mean we’re about to attend your wedding ceremony?” Boyce picked up the glass of wine.
Cormac clinked a glass with him and seemed to have admitted. “Yeah, so what do you think?”
Boyce was about to drink and he was baffled by his question. “What?”
“Are you going to keep on staying single?” He was now successful in his career and had been busy about his work all day. He was not in a hurry for marriage.
“I haven’t met the right one.” Boyce was also very helpless. “Why don’t I go on a blind date? Aren’t there many blind date websites now? I’ll register an account and see if there’s a suitable one.”
Cormac looked up at him, speechless. Was that reliable?
“I’ll suggest you wait.” He really did not have high hopes against online dating.
Boyce will suffer a lot of losses if he meets those who cheat for money and sex again.
Boyce did not continue and he asked, “Have you fixed the wedding date? Where are you going to organize the wedding?”
Cormac initially wanted to find a place Loredana liked, but considering her health and the two children, it would be better to be in China.
“May 18.” The fortune-teller Jayden saw claimed that that day was suitable for marriage.
“Isn’t that happening soon?” Boyce said. It was already May.
At that time, there was a dark shadow looming at the door gap of the suite. Both of them had paid attention to the door when they talked. They clearly noticed someone, but they pretended they did not know. That was because they knew who was eavesdropping at the entrance.
Boyce started the topic first, and he deliberately shouted, “I didn’t expect that that John Kinney knows a lot about Declan.”
“What information did they get from him?” Cormac leaned back on the sofa and asked listlessly.
Declan, who was clinging to the door eavesdropping concentrated.
Boyce kept a straight face. He looked sneaky but he did not intend to lower his voice at all, as if he feared that the one outside the door would not hear him. “He said that there had been a murder in Declan’s nightclub and a young lady died. The news was almost spread out at that time, but his boss suppressed it. He’s also told us where the young lady’s hometown is. I’ve sent someone there, they would all be our witnesses afterwards.”
After that, he chuckled and said incredulously, “How could that guy be such a coward when he’s still considered someone important around Declan? He admitted everything when we beat him up. Now that he’s gone back and worked undercover for us, I wonder whether we could find out more proof about Declan violating the law.”000000
After listening to him, Declan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Charles had already planted a seed of doubt in his mind. He was even more distrustful of John after hearing Boyce’s words.
Moreover, the incident that Boyce mentioned actually happened two years ago. When a new girl was serving a powerful person, she didn’t know the rules and her performance didn’t satisfy the powerful person. Out of anger, Declan ordered his men to teach the girl a lesson. All of his men were rough men and didn’t know when to stop. In the end, they accidentally killed her.
As the incident had happened a long time ago, he almost forgot about the incident. Since he heard someone mentioning the incident again, he thought that he was betrayed by his own people. Declan turned to look at Jaden and said softly, “Thank you for your time today.”
After he had finished talking, he left the club angrily.
Jaden who had sat across him curled his lip and finally understood what had happened. It seemed that Boyce and Cormac had put on an act to deceive Declan.
Actually, they didn’t really deceive Declan. John did confess some things regarding Declan. Since Declan didn’t favor him, he didn’t know much about the confidential matters. It was Boyce who had found out about the incident. Boyce purposely said that John had confessed in order to make Declan think that John had betrayed him first.
According to the results of Boyce’s investigation, John was involved in the death of the girl, so he didn’t mention it.
All of the things that John had confessed were trivial and didn’t involve his own wrongdoings. Although he didn’t have strength of character, he was very aware that he should keep mum about the things that would be unfavorable for him.
After Declan left the club, he ordered his men to bring John to the villa.
When he angrily returned to the villa, John was already brought to the villa.
Since he was suddenly brought to the villa, John was quite uneasy and said carefully, “Mr. Bailey…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the corners of Declan’s mouth quirked up grimly. Declan didn’t say anything and kicked John. John fell to the ground. Since he was already badly injured, he couldn’t get up at once. He clutched his stomach and convulsed with pain.
“Didn’t you say that you were not interrogated?” Declan crouched down and clasped his jaw, “You dared to betray me?”
John widened his eyes. ‘Hasn’t Declan already believed in me? Why does Declan suddenly know about this?’
“You should never believe that crippled person’s words…”
Wham!
John was slapped. Declan was furious, “How would it be false when I heard it with my own ears? I knew it. How was it possible that they didn’t interrogate you and even sent you back when you were in their hands? It turned out that you not only betrayed me but also agreed to spy on me for them so that you could investigate me. John, I treated you well. I never thought that you would dare to do this to me!” Declan was infuriated. He did everything possible to save John, but John betrayed him. He found it harder to accept this than to accept the fact that his girlfriend had been cheating on him. He wished that he could immediately strangle John to death so that he could get back at John!
John was puzzled. He had said some things about Declan, but the things he said weren’t significant enough for them to take action against Declan. ‘When did I agree to become their spy?’ “There is definitely a misunderstanding…”
