Gabriel frowned and thought about it. “But a person convicted of growing poppy plants will not be put behind bars for many years, Mr. Faymon. Vivi nearly killed Mrs. Faymon. You won’t let that evil woman off easily, right?”

Curtis lifted his head and stared at him icily. “Are you telling me to teach that woman a lesson? If I’m going to do it myself, why did I hire you in the first place?”

“Oh…” Gabriel immediately understood what he was implying. He could not help but think of himself as an all-rounder. “Mr. Faymon, I might not be able to give birth to your child, but for everything else, you can count on me.”

Curtis’ face darkened when he heard what his assistant said.

Upon noticing that, Gabriel chuckled to conceal his embarrassment. “I was just kidding, Mr. Faymon.”

“Shut up and drive!” Curtis roared.

Gabriel instantly paid full attention to the road, as he did not dare to step on the man’s toes again.

Sitting in the back passenger seat, Curtis scrolled through his phone and seemed to have come across a piece of information.

Two minutes later, he asked Gabriel, “Where did the money Jessica gave to Vivi come from?”

“Oh, the money.” Gabriel investigated that this morning. He replied, “She has Mr. Lopez’s credit card with her, so she made an online transaction to Vivi’s account. But Mr. Faymon, Mrs. Faymon has sent Jessica out of the country.”

“Where did she send her to?” Curtis asked.

“Based on my investigation, her flight was bound for Yartran. But I don’t know if she’d transit to other places.”

Curtis lowered his eyes and went deep in thought.

He did not pay much attention to Wyatt and Jessica because he felt they should take care of their own business. Nonetheless, he knew Rayna made this arrangement to keep Wyatt away from Jessica.

Gabriel added, “Mr. Faymon, Mr. Lopez wanted me to inform him about Ms. Marsh if I have updates about her.”

“Don’t you have enough things to do? Do you want me to give you more assignments?” Curtis threatened him.

“No, no, no. I have enough assignments to work on!” Gabriel instantly knew what Curtis was implying. He responded with a bitter smile and said, “Please have mercy on me, Mr. Faymon. I won’t be able to spend time with my girlfriend if you give me additional work…”
