Chapter 681: Edwin, the Third Son of the Pace Family

Edwin did not respond immediately.

"Before we determine the truth of the matter, let's not jump to conclusions, Boris. What do the doctors say now?"

Boris pursed his lips.

"The doctors say it depends on how he responds to the treatment. I don't know when Dad will wake up. Ah, things at home are now a mess. I don't know what to do."

"You've always managed our household affairs. I'll stay at the hospital; you go back and handle things at home. Keep Dad's condition under wraps. Don't let the word get out to avoid panic at the company and with the X Bureau. Also, have a few more people guard the hospital. I'm worried that someone else might try to harm Dad."

Edwin arranged everything methodically, as if he were the one in charge.

Boris didn't say much but did as Edwin instructed.

Christopher couldn't help but complain to Linden, "Compared to him, Boris is really useless."

Linden stealthily glanced at him.

"Why do you talk so much?"

Christopher choked on his words, realizing that no matter how long they worked together, he and Linden just didn't mesh well!

After Boris left, Edwin approached to greet them.

"Chief Linden and Christopher, right? I'm Edwin Pace."

"Mr. Pace, I've long admired your name," Linden replied, shaking Edwin's hand.

"Regarding Leo's case, the X Bureau will investigate thoroughly and not shield anyone. Please rest assured, Mr. Pace."

Edwin pushed his glasses up, a cold smile playing on his lips.

"Chief Linden, I suggest not focusing solely on Jared. Although he's the prime suspect, he has no reason to harm my father. I've heard of him before; my father praised him. There might be another reason for this incident. If you need my assistance, feel free to ask."

Hearing this, Linden finally showed some relief.

At last, there was someone sensible to talk to.
