Chapter 458 Joseph Cannot Be Bailed Out

James didn’t bat an eye when he learned that Fanny had steered clear of trouble. After catching sight of Fanny, Scarlet made a point to ensure everything was alright with him. Fanny had come back and mentioned that school was out for the day.

“Oh, and hey, your sister went to bail someone out this morning. The guy noticed James” distraction and gestured to the papers in his hand. “I did a little digging for you. Take a look.”

James kept skimming through and stumbled upon the profile of a guy named Kaydron.

When he saw the unfamiliar name, James couldn’t help but knit his brows, but he chose not to probe further.

“Don’t you even wonder a bit?”

James scrunched his brow. “Fanny’s got her own stuff going on. Even though I’m her brother, I can’t stick my nose into everything.”

Upon hearing his response, the guy didn’t push further and just got up to leave.

James hurriedly stopped him. “Hey, Mr. Zuckerberg. I need your hand with something.”

“You can just call me by my first name, Hugh said, his face tense.

James sensed the gravity of the situation and opted for a direct approach. “Hugh.”

Reluctantly, Hugh nodded and showed no rush to leave. He inquired about James‘ request.

“Keep an eye on my Zacharias. If he tries, anything shady with the hospital, give me a heads- up, James instructed him plainly.

James didn’t beat around the bush and laid out his request.

Having Hugh monitor Zacharias would save James a great deal of trouble.

Hugh agreed with a nod and replied promptly. “Sure, I’ll keep tabs on him.”

With that settled, he stood up and left.

This time, James didn’t try to stop him.

As the room fell silent with only one person left, James reviewed Fanny’s recent activities.

Afterward, he reached out to Scarlet. Upon discovering they were all heading home together, he swiftly agreed to join them later that evening.
