Chapter 402

“Do you have proof that Holden is Claude Wyble?”

The man in black shook his head and replied hesitantly, “It is just a guess, and I don't have substantial proof. However, Lionel secretly sent a lot of his men to find out the whereabouts of Tarragon's vice president, Holden. That is strange enough so I'm pretty sure he is investigating Holden because of Ms. Wendy.”

Raymond slammed his palm on the table as a flash of excitement appeared on his weathered face. “Since you have a guess, do your best to confirm it.”

The man in black nodded. “How do I do that?”

Raymond sneered, “His son is with us, right? If Holden is indeed Claude, he must've discovered that his son is here. I believe he'll do his best to save his son. We'll set a trap so he'll reveal himself.”

With that, he waved at the man in black.

The man came nearer to the table and bent down.

Raymond whispered something in his ear.

“Got it?”

“Yes. I'll make the arrangements now.”

“Mm. Go ahead.”

When the door opened, she fell into the arms of the person who opened the door for her.

Artemis' brows furrowed. “I'm not your master.”

Huh?

A muddled Juliana looked down and promptly leaped away from him.
