There was someone whose movements were far more agile in the Crawfords' mansion. Why did their boss tell them to go in, and why did he want Stan to help?

Compared to Stan, was Luca not as smart and dexterous?

"Well then, tell me, did my uncle expose something?" Gerald asked again.

"I'm not sure. Isn't Mr. Muller also under the boss' control?" Luca pretended to sound surprised.

Gerald waved his hand. "No, he's just purely helping me out. He’s not part of the Island of Despair."

"Oh." Luca glanced into the distance and reminded him, "The person I've been watching has returned. Be careful. Don't blow my cover."

Gerald quickly followed her gaze and saw Luke approaching with a stack of documents.

He let out a cold shiver as he knew this man was not easy to fool. Hence, he reminded himself to be careful with his words as he could not risk getting caught.

There was only one rule when he received the training from the Island of Despair. Everyone had to keep their lips sealed tight, and no careless disclosures were allowed.

Luke came over, handed the documents to Gerald, and then looked at Luca. "What were you two talking about?"

"Mr. Gerald is curious about how Mr. Muller got injured. I mentioned there's surveillance in the mansion. After we settle things here, he can go over to the mansion and check the footage," answered Luca.

Luke nodded. His cold gaze fell on Gerald's face. "The surveillance footage has already been taken by the police. Head to the police station if you’d like to see it."

"Why did the police get involved?" Gerald was surprised. He was a head shorter than Luke. When Luke approached, he could feel the pressure.

"Does this have anything to do with your house being broken into and robbed by petty thieves?"

"You suspected something fishy, so I reported it for you. Let the police investigate how Mr. Muller fell. That's it," replied Luke.

"Oh." Gerald stepped back, feeling uneasy.

He had a feeling something was about to happen. Thus, he calmed himself down, intending to wait until Stan woke up before saying anything else.
