After the divorce, I started to transfer

Julian left work early because of Yasser's matter. He thought his boss treated his subordinates quite well, and that was probably true.

After receiving Yasser's call for help, he immediately stepped in to assist, helping Yasser find his wife, who was unconscious in the hospital bathroom. He then planned to drive to pick up his youngest daughter from school, but on the way, he received another call from Yasser saying that his youngest daughter had already been picked up by Ahlina. So he turned back and went to the hospital to visit Yasser's wife, who had been taken to the emergency room.

As a result, his wife suffered a brain hemorrhage and stroke, and is highly likely to be paralyzed. This is reminiscent of Yasser's son, who was maliciously hit during a rugby match, suffering a severe spinal injury and also at risk of paralysis. His eldest daughter was seriously injured in a car accident, and the perpetrator is still at large and has not been caught by the police; she may also be at risk of paralysis.

Julian, as Asir's superior, couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for his subordinate. He could easily imagine the difficult situation Asir was about to face. Three out of his family of five were at risk of paralysis and needed care, and of course, money. Julian was somewhat worried that Asir might break too many rules in his pursuit of money, even at the expense of his superior's interests.

It's understandable that Yasser earns extra money on the side, since his boss also does so under certain circumstances. Otherwise, their regular job income, while not less than that of ordinary people, is still significantly less than that of those working for large companies.

More importantly, their department wields power, even power beyond the constitution and laws. This allows them to comfortably receive only a fixed salary, which is both inhumane and illogical.

Therefore, it's quite reasonable for them to earn some extra money in their spare time; it's kind of an unspoken rule. As long as you don't go too far or try to make too much money, even if the higher-ups know, they'll usually turn a blind eye.

Now, Julian is worried that his trusted subordinate might take risks for his family, make too much extra money, get investigated, and implicate him, his superior.

Julian, as Yasser's superior, had understandable concerns. Therefore, in his last contact with Yasser, Julian explicitly urged him to return as soon as possible, to Washington, and to his family. He didn't want Yasser to stay out there causing trouble or earning extra money; returning to headquarters in Washington was the safest and most secure option.

Of course, the fact that Yasser's family members had one mishap after another within half a day was also a very surprising thing for Julian.

At first, he suspected that someone was retaliating against Yasser, or that the accident involving Yasser's wife and two children was a deliberate act. But after learning more about it, he felt that this was impossible.

First, there was Yasser's wife, who suddenly fainted and suffered a brain hemorrhage while using the toilet. This was not caused by human intervention, but rather because she was at risk of cerebral infarction and brain hemorrhage, which was due to her own medical condition.

As for Yasser's son, who was injured by a malicious collision while participating in a school rugby game, this can only be described as an accident, not a completely deliberate act.

As for Yasser's eldest daughter being seriously injured in a car accident, Julian had also investigated the matter carefully: First, although Yasser's daughter did not run a red light when crossing the road, she did run a yellow light, which was a major factor in the accident; second, the driver fled the scene after hitting the person, which was obviously because the person was either a wanted criminal or was driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Therefore, the possibility that this car accident was intentionally caused is relatively small.

In conclusion, it seems like it was just a coincidence that Yasser's three family members encountered misfortune within half a day. It can only be said that Yasser's entire family was simply unlucky.

But the fact was so bizarre that even though Julian was actually an atheist, he saw something unusual and mysterious about the Asier family.

Even if a family is extremely unlucky, it's impossible for them to have such bad luck all at once, with three members suffering serious injuries or accidents for different reasons within half a day. This doesn't make sense from a probability standpoint.

The probability of this is extremely low. If a family of three were to travel together in a car and then be involved in a car accident and seriously injured together, that might be possible. But for a family of five, with three members suffering serious injuries or illnesses in different places within half a day for different reasons, is simply too illogical.

Julian pondered this for a long time, and couldn't help but think of Chen Feng, this mysterious Eastern man. He knew that Chen Feng had cured various terminal illnesses, including cancer, depression, and autism, through his blood. This was highly unusual and seemed eerie. But the intelligence indicated this was true; it couldn't be false.

The absurdity of Chen Feng, an Eastern man, curing various terminal illnesses, coupled with the absurdity of his trusted subordinate Yasser's family members suffering one mishap after another, made Julian wonder if the two had anything in common.

After confirming Yasser's wife's condition at the hospital, Julian immediately informed Yasser of the situation and then took out his secure phone to call Joseph directly.

The phone rang for about half a minute before it was answered.

"Hey Joseph, I have something to tell you."

Joseph on the other end of the phone gave a soft "hmm" and simply urged, "Go on."

Julian then said directly, "That Eastern man Chen Feng that you're all paying attention to called me."

"Oh, he called you?" Joseph's tone was slightly surprised, but he didn't seem too surprised.

After all, Julian had told him beforehand that Chen Feng already knew about their plan to arrest him. So, while Chen Feng's call to Julian was somewhat unexpected, it wasn't entirely surprising.

At first, everyone seemed to overlook Chen Feng, who was actually the most crucial figure, and instead focused more on the people behind him, such as the Lampson family, the super-rich second-generation Carl Hicks, and Senator Belis.

"Yes, he called me personally, which surprised me. I didn't expect him to have such courage; he didn't seem afraid of me at all. And he knew I was acting under someone's orders, although he didn't know who was specifically in charge, but he didn't seem worried or afraid at all."

He wants me to act as a middleman, to relay a message to you and the people behind you. His point is that if you have designs on him, you can choose to cooperate with him first. Of course, he also has the right to refuse. If he refuses to cooperate, it's up to you whether you become friends or enemies. If you choose to be his enemies, he's not afraid either. That's roughly the gist of it, so you can convey his message to Mr. Moore to see if there's any possibility of cooperating with him. Let me know when you have a result, and I, as the middleman, will relay it to him.”

Julian explained the situation clearly in one go. In fact, he didn't want to deal with middlemen like Joseph, or rather, disgusting brokers and lackeys.

After a moment of silence, Joseph said, "Okay, I understand. I'll talk to Mr. Moore. Have you found out why the information was leaked? I have. There's no possibility of a leak. When we sent you to arrest Chen Feng, only Mr. Moore and I knew about it. No one else knew, so there was no possibility of a leak."

So the source of the leak must be on your end. You said only you and your trusted subordinate knew, so unless you didn't leak it, it must have been him. Or, your office or your trusted subordinate was being wiretapped—it's that simple. I need an explanation.”

Upon hearing this, Julian's face darkened, and he said coldly, "There's no possibility of a leak on my end either. My phone and my office weren't tapped. As for my subordinate, as I told you, I absolutely trust him. When we discussed the arrest plan, it was just the two of us, and it was in my office. There's no possibility of him being tapped either. And after we left the office, we didn't discuss the plan again, so there shouldn't be any possibility of a leak."

Upon hearing this, Joseph's tone turned cold: "If it wasn't leaked by me, and it wasn't leaked by you, then was it leaked by God? Julian, you must find out the reason for the leak, otherwise how will I contact you in the future? Was the message already leaked when we were talking now? If the reason isn't found out, none of us will be safe."

Julian said somewhat angrily, "Anyway, I absolutely did not leak anything, and I don't know how it was leaked. How am I supposed to investigate? Besides, the other side already knows about this, so what's the point of investigating? Personally, I think that since the other side has such a powerful background and special abilities, you should choose to cooperate with him instead of trying to arrest and control him. That's impossible. The other side is not a simple person, and he might have some means to retaliate against you. Anyway, I don't want to be involved in this matter anymore. At most, I'll just be a middleman between you and him."

“Julian, watch your place! You have no right or qualification to lecture us, much less complain about us. Without us, you wouldn’t have such a good job and such a good position today.” Joseph said this, clearly also very angry.

Although Julian was seething with anger and gritted his teeth, he ultimately restrained himself and didn't lash out. After taking a deep breath, he apologized directly: "I'm sorry, sir, I got a little agitated just now. It's mainly because the person you suspect, my subordinate, has encountered some trouble at home. His wife suffered a stroke and is still in the hospital, possibly facing lifelong paralysis; his son was seriously injured in a rugby match and also risks paralysis; his daughter was hit by a car while crossing the street and is also at risk of future paralysis."

I'm in the hospital right now. He begged me to come because he's in Los Angeles. I sent him on a mission to arrest Chen Feng. So, I just lost control of my emotions. I think it's unfair of you to doubt my subordinate. I sent him to Los Angeles just to carry out your mission, and this happened to his family. In just one afternoon, his wife and two children suffered this tragedy.”

Joseph was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and subconsciously asked, "Are you kidding me? How could such a thing happen? In one afternoon, three people in his family have all encountered misfortune. Is it deliberate? Is someone targeting him or retaliating against him?"

Julian sighed and said slowly, "At first, I also suspected that someone was maliciously targeting him and his family, but from what I learned afterward, it seems that's not the case. It's just that, as you said, such a thing is very difficult to happen in reality, but it happened anyway, which seems a bit abnormal."

Therefore, I also suspect that this matter might be related to that Chinese man, Chen Feng. After all, he possesses special abilities; your previous intelligence indicated he could heal illnesses, even terminal diseases. So, does he have other special abilities that you haven't yet discovered or are unaware of? Like this incident of the information being leaked prematurely. You said there was no leak on your end, absolutely no possibility, and I also guarantee there was no leak. So, could it be that Chen Feng possesses the special ability to foresee danger? If this hypothesis is true, then it makes sense; otherwise, I really don't know how the information was leaked.”

Julian's words seemed to have resonated with Joseph, who remained silent for a while before saying, "Your reasoning and speculation are quite interesting. I will discuss it with Mr. Moore and also have someone conduct a thorough investigation. As for what he asked you to pass on to us, I will do the same. Whether or not we cooperate with him is not a decision I can make. Alright, that's all for today. I will let you know if there is any news."

"it is good."

The two hung up the phone almost simultaneously, as if by unspoken agreement.

……

The large supermarket, located more than ten kilometers from Liana Valley, was indeed huge, with a dazzling array of goods. It offered everything from daily necessities to various foods, household items, and clothing, and naturally, a wide variety of toys for children. Brina led the way and did the shopping, while Chen Feng pushed the shopping cart behind them.

Of course, since the two of them were already there, they weren't just there to buy toys. They'd buy other things they liked, but it was mainly Brina who did the buying. She bought whatever food and household items looked decent. Chen Feng, on the other hand, wasn't interested in these daily necessities or packaged foods. He only showed interest in wrenches, hammers, and the like when he browsed the hardware section. He also found the cutting machines and lawnmowers quite interesting and lingered there for quite a while.

However, he's only interested; he certainly won't buy it, because it wouldn't be of any use here. He doesn't even own a house in Los Angeles yet. Of course, if he's planning for the long term, he might buy a house here. He also plans to buy a house in San Francisco, but that will be done through a charitable foundation.

The two spent over an hour shopping at the supermarket before driving back to Liana Valley. It was only 5:30 PM, still early before the local dinner time of around 8 PM, so they went back to their hotel first. They took a shower together, enjoying a romantic bath, and another hour quickly passed.

After coming out of the bathroom, lying in bed chatting, watching TV, and then scrolling through my phone, time flies by.

Around 7:30, the two finished getting ready, and it was about time, so they left the hotel and drove together to Zhou Ruiyuan and Ruili's house.

At this time, all five members of his family must be at home, and his three children should certainly be there as well.

I drove the car to the gate of their yard and honked the horn.

Soon, the gate to the courtyard was opened. Before their formal visit, Brina had contacted Riley in advance and received his permission. Otherwise, visiting someone's home without prior notice would be considered very impolite.

Riley was delighted that they could visit again that evening and warmly invited them in once more.

Then, sure enough, we saw their three children in their living room: the eldest was a daughter, 12 years old; the second was a boy, 8 years old; and the youngest was their daughter, only 3 years old.

Children are most interesting, adorable, and fun when they're two or three years old, especially when they have chubby, pink cheeks—they're just so endearing. Brina immediately hugged their little daughter, Lily, and couldn't put her down. Lily clearly liked Brina, this beautiful older sister, and the two had a wonderful time playing together.
