Briar immediately looked down at her phone. Thirty seconds later, she calmly put it away, slipped her hands into her pockets, and leaned her head on Ashton’s arm.

In a soft, coaxing voice, she said, “Ashton, it doesn’t look like we’re getting anything out of Edgar for a while. I’m hungry. Let’s go back.”

Ashton nodded. “Okay.”

They said they were leaving, and they did, taking Brandon and fan with them.

The four of them left so decisively, without any hesitation, which stunned Ronan, who was secretly watching them.

He wondered what was going on.

Didn’t they come to the police station to keep a close watch on Edgar?

How could they just leave when Edgar hadn’t confessed to anything yet?

Were they just going to leave Edgar here? Weren’t they afraid that he would be secretly killed?

Unable to make sense of it, Ronan hurried back to his office to report the situation over the phone.

After leaving the police station, Brandon asked as he drove onto the main road, “Ma’am, where are we heading now?”

He thought, ‘She can’t really be planning to find a restaurant to fill her stomach, can she?‘

“To Jewell’s house.” A faint, cold smile appeared on Briar’s face.

Detecting the chill in Briar’s tone, Ian asked tentatively, “Are we going to kill Jewell?”

He thought if they couldn’t get Edgar, another fall guy would do.

“No, we’re going to find someone,” replied Ashton, who had been looking at his phone ever since getting in the car.

Ian stroked his chin, analyzing Ashton’s words from every angle with all sorts of conspiracy theories, but in the end, he could only shake his head. “I don’t get it. Ashton, what do you mean?”

Brandon was also unsure of Ashton’s intentions. “Ashton, is this related to the corruption involving Jewell and Edgar?”

Could Jewell also be connected to the person behind the underground lab?

It wasn’t impossible. After all, was Jewell’s network really limited to his connections through Beatrice Jennings and Emily?

Chapter 319

With the fall of the Jennings family, the only person Jewell could rely on was Emily.

Xavion had already thoroughly investigated Emily’s secret dealings.

“It’s related. You’ll understand when we get to Jewell’s house and arrest him,” Ashton said, not wishing to elaborate.

Brandon and lan exchanged a look, both seeing the excitement in each other’s eyes.

Ashton was clearly reminding them that a fight was coming.

He was feeling good about it.

Ian had been bottling up his frustration over the recent troubles, and he was itching for a fight.

He just wondered if the person they were about to catch could take a beating. Could Jewell even withstand a few of their punches?

An hour later, Ashton’s signature G–Wagon pulled up to the entrance of Jewell’s villa. Coincidentally, the gate opened at that very moment.

Then, their car blocked Jewell, who was just about to drive out.

“Ashton…” When Jewell saw that the driver blocking the gate was Brandon, he knew Ashton must be inside. His face paled as he muttered to himself, “I’m done for.”

Ian grew even more excited. “Tsk, tsk! Jewell looks at us like he’s seen a ghost. Has he done something wrong again?”

Without waiting for a response from Ashton, he opened the car door and jumped out.

Then, Ian sauntered over to Jewell’s car, leaned on the hood with both hands, tilted his head, and said, “Get

out.”

Jewell wanted to slam on the gas and send Ian flying.

But Ashton’s car was still blocking the way. Even if he killed Ian, he couldn’t escape Ashton’s men.

Under Ian’s increasingly cold, warning gaze, he slowly opened the car door.

Before Jewell could fully open the door, Ian rushed forward, dragged him out of the driver’s seat, and snatched the car keys.

“Ugh…” Ian threw Jewell to the ground like trash. The momentum scraped his palms, and he hissed in pain.

However, when he saw Ian drop him and pull three more people from the back seat, his previously calm expression turned deathly pale.

“Aren’t those… the three who caused trouble, spread rumors about the young mistress, and got expelled from Shoneport University?” Brandon had a good memory and recognized the three people in the back seat at a glance.

“I remember their names are Kim Whyet, Grover Harper, and Ernest Reed, right?”

Briar stared coldly at the men on the ground. Watching them tremble pitifully, she felt no sympathy.

“That’s them. After they were expelled, they were recruited by those people and, just like Jewell, became their most useless pawns.”

Brandon frowned. “Do they have a death wish? Why get mixed up with those people?”

The Whyet, Harper, and Reed families aren’t ordinary people with no connections. How could they be bribed so easily?

Or did those people promise some benefit to these three families?

However, Brandon didn’t think these three had anything that made them worth winning over.

“Mr. Wade, spare us!”

“Mr. Wade, we were wrong! Let us go!”

“Don’t kill us! We don’t know anything!”

Seeing Ashton and Briar step out of the car, the three men screamed in terror and scrambled to beg for
