Chapter 186: Chapter 162: Suspecting the Family Members (4 more updates)
The next day.
Clear skies.
Yvette personally prepared breakfast and waited for them to come downstairs.
Adam Stephens had been busy with work these days, returning home late at night and didn’t have much time to chat with his daughter.
When they met on the stairs, he rubbed her head gently.
Chloe suddenly furrowed her brow.
It made Len Hawthorne all the more determined.
"Chloe," Adam failed to notice his daughter’s discomfort, "I’ll take you to the amusement park next Saturday, as I promised you last time."
"You should spend more time with Mom. I’ll go to the amusement park by myself."
"Let’s all go together!"
"I’ve made plans with my friends. You two can go on your own."
Adam, who wanted to spend more time with his daughter, was speechless.

Zachary Fisher received the news from the Taylor Family and was shocked.
"Nathan Taylor died in his own house!"
Assistant Stanley Huxley said: "Our people rushed there as soon as we received the news early in the morning, but we haven’t been able to investigate the scene in detail."
It was unclear how he had died.
Zachary slowly furrowed his brow, "Recently, there have been some strange incidents in the Stephens family. We’ve also heard that they’re investigating on a large scale."
"Do you think these two matters are connected?"
"There’s certainly some connection," said Zachary, worried that the Fisher Family might also face a similar situation.
It seemed that they needed to strengthen the family defenses.
However, he was more inclined to suspect an inside job, as such incidents were common in big families like theirs.

Nathan’s assistant waited for him outside for a long time. He called inside the house and learned that Nathan never left the Taylor residence.
By the time everyone realized and checked the room upstairs, Nathan was already dead.
There were no signs of a struggle in the room, however, the injuries on Nathan’s body indicated that there had been a fight.
If Nathan had died outside the house, it would be one thing, but dying in his own house was quite chilling.
Wayne Taylor stood in Nathan’s room, his face dark and gloomy, his eyes sharp as knives as he surveyed the surroundings.
He couldn’t find any clues or traces of foul play.
Lily Taylor clenched her fists, staring at the wounds on her father’s back, "Grandfather, these wounds... they don’t look like they were caused by a human."
Chuck Taylor looked over and said to Wayne Taylor, "I’ve seen these wounds before, on a male celebrity."
Wayne Taylor turned around abruptly and stared at him, "Find out who is responsible for this."
Chuck shook his head, "That male celebrity is currently lying in the hospital. He went missing for a while before suddenly reappearing. There is something strange going on. Also, the cleaning team is watching him."
Nathan’s death ignited Wayne Taylor’s fury, "The cleaning team, it’s always them. Investigate the Taylor Family inside and out, and check everyone who might have had contact with him."
Chuck felt a jump in his heart.
What did Wayne mean by that?
Did he suspect someone within the Taylor Family?
True, with Nathan’s death, his son Jacob Taylor would take over his position. Chuck had also been looking for an opportunity for his son to replace Nathan.
But he knew that his son was not capable enough to silently kill Nathan without anyone noticing.

Hospital.
The Taylor Family members had connections in various hospitals, and it was easy for them to enter.
After meeting with Hendrik Winston yesterday, William Coleman woke up in the morning.
He quickly assessed the condition of his body.
There were no abnormalities.
Just as he was about to relax, a few people in white coats entered with icy stares, "Take him away."
"What are you doing!"
William shouted angrily.
One of them injected him with some medicine, and he immediately passed out.
*
"Deputy Team, it’s the Taylor family!"
"Oh?"
Chewing the dry bread, Ethan Coates sneered, "Rush up and stop him."
The people all around surrounded them, intending to push the unconscious William Coleman into the car. They raised their heads and saw the cleaning team members surrounding them. The faces of the Taylor Family members turned cold, and they took action at the same time.
A cold scent rushed into their noses, making them cough.
Ethan Coates felt a moment of dizziness, wondering what kind of powerful substance this was. Was the detoxification medicine they took ineffective?
It was only a moment before everything returned to normal.
Just as the team member was about to stop them, Ethan Coates pulled him back.
"Deputy?"
"Why stop them? Let them take him away."
"Deputy Coates, what are you thinking?"
"Didn’t the Winston Family want to obtain information from him? Let them go find him at the Taylor Family’s place."
The team member was taken aback, then laughed, "Deputy Coates, you’re so clever!"
A poisonous worm witch sect and the Eight Absolutes Medical Sect, both colliding - let’s see who would be more unfortunate.

In Class 11, everyone gradually got to know each other during the first week, and the learning atmosphere was very good.
Originally, Chloe Stephens acted as the class president, but it eventually fell on Cecilia Taylor.
The vice-president was Greene Quincy.
Cecilia Taylor put away her mobile phone and went out of the classroom to ask George Howard for leave from the campus area.
Chloe’s deskmate, Abigail Wilson, touched her hand, "Chloe, do you know Cecilia Taylor? From Taylor Family in Sheffield City, she’s really good at medicine!"
Chloe looked at her, "She is indeed impressive."
Seeing that Chloe was talking to her, Abigail Wilson pointed at Greene Quincy mysteriously, "They have a deep feud with the Lynch Family, and coincidentally, they ended up in the same class."
Upon hearing the words Lynch Family, Chloe looked at Greene Quincy.
The boy was sitting upright, and the slivers of sunlight poured in from the window and fell on his fair skin.
He was indeed quite handsome.
"Handsome, right? Last time I tried to add him on Whatsapp, but I was ruthlessly rejected!"
Abigail Wilson’s face showed disappointment, then she smiled and opened the campus website, pointing to a picture, "Chloe, you’re from the Mountain County, right? Look, one of the newest campus idols in our First Middle School, Oliver Gordon!"
Chloe wasn’t interested in those so-called campus idols.
Money tasted much better!
"Chloe, lately I’ve been following a cat owner. Look at this cat, so beautiful! Especially those eyes!"
Chloe glanced at the picture of her own cat: "..."
"And this streamer is really kindhearted! The medicine they sell is incredible! Last time I ordered some acne remover, and it was amazing!"
"Chloe, do you follow celebrities? Let me tell you, I’m into this new couple lately! Their merchandise is super cool, and I’m going to the live event to support them!"
Chloe: "..."
Why did her deskmate seem familiar?
*
Noon.
Chloe carried her schoolbag and exited the building.
Class 10 was just next door, so when their classes ended, they would go downstairs together.
"Chloe."
Oliver Gordon chased after her from behind.
But someone else was faster, blocking Chloe’s way.
Oliver Gordon frowned and stopped.
Chloe raised her eyelids to look at him, "What’s up?"
"I heard that you saved my grandfather. He specifically instructed me to take care of you."
Daniel Lynch stood in front of her, looking clean and handsome with a strong youthful aura!
Only a week into the semester, and the love letters from female students filled the desk, including from senior school sisters targeting the young meat.
"It was just a deal."
"But I already promised my grandfather," Daniel Lynch scanned her from top to bottom, "If you need help in the future, you can find me."
Chloe walked past him and left the school gate.
*
The Stephens Family’s car was already parked outside.
As Chloe got into the car, she saw Adam Stephens’ assistant sitting inside.
"Miss Chloe Stephens, the CEO asked me to take you to dinner."
Chloe gave a faint nod, adjusting her position to sit more comfortably.
The assistant had been transferred to Adam Stephens’ side by Pierce Stephens. He would report all matters, big and small, to Pierce Stephens, and Adam would usually avoid using him if possible. But today, there was something at the company, so he let someone pick up Chloe in advance.
