After Divorcing my Captain Husband (Chloe and Michael)

Chapter 739 Unraveling the Truth

Candy sighed, "As much as I hate to admit it, I think it's the case."

She glanced at Chloe again.

She added, "Chloe, maybe we should stay out of this. He's already returned, and Erik who hurt you is dead. This has nothing to do with us anymore, so why bother getting involved in the Clark family's mess?"

She had a point, and Chloe frowned, weighing the situation carefully.

"Then the fact that Erik ordered someone to hurt Chloe-are we just going to let that go?"

Things were getting more complicated, and if they dug deeper, she was sure they'd uncover even more unexpected secrets.

"I can ignore Erik's death, but I must find the person who hurt Chloe," Michael said firmly.

He knew well that if this person was bold enough to harm Chloe repeatedly, they wouldn't hesitate to find another accomplice after their first failed.

Giving up now would be leaving a ticking time bomb in Chloe's life.

James nodded in agreement. "I'm with him on this."

It was rare for the two men to agree on something. Normally, they couldn't stand each other.

Just then, Michael's phone rang. It was one of the bodyguards from the hospital, reporting that the man they'd been holding had regained consciousness and was demanding to be discharged.

Michael exchanged a glance with James.

"I'm going with you," Chloe declared, standing up.

This time, she didn't want to wait around for news.

Michael was concerned about her pregnancy. "Chloe, stay home. If things get chaotic, I might not be able to protect you."

Chloe insisted, "I can protect myself."

Michael gave in and brought her along. Seeing that Chloe was going, Candy quickly jumped up. "I'm going too."

The four of them set off for the hospital together.

When they arrived, the driver was cuffed to the bed. Earlier, he'd somehow managed to pick the lock with a paperclip.

The bodyguard didn't take his eyes off him, leaving no chance for an escape.

As soon as Michael entered, the bodyguard bowed his head. "Mr. Shawn."

Michael nodded slightly, signaling for the bodyguard to leave.

Now, only their inner circle remained in the room.

Michael stared at the driver. "Who sent you to kill?"

At first, the driver refused to speak. Michael stomped hard on the back of the man's knee, forcing him to kneel and then ground his foot into the man's calf, applying increasing pressure.

"Who sent you?" he demanded again.noveldrama

The driver groaned in pain.

His breath came in ragged gasps.

Michael said, "You don't have to say a word. You can nod or shake your head. But if you can't even move your head, you won't need it anymore."

James habitually reached for the gun by his side and placed it on

the table.

Seeing the gun triggered a memory in the driver's mind.

"William?" Michael asked, watching the man's slight flinch.

The driver's micro-expression gave him away.

Chapter 739 Unraveling the Truth Satisfied with the answer, Michael released his foot.

Blood seeped through the man's bandages, a result of the earlier gunshot wound James had inflicted, now worsened by Michael's brutal pressure.

James and Michael exchanged a glance. It was now clear that William had been orchestrating everything from the shadows, all in a bid to seize control of TerraEdge.
