Chapter 244 - Jennifer Jiang

Neil walked into the cafe with Henry and the waiter immediately took them to a private corner upstairs. As soon as they arrived, both men immediately recognized the Rainmaker, or Charles Tang, at the table.

Charles sensed their pairs of eyes were looking at him and looked up. His lips curled into a smile and he waved at both men. "President Mo, Mr. Wu," Charles greeted them both and stretched his hand for a handshake. "You made it here."

Previously, Assistant Shawn had mentioned to him that Henry was going to join their meeting. Therefore, Charles was not too surprised to see the man with Neil.

"Please, have a seat," Charles motioned towards the chairs across him. He snapped his finger and the waiter walked over to their table with a menu.

Neil and Henry exchanged a tactful glance and ordered their drinks. 

Once the waiter left, Neil leaned forward and stared at the man in front of him with a dangerous look in his eyes. "Mr. Charles… I come over knowing that you wanted to continue this cooperation, but it doesn't look like you were being sincere."

Charles laughed upon hearing Neil's words. "President Mo, be patient. I know why you have agreed to come despite your busy schedule." He took a sip from his caramel latte and smiled. "Don't worry. My sister will be here soon."

Hearing his words, Neil and Henry's expression ease up a little bit. 

A while later, a waitress walked over to their table with their coffee. After serving their drinks, the waitress slid into the empty chair next to Charles.

Neil and Henry watched the waitress in shock at this sudden movement, but Charles does not seem surprised at all.

"Hello," the waitress flashed them a smile. "I'm Jennifer Jiang."

It took both Neil and Henry a few seconds as they snapped out of their trance. There was a slight fluctuation in their gaze as they saw the long, faded scar on her right cheek. Even with that scar on her face, the woman in front of them was still beautiful.

After a few seconds of observation, they began to realize that the person who was sitting in front of them was indeed the person who they have been searching for months. 

"I'm sorry that I have to appear in front of you like this. But this is the only way I can protect myself," Jennifer said. She shifted her gaze to Neil. "President Mo, I'm sorry for the loss of both your brother and sister-in-law."

Neil lowered his gaze as he thought of Adam and Claire. 

"Miss Jiang, I have been looking all over for you," Henry spoke. "Where have you been?"

"Pardon me. But, something happened and I cannot come out. There was all sort of people waiting for me to appear and it was not safe outside." Jennifer subconsciously touched the scar on her face. The scar would sometimes tingle as if reminding her that they were still there. 

"I know that you have a lot of questions that you wanted to ask," Jennifer spoke. "I will do my best to tell you what I know and in exchange, I hope that President Mo could help me and continue to cooperate with me."

"Why should I help you?" Henry asked. 

"President Mo, I'm sure that you wanted to bring the person who had caused both Adam and Claire's death to be brought to justice," Jennifer said. "Only by exposing their crimes will both your brother and sister-in-law rest in peace. For that, we need to help each other."

Neil shifted his gaze to Charles and was reminded of his attitude during their cooperation. He looked at Jennifer and spoke. "Miss Jiang, you need to tell me what you know. Only then I will decide whether this cooperation will continue or not."

Jennifer shot her brother a look and sighed. Her brother had made it no secret that he did not like that she wanted to continue her cooperation with Neil Mo. In fact, Charles wanted her to stop investigating the case that led them to this disaster. 

A few months ago, she had almost died after she found out the truth. With no other choice, Jennifer could only look for her brother and ask for him to hide her. At that time, she had almost died. Charles was furious upon knowing what she was up to, but Jennifer was persistent to continue the investigation.

She has been working on this case for a long time and she could not let the matter go when she knew the truth. 

"President Mo, you already know what your brother was investigating before that accident," Jennifer said. "A while ago, my brother had handed you a part of my investigation files. You know who was the people who wanted to harm your company."

Neil's expression darkened as he thought of the name on the files that Charles had given him earlier. 

"At that time, your brother had doubts about what was going on in the company and decided to come and look for me for advice," Jennifer said. "I helped him to investigate what he wanted to know and we found out about those directors. However, we did not expect that someone else was watching our movement."

Her gaze lowered as Jennifer thought of the mistake that she had done. It was because of that that the others learned about their investigation. In the end, both Adam and Claire died while she had to stay in the hospital for months to recuperate.

"Those directors were not powerful enough to pull something and harm your brother. But the person they were working with is different. This person was helping the directors to hide their crimes in exchange for a large amount of money."

"Who is this person?" Neil asked impatiently. 

Jennifer leaned back on her seat. "President Mo, if I give out his name, what do you plan to do to him?"

"Of course, I wanted to do everything that I can to put him behind bars," Neil said. 

When he thought of how Adam and Claire had died and that they have to leave their daughter behind, Neil would feel pain. The couple did not deserve to die in such a tragic way and Hazel should not lose her parents' love and care at her age.

Jennifer Jiang studied Neil's expression and let out a breath. She knew that Neil wanted justice for his family members, but she was worried that Neil would be so consumed with hatred that he wanted to take matters into his hand. Seeing that his expression did not show the burning hatred that she was expecting, Jennifer was relieved.

"You can only bring him and everyone involved behind bars if you cooperate with me," Jennifer said. "We both wanted to punish the same man. President Mo, we should continue to work together."

"Tell me who this person is first," Neil said.

Charles glanced at his sister. His mouth opened as if he wanted to say something, but seeing the look she gave her, Charles decided that it was not appropriate.

Jennifer dragged forward a glass of water in front of her and dipped her finger in it.. Then, Jennifer moved her fingers on the table, scribbling down the name that every one of them knows so well.
