Chapter 355 Utter Despair
All of a sudden, the atmosphere grew tense.
The nagging feeling that Saul and Jessica felt intensified.
“You know who they are now, right?” Caspian barked at them.
“What do you mean by that, Caspian? Why does it matter whether or not we know who
they are?” Saul deflected by pretending to be ignorant.
Too lazy to mince words with Saul, Caspian threw a stack of paper at Saul and growled,
“Take a look at this! It’s an account of everything the Masseys have done!”
Saul picked up a few sheets of paper and glanced through them. The moment he saw
what was written on them, he froze.
It was a detailed account of all the Massey family’s illegal dealings, including a ton of
evidence!
In an instant, Saul started shaking, and his expression turned ugly.
“This isn’t true! It’s all slander! The Masseys did no such thing!” Saul bellowed as loudly
as possible to hide his fear.
Caspian scoffed in derision.
Saul was still trying to put up a fight. How dared he try to weasel his
evidence was right under his nose?
“Bring him in!” Caspian shouted.

Before returning to Riverside Villa, Caspian had instructed Bernard and his people to bring
Diego over.
After hearing the order, they brought Diego into the villa.
The moment Saul spotted Diego, he became even more terrified.
“Don’t tell me you don’t know who this is, Saul,” Caspian said as he pointed at Diego.
“As a matter of fact, I don’t! Don’t try to trick me, Caspian. You’re trying to frame us with
false accusations, aren’t you? If you insist on doing this, I don’t mind getting the

Caspian guffawed.
Saul was such a brilliant actor! If the Inspector General’s office got involved, the Masseys
were doomed.

Although he didn’t know who Caspian was, he saw the amount of respect Bernard and
Lincoln showed Caspian.

wealthiest man in the Two Lakes area, and since he was willingly
serving Caspian, Caspian had to be someone incredibly powerful.
“I did everything under your orders, Mr. Eric! I wouldn’t have dared to otherwise!” Diego
said as he looked at Eric. He dared not lie.
“Don’t fucking try to accuse me! I don’t know who you are! Stop spouting nonsense!” Eric
roared back
He was making one last attempt to absolve himself of all wrongdoing. Perhaps he could
get out of this situation unscathed if he pinned all the blaine on Diego.
Diego was stunned. All along, he had simply carried out the Massey family’s orders. Why
were they refusing to admit their part in the matter now?
What were they trying to do?
“Why aren’t you telling the truth, Mr. Eric? You were the one who told me to do everything!
You asked me to collect payment from Cora. How can you turn around and say otherwise
now?
Diego exclaimed with widened eyes.
“Hey, fucker! How dare you say such bullshit? I’m going to teach you a lesson!” Eric
snarled as he raised his fist and lunged at Diego.
Eric just had a bold idea. As long as he could kill off Diego, there would no longer be any
evidence that led back to him.
Diego was terrified.
He knew full well what Eric was capable of.
Eric used to be a street thug with a criminal record. He had gone to prison for beating up
someone.
Diego immediately tried to back away.
Just then, Caspian came forward and blocked Eric’s fist before kicking him in the calf.
A loud crack rang out.
“My leg! My leg!” Eric howled in agony as he stumbled to the floor.
“Trying to attack the witness, huh?” Caspian uttered icily.
