Investigation - Part 1
Jared's assistant got to work immediately and ordered all the men he could get in touch with to go into hiding. The matter had become a nationwide issue, and things would only get complicated if even one among them got caught. Jared was already under fire, his relationship with Fredrick Clarke becoming his Achilles' heel. He did not want to add more to his misery, not when the Intelligence was already keeping a close eye on him.
The only glimmer of hope for him was that there was no substantial evidence that could prove him to be guilty. But Jared knew that Maggie had the evidence with her, and it would be soon since the police would come knocking at his door. And he had to take precautions before that happened.
However, to his dismay, Jared did not even have the time to plan his way out of the fix he was in when the bell rang. Jared cursed under his breath. He was already distressed over the matter and he was now irritated on being disturbed.
