Chapter 781 I Might Know Who It Is
After Jonathan sent the person away, he returned to the office and looked at the man standing by the
floor-to-ceiling window. He whispered, "President Pearson..."
Aidan didn't react much to that; his gaze was cold and calm.
Just as Jonathan nodded slightly and was about to leave, Aidan suddenly spoke. "Do you think what he
said is true?"
Jonathan remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "No matter what he says, he has other
motives in mind, so you should just ignore him."
Aidan coldly asked, "I should just ignore him?"
"They want to save Old Master Pearson, so they can only come to you. Saying those things is just to
provoke you and make you and Young Master Justin become enemies, so that they can fulfill their
wishes."
"But you do know that what he said is true, do you?"
Jonathan immediately fell silent and didn't say anything more.
This topic had always been something Aidan always avoided.
Since the death of Sienna, many things began happening in Jamesdon, one after another. The
situation had long developed beyond Sienna's control and ability.
If she could stir up such chaos, she wouldn't have resorted to suicide to intensify the hatred between
Aidan and Justin.
At first, they thought she had been in contact with the Woodley Family in Jamesdon, but the final result
showed that she didn't even know the Woodley Family existed.
Moreover, on the night of Sienna's suicide, she instructed the nanny to suffocate the child in front of
everyone.
Regardless of whether the child was killed or not, neither Aidan nor Gordon would let her go.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt that time, she had already decided to give up her life.
To be able to die with the child was definitely a gain for her.
That was Sienna's plan.
If she were the one behind the nutrient injections, she wouldn't need to commit suicide. She could just
wait quietly for the child to fall ill and watch everyone being worried and helpless, which would be the
most satisfying way for her to vent her hatred.
The aftermath of the nutrient injections would directly pin the blame on the Woodley Family.
Or rather, the nutrient injection incident was like a slightly ajar door for the Woodleys, tempting them to
push it open and discover what was behind it.
On the other hand, the person who created that door wanted Aidan to find out the truth from twenty
years ago by himself.
At this point, there were already signs of who the mastermind behind all this was.
But Aidan told them not to investigate further.
The things they had gathered at this point were enough.
After a while, Aidan asked, "Do you think I'm selfish?"
Jonathan didn't know how to answer, so he simply remained silent.
Seeming to think he didn't need Jonathan's opinion, Aidan continued, "I'm afraid continuing the
investigation might lead to Leanna discovering everything. She used to firmly believe that Justin was
the only good person in the Pearson Family, and he was the only source of warmth she felt in the
Pearson Family. But what will she think if she finds out that he's the mastermind behind all this?
Also, I have some selfish thoughts. I often think that maybe what I have found out is all wrong. So, I
want to wait a little longer. Maybe there will be a new turn of events. Besides Leanna, Justin also
showed me a bright side to that disgusting place."
Aidan had been addressing Justin as his older brother for over twenty years and thought he knew the
latter very well.
But at some point in time, the Justin Pearson he knew gradually built a facade for himself.
At the very least, during the years Aidan lived in the Pearson Residence, Justin had treated him
sincerely.
Jonathan had been Aidan's assistant for many years, but it was the first time he had heard the other
say so much. Moreover, what Aidan said was sincere and heartbreaking.
However, he wasn't good at answering this type of question.
After a long time, Jonathan finally managed to squeeze out a few words and nodded in agreement.
"That's true..."
Aidan glanced at him coldly. "Get out."
Jonathan immediately answered, "Yes."
He had only taken two steps when Aidan ordered, "Stop."
Turning back, he asked, "Do you have any other orders?"
Aidan instructed, "Keep an eye on the guy who just left. Don't let him get close to Leanna."
Jonathan was taken aback and then understood what Aidan meant.
At this point, Gordon's men must be desperate to save Gordon from Justin, or else they wouldn't come
looking for Aidan several times. But after being rejected so thoroughly, they would probably change
targets.
As for Aidan and his gang, they had the evidence against Justin and knew the truth behind the
Crossley Family incident back then.
Therefore, the most likely outcome was that Gordon's men would turn to Leanna.
After that realization, Jonathan immediately said, "I'll call Keaton right now."
Once Jonathan left, Aidan sat back at his desk.
After a while, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
He calmly explained, "Justin met a female doctor during his previous trip to Vinland, so the enhanced
nutrient injections might have come from her."
On the other end of the phone, Lachlan asked, "A female doctor?"

Aidan replied, "I've already sent someone to Vinland to look into this matter. It won't take long to get the
results."
But Lachlan declined, "No need for that. If it's a female doctor, I probably know who it is."
Lachlan's laboratory had a lineup of more than a dozen top doctors in the industry. Therefore, he had
heard of Amanda.
Although she had great medical skills, her personality was twisted and eccentric. She never used her
abilities for good but often used them for evil.
There were many female doctors in the world.
But only one woman could make an enhanced version of the nutrient injections and do such unethical
things. That woman was Amanda.
After receiving the news from Lachlan, Aidan had Jonathan look into Amanda's whereabouts. Later, he
was told that she had arrived in Highside.
Jonathan said, "President Pearson, that woman... seems to be the one who kidnapped Daniel."
When Aidan heard that, he narrowed his dark eyes and pursed his thin lips, not saying a word.
In the meantime, Jonathan could guess that this was a trap that had been set up a long time ago.
The reason why Leroy was rescued might be related to these incidents.
Jonathan continued, "I also found out that Amanda has been frequenting various underground casinos
recently, but..."
"But what?"
"But someone has been looking for her since yesterday. She probably heard about it and disappeared."
Aidan looked up at him, clearly losing patience with him.
So, Jonathan quickly added, "It's Ron Sedley."
With furrowed eyebrows, Aidan asked, "Is it Leanna?"
Jonathan nodded. "Madam went to see Ron yesterday afternoon, probably to ask him to help find
Amanda. But I don't think it's because she suspects anything. She might be doing it for Daniel..."
After a few seconds of silence, Aidan instructed, "Tell Keaton to head over in person and find her
before Ron does."
