My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1351

The people who were sent to kill Sophia and kidnap Carmen didn’t seem to have any connections with each other, but Theo knew that they were accomplices. After consecutively settling two groups of people, Theo figured that the matter wasn’t as simple as it seemed. With his sharp intuition, he quickly discovered that they were part of a gang that had resided in Bayside City for many years. But, there was no evidence to prove that this matter was related to Jordan, nor was there any proof that these people were connected to him.

In the past, no one knew about the relationship between these two parties, but now that they were aware, they could use the excuse of cracking down on these criminals to end them once and for all. Theo personally led the team, and after a whole day’s work of uncovering one crime after another, they managed to remove them completely from Bayside City, making sure to leave no trace behind. It affected nearly half the city, but from then on, that gang became history.

Over the course of this entire day, ordinary citizens seemed to have noticed that something was going on. Riverdale was crawling with soldiers and police, and many companies had let their employees off early.

At midnight, Sophia received an overseas call from Callum. As soon as she picked up, Callum exclaimed, “Wow, Sophia, you’re amazing! You’ve actually managed to get rid of one of Jordan’s support systems. That gang is one that he’s been secretly operating in Bayside City for many years now! You’re awesome!”

After Cooper and Linus were caught, Callum reckoned that they were going to be finished off by Jordan, one by one!

To their surprise, they were informed early in the morning that one of Jordan’s support systems had been destroyed. If it wasn’t because he was quick to cut ties with them, he would’ve been implicated by now.

Unsurprisingly, that gang belonged to Jordan, and it was one of his strongest support systems. In fact, in Bayside City, they were considered a part of the Edwards Group.

Hence, he didn’t expect that Sophia would manage to find a way to eradicate his biggest support system!

It was incredible!

Upon hearing this, Sophia let out a cold laugh before hanging up.

In her mind, she was registering the secret information that had just been uncovered.

Since Jordan and that secret society were related and they were one of his support systems, they must have been operating for many years. His support system would be like his limbs—attached to him in some way. As bones were attached to the tendons, it would be impossible to perform a clean break in just one day.

Early the next day, Taylor made a post on his Twitter. There were only two videos with no text captioning them.

The first video was footage taken from the highway’s surveillance camera of Sophia nearly being crushed by the two trucks. Four vehicles could be seen trying to enclose a small sports car, potentially crushing it at any moment. In the end, the tiny Dragon Eye sports car managed to escape.

The second video was of Carmen nearly being taken away at the kindergarten entrance.

As soon as the videos were posted, they became a hot topic, and it evoked a sense of panic in the public.

They never expected that there were people in Bayside City who would try to nab a child and murder someone in broad daylight!

Did the law even exist anymore?

The relevant authorities made official announcements stating that they had eliminated the gang behind this and that the case was currently under investigation.

At noon, a massive group of police and soldiers surrounded Edwards Group Tower, blocking off all the passages and entryways. Edwards Group was having a board meeting, so every director was present as well as certain shareholders. They rushed in and arrested several of Edwards Groups’ people based on the leads they had received, whisking them away without any questioning.

By the time Jordan arrived at the scene, numerous Edwards Group employees had already been handcuffed and were being stuffed into the cars.

Jordan had arrived with a lawyer. All along, he had been calm and collected as if he was the head of the Edwards Family that had everything in the palm of his hands. But today, he was unexpectedly anxious.

Only he knew the pain of losing an entire support system. To make matters worse, the Fletchers were going after the Edwards Group as well!

At first, he figured that although the situation had gotten awry, they would not be able to place the blame on him. But, he had to admit that this time, he had truly underestimated his opponents.
