Chapter 652 How to Persist

She dialed Lucia's number, and when she got through, Helena said to her,

"Lucia, I heard what you said to mom just now. I even quarreled with her. She didn't waver at all. She still doesn't agree that we have anything to do with the men from the Davies family."

"I know," said Lucia. Her voice was a little deeper than Helena's. "It's impossible, perhaps, to make her feel better."

This was the first time Lucia had ever said such a thing. Before, she had always been hopeful. Helena, sensing the gloom in Lucia's words, quickly said,

"Lucia, you mustn't think of it that way. What if Arthur and Otis, who have been waiting for us, think of it this way?"

"What else can I do..." Lucia said with a wry smile. "Can you break off your relationship with your mom and choose to be with the one you love? Helena, can you do that?"

Helena was silent.

"I don't think so..." Lucia's bitter smile deepened as she sighed. "It's a dead end. We can't escape it."

"But what about them?" said Helena softly, a long time later.

"Yes... What about them?"

At this time, Otis, who was in San Francisco, felt something and stopped walking.

"Mr. Davies, what happens?" Otis's assistant asked him doubtfully.

"It's all right," Otis said, coming to his senses quickly. "Is the evidence collected now?"

"It's all been collected," the assistant replied. "We've found every record of Erik Davies's transfer of company assets. We're just waiting for your father's order."

"There's no hurry. Wait until he gets deeper." The people around him kept passing by. Otis was not affected at all. In his indifferent words, he had the wisdom to strategize.

"Yes." The assistant respectfully answered, and the two people continue to move forward.

That night, Erik couldn't sleep. His son and his shares had weighed the scales against each other countless times. By the next morning, he was tired as he made the decision to trade his shares for his son's freedom.

In the morning, Erik agreed to Nia's request to hand over the shares after the release of his son, and Nia laughed out loud as soon as he said that.

"Mr. Davies, do you think I'm stupid?" Nia said, laughing as she stared at Erik, who looked tired.

"How do I know you'll withdraw the charge if I give you the shares?" Erik said, raising his eyebrows. "I have to have guarantee."

"I'm sorry, but you're not qualified to talk about it right now," Nia said arrogantly. "You can only bet on whether or not I'll keep my promise. If you don't, then accept the fact that your son will be sentenced."

"Nia, you've gone too far!" Erik was furious as he realized that Nia was determined that he had no other choice.

"I've gone too far, just like what did Spencer do to me," Nia said slowly. "Make up your mind. It's just a document. There's no need to make it so complicated."

Erik gnashed, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, but in the end, he had to agree to Nia's request.

He can't afford to gamble.

At home, news of Spencer's arrest rumbled on, but Arthur didn't care. He cared about finding Jacob.

Last time he installed a virus on Nia's computer so that his son could track down Jacob. The timing was perfect, so Arthur made a video call to his son, who had followed his grandparents back to New York, and asked him how he was doing.

"Daddy, this Jacob is very cunning," Theodore said, pouting.

"What do you mean?" Arthur couldn't help but smile when he saw his son's cute face, although he was anxious to know where Jacob was.

"I've been tracking Nia and his contact information along the way. I've found that each time he logged in, he logged in from a different location and had a huge span. Sometimes, he even crossed state. Also, there's no regular time span between them. Obviously, Nia isn't just using this computer to communicate with him, which is not easy for tracking his trajectory," Theodore explained.

"What is the last known location?" Arthur continued, not visibly disappointed.

"It is a week ago in Vallentyne Town, State of Texas, and he probably moved," Theodore said.

"Thanks, Teddy." Vallentyne? Arthur noted the spot and consoled his son with a serious face.

"It's not hard," Theodore said proudly, raising his chin. "It's easy."

Looking at Theodore's proud face, Arthur chatted with him more. After a while, they reluctantly ended the video call. As soon as they hung up the video call, Arthur immediately turned to contact Otis.

"Otis, Vallentyne." As soon as the call went through, Arthur reported Jacob's location without any hesitation.

"Do you have a specific location?" Otis asked, without any further comment from Arthur.
