Another laugh echoed inside the car, making Jennie frown. She was not joking ah.

"And here I was expecting you to tell me about how your grandmother molded you to become like this when in fact... you just read it from a book! How smart." Another laughter followed, making Jennie even more irritated.

"Tell me everything that you know about the thing that I asked you to do," she asked, trying to change the topic.

"Hmmm... well..." He made a deliberate pause, his gaze turned serious. "It seems that your hunch was right. Something else happened at the hospital." He stared at Jennie's calm face before he continued, "We found a nurse who told us that you only had bruises on your body when you arrived at the hospital. They were not aware that you were pregnant or were there any signs that you had a miscarriage when you were admitted to the hospital. Then all the nurses and doctors who attended to you that night were all mysteriously fired."

Jennie's eyelashes fluttered and she avoided George's gaze. "Tell me more," she said in a voice that was as calm spring breeze. It made George wonder what Jennie was thinking at this moment.

George and Lilian were very good friends. In fact, it was George who found Jennie first because of his connections in Korean triad. George was Lilian's favorite go-to man when it comes to illegal activities and obtaining information such as this because the Arisons had strong ties with the mafia. This was mainly because the Arisons and Facci were longtime friends not just in business but privately as well.

Moreover, Lilian was the type of woman who never involved herself in illegal matters.

George was in-charge of looking for Bec Facci. However, it took him years to find her simply because his ties were not as strong in Korea. By the time George found his childhood friend Bec Facci, he was aware that she was already dead. So he made sure to inquire about Jennie and her life as a Kim. He reported all that he knew to Lilian who immediately went to Korea to rescue Jennie.

This was also the reason why George knew everything about Jennie's past.

When Jennie arrived in London, George made sure to hide Jennie's true identity from everyone. He made it seem like Jennie came from an orphanage in Korea and how Lilian found out her existence after she met with an accident. He was there when Jennie was healing, learning and growing. George could even proudly say that he treated Jennie like his own daughter. This was also the reason why James had accidentally found out about Jennie's past.

As George continued to watch Jennie grow, he noticed how brilliant she was. She was not book smart or someone with an amazing memory. She couldn't calculate math in a split second. No, Jennie was normal. It was the way her mind works that was baffling on its own.

Jennie had the ability to foresee hundreds of possibilities in her small brilliant mind. She had the ability to analyze and anticipate the many different paths that a specific action could lead to. In other words, she could see how things are connected to each other, how one thing leads to another in what is commonly known as the 'Domino Effect'.

Jennie's ability to analyze things was top notch, making her the perfect scheming human. And this - this was the reason why George asked for her help in his revenge against his own wife and her family.

"Well?" Jennie's words woke him up from his stupor.

"I... We found someone with the same profile as the doctor who attended you and your mother. He is currently in Malaysia and we are working on obtaining some information from him. But I have to warn you... someone else is also looking into this. Someone is digging everything and they are not low-key about it."

With a gentle look on his face, George continued, "Please be careful Jennie. This group seem to come from the East. And they are dangerous... Very dangerous."
