Chapter 1703

There was instant silence on the other side of the phone.

Larkin seemed to want to say, "Do you want to face a fight from me alone, or a joint attack from three sides?"

"Larkin, don't push it too far, Calvert retorted angrily. "Even a cornered rat will bite."

Larkin's reply was ice-cold, "Go on, give it your best shot.' He's always been the type to live and let live.

But if someone messes with his loved ones, he won't pull punches.

With that, he hung up.

Then, he turned around and headed to the kitchen.

Erica Shields woke up.

Breakfast was already in her room.

She brushed her teeth happily, then sat down in front of Larkin and started eating her breakfast.

After breakfast, the couple prepared to say goodbye to Rosalynn and Paige, and set off to visit Larkin's teacher.

Paige and Erica were reluctant to part.

Rosalynn, however, pulled Larkin aside.

"I found something odd about the information leak yesterday, so I had someone look into it,, Rosalynn said, handing Larkin some documents. "Turns out it was Jack Shields who did it. Here's the proof. You decide whether to tell Erica."

Larkin was surprised, then deeply grateful.

He wasn't the only one looking out for Erica.

"I found out too,' Larkin replied politely. "Ms. Tesdal, thank you for caring for Erica"

Rosalynn was taken aback, then broke into a smile, "With you by her side, I can rest easy. Nobody can mess with her!"

Larkin nodded, smiling.

"How do you plan to handle this?" Rosalynn asked curiously.

"He's got a laundry list of crimes. Just a few of the serious ones would be enough to lock him up for decades,' Larkin responded.

Jack's country didn't have the death penalty.

"Well done,' Rosalynn nodded.

Then, they returned to the living room.

Rosalynn separated Paige and Erica, "You only have a few days left, stop being glued together. Get going!"

Both of them made sad faces.

Then Erica and Larkin left.

Once in the car.

Erica asked, "What did Rosalynn say to you?"

Larkin was a man of truth. If Erica asked, he had to answer honestly, "We found out who spread the rumors."

Erica was taken aback, then pursed her lips: "It was Jack, wasn't it?"

Larkin looked at Erica in surprise: "You checked too?"

"Not exactly, just a hunch,' Erica shrugged, looking ahead. "The familiar and disgusting tone in the chat history, I knew it was that jerk the moment I saw it!" Larkin's gaze deepened.

Just by reading the text, she could tell it was him, showing she had seen plenty of his crazy rants before.

"I found some evidence of his crimes and have already submitted them without your permission,' Larkin added.

Erica nodded, "Crimes? What kind of crimes? Are they serious?"

"Serious enough to get a long sentence,' Larkin replied.

Why did he feel a vague sense of anticipation and excitement from Erica's tone and expression?
