Chapter 365 Murderous Intent Hidden Behind a Smile
Kevin lowered his head. He did not know what to say in this situation. Caspian’s gaze
intimidated him more than that of any other person, and it brought about full–b*dy tremors and a quickening heartbeat..
The sight of Caspian standing there was enough to make Kevin feel despair.
Why was this matrilocal son–in–law more successful than him, anyway? Caspian’s wife, Willow, was the CEO of Southlake Corporation, too!
Caspian took out a sheaf of papers and tossed them at Kevin’s face.
“Kevin, look at these. They’re all records of crimes you’ve committed. With all this proof in my hands, I can always hand you to the Inspector General’s office. In that case, you’ll end up dragging the Copeland family down with you!” Caspian said coldly.
Kevin’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly picked up these papers and read them carefully, his face paling as he took in the contents.
On these papers were records of crimes he had committed. Everything was narrated by Eric,
the witness to those crimes.
“Caspian … No, Mr Lynch, please, I beg of you! Please give me one more chance. I was forced. to do all that! The Masseys forced me to do all that!” Kevin knelt on the floor, tears streaming
down his face.
If Caspian handed him to the authorities, he would be done for. He might even end up being in prison for the rest of his life! Even the Copeland family would meet its demise because of him, and he would become a criminal!
Kevin felt wronged. He had not wanted to do all those illegal deeds, but Saul and Jessica had forced him to. He could not say no, either. Otherwise, Saul and Jessica would surely give him trouble, and he would not be able to handle the torture they would inflict on him.
Suddenly, Caspian grew bored. Kevin was immensely cowardly. He would not have shown up if he had known how useless Kevin was.
“I can let you live, but you must work with me,” Caspian said indifferently.
“Mr. Lynch! I’ll listen to everything you say. If you need anything, just tell me!” Kevin said emotionally. He did not even hesitate. He was left with no choice at this point.
“It’s simple. I need you to spy for me. You’re to look for proof of the Masseys‘ wrongdoings. and
pass them to me. You also need to dig out all their secrets. If you can do that, I’ll make sure you survive!” Caspian said coldly.
“Uh…” Kevin was stunned. He felt somewhat hesitant–Saul and Jessica were not easy to deal
in prison for the rest of your life!” Caspian stated expressionlessly.
You only have one chance. If you don’t make the right choice, you’ll be
Kevin was overcome with anxiety after listening to Caspian’s words. At this moment, he cared about nothing but his survival. The Masseys, on the other hand, were not on his mind. Why should he care about whatever would happen to the Masseys?
Kevin quickly nodded, saying, “I agree to your proposal, Mr. Lynch! I agree to spy for you. I’ll surely report everything I uncover to you!”
“Great!” Caspian nodded.
Next, Kevin talked about everything he knew in front of everyone.
He hated the Masseys. He was still the eldest son of the Copeland family, after all. Yet, he led a life no better than that of a dog when living with the Masseys–Saul and Jessica were violent toward him. That filled his heart with hatred.
After listening to Kevin’s words, Caspian learned more about the Masseys. Saul and Jessica were truly cruel. They were willing to pay any price just to expand their influence.
“How dare they?” Caspian was furious. The murderous intent he exuded made Kevin tremble in fear, and he dared not say more at this point.
“Is everything you said true, Kevin?” Caspian stared at Kevin sharply.
“Everything I said is true. I have some proof with me!” Kevin bit out before taking a flash drive out. “On here, I have records of some transactions concerning the Masseys, both incoming and outgoing. I also have some records of their other crimes!”
Kevin was not stupid. He was cautious as he feared he would eventually be used as a scapegoat, meeting the same fate as Eric. Hence, he had prepared some proof of the Masseys‘ crimes in advance.
If Saul and Jessica ever did anything to him, he would make everything in this flash drive public.
Caspian took the flash drive, finding the situation hilarious. He could not help giving Eric a look. Noticing Caspian’s eyes on him, Eric could only grimace awkwardly.
Eric had made a book of accounts because he was wary of Kevin. At the same time, Kevin had prepared a flash drive because he was wary of the Masseys.
Saul and Jessica would never expect this to happen, probably.
At that moment, Kevin’s phone suddenly rang.

“Who’s calling?” Caspian asked.
“Mr. Lynch, it’s that bitch Jessica!” Kevin replied immediately. He dared not give a dismissive reply.
Caspian frowned. To call Kevin at this hour, Jessica must have done so because of an
emergency.
“Take the call,” Caspian said calmly.
“Yes, Mr. Lynch!” Kevin nodded before taking the call.
The moment Kevin took the call, he heard a slew of nasty curses. “Kevin Copeland, you good- for–nothing bastard, where the hell are you? Come back at this very instant!”
Caspian could not help but laugh when he heard Jessica scold Kevin. He did not expect Kevin to be in such an inferior position in the family.
“I’m driving…” Kevin said carefully.
“You’re useless! Come back this instant! There’s an urgent matter for you to deal with!”
Kevin glanced at Caspian, silently asking for his permission. Caspian nodded.
“What’s wrong, darling? Why are you so anxious?” Kevin asked cautiously.
“What’s wrong, you ask? It all happened because of you! Eric’s wife and daughter were taken away by Caspian’s men!
“Caspian Lynch, that bastard, he’ll surely give the family trouble, so we can’t just sit and wait for that to happen. Our plan now is to kill Lincoln Zott before everything else so that Caspian will know we’re not to be underestimated!
“If he dares give us more trouble, he must pay the price for his actions!” Jessica snapped exasperatedly.
Kevin’s face paled from the shock. He did not expect Saul and Jessica to have gone so crazy. They wanted to kill Lincoln. Did they not know that Lincoln was working for Caspian? And Lincoln was not an easy target either!
“Stop dawdling already! I’ll give you half an hour to crawl back here, so be quick!” Jessica ended the call before Kevin could reply.
Kevin was totally dumbfounded.
“You hear that, Lincoln? The Masseys want to kill you!” Caspian said to Lincoln, sounding fascinated.
The Masseys were becoming a bit too arrogant. Lincoln was no longer the wealthiest man in the Two Lakes area, but he was not an easy target either. It would be hard to kill him as he had
Lincoln said with a smile.
However, this smile was one with murderous intent behind it!
