A Life Beyond Limits (Jack Holland) novel Chapter 1056

With all the major influences working in unison, even the most groundbreaking news faded like a wave crashing briefly before vanishing into the sea.

However, beneath the calm surface, a storm was brewing. As the core member of Patrick's inner circle and a key figure from one of the four prestigious families, Peter's arrest was a huge blow to Patrick and his supporters.

In response, an independent investigative team was formed with the support of various forces. The struggle surrounding Peter and the factions behind him continued to brew.

…

In a magnificently decked hall, Patrick sat in the presidential seat in the middle, enjoying a cigarette. Opposite him were Devin, Jett, and everyone else, with frowns on their faces.

Peter had been arrested. Soon, they might also be implicated, especially Devin.

His family, the Roes, had always been in lockstep with the Trevells. Whatever shady dealings Peter was involved in, Devin knew about them. And whatever Devin had done, Peter knew about them too.

If the Roes and Trevells had never committed those crimes, the situation would have turned out for the better. But the truth was that they did commit them. Their misconduct went far deeper than what was perceived so far.

Now that Peter was apprehended, the entire web was about to unravel.

Looking at Patrick's eyebrows knitted tightly, Devin couldn't help but finally ask, "Patrick, what should we do now?"

Patrick calmly replied, "Don't worry. This incident has stirred up a huge commotion. Given how high-profile it became, no one would dare lay a hand on Peter anytime soon."

Devin became more anxious after hearing his explanation. "Even so, we need to find a way to get Peter out as soon as possible. Come to think of it, you're the reason that we got into this smuggling business in the first place."
