A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 1052

Concerned, Matthias asked, "Are you okay?"

Ian nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Mr. Armstrong. We're with Jack, so everything is okay."

It turned out that Matthias was on Jack's side.

Everyone's expressions turned tense, especially Patrick's, whose face had completely drained of color.

He recalled that the main person involved in his conflict with Jack at Saffron Faire Café was a guy named Ian Kingsley. Looking at Matthias' attitude, and suddenly remembering that Matthias' superior was named Kingsley, the fool immediately connected the dots, and he became evidently anxious.

After greeting Ian and Myra, Matthias turned toward Jack with a bright smile. Their eyes locked as they nodded toward each other with respect. Then, Matthias returned his attention to Gerard.

Gerard caught that fleeting glance exchanged between Matthias and Jack, and it made his body tremble in anger.

For Matthias to storm into the gala with armed forces so abruptly, something serious was about to happen. Matthias had important cards in hand. Otherwise, he wouldn't have barged in so confidently.

Gerard's expression darkened. "Mr. Armstrong, what's with the sudden show of force? This is a charity gala. Don't your people feel that you're ruining such a beautiful evening?"

Matthias said lightly, "Recently, we have uncovered a major smuggling case, and the suspect confessed to the potential involvement of some wealthy families in Tarthy City. Since we're involved in this case, I've personally brought my team here today to investigate the matter.

"Who does it involve?" Gerard's expression darkened, showing no signs of relenting.

"Peter Trevell from the Trevell Group."

"Peter?"
