As Mrs. Lewis spoke softly, she asked, “Charlie, were you the one who recorded the video that went viral on the Inte? Did you also find the children?”


    Charlie smiled and replied, “Oh, Mrs. Lewis, you have too much faith in me. How could I possibly possess such incredible strength and talent?”


    Mrs. Lewis paused for a moment, then sighed, “I watched the video, and it seems Jeff is already gone…I truly didn’t expect this child to take such a path…”


    Charlie also sighed, responding, “I saw the video too. Jeff chose the wrong path himself, so don’t be too heartbroken, Mrs. Lewis.”


    “I understand…” Mrs. Lewis said sadly, “I always thought I would pass away before any of you children. I imagined you all would be there at my memorial service, bringing flowers when I was old and gone…”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    As she reminisced, Mrs. Lewis began to weep softly, “I never anticipated that one of the children would die before me. This child, Jeff… he’s truly frustrating, yet it’s such a pity.”


    “Absolutely!” Charlie eximed. “Mrs. Lewis, try not to dwell on this too much. I believe that Jeff’s situation will awaken many people. His death may lead others to change their ways. In a way, Jeff could be doing a good deed for society.”


    Mrs. Lewis nodded and said, “You’re right, Charlie. I won’t keep you any longer. I need to attend to the children who are awake now. Don’t forget toe back and visit the orphanage soon!”


    “Of course, Mrs. Lewis!”


    After ending the call, Charlie let out a sigh and walked back into the house.

    Meanwhile, William, who was always on the lookout for small gains, had just finished work.


    His factory had strict rules prohibiting cell phones during work hours, so he waspletely unaware of the events that had unfolded that day or the trending news online.


    Once off work, William changed out of his work clothes in the locker room and pulled out his phone. To his surprise, he found numerous notifications from his messaging app.


    When he opened the app, he discovered that the Aurous Hill Institute Welfare group chat had exploded with activity.


    At that moment, he realized he had over three thousand unread messages!


    He scrolled to the top and began to sift through the messages one by one.


    Initially, he saw that ten children were missing from the orphanage, but he didn’t think much of it. Why would it matter to him? He wouldn’t gain anything if the kids remained lost, nor would he receive a single cent if they were found.


    As he continued scrolling, he suddenly came across a video.


    Curiosity piqued, William clicked on the video and watched intently. Halfway through, he was taken aback.


    He couldn’t believe that the person responsible for abducting the ten children from the orphanage was none other than Jeff!


    William was baffled as he watched Jeff kneeling and confessing to his crimes!


    Jeff was a remarkable individual, someone who could effortlessly double his profits through investments and fund management. Why would he stoop to kidnapping children from the orphanage?


    At such a young age, Jeff owned both a Mercedes-Benz and a Phaeton. In William’s eyes, he was nothing short of impressive, a true idol!


    As he continued to watch, he saw Jeff walk to the edge of a bridge, only to be shot in the head and fall into the river…


    William was so shocked that he dropped his phone!


    This… what on earth was happening…<fn0d88> Official source is Find_Novel(.</fn0d88>


    Jeff is dead?


    If Jeff was dead, then what about the six hundred twenty thousand dors he owed? He had borrowed five hundred thousand of that from an online loan tform! Wasn’t this a matter of life and death for him?
