The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

As Merlin and Christian were talking, they had analyzed the Fox family's situation and come up with speculation.

They suspected that the mystery man had indeed kidnapped Homer, but not for money. It was to thrust the Fox family into the limelight and publicly execute them later. However, Spencer and Xavion had only paid attention to the kidnapping case, not realizing that. Hence, they were both incredulous when they heard Merlin's words.

Spencer looked particularly skeptical about it. He felt a little guilty because of his disgraceful move in seizing the position of the head of the family and the ongoing search for his father, Jordan's whereabouts. When Spencer heard Merlin's comment, he immediately berated angrily, "What a joke! Our family is upright and dignified! We don't have any scandal for the kidnapper to discover!"

"You're supposed to be the best Oskian inspector, but you're coming to me to talk about nonsense instead of making an effort to find the kidnapper! What are you thinking?! Are you trying to laugh at our misfortune?!"

Merlin shook his head and said solemnly," To be frank, I don't like how you seized power from your father, but I didn't come here to laugh at your misfortune today."

Then, Merlin said to the both of them, "I think the kidnapper deliberately exposed Mr. Homer's scandal of kissing a woman by the street. He's leaving an opportunity for you to reveal the truth and change the public's opinion."

However, he changed his tune at the very next second and said coldly, "This may seem like a good opportunity, but it is full of murderous intentions. Now, the world is paying attention to Homer's kidnap case and the Fox family. If the Fox family is involved in any shocking scandals at this time, it will be a fatal blow to you. No one will be able to help you!"

The color on Spencer's face kept changing, and his face twisted in an ugly manner.

He was justifiably proud of himself except for how he had earned his current position. He had earned his role as the head of the family with a disgraceful move, so it had become an extremely sensitive topic to him.

Merlin's blunt remark made him feel ashamed and angry at his dishonorable move when he had seized power from his father. As a result, he did not listen to the second half of Merlin's statement at all.

He bellowed in anger, "Chief hammy, we don't welcome you here! Please leave!"

Merlin shrugged helplessly and said, "Mr. Fox, I know you're an important person and it's normal for you to be prideful, but please don't let your pride affect your judgment. Ignoring the facts will only lead to

aggravation of the se

You'll

consequences."

Spencer did not expect Merlin to continue chattering about this issue. In his anger, he suddenly roared, "Get out of here now! Get out!"

Merlin frowned a little. He still wanted to say something, but he hesitated a little.

Finally, he gave up and turned to Xavion

instead, "Mr. Xavion, I'll be honest with you. All kidnappers have one thing in common. They will try to refrain from attracting any attention to the kidnapping as much as possible!"

"Over the past few decades in my career, all the kidnappers in the kidnap cases I have encountered have clearly warned the victim's family not to call the police."

"Additionally, in more than half of the kidnap cases I've dealt with, the kidnappers have murdered their victims due to heightened public attention. In short, the kidnapper killed the victim to protect himself!"

"However, your son's case is

extremely strange. The kidnapper isn't afraid of exposure, and on the. contrary, he has been using all kinds of means to fuel the flames. It seems that he hopes to announce this matter to the world and attract everyone's attention, which in itself is counterintuitive."

'There must be a reason for his strange moves. Your father is unable to judge cafmly and objectively because of his biases, so I hope you can calm down and think about it. After all, this scandal may stem from any three of you. If you can find some clues, you may be able to save Homer."
