Chapter 920 Scarlett did not linger any longer and left after James dismissed her.
After she left, James stood up.
Maxine asked, Are you going to Sovereign Antique Shop? James looked at Maxine.
This woman is incredible.
She can immediately guess whats on my mind, he thought.
My admiration for you keeps growing daily.
I feel like theres nothing I can hide from you, James praised her sincerely.
Maxine stood up and said with a smile, Sovereign Antique Shop is the only clue we have right now, so it wasnt hard for me to know.
James nodded and said, Yeah.
I plan to head over and investigate a little.
The ancient chest that contained the ancient scroll was stored in Sovereign Antique Shop.
The shops owner used to be the Emperors subordinate.
Now that the Emperor is dead, Ill have to go there and find clues to solve the mysteries.
Ill come with you.
Alright.
Luther came over and asked, Do you need me to drive you both there? James waved his hand and said, No, just pass me the car keys.
Well drive ourselves.
Can I come with you guys, James? Cynthia stood up and looked at James pleadingly.

She had been recuperating at home and had not stepped outside for a long time.
Now that her physical condition had improved, she wanted to go for a walk and relax.
James disapproved.
Were going there for serious business and not to have fun.
You still havent fully recovered, so just stay home.
Fine, Cynthia replied dejectedly.
Luther handed over the car keys to James.
He took the keys and left the villa.
They headed to the garage, got into the car, and headed to Cansingtons antique street.
Soon, they arrived at the antique street and walked into Sovereign Antique Shop.
An employee quickly approached and greeted them.
It was the same old man who served James the last time.
Hey there, Mr.
Caden! Its you again.
James asked, Is your boss in today? Yeah, hes in his office upstairs.
James said, I have some questions for him.
After James finished speaking, he headed up the stairs.
Outside the office room… The door was closed, so James gently knocked on the door.
No movements could be heard from theother side.
He knocked again.
Still, there was no response.
Maxine said, Is he not inside the office? James forcefully pushed open the door and the two walked into the office room.
A middleaged man dressed in black leather clothing was seen lying lifeless on the desk.
James walked closer and immediately noticed the large pool of blood on the floor.
The man was shot in the back of his head and died.
Were too late.
James scanned the scene and observed the blood that had dried up on the floor.
Then, he said, It seems hes been dead for a few hours.
Maxine observed the office surroundings and said with a frown, Could it be that he knew some inside information and was silenced?
