"Other than you, Sir, there weren't any other Finch members at the club. However… Mr. Jack is a regular at the club."
Jack? He was there at the performance too.
"Where is he?" Jonathan's gaze turned cold.
Leonard had also investigated Jack's whereabouts for the past few days.
"He's been on boat parties with models and stars, like another normal day. There's nothing unusual in his activities. However, he had not visited the club once since the celebration party. It's odd as it's inconsistent with his previous frequency."
There had to be a reason for that then.
Jonathan mumbled to himself for a while, then instructed Leonard, "Keep an eye on him. Also, I remember Uncle Yosef managed the club last time."
The club was related to Yosef's family, which meant they could be involved with Yvonne's incident. No matter what, he swore to give Rose an explanation.
After Rose descended from the rooftop, the first thing she did was contact Miles to investigate the suspects from the Finch family who were related to the party. The next morning, she received updates from him.
"That club used to be managed by Yosef Finch, and his son, Jack, is a regular there. Speaking of Jack, he's mediocre, yet gutsy. And he's a womanizer too. He might very well have a hand in Ms. Spencer's incident."
Jack Finch was a name foreign to Rose. Regardless, she would find out everything about him. She needed a place to start.
As if seen through her intention, he maintained his seriousness over the phone. "Rosie, I don't support your decision to get involved. Although Yosef and his family are under Jonathan's oppression, they shouldn't be underestimated. I'm worried that you'd…"
Miles remained silent on the other side of the line. Although Rose didn't outright state her plan, he knew what she was thinking. Still, it was undeniable that the Finches were not to be underestimated.
"I'll help you, but you must promise me you'll go through your plans with me first. I don't want you in any form of danger." If he couldn't stop her, he could only protect her.
But… When Miles thought of Jonathan, he hesitated briefly and spoke, "Jonathan was at the club that night."
"It wasn't him!"
Rose's resolute denial affected Miles, but he soon regained his composure. "I know he won't hurt your friend. It's just that… He left the club during the party and went to a hotel.
"It was only the next morning that he left. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence, but the Maizes were at the hotel that morning too."
