Go After My Ex-wife
Chapter 607 Interrogating Ezrah

"Ezrah was kneeling in the corner with his hands tied behind his back. His clothes were in disar Rhys, and his face was livid. He was in a mess. It was visible that Blake and Luca had tortured him." Calvin walked over and stopped right in front of him.

Ezrah looked up and stared at him with high vigilance.

"Mr. Haris, can you tell who I am? Calvin asked in a neutral tone. He had a faint smile at the corner of his lips."

You are... Ezrah asked in fear as he inspected Calvin's face carefully.

"The smile on Calvin's face faded away and was soon replaced by a sharp gaze. His gaze wandered on Ezrah's body as he smirked, and said in a neutral yet domineering tone, """Mr. Haris, it's okay if you don't know me, but I do know you very well. I'd advise you to cooperate with me today and answer all of my questions. It's for our own interests."

"The young man standing in front of him seemed noble, instead of looking like a street punk. In fact, when Blake and Luca were interrogating him, Ezrah already could tell that he hadn't been kidnapped by gangsters. From the way they were interrogating him, he knew that they weren't doing that for money, and were trying to get dirt on Yadriel through him. Ezrah was even more terrified of that."

"If Ezrah told them about Yadriel's crime, then Yadriel would neither let Ezrah nor his family get away from that. Ezrah knew that very clearly. So, he would rather keep his mouth shut than to challenge Yadriel." Do you really know who I am? I'm working for the government. Do you know what consequences you'll face for kidnapping me? Ezrah yelled. He had to act tough in this situation.

"Is that so? Calvin smiled. He still maintained his expression as he said, ""Ezrah, you know that arms trafficking is a huge crime, and you're Yadriel's subordinate. Every crime he committed, you were there to help him. Even if I were to execute you today and hand over all the evidence against you, I'd only receive credit for what I did. The superiors will not question my actions."""""

Calvin smiled mockingly as he rolled up his sleeves and bent down to reach Ezrah at eye level.

You are Calvin Harvey from A City? Ezrah asked in shock as he finally got to see Calvin's face clearly through his swollen eyes.

"Yes, indeed. What's wrong? Could it be that you have participated in Yadriel's plot against me? Calvin nodded as he lit up a cigarette. He took a puff before stuffing the cigarette in Ezrah's mouth." "Ezrah took a few violent puffs, and it was already half of the cigarette. He was in a clearer state of mind after smoking the cigarette."

"Tell me, what in the world do you want? Ezrah took another puff before spitting out the cigarette butt and asked in a vile manner."

"Calvin stared at him with his neutral expression and said coldly, "It's simple. Just tell me everything you know about Yadriel, and I can guarantee that you'll be alive. Otherwise, you and your family will be facing the disciplinary committee, and you know very well what that would mean for your future.""""

Ezrah looked at Calvin with his eyes wide open.

"Calvin calmly took out a stack of documents from his briefcase, and waved them in front of Ezrah as he said, """Let's get to the point. These documents here are evidence of part of your crimes. If you aren't willing to cooperate with me, then I'll hand them over to the disciplinary committee later today. It will take less than an hour for them to run a thorough inspection on your entire family. So, tell me, what lies in your future if something goes wrong?"""""

Calvin deliberately paused for a moment and looked at Ezrah.

Ezrah was trying his best to figure out what the stack of documents in Calvin's hands was. His face slowly turned pale and ashened.

"It's very simple. At such a critical period, if something goes wrong, then do you think Yadriel will save you? No. He will instead cut you off or even kill you off if it means he gets out of this safely. Calvin continued to cut to the chase as he said, """Why don't you think about it for a second? Yadriel might kill you if you betRhys him, but that will take at least a couple of days. As of now, he isn't aware that I've captured you. If you choose not to betRhys him, then with you still as my captive, releasing you or not, I will hand over evidence of your bribery. You will still face the consequences of Yadriel trying to kill you or even your family. Therefore, what if you work with me instead?""""

Calvin paused and looked at Ezrah with his sharp gaze.

"Ezrah's face was as pale as death, but he was also listening carefully."

"If you cooperate with me, as long as you can provide me with evidence against Yadriel, then we can take him down immediately. He will no longer be a threat to you. As for you, your sentence will be reduced, as you'll be testifying against Yadriel, and the most you get will be 10 years in prison. You get to keep your family safe. If you behave well in prison, then I will also try my best to bail you out in advance. I have weighed out the two options for you. Try to think about it. I'll give you an hour. Ask my men for me once you've made up your mind. They'll be guarding outside. Calvin analyzed in detail for him before standing up. He glanced coldly at Ezrah and turned around to leave."

"Also, let me make this clear. Although I'm a businessman, I value integrity and keep to my word. Otherwise, the Harvey Group will not reach its status as it is today. I don't always make promises, but when I do, I make sure I can fulfil them. For me to say this much to you today, I'm trying to save you. It doesn't mean that I'm a good-tempered person just because I'm patient enough to explain things to you. If you cross the line, then I'll make sure you know that I'm not someone you can mess with."

"With that, Calvin walked out."

There was a deathly stillness in the air as Ezrah slumped down on the ground.

"In front of the dark floor-to-ceiling windows, Calvin was staring into the distance. He was thinking of Belle."

"Young Master Harvey, are you certain that he will give in? Luqman asked as he walked in and sounded less than confident."

Calvin turned around in silence as he put on a faint smile.

"Ezrah is a smart man. He knows what he should do, and he'll give in, Calvin said calmly, """I just don't know how much he knows about Yadriel. Although he is Yadriel's subordinate, I doubt Yadriel will reveal something as confidential as the arms trafficking deal to Ezrah, especially when he is such a cunning politician. He has always been careful, but we should still get whatever we can out of Ezrah, just to stop him for the time being."""""

"That makes sense, Luqman chimed in even though he wasn't confident about that either."

An hour later.

Luca came over.

"Mr. Harvey, Ezrah is willing to confess, Luca said with slight excitement."

Calvin and Luqman glanced at each other and nodded.

Another two hours passed.

"Calvin sat on the couch, looking a little tired as he rubbed his temples, shutting his eyes."

"Thank you for your hard work, Young Master Harvey. Luqman handed him a hot towel and thanked him gently."

Calvin accepted the hot towel and wiped his face.

"Young Master Harvey, it is indeed as you predicted. He doesn't know about the arms trafficking deal, but he did participate in money laundering. This is a useful hint. Luqman nodded in recognition." Calvin wiped his hands and put the towel away.

"Mr. Wood, we don't know the origin of the two amounts worth billions of dollars mentioned by Ezrah. Can we manage to stop Yadriel with this? Calvin looked up and asked in a serious tone." "Luqman pondered for a moment before saying, """I will send someone to hand him over to the disciplinary committee this instant. If they were to start the auditing process, then it will definitely impact him. We should make use of the opportunity and start looking for evidence on his arms trafficking deal if we want to take him down with this, once and for all."""

Calvin nodded in silence.

Luqman made a phone call after sorting out the information they obtained.

"Soon, a secretary walked in and took the briefcase before leaving."

"Mr. Wood, what do you think about this? I'll use my connection and get you some votes, so that you can at least get even with him. This will slow him down as he will have to face another round of the election. He will have concerns with his funding, and to get more funding, he will have to close the arms trafficking deal as soon as possible. By then, we will get the evidence we want, Calvin said with his low voice."

"Hearing this, Luqman smiled bitterly and said, """Young Master Harvey, it's already too late even if you ask the entire Harvey Group to vote for me. He is way beyond me. I will only put you all through the trouble for nothing."

Luqman seemed slightly sad after saying that.

"However, Calvin smiled in disagreement and said," Mr. Wood, I think we still have a shot at this."'"'"

What do you mean? Luqman looked up in astonishment.

"Well, there's someone else you can look for. With his help, I think half of Yadriel's votes will be gone. It'd be a critical hit to him, Calvin said with great confidence."

Who is it? Luqman's interest was piqued.

"Brooklyn Cole, Calvin uttered, word by word, with a smile."

Luqman was startled for a while before shaking his head in sorrow.

"Young Master Harvey, Yadriel is Brooklyn's disciple. Meanwhile, I have nothing in relation to Brooklyn. It won't make sense for Brooklyn to support me, Luqman said. It sounded impossible to him. Luqman knew he wasn't capable enough to get Brooklyn's attention, let alone his support."

"However, to Luqman's surprise, Calvin burst into laughter.

"1

"Calvin leaned slightly forward and said, """'Mr. Wood, as far as I know, Brooklyn has not intervened in Yadriel's election so far. He did not help Yadriel either. Yadriel, on the other hand, has asked to visit him several times, but Brooklyn has not entertained him at all. Brooklyn didn't make any promises to Yadriel, which is why I think this sounds like an opportunity for you."

"Upon hearing this, Luqman's eyes lit up."

"But, Young Master Harvey, if I ask to meet Brooklyn now, then I doubt he will want to see me. Moreover, what do I have with me to get his attention? Luqman was still not confident enough." Calvin sighed with a smile and did not say anything in return.

"At that moment, Luqman's phone rang. He stepped aside for the phone call."

Blake entered from the outside.
