Daniel clenched his jaw, his face turning a bit cold. "Make him lose all his assets."

"Including the entire Bayers?" Fat Lawler inquired.

"

After a brief pause, Daniel shook his head. "Honestly, with my old ways, I might have gone that far. But now...' "Now, you can't bring yourself to do it?" Fat Lawler chuckled. "The Daniel I've known isn't usually this forgiving!" Daniel also managed a smile, but he couldn't help but think of someone with clear, innocent eyes.

This trip had been at Maisie's request. When she learned about Arya's disappearance, she became deeply concerned. Even though her marriage with Graham had ended, she had remained friends with Arya and genuinely cared about her well-being.

On the other hand, Daniel had his own reasons for embarking on this journey. Firstly, he did it for Maisie. Secondly, he wanted to understand why he was suddenly accused of kidnapping Arya when he had barely even met her.

"Fat Lawler, it's not about mercy," Daniel stated casually. "I just believe there are plenty of beautiful things in the world, and there's no need to get caught up in trivial matters. Let that kid face the consequences It should be sufficient. Besides, I have no grudges against the other members of the Bayers. There's no need to go to extremes with them."

"Hmm..." Fat Lawler took a sip of his tea. "Losing 750,000,000 dollars is a big blow, and Graham mortgaged all his assets to the bank. Once this comes to light, he'll be in a tough spot."

"Fat Lawler, I came here for another reason." Daniel stood up and bowed respectfully.

However, Fat Lawler waved his hand and smiled. He didn't say a word but motioned for Daniel to follow him. They strolled down a lengthy corridor and entered an elegantly decorated room on the side. The guard standing by the door stepped aside upon seeing the two men.

"Fat Lawler?" Daniel frowned.

"I know what you want to ask." Fat Lawler gestured toward the room. "See for yourself."

Daniel approached, still a bit skeptical. He peered through the glass and spotted Arya sleeping peacefully inside. He was taken aback and turned to Fat Lawler.

"Arya Bayer, the heiress to the Bayers," Fat Lawler explained matter-of-factly. "She's been here for the past two days."

"What... What's happening?" Daniel was perplexed.

Arya didn't seem to have suffered harm during her stay. Her complexion was healthy, and there were art supplies and a canvas nearby. She must have been tired from painting and dozed off.

"I encountered this girl two days ago," Fat Lawler explained with a serious expression. "It was a stormy night, and she collapsed near my casino. I brought her here and realized she had injuries, including a bruised lip like she had been assaulted."

"What?!"

"When she woke up, she told me that she had been attacked. She was planning to visit her mother at the sanatorium and didn't have any bodyguards with her. The attack occurred right there at the sanatorium Someone covered her head and beat her, and she lost consciousness."

Daniel's expression darkened. When he exchanged glances with Fat Lawler, they both reached the same conclusion in their hearts.
