So, Jesse said without thinking, “Okay, in that case, I’ll prepare and fly there directly!”
Randal was also very meaningful and spoke, “Tell me before you take off, I’ll have the housekeeper pick you up at the airport!”
“Okay, Young Master Fei, let you take the trouble!”
Jesse thanked him and hung up the phone, then he immediately called his assistant and instructed,
“Tell the crew to get ready, I’m going to New York.”
The assistant tentatively pointed to Alan’s corpse and asked him in a low voice,
“Young master, what about the third young master’s afterlife rituals if we go to New York now?”
Jesse instructed, “Put Alan’s corpse in the funeral home for the time being,”
“In addition to blocking the news, don’t let anyone know about him after I go to New York,”
“You go to appease the families of those crew members, say that the ship met with an accident,”
“People have disappeared, give them a pension directly to shut them up.”
The assistant asked again, “Young master, what about the master and wife’s side? Should we tell them?”
“For now, it’s better not to.” Jesse shook his head and said,
“They don’t know exactly what I’m doing, so try not to drag them down in this matter,”
“And keep Alan’s affairs a secret from them for the time being.”
“If they ask, just say that Alan asked me for a sum of money and took some girls to Paris for a vacation,”
“So that they don’t go overboard and don’t bother.”
