Chapter 309 The Greater Good Jackson's delight was evident. "You're going to Kingbourne too?" "Yes. I'm sorry I waited so long to tell you, but I've found my biological family, and they live in Kingbourne," Wynter explained as she poured Jackson another cup of tea.
She added, "I'll introduce them to you after I've settled down in Kingbourne. We're also planning to set up a branch for the Empathy Clinic there." "Sounds like a solid plan to me," Jackson said with a grin. "You'll be able to reach more patients if you set up a branch in Kingbourne." Wynter clarified modestly, "It's Grandma's wish." Lucas grew even more impressed with Wynter. “Does that mean we'll be meeting in Kingbourne?" Wynter understood the implication within his words. "You mean you're heading back to Kingbourne too, Lucas?" "That's the plan, but it won't happen anytsoon," Lucas answered chuckling. He had no qualms divulging such information to Wynter.
"Originally, Mr. Munn Sneior and my family had plans forto leave Southdale in three years. They wantto go further south and see what I can do to fix the economy in Halsbury.
"Now that you've helpedcrack the case of Havenlight County, I can go back to Kingbourne in another six months, which is way sooner than expected." This alone was proof of how much help Wynter had been to Lucas. The incident at Havenlight County revealed the dark underbelly of Southdale and suggested that many influential parties were carrying out dirty work in secret.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince Lucas' inauguration, he had successfully restructured Southdale's economy and its people's welfare, not to mention uncovered the inhumane crimes in Paradise Village.
Those who had tried to pull his leg or manipulate the current social dynamics against him had failed to do so. To this end, Jackson was relieved, and he could think of no greater form of repayment on Lucas' part than his return to Kingbourne.
"The Keller family will likely extend their gratitude to you once you arrive in Kingbourne," Jackson remarked confidently.
Wynter took this information lightly as she chewed on her food. "As Lucas' junior, it won't doany good if he fares poorly in his position. This way, at least I'll prosper alongside him." Jackson guffawed. "You certainly know how to make a joke, Wynter!" Lucas grinned wholeheartedly. "Here's to you and your prosperous future, Wynter." The tcontinued to dine happily after that.
Lucas was starting to see why Jackson had taken such a strong liking to Wynter. She was young, but her wit and insight were unmatched.
It made Lucas want to be better. When he received a message from the Scotts, he did not ignore it as usual. Instead, he made small talk with them while concealing his intentions of investigating them.
After the meal, Jackson left in a Peugeot, an understated vehicle for a man who did not like flashy things. The entourage that followed him consisted of only a bodyguard and his driver.
Jackson glanced out the window at the place he had stayed at for two years. He remembered what a mess this town had been when he first arrived, which was why he had Lucas transferred here.
Now, he no longer had to worry about the citizens' welfare. At least they no longer had to pay an arm and a leg for basic healthcare.
Still, the greatest accomplishment he had witnessed during his stay here was the downfall of Paradise Village.

Jackson had cacross the heartbreaking news Dalton mentioned the other day, about how the most beautiful teacher in a small village had actually been a kidnapping victim who was sold into the village during her university years. Jackson believed that the public had sawareness about tragedies like these. Once the story of Paradise Village began to spread far and wide, the public would learn to reconsider their backward values.
"Mr. Munn Senior has always loved a good gof chess," Wynter mused to Lucas as she watched Jackson's black Peugeot fade into the distance.
Her eyes twinkled as she added, "I think he's been waiting for this day ever since he had Mr. Fisher bring you to the Empathy Clinic."
As her words sunk in, Lucas froze and turned to look at her in surprise. He quickly broke into a smile as he asked, "Are you not angry that Mr. Munn Senior used you as a pawn?"
"I chose to go to Paradise Village," Wynter said with a smirk. "I can't see the whole chess board like Mr Munn Senior can, but I'm more than willing to bechis pawn if it's for the greater good of this nation." Spin to Claim Your Surprise Reward!
