Chapter 470 BK 91%

Derrick received a call from his subordinate. "It's done. The police will hold a press conference. They will officially

announce. the reopening of the missing persons case of Zilvia Donovan.

"They will also publicize sundisclosed information and gather clues about Zilvia from the public."

Derrick was satisfied with this. "Thanks."

His subordinate would use this opportunity to insinuate to the public that the truth was that the Donovan family

had colluded with outsiders to secretly abandon Zilvia,

Of course, they would not state who the Donovan family's "culprit was. Anyone would be possible. They wanted

the netizens to suspect all of them.

After hanging up the call, Derrick sat and picked up his cup of coffee. He took a sip, closed his eyes, and savored

its taste.

At this moment, his assistant quietly walked into the study and said respectfully, "Mr. Powell, the Trevor family

has sent you an invitation

Derrick opened his eyes. "Which Trevor family?"

There was no prestigious family in Dichester with the last nTrevor.

The assistant said, "It's the Trevor family from the Western Military Base."

Derrick sat up slightly. "We have never interacted with them before. Why did they suddenly sendan

invitation? What kind of invitation is it?"

The assistant respectfully handed over a white wedding invitation with gold embossing. "I've read it. It's the

wedding invitation of Mr. Trevor's only granddaughter, General Trevor, and Brandon Donovan. The wedding is set

for tomorrow. "The one who delivered the invitation said he con a military plane just to hand this to you. He

will also wait for your reply. Sir, will you go?"

The assistant paused before saying, "This matter is a little strange. I've asked around.

"Other than the people in the military and the Donovan family, only you and Mr. Graham received the invitation.

| don't know what the Trevor and Donovan families mean by this."

Derrick had personally contacted his old subordinates in West End to deal with the Donovan family instead of

using the people around him. Thus, this assistant did not know how Derrick felt toward the Donovan family.

"The Trevor and Donovan families are making a marriage alliance?" Derrick was very surprised. He took the

invitation and read it carefully.

After that, he closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. "The Donovan family is really capable. One of them hooked

up with the Graham family, and the other with the Trevor family."

The Graham family was rich while the Trevor family had power. Moreover, it was military might. He thought, "The

Donovan family really has it all.

After he finished, he did not speak for a long time. He did not even open his eyes.

"The assistant waited a long tbefore saying cautiously, "Mr. Powell, the Trevor family's subordinate is still

waiting for your reply."

Derrick slowly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with deep helplessness. "Tell him | will attend the wedding.

Chapter 470

The Trevor family had gone out of the way to send him this invitation to tell him that they were on the Donovan

family's side.

By attending the wedding, it would mean Derrick did not want go against the Trevor family. To put it bluntly, he

was giving in.

If he refused to attend, it meant he was going against the Trevor family. The Trevor family would take action

against the Powell family then.

Derrick was old and knew how to weigh the pros and cons. Matthew was held in check by his family so there was

no need for the Powell family to deal with him.

The Donovan family had Priscilla backing them up. In that case the Powell family was considered almost equal to

the Donovan family but with a slight advantage. However, now that the Donovan family was making a marriage

alliance with the Trevor family, the scales were tipped in favor of the Donovan family.

If the Powell family insisted on going against the Donovan family, Anabel wouldn't be the only one who had to be

sacrificed.

The assistant nodded. "Okay, I'll inform the Trevor family's subordinate now,"

After the assistant left, Derrick was barely able to pull himself together. He picked up his phone and called his old

subordinate at West End. "Sorry to trouble you, but can you tell the police not to reopen the Zilvia case?" That

afternoon, the official Twitter account of the Kitmore City police released a post.

It stated: [We have received numerous calls from the public asking if the police will reopen the missing persons

case of Zilvia Donovan, Right now, the police do not have any more clues about the case and will not consider

launching a full investigation.] It added: [Furthermore, the case is still open and the police have never given up

on investigating it. If the public has any new leads, they are welcto inform the police immediately.]

Joy saw the post right away and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At the very least, she did not have to take the

risk of facing the Donovan family directly.

After sthought, she sent a secret email to activate the substitute plan immediately.

The next morning, Brandon and Nicolette, dressed in civilian clothes and wearing masks, were escorted by the

Donovan family to the city hall. They got out of the car and walked into the marriage registration hall together.

To avoid attracting the attention of passersby, the Donovan family did not go in and waited quietly in the cr

More than an hour later, Brandon and Nicolette walked out with their new marriage license. They got into the

Donovan family's car and headed to Vission Resort together.

After the duo ate in the hotel, they showered and changed. They put on makeup and changed into their wedding

attire before showing up at the wedding venue.

Although less than a hundred people attended the wedding, all of them were remarkable and significant.

When Derrick arrived at the wedding, he realized that other than the Donovan family, the rest were all military

officials. Moreover, at least a dozen generals were in attendance. Sat, Nov 30

From this, one could see the Trevor family's status in the army. Derrick also knew that this was what the Trevor

family wanted him to see.

Although the Powell family had a grudge against the Donovan family, the Donovan family was still very polite to

him. They treated him as a distinguished guest and let him sit with Cade, Fiona, Greg, and the others.

The first thing he did when he returned to Dichester was to see Anabel. He said, "You'll hold a press conference

tomorrow and do as Athena says.

"You'll publicly admit your mistake and clearly state that the Powell family didn't know what you did. You will

apologize to the Donovan family for kidnapping them purely out of jealousy

"As for those two videos, you must apologize to the entire country. You can say that you've been badly

He added, "Only by sacrificing you and a useless piece of trash can we clear the Powell family of responsibility.

Otherwise, we will be dragged down by your narrow-mindedness."
