Darcy was still digesting what his wife said. As a lawyer, Betsy must always defend the client who hired her, whether the client who paid her was right or wrong.
But Betsy is always careful when choosing clients. He did a little bit of research before really wanting to be a lawyer of his client. So, he took the offer from the client for granted. The majority of the offers he took were offers from clients who were on the right side.
“Is there a problem with Mr Claire that you are defending?” quick Darcy response.
Betsy did not answer. He rolled his pair of eyeballs. There are still Aroon and Jorell there, of course, it is not worth listening to by their children. It is not yet time for them to know about adult affairs.
“Aroon, Jorell, your food is up. Quickly go to school there is something I want to talk to your father,” said Betsy staring at two sons in turn.
Without speaking or asking, Jorell and Aroon left immediately. Usually his mother will talk so if there is something serious to say.
After the departure of Jorell and Aroon, Betsy resumed her conversation that had been cut off earlier.
“Fight Mr. Claire, Mr. Fox, shows evidence that Mr. Claire provided false financial transaction reports. Before I continue to be his lawyer, you help me do a small investigation to investigate the truth,” Betsy said at length.
“Darling, you know I'm not a detective anymore. So I don't have the power to do any diving.”
Jorell turned out to stop for a while, listening to their conversation.
Turns out Darcy's father was a detective once. Why is the office closed? Is there a serious problem?
“Kak, let's go. We're almost late!” Aroon shouted from outside, looking at his older brother who was still inside the house.
Without answering, Jorell immediately ran out, following his sister. They then walked together to the Florimont Institute.
Who are Mr Claire and Mr Fox? So what did you mean about the fake financial statements? Really, Betsy's words had left her in a state of curiosity. And keep on in his mind.

“Hey, what are you thinking, Jorell? You're back to daydreaming like always,” said Xavier in class.
“No. I'm not daydreaming, I'm just thinking about the problem that my mother is currently facing.” Jorell turned to look at Xavier sitting to his right, looking at him questioningly.
He did not like the look of his friend. The probing gaze was also a gaze with such great curiosity. Like stripping. But Jorell often felt so in front of Xavier.
There was nothing about him that Xavier did not know. Likewise with Xavier, Jorell even knows the secret of his friend that only known by himself.
“My mother is a lawyer and she is worried this time. Looks like he needs help. I want to help him,” explained Jorell.
“As a good boy, why don't you just help him? Moreover, you have a special watch now.” Xavier panned the watch on Jorell's right wrist.
Jorell understood what his friend meant by staring at his watch. He himself actually intended to use that watch as well. Although until now he has not been able to reassemble it. He was busy, busy studying. Learning material that is missing.
He had already promised himself to get better and improve on his grades that had been lacking, below the grade average, after the harsh insults Darcy had given him. He intends to change himself.
“Jorell, Xavier, you two chatted during class. Try one of you can anyone do this?” The teacher in front of the class suddenly just highlighted the two of them.
Of course Jorell and Xavier gasped in shock and went straight into silence. Really they are too carried away to forget the existence of a math teacher who is currently staring intently at them.
“You did it, Jorell. I can't work on that formula.” Spontaneous Xavier responded, after reading the matter written on the board.
“This, Mr. Alberto.” Jorell handed back the black marker to his math teacher, after answering questions from him.
Mr. Alberto stared at the blackboard after looking at and checking the answer from Jorell.
“Oh, did you study last night? Answer's right. Yes, you can sit back,” said Mr. Alberto astonished.
Usually Jorell can not answer the given questions. He also commented a faint smile as Jorell turned around and returned to his seat.
Not only was Xavier also surprised by it, but his classmates were also surprised. Jorell was able to do such a complex math problem.
“You must be cheating and using your watch to solve the problem, right?” accuse Xavier.
“What are you talking about? Of course not. I thought about it myself using this.” Jorell pointed at his head.

At first glance Jorell stared at the clock hanging on the wall of his room.
“Mother really came home late,” murmured. Just past the hour Betsy usually comes home.
“Do I have to use this clock now?” Jorell glanced at the watch on his right wrist. “Alright, I want to help mom.”
Jorell then turned his watch back three days. The clock rotates backwards to the time it is headed. Until the clock stopped beating, Jorell walked out of the room.
“My time is not long. Until this clock ticks again then I will go back to the real time.”
Jorell went into Betsy's room, which was wide open. Even her mother was still in the room. He waited until his mother left the room.
“Now mom is out, so, I can check the file.”
Jorell operated on his mother's room. Especially the nightstand and all the drawers there.
“Where did mom put the file? Hopefully it's still at home.”
At the moment Betsy is only out for breakfast not to go to work. So, Jorell's time wasn't long to find the file.
“Is this the file?” After a long search, Jorell finally found a neatly arranged file in a map.
Right away, he took the file. He read it quickly, not forgetting he photographed each file using the phone he carried.
There were footsteps coming in, Jorell quickly returned the file to its original place.
“Almost just.” Right after he returned and tidied up the documents, Betsy went into the room.
He took his briefcase and the documents.
“Mommy will definitely leave for work. I'd better follow him to find some additional information. And what really happened?”
Jorell walked tailing behind Betsy, out of the room.
