Chapter 1671:
Everyone recognized this transparent excuse for what it was—a deliberate attempt to distance himself from
whatever they might uncover.
Once alone, Corrine and Jules focused their attention on the surveillance monitor, scrutinizing each frame.
The footage captured every guest's arrival in perfect clarity until, moments before the wedding ceremony began,
an unfamiliar figure stepped into view.
This visitor wasn’t Claude, nor any of his known associates.
He placed a gift down and turned to leave.
As he retreated, he hesitated briefly, pivoting to face the camera with an enigmatic smile playing across his lips.
“This is nothing short of deliberate provocation!” Jules hissed through clenched teeth.
They had counted on someone reviewing the surveillance footage.
The video continued, showing Corrine engaged in a brief conversation with Zeke, followed by the scene where
she grasped Callie by the neck. Witnessing Callie’s foolish behavior toward Corrine, Jules sneered with contempt.
“What an absolute idiot.”

“Are we really just going to let Callie’s behavior slide?” Jules questioned, lifting his eyes to meet Corrine’s.
Corrine shifted her gaze from the monitor to Jules. “What options do we have?”

Regardless of the circumstances, Callie was still Chelsea's niece. Creating conflict would only put Chelsea in an
uncomfortable position.
Corrine had always valued Chelsea’s kindness, which explained her decision to overlook Callie’s actions this
time.
At her words, Jules fell silent, regarding her with an inscrutable, penetrating look.
Uncertain of Jules’ thoughts, Corrine returned her attention to the screen and mused, “Should we trace his
license plate number?” Perhaps they could pinpoint Claude’s whereabouts by tracking the messengers driving
route.
Whether Claude had returned to target the Ford family or to exact revenge on Nate, locating him quickly was
imperative.
Jules’ fingers flew across the keyboard, his expression showing no surprise at the outcome. “The license plate is
counterfeit.”
They couldn't uncover any information about the vehicle or its owner.
