Jiang Yi couldn't help but sneer inwardly upon hearing this.
He hadn't expected Jiang Tian to hatch such a plan.
Time continued to tick by, and an hour quickly passed.
The butler walked to the front courtyard with a grave expression.
"Have you found the mole?" Jiang Tian asked.
"Reporting to young master, the mole has not been found, but several problematic individuals have been identified. The matter is serious, and I had to report it personally!"
Hearing this, Jiang Tian said coldly, "Are you joking with me? You haven't found the mole? No matter how big the matter, it's not as big as the mole issue!"
The butler's face showed helplessness.
"The mole must be among these assassins. You definitely didn't investigate thoroughly. Investigate again!" Jiang Tian said angrily.
"Yes!" The butler responded, then turned to walk towards the back courtyard.
"Wait!" Jiang Tian called out to the butler and asked, "You just said you found out some major issues. What exactly did you find out?"
"I dare not say. If I say it, young master, you will go crazy with anger!" The butler looked helpless.
"I, Jiang Tian, am not that fragile. If I can't handle it, how can I achieve great things?"
"Speak, what is it? I won't blame you when you tell me!" Jiang Tian said to the butler.
The butler showed hesitation on his face and stammered for a long time, unable to utter a word.
"Speak quickly!" Jiang Tian roared.
The butler was startled and quickly said, "Young madam Du Yue is having an affair with Captain Pike!"
"What? You're talking nonsense! Du Yue loves me so much, how could she betray me with someone else?"
"Besides, Pike is the captain of the assassins, and he is loyal to me. He would never covet my woman. You must be mistaken. Bring me Pike's phone. I want to see for myself what's going on!" Jiang Tian did not believe it at all.
"Yes!" The butler gave a wry smile and walked towards the back courtyard.
At this moment, Pike, standing among the crowd, had beads of sweat on his forehead and could barely stand still, but he maintained a semblance of calmness.
"Pike, come forward!" Jiang Tian called out to a tall, eagle-country man in the crowd.
"Yes!" Pike responded and walked straight over, stopping about three meters away from Jiang Tian.
"I know you are loyal to me!"
"You would never do such a thing. I believe you. After this is cleared up, I will definitely restore your innocence!" Jiang Tian said.
"Thank you, young master!" Pike nodded quickly.
Jiang Tian took a sip of tea and then called Du Yue to the front courtyard.
A few minutes later, a woman dressed sexy and hot, exuding charm, walked in smiling and sat down in Jiang Tian's arms.
"Slurp!" Du Yue kissed Jiang Tian and then asked gently, "I've already rested, why did you call me to the front courtyard? I won't be able to sleep well tonight for my beauty sleep!" Du Yue sounded a bit annoyed.
"It's not a big deal. It's just that the butler said he found out you were having an affair with Pike. I just wanted to verify it with you. It's nothing major!" Jiang Tian said with a smile.
Du Yue was stunned when she heard this, and then tears began to well up in her eyes, looking wronged.
"Jiang Tian, you've gone too far!"
"I love you so much, and I even gave birth to twins for you. You suspect me of having an affair? You're simply a scoundrel!" Du Yue started scolding while crying.
"Don't be angry!"
"You are the woman I love most. How could I possibly suspect you? I called you here just to shut the butler up!"
"If your innocence isn't proven, many people will gossip behind your back!" Jiang Tian quickly comforted her.
"You scoundrel!" Du Yue's tears stopped, and she gave Jiang Tian a sidelong glance.
Jiang Yi couldn't help but laugh when he saw this. Jiang Tian, being in the midst of it, didn't notice anything amiss. However, Jiang Yi, as an observer, could clearly see that the looks exchanged between Du Yue and Pike were not quite right. Jiang Yi guessed that Du Yue and Pike were likely having a genuine affair. Tonight, there would surely be a good show!
Just then, the butler walked over with Pike's phone. Seeing Du Yue, he quickly greeted her, "Young madam!"
"Don't call me young madam!"
"Have you lost your mind? How dare you accuse me and Pike of having an affair? It's one thing to ruin my reputation, but you can't ruin my husband's reputation. My husband is the eldest young master of the Jiang family!"
"Tonight, you must explain yourself clearly, or I'm not done with you!" Du Yue directly started scolding the butler.
The butler remained silent.
"Your silence proves your guilt!" Du Yue said to the butler, then turned to Jiang Tian with a wronged expression.
"Husband, the butler has gone too far. You must punish him severely and drive him out of the castle!" Jiang Tian quickly said to appease Du Yue.
"I know. It must be because his son asked me for an advance on his salary yesterday, and I refused him, so he's holding a grudge and framed me today!" Du Yue cried, looking heartbreakingly beautiful.
"Don't cry. Rest assured, I will give you an explanation. If the butler really framed you, I will never forgive him!" Jiang Tian said.
Hearing this, Du Yue finally stopped crying.
"Butler, you've truly disappointed me!"
"I trusted you so much, how could you frame Du Yue? Now that things have escalated to this point, how am I supposed to salvage this?" Jiang Tian scolded the butler.
Jiang Tian chose to believe Du Yue and not the butler.
"Young master, I have evidence here. If you don't believe me, you'll know after reading the chat records on Pike's phone!"
"The chat records are simply outrageous. These are all the evidence!" The butler said and placed Pike's phone on the table.
Although Jiang Tian didn't believe it, he still picked up Pike's phone.
When he saw the chat records, Jiang Tian's eyes immediately turned red, and his body trembled with anger.
The chat records between Pike and Du Yue on Pike's phone were truly scandalous. Their conversations were extremely ambiguous, with Pike directly referring to Du Yue as "my dear Little Yue Yue." Du Yue, in turn, called Pike "Little Pipipi." There were even records of Du Yue arranging to meet Pike in her room for intimate encounters.
Even someone as foolish as Jiang Tian could see that Du Yue was indeed having an affair with Pike, and it wasn't just once. They had clearly been involved for several years!
Jiang Tian was so enraged that he spat blood on the spot. He had called Du Yue to the front courtyard intending to clear her name. To his surprise, it only served to confirm Du Yue's infidelity, and both Du Yue and Pike were people he trusted the most.
"Bitch!" Jiang Tian raised his hand and slapped Du Yue.
