Connor's eyes flashed with surprise when he saw the names and their introductions in Varga's notebook. He had just told Varga yesterday that he wanted to find a detective to investigate the Ferguson Family. Now, Varga had given him the names of these detectives. Varga's actions seemed to be too efficient!
Varga seemed to have noticed Connor's surprise and smiled at him. Without waiting for Connor to ask, he took the initiative to ask, "Connor, have you heard of the Fulham Detective Agency?"
When he heard Varga mention the name "Fulham Detective Agency", Connor seemed to have thought of something and looked at Varga with a strange expression. Connor Ferguson had lived in Flosinone when he was young, but he didn't know much about detective agencies. However, the name "Fulham Detective Agency" was like thunder to Connor Ferguson's ears!
When Connor Ferguson was 13 years old, his second uncle, Warrent Ferguson, found a mistress outside. This wasn't a big deal for nobles, and everyone turned a blind eye to it. Some noble couples even had lovers, and no one interfered with each other. However, the problem was that this mistress gave birth to an illegitimate child for Connor's uncle. Warrent Ferguson liked this illegitimate child so much that he secretly transferred some of his personal wealth to this illegitimate child.
This matter was found out by Warrent Ferguson's legal wife, Connor's second aunt, Kelly Fabian, who was born in the noble Fabian Family. In fact, Kelly Fabian was already aware of the fact that Warrent Ferguson had a mistress and an illegitimate child, but she just didn't mention it.
However, the fact that Warrent Ferguson secretly transferred his wealth to his illegitimate child crossed Kelly Fabian's bottom line. She and Warrent Ferguson had an only son, Kevin Ferguson. According to the Empire's inheritance laws, the inheritance rights of illegitimate children were not protected by the law. Warrent Ferguson's wealth and title had to be inherited by Kevin Ferguson.
Now that Warrent Ferguson secretly transferred his wealth to his illegitimate child, it was undoubtedly harming the interests of his and Kelly Fabian's son, Kevin Ferguson. Therefore, as his mother, Kelly Fabian didn't agree to it. However, Kelly Fabian was from a noble family and had seen the world. She didn't block the door of the mistress's house and beat her up like a shrew on the street!
Kelly Fabian hired a detective agency and thoroughly investigated the matter of Warrent Ferguson transferring his wealth to his illegitimate child as well as Warrent Ferguson's tax evasion. Then, during a family meeting of the Ferguson Family, she suddenly threw a tantrum and handed all the evidence she had to Connor's father, the head of the Ferguson Family, Old Ferguson. She even threatened that if Old Ferguson didn't handle this matter properly, she would place justice before family and expose everything. Based on the evidence she had of Warrent Ferguson's tax evasion, even if he spent money to get someone to mediate the matter, he would be jailed for at least a few years.
Originally, this matter was Warren Ferguson's own family affair. However, once this matter was made public, it would affect the Ferguson Family's already poor reputation. Therefore, Connor's father, Old Ferguson, had no choice but to cut the Gordian knot. With his authority as the head of the Ferguson Family, he forced Warren Ferguson to recover the assets that he had transferred to his illegitimate son. He also made a will and published it in the newspapers, telling everyone that after Warren Ferguson's death, all of his assets would be inherited by his and Kelly Fabian's only son, Kevin Ferguson. Only then did this matter come to an end.
The key to this matter was the detective agency that helped Connor's second aunt, Kelly Fabian, obtain the evidence. It was the biggest detective agency in Flosinone, Fulham Detective Agency. Therefore, Connor Ferguson was deeply affected by this detective agency. When he was still young, he was deeply afraid of finding a mistress, which was a common thing among the nobles.
"I disguised myself and went to a detective agency in Flosinone called Fulham Detective Agency today. It's said to be the biggest detective agency in Flosinone!" Although he didn't understand why Connor would have such a strange expression when he mentioned Fulham Detective Agency, Varga continued, "That's right.
Connor glanced at Varga. He couldn't help but think of Marguerite. He glanced at Varga and asked, "Varga, why did you go there?"
"Connor, didn't you say you wanted to find a detective to investigate the Ferguson family? I went there and pretended to be investigating my husband's affair. I used an excuse to get a detective there and searched his soul. That's how I got the information! "Varga said proudly to Connor.
Connor felt awkward when he heard Varga say that she was investigating her husband's affair. Varga didn't seem to notice Connor's awkwardness. On the contrary, she thought that Connor was worried that her whereabouts would be exposed because she searched his soul. In order to dispel Connor's doubts, she carefully explained to Connor.
"Don't worry, Connor. Although I'm not a spirit type Magus like you, I've already fed that detective a special potion before I searched his soul. That's why my soul search didn't cause him to die or suffer any obvious injuries. He won't remember my existence either. He'll only think that he caught a cold!"
"Okay! Varga, I'm not worried about you! " Connor quickly adjusted himself when he saw that Varga didn't notice his abnormality. He nodded to Varga and said,
"Then you take a good look at the detective's information. I'm going to refine some potions tonight. You can rest by yourself!" Varga gently kissed Connor's forehead and instructed him with a smile.
Connor shrugged and said, "I plan to spy on my family at night in three days, so I'm going to hurry up and refine the eavesdropping equipment tonight!"
After exchanging a few more intimate words, Varga walked to the room next door and prepared to refine the potions. However, she seemed to have thought of something when she walked to the door of the room. She stopped and hesitated.
