Chapter 1163 A request from Zoe
Some questions are destined to have no answers. Rachel's antisocial personality disorder probably does not come from family or surrounding environmental factors. It is most likely a congenital cause, because her mother Valerie is a professional psychologist herself.
Faced with this heartbroken husband and father, Jack chose to remain silent.
When facing this kind of problem, it is completely meaningless to discuss whether human nature is inherently evil or human nature is good. As for the so-called treatment, if staying in a mental hospital for a lifetime can be considered a kind of treatment, then maybe it is.
Originally, Jack was a little worried that the more emotional Jiejie and Clay in the group might find it difficult to adjust their emotions for a while.
But fortunately, everyone has experienced more now. In the evening, Jubal found a bar and drank lemonade by himself, but he treated everyone to the first round of drinks.
After some emotion, everyone quickly adjusted their mood and stopped talking about the previous case.
After all, everyone is a professional detective, has received basic training, and knows how dangerous it is to project one's own emotions into the case.
Everyone began to discuss what kind of relaxation program they would have when they got back, whether it was a dinner party or simply asking Aubrey to organize a yacht party.
Jane Banner has been harassing Jack with her resentful eyes. Under the strict guard of Hannah and Jiejie, she can only do this one step.
Feeling the teasing and gossipy looks from his friends, Jack felt a little secretly happy because of his embarrassment.
After all, the cultural environment is different, and being favored by many beauties is a reflection of one's own charm.
Feeling the vibration in his pocket, Jack took out his phone and turned on the screen. To his surprise, he discovered that it was a call from a certain senator.
Although among a certain person's lovers, Zoe seems to be the one who spends the most time away from him, but as the first woman after Jack's time travel, Ms. Senator is always the one with the deepest bond with him.
This bond is not just emotional, but also includes many aspects. Even from the most secular perspective, the interests of the two are closely connected.
Therefore, Zoe has always maintained a detached status among Jack's lovers. Although she is not a big woman, even Jiejie will not show any jealousy in front of her. Of course, it is another time in private. thing.
As a smart woman, Zoe has always maintained a certain sense of existence among Jack and even those close friends around him.
When Clay's son was born, Stella, who was still lying in the hospital bed, received a beautiful bouquet of flowers and greeting cards.
The old rookie John was sent to Detroit because he offended the union chairman and was sent to Detroit. If Jack hadn't happened to accompany him along the way, something would have almost happened.
Soon after, the chairman named Landon Briggs was impeached and stepped down without even a chance to make a decent exit. He then fell into endless lawsuits and saw that he might even lose his pension. Can't keep it.
As for the contact with Jack, they are almost constant every day. In addition to the sweet phone calls, no matter how busy the Senator is, daily greeting text messages are also indispensable.
Jack naturally understands how serious Zoe is in managing their relationship. In order to live up to the beauty's affection, he also treats Zoe with the same serious attitude.
Although Jack was really not interested in politics, he would still listen patiently to Zoe on the phone complaining about how stupid a certain committee chairman was, and would intersperse some of his own opinions when appropriate. Thanks to the fact that he finally received a red flag education in his previous life, and the political genes engraved in the bones of some Siris men, Jack didn't have to worry about the lack of a common language between himself and Zoe.
So the way the two got along naturally became a kind of old married couple. Jack knew Zoe's daily whereabouts. Correspondingly, Zoe also knew exactly where Jack was working on and what cases he was working on recently.
But usually, when Jack is handling a case, Zoe will not take the initiative to call him. After all, the gentle big sister is always so considerate.
That's why he was slightly surprised when he received the call at this moment.
After saying hello to everyone in the bar who was already tipsy, Jack walked outside the door and answered the phone, "Sweetheart, what's the matter?"
"Jack, is the Richmond case over? Are you interested in a trip to Dallas?"
As soon as he heard Zoe calling him, Jack knew that it was business, and he coughed quickly to correct his attitude, "I am willing to serve you, Ms. Anderson."
Zoe's chuckle came from the other side of the phone, obviously it was just a joke.
"Okay, dear, here it is, the Attorney General of Texas sent me a request for help. There is a case that may need the help of a professional, so I thought of you."
"What case? The matter here in Richmond is over. My team and I can leave at any time." Jack walked to the street corner away from the crowd and lit a cigar for himself.

"Prosecutor Patrick Jackson will call you later. He hopes that you can go to Dallas alone to understand the relevant details before making a decision. This case is a bit troublesome and involves some local upper-class people. I only know this at the moment."
Seemingly worried that Jack would have concerns, Zoe added, "But you don't have to consider any political factors. Leave all the problems to me. You just need to focus on the case."
This was the first time that his beautiful senator had asked him for "help" on a specific case since he entered politics, so it was naturally impossible for Jack to refuse.
After some sweet talk, the two ended the call. After returning to the bar to inform everyone, the others naturally had nothing to say. After all, this was not the first time someone had taken on a mission alone.
Jane Banner's eyes lit up, and a slightly excited blush appeared on her pretty face, "I just want to go back to Austin"
——
As the capital city of Texas, Austin is nearly 300 kilometers away from Dallas. Jane's "drop-in" trip made Hannah and Jiejie somewhat dissatisfied.
But after all, Jack was going to do business for Zoe, so it was naturally impossible for the two of them to say anything, and the matter passed away with a cute roll of the eyes.
Jack booked a red-eye flight to Dallas overnight. After a rest, he put Jane, who had successfully "stealed", on the flight to Austin. In the evening, he met a short, stocky man who looked like a man in a hotel called Kotler. Patrick Jackson, more cowboy than attorney general.
After a brief introduction, although he was a little surprised by the youth of the FBI agent in front of him, Attorney General Jackson took the initiative to guide him.
"Nice to meet you, Agent Tavole. Do you remember the name Hoyt Asift?"
