Chapter 490


    After a pause, I continued, "You didn''t mind even when Matthew refused to hand Zimmer


    Corporations t o you, but even so, you didn''t leave Zimmer Corporations. The only reason you''re


    anxious to get Zimmer Corporations is that you''re afraid that the rotten apples in the Zimmers will


    bring the corporation down. You do have feelings for Marcus.”


    Grandmother had not only educated Theo well but also Quinn. Both of them received the same


    education. Certain things were not going to disappear with age and experience, take responsibility


    and mission for example.


    Quinn fell silent for a very long time after hearing what I said.


    "Wanda...” She took a deep breath. "You''re smarter than I thought, but I feel insecure to be seen


    through s o easily by you.”


    Iughed. "We’re partners now, and I''ve always been honest with my partners.”


    I left home and went back to the office. At three o''clock in the afternoon, Tyler gave me a call and


    asked me to go to the detention center to meet Lawrence.


    The evidence was all in ce and he would be transferred to the prosecutor''s office tomorrow


    afternoon.


    When I saw him at the detention center, I noticed that his hair had turned gray overnight.


    "You don’t have to be afraid that I''ll retaliate against you anymore, Miss Lane. I have no ability left to


    retaliate against you even after I get out of prison." Lawrence’s words were extremely sarcastic.


    I raised my eyebrows. “All the properties under your name were confiscated. The properties under


    your brother and sister-inw''s names weren''t spared either. Your son will take his college entrance


    examination next year, your brother’s daughter will take her secondary exam next year, but asThis is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    they''re attending private schools, you probably won''t be able t o afford their tuition fees next year.


    Hence, you have n o choice but to transfer them elsewhere. Coupled with the fact that you''re now in


    prison, I think your son will probably fail his exam next year."


    Lawrence widened his eyes after hearing what I said. The police beside him vigntly pressed him


    down at once. "Sit still."


    I let out a slight smile. "I heard that your wife is frequenting apany recently. She often enters


    and leaves thepany with the boss. Looks like your son is going to call someone else his dad.


    Your son doesn''t have to transfer schools and can continue to study in the private school, but that''s


    hard to say. If that man refuses to take him in, then your wife will have no choice but to leave him to


    fend for himself."


    Lawrence took a deep breath. "I know we hold no grudge against each other so you won''t waste


    your time visiting me just to say all these things. Spit it out, what do you want?"


    It did not take long for him to rpose himself. I said in admiration, "I regret it now. I should have


    agreed to cooperate with you."


    "Don''t you think it''s toote for regrets now, Miss Lane?" Lawrence''s gaze grew sullen. "I’ll be


    transferred to the prosecutor''s office tomorrow afternoon and will face eight years in prison."


    "I do feel sorry for that, but I can''t undo it.” I looked down and smiled. "But I canpensate you by


    helping your son. During your time in prison, I''ll take care of your son for you. He''ll live a good life,


    receive a good education, and with the background that I have, he''ll have a bright future after he


    graduates from college. I may be able to offer way more than what you can do for him."


    Lawrence''s expression eased up. "Do you really mean i t?"


    I raised my eyebrows. "As long as you give me what I want, then I’ll keep my word. If you don’t


    believe me, then we can get awyer to sign a contract."


    Lawrence took a deep breath. "What do you need?"


    With my purpose ofing to visit Lawrence


    achieved, I eased up. "I want whatever you promised t o give me before."


    "Sure." Lawrence agreed without a single hesitation. " I’ll tell you everything I know and give you


    everything I have. You must keep your word."


    "Sure."


    Lawrence sped his hands together and said after a long time, "Record it down with your phone."


    I nodded.


    When I pressed the record button, he said, "Give her the things."


    After a pause, he continued, "You can stop now."


    I tapped on my screen. "Who do I go to?" "My wife."
