Chapter 1377
"I know what I did was wrong, Mr.
Zimmerson. I was forced into it. If I didn''t listen to him, he would''ve killed me. I had no choice."
Tory narrowed his eyes. "So Jordan was the one who helped you pay back the hundreds and thousands of dors that you stole."
"Yes."
I pursed my lips and asked Anthony, "That corpse at the crime scene... Who was it?"
Tory frowned. Perhaps he felt that my question was unimportant.
Anthony was taken aback. He looked over me and said somewhat uncertainly, "It''s probably Mn."
I looked at Theo, unsure if I could believe his words.
Theo held my hand and lowered his head as if he were thinking about something.
After a few minutes, he asked Tory, "Did you find Mn''s whereabouts?"
"He disappeared ever since your ident. I''ve sent people to search for him, but it''s been such a long time. We still haven''t found him. He might be dead."Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
As soon as he said that, a troubled expression crossed Tory''s face as he pondered that possibility.
It was a baffling matter. Why did Jordan want to kill Mn? When Mn first arrived in Limbia, he was in desperate need of assistance, so he and Jordan decided to work together. Not only did Jordan''s interests remain untouched, but Mn would also help him however he could too. Simrly, Jordan would provide help whenever needed.
Why would Jordan kill him?
I pursed my lips, looked at Anthony, and asked, "Are you sure that the corpse belongs to Mn?"
Anthony thought about it and said, "That night, Mn was the one who led the men to capture you. Once Mn pulled
President Grant into his car, they sped off. However, the car was stopped a short distance away by someone who imed to be Jordan Fredericks'' man. He wanted to bring President Grant with him, and Mn just decided to tag along. I wasn''t going back to town. I just happened to be heading in the same direction as those people, so I kept driving behind them. After driving for about a mile or so, the cars suddenly stopped. I was a little scared, so I stopped too. Then, I saw Mn getting shoved down from the car. Hey on the ground, motionless. He was covered in blood too. At that point, I was freaking out. I didn''t dare to stay and watch. I was afraid I''d be next, so I just sped off. I''m telling the truth.
You''ve got to believe me."
No one said anything for a while. Everyone was deep in thought.
Tory finally snapped out of his thoughts, looked at Anthony, and said in an icy tone," Seeing how well you performed today, I''ll let you go. You''d ''d better be more honest from
here on out. If you cause any more trouble for me, I''ll feed you to the sharks."
Once he was done speaking, he gave his bodyguards a look.
Anthony was led out of the room. Now, only Theo, Tory, and I remained in the room.
When I saw that neither of them nned on speaking, I could not help but ask, "Why did Jordan want to kill Mn?"
Even when I was abroad, I already knew that Mn and Jordan had aplicated rtionship. There must have been a lot of benefits involved between the two.
Moreover, no matter how reckless Mn was, there was no way that Jordan could have killed him so easily.
Theo pursed his lips, looked at Tory, and said, "I need you to investigate this matter. At the same time, I''ll send someone here to take charge of our coboration."
"Huh?" Tory was unhappy. "President Grant, why do I feel like you''re trying to dump this matter on me so you can just bring your wife back to Whaldorf and continue frolicking there?"
"If you want to be responsible for the
En
Zimmerson family''s downfall, I can stay here." Theo gave him a cold look and said," Jordan is ying something bigger than just chess. He wants something more than a business partnership."
