Chapter 706
Francis was waiting for them when rence and Ste arrived at the Steward Group.
Francis walked forward and greeted, “Mr. Conrad, Ms. Radomil.”
rence said, “How’s the situation now?”
“We just found out that the email originated from the Steward Group. Samuel is already looking for the
person.”
rence said, “No need.”
Francis was puzzled.
Ste exined, “Lyndon is at the Steward Group for so many years. No one is more familiar with the
Steward Group’syout andwork system. Since he knew how to send the email from here, he
would also know how to escape without detection.”
True enough, Samuel found theputer from which the email was sent from but the actual user of
theputer had juste back from his lunch break. He was totally bbergasted as to what had
happened.

Very quickly, the security guards delivered the security footage to Francis’ office.
Soon, they could see the person who came into the Steward group was professional and did not look
like Lyndon Steward. He must be one of Lyndon’s subordinates.
This man never revealed his face during the entire time he was at the Steward Group. He seemed very
familiar getting around the ce and was definitely not his first time there.
Samuel said, “What shall we do now? Report to the Police?”
rence said, “There is another reason why they chose to send the email from the Steward Group.”
Ste looked confused.
rence’s slender fingers tapped gently on the table and said, “That is to tell us that he knows our
every movement.”
Thus, it was not wise for them to contact the police.
Ste mumbled, “Then…”
rence said, “Although the man was not Lyndon and this man did not reveal himself, we can still be
certain that Lyndon is now in City N.”
Francis chided in, “Why?”
rence took a nce at him, “If you are about to receive fifty billion dors, would you trust someone
else with the money? Won’t you be around to oversee it?”
“Didn’t he spend a lot of effort to escape from City N? Now that he''s back, wouldn’t he be able to
escape?”
“Most will think this way and that was why he took the risk toe back. Furthermore…” rence
paused for a second before continuing, “He would think that since he managed to escape once, he
would be able to escape again.”
“Now go and contact the major banks and spread the news that the Steward group is mortgaging its
assets.”
Ste asked softly, “But based on Lyndon’s somewhat paranoid character, he would not believe it even
if we do these…”
“It’s not important whether he believes or not. He just wants the money.” rence said, “Don’t forget,
he still has an assistant. Even if it’s a trap, he would not suffer any loss.”
Ste understood that Lyndon was gambling if they would use fifty billion dors to exchange for
Daniel’s life.
He would get the money if he was sessful. If not, then he would remain in the shadows and sacrifice
his assistant.
Samuel said, “I’ll do as you instructed.”
After Samuel left, rence looked towards Francis and said, “Check on this man’s history. This isn’t
the first time he came to the Steward Group. There would be records and do aparison.”
Francis was dumbfounded. A lot of people came and went to the Steward Group. This task would be
overwhelming.
rence asked, “Any problems?”
“No… no…” Francis answered and hurried out of his office.
Ste frowned and said, “That’s going to be difficult.”
rence held on to her hand as they sat on the sofa, “There would be some answers within two
hours.”
Ste was surprised, “Within two hours?”
rence nodded and then said, “Firstly, this person isn’t someone from the Steward Group.”
“But only staff of the Steward Group would know their way around this ce,” Ste said.
“But the risks are too great. All staff of the Steward Group would have their movement tracked and thus
it is very easily traced. Even if they are willing to take the risk because of the potential rewards, Lyndon
would not risk it.”
Ste found his reasoning logical but then said, “Then who could it be?”
rence grinned, “You will know soon enough.”
Francis shared the same thoughts as rence’s and eliminated the staff of Steward Group.
Armand’s men were some idiots incapable of conjure up such a n. Francis began to focus on the
remaining people.
After an hour, he found someone who he thought was rather familiar but could not remember where he
saw him.
He took out the information and asked, “Who is this?”
His assistant said, “This is Christian Atwood, a manager of Bonnie Derrick’spany.
Francis frowned and could not remember who Bonnie and Christian were.
The assistant said softly, “Previously when Armand was exposed for sexual harassment, the supposed
victim went to the police and then said it was Ms. Radomil who instigated her. After this incident, this
Christian Atwood and their entirepany disappeared.
Francis then asked, “How many times did theye to the Steward Group?”
“When he was discussing the coboration details with Armand, he came several times. ording to
the records, he alone came five to six times.”
With his records, it was easy for them to find the security footage.
Francis took the image of the person who entered the Steward Group andpared them to the
footage.
After looking from various angles, he was certain that the person who sent the email was Christian
Atwood.
It took Francis five minutes shy of two hours to report his findings to rence.
Ste looked at the materials that Francis brought and frowned even deeper. She had seen this Mr.
Atwood when she was handling Armand’s incident. Her impression of Mr. Atwood was that he was
crafty; he yed submissive in front of the tough but y brutal in front of the meek; he looked cunning
with his distasteful grin. No matter what, he did not seem like the type who would help Lyndon to do
those dangerous and meticulous matters.
She continued to go through his details and apart from the fakepany, the rest of the information
was very simple.
Francis said, “I already checked, the information is all fake.”
Ste closed the folder and said, “Could this Mr. Atwood…. Be Lyndon’s man?” If he was, then he
would not intentionally entrap Armand. Although in the end, they turned it around to me her, she was
not too affected by the incident. Instead, it was Armand who exposed Lyndon.
How could they shoot their own foot?
rence then said, “He was just picking a person to work with. Whoever gave the higher rewards, he
would work with him.”
