Chapter 579


    Chapter 579 He Is Quite the Sneaker


    At the Crossley Group, Freddie had been helping Leanna to look through the documents. However,


    there were still many documents left waiting for her signature.


    The moment Leanna sat down, Richard rushed into the room and said, “I just got the news that


    someone bailed Raymond out of jail, Miss McKinney.”


    When Leanna heard his words, she stopped what she was doing. “Out of jail? I thought he was proven


    guilty of murder. Why is he still able to get out on bail?”


    “The evidence has been verified, and he is indeed proven guilty. However, things changed after Mr.


    Onder visited him. After Mr. Onder came back, the police suddenly said that there wasn’t enough


    evidence and needed to investigate the case again. “


    “When did Jimmy visit him?” asked Leanna while frowning.


    “It was the day when the Pearson Group had a press conference.”


    After hearing his words, she pursed her lips and said nothing. The evidence for Raymond’s case is


    clear, yet Jimmy still withstands the pressure and finds a way to bail him out. Judging by their


    rtionship, Jimmy is in a sticky situation himself, so there is no way he will risk saving Raymond. That


    is, Raymond must have promised Jimmy something that thetter couldn’t resist, she thought.


    “Raymond was bailed outst night. Up until now, he is still under the watch of the police. After he left


    the police station, he stayed in his house all day and did nothing, not even meeting up with Mr.


    Onder. It seems that nothing is going on,” Richard said.


    Leanna thought momentarily and said, “Jimmy is in a hurry to leave this ce. That’s why he’s trying to


    create a stir to get himself out of trouble. Still, he is different from Raymond. He has not killed anyone


    and is just in the process of being investigated. Hence, there is no way he will risk getting arrested by


    escaping. Raymond, though…”


    “Are you saying that Raymond might secretly leave, Miss McKinney?”


    “Definitely.” After all, it was true that Raymond had blood on his hands. Although Jimmy had bailed him


    out, Raymond knew the police would soon arrest him again. Hence, he would leave this ce as soon


    as possible.


    Suddenly, Leanna thought of something. “Have you seen Raymond’s children before?” she asked.


    “Yes.” Richard nodded.


    “I need you to go to his house on behalf of thepany and ask him to exin this matter. Also, tell


    him how thepany will deal with this and see if his children are there or not. After that, call me


    immediately.”


    “Okay.”


    After he had left, she was still frowning. She wondered how Raymond would escape if he was


    constantly being watched.


    Just as she was deep in thought, Freddie entered the he asked while waving his hand in front of her.


    Leanna returned to her senses and said, “Jimmy has bailed Raymond out of jail.”


    When Freddie heard that, he was not surprised. He clicked his tongue andmented, “That man is


    quite the sneaker.”


    “They must have been on to something, but I can’t figure it out. I don’t understand what temptation


    Raymond gave to Jimmy for him to risk himself getting caught.”


    “Oh, yeah. There is something you might not know about Raymond. Except Pearson Family, someone


    else is also helping him.”


    “Someone else?” Leanna was startled.


    He nodded and exined, “When it happened, Raymond took them away. Moreover, before this, he


    had been trying to get close to Celia. These days, he is acting normal, and there is no proof that he has


    directlye in contact with the Pearsons. Plus, he used to escape from the guards and went to the


    Pearson Family twice.”


    As Leanna heard his words, she furrowed her eyebrows deeply. “I have investigated him, but there is


    nothing suspicious about him.”


    “That’s the problem.” Freddie snapped his fingers. “There is nothing wrong with his lifestyle. However,


    before that, a group of people had contacted him. They even told the Pearsons about this, which


    means there is a high possibility that they are Raymond’sst resort.”


    “Who are they?”


    “I’m not sure. However, they aren’t as simple as they look since they it’s best to leave it as it is for your


    safety.”


    Leanna was silent. After some time, she asked, “Aidan asked you to tell me about this, didn’t he?”


    Although Freddie didn’t mention anything about him and was subtle with his words, Leanna managed


    to figure it out.


    Damn it. How did she know? Freddie was in utter shock.


    “Give me your ount,” said Leanna.


    “Why do you want it?” Freddie was confused.


    “You are working for the Crossley Group. Don’t you want your payment?”


    At that, Freddie chuckled dryly and said, “Come on… It’s not a big deal. You guys are only fighting,


    that’s all.” Aidan is always the one paying me. Judging by Leanna’s words, is she trying to cut ties with


    him?


    “Give it to meter,” said Leanna.


    Looking at her, he was suddenly interested in her business. “Do you want to go through a divorce? I


    can help you for free.”


    When she heard his words, she raised her head and looked at him stoically. “Thanks, but no. I’m not


    married.”


    “What about the custody of your child? I can do that too, and I’ll make sure you win the rights.”


    Leanna was speechless.


    Just as she raised her hand, Freddie backed away quickly and said, “I’m just joking.”


    Leanna ignored him and went back to dealing with the documents. After some time, Richard called her


    and told her that Raymond’s mother had taken his children away before Raymond was out of jail.


    “I have sent someone to check on Raymond’s hometown. Besides, everything in his house looked neat


    as though he hadn’t touched them. Although he tried to look calm, I could tell he wanted me to leave as


    soon as possible. I guess you are right, Miss McKinney. He’ll be leaving Highside soon.”


    “He will leave tonight at thetest,” replied Leanna.

    After she hung up the phone, Freddie asked her, “What do you have in mind?”


    “What are you talking about?” As she spoke, she stared at her phone thoughtfully.


    “I have a feeling that you will do what Aidan doesn’t want you to. That’s why I want to know what you


    are nning to do about this matter,” replied Freddie as he cocked an eyebrow.


    “Are you trying to sell me out?” Leanna looked at him.


    “No way!” Freddie said exaggeratedly. “I’m not a kid. Why would I still snitch on you? I’m just curious.


    Come on, tell me.”


    Leanna lowered her head and said, “Nothing. I’m not nning anything.”


    Freddie didn’t believe her, though. However, he knew that she would not tell him anything. It looks like I


    have to put on some effort and keep an eye on her. Once this matter is done, I’m going to ask Aidan for


    a raise, he thought.
