Chapter 489 The Cancelled Bank ount


    Derek rolled his eyes cunningly, but he chose to tell the truth this time.


    "I haven''t seen Mr. Zhou after that. I was lured into gambling again by others. I had already won over


    three million with which I was nning to buy Lily a big house, but someone named Rex Wang told me


    that I could win more to buy arger house if I would gamble with what I had already won, so I


    continued gambling. But I didn''t expect that I would end up losing all the money and owing them two


    million."


    It seemed that Derek had fallen into the same trap again.


    Derek was already addicted to gambling, so he didn''t realize that other people were using his


    weakness to trick him into losing money.


    How pathetic.


    Although Linda had asked Derek all the questions that were bothering her, there were still some things


    that weren''t clear to her. But she was sure that she could not get more information from Derek.


    It didn''t seem like he knew anything about Vincent.


    "Take him to the police station!" Linda waved her hand.


    This time, Linda wanted to teach Derek a lesson. She had always let him off so easily, despite his


    wrongdoings. Derek would not realize his mistakes and mend his ways if he wasn''t put into prison.


    Since Derek was Donna''s brother and Linda''s uncle, Donna would be very sad if Derek was sentenced


    to several decades in prison. With this in mind, Linda asked Paul to suggest to the police to cut Derek


    some cks, since this was Derek''s first criminal charge.


    However, Derek wasn''t grateful to Linda. In fact, he despised her even more. He believed that if Linda


    hadn''t caught him and taken him back, he would not be sent to prison.


    People always feared facing the police and getting into jail, so, of course, Derek was no exception.


    When Derek was taken away, he yelled at Linda to help him because he didn''t want to be imprisoned.


    But Linda was already set with her decision, and she wouldn''t back down on it.


    After Derek had been sent away, Linda turned her head to Bun and asked, "Bun, was I too heartless?


    He is Lily''s father, after all."


    "My Lady, deep down, I know you are a kind person. But sometimes, you don''t have a choice. If you


    don''t teach Derek a lesson this time, he might continue scamming people out of their money by taking


    advantage of the Mu''s Group''s name. By then, he might get into graver dangers. Anyway, you have


    told Paul to help him reduce his sentence to a few years, so he can get released earlier than he


    deserves. He can use this time to reflect and repent his crimes and start anew after he''s out."


    Linda felt relieved after hearing Bun''s words.


    Now that Derek''s matter had been dealt with, they still had to contact Lucas and offer him a solution.


    Since they couldn''t help him get the two million back, they would just give him a chance to cooperate


    with the Mu''s Group.


    However, Linda still had to discuss it with Charles, And she could only talk to him about it after Charles


    woulde back in the evening.


    Gently tapping her fingers on the table, Linda was still confused about one more thing. Derek had owed


    an underground casino, managed by Vincent, three hundred thousand before. Now, he lost two million


    at the same ce, but he didn''t transfer the money to Vincent''s bank ount.


    This matter needed to be investigated. At the thought of this, Linda told Bun, "Bun, help me check


    Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.


    whose bank ount was the two million transferred to."


    "Don''t worry, My Lady. It is being investigated now."


    Since Bun was the senior officer of WSS, she would always be one step ahead and know what was


    under investigation currently. Sometimes, she could even sense what Linda would want her to do


    before she gave her the instructions.


    An hourter, Paul came back. Derek had been sent to the police station. Paul told the police that


    Derek had voluntarily surrendered himself to the police aftermitting fraud, and there was irrefutable


    evidence enough to charge him with it, so the police agreed to sue Derek with a light sentence of three


    years.


    It was probably the best for Derek. He needed to spend time reflecting in jail to be a better


    person.


    People had always lost money in gambling. Having an addiction to it would never do anyone any good.


    "My Lady, there has been some updates regarding our investigation, " Paul told Linda.


    "Tell me."


    "Derek had indeed transferred three hundred thousand to Vincent before, and the two million had also


    been transferred to the same ount. But when we asked the hackers to look into Vincent''s bank


    ount, all of the money had been transferred to Adam Huo''s ount..."


    Transaction records of bank ounts were confidential, so they had to hire hackers to check them


    discreetly.


    "That''s strange. What does Vincent have to do with Adam?"


    "I''m also curious about it. Besides, Vincent''s bank ount has been closed after Derek transferred two


    million to it. Then, I checked all of Vincent''s bank ounts, and all of them had been closed, too."


    What was Vincent up to? He closed all of his bank ounts and transferred all of his money to Adam''s


    ount. Did he do that for Lisa?


    Linda had guessed that Lisa was pretending to be her while living in the Huo n''s house, so now, the


    name Lisa did not exist.


    If Vincent had really done such a thing because of Lisa, then what was Lisa''s rtionship with Adam?


    Linda felt that there was a big conspiracy involving all these people, but it frustrated her to not know


    what was happening.


    Pregnant with twins, she was going to give birth in two months, so she had been even more fidgety.


    In the beginning, Linda believed that she was being paranoid because she was pregnant and was


    about to give birth. However, her sixth sense was always right, and she was guessing that something


    bad might happen soon.


    When she had been abducted by Amy before, she had also felt this flustered.


    Linda shook her head, trying her best not to think pessimistically. At present, she just wanted to keep


    her babies safe.


    She thought that she should put aside those bothersome things, at least, for the moment.


    Linda had never taken any action to get back at Lisa because she didn''t want to involve herself in such


    an unpleasant matter. After all Lisa was a pathetic person. But on the other hand, she was also


    detestable.


    Nearly a year had passed since she got pregnant, and Linda felt that her belly had already reached its


    peak. Her babies were going to be born very soon!


    She had promised Lord Nn before that she would go back to the Nn n''s house once a week to


    have meals with him. Linda nned to go to the Nn n this weekend to have lunch with Lord


    Nn and then go back home. She wasn''t intending to spend a lot of time there since she was


    pregnant and needed to take more rest. If she would want to spend more time with her grandfather, she


    could always visit him after her babies were born.


    Since she had promised to visit Lord Nn once a week, she should do what she had said.


    When Lord Nn found out from the servants that Linda was going to visit him and join him for lunch,


    he got excited, so he asked the servants to prepare lots of delicious food.
