    Chapter 79 Inquiring About the Past Events


    He nodded, pulled out his phone and started searching.


    He then handed me the phone, looking at the person in the photo, I was surprisingly speechless!


    Did Owen have an affair with Ryan’s lover?


    This was indeed a bit unexpectedly absurd.


    “Did Ms. Conner know this man?” Cory asked, seeing me frowning at my phone.


    I nodded, looking at him and asked, “Cory, have youmunicated this matter with the police?”


    He shook his head, “I haven’t said it yet, I was just about to tell you, and then contact the police.”


    I grunted in acknowledgement, handing the phone back to Cory. “We don’t need to pay too much


    attention to this side for now, Cory. Find me a few reliable people who are good with their hands,” I


    said.


    Cory asked, puzzled, “What was Ms. Conner going to do?”


    I smiled faintly, having nothing to hide from him, and said, “Take them to Chesterburg for a


    kidnapping.”


    “Huh?” Cory was taken aback, unable to react for a moment.


    I didn’t say much more, just told him to get ready. When Alexander saw Cory leave, he frowned at me


    and said, “Is this really your n to go to Chesterburg?”

    “Right!” I nodded, “Just Thomas and Ryan, besides, the police in Chesterburg could also use them.”


    “Hehe!” Alexander gave me a nce and said speechlessly, “Tabatha, you are really naive. Thomas


    and Ryan must have at least three to five million dors in their hands now. These two can be


    considered rich people. Have you ever seen a rich person without a few capable bodyguards around


    them? You bring a few henchmen over and n to kidnap them back, naive.”


    Reminded by him in this way, I did react. Yes, these two had


    embezzled arge amount of assets from the Conner Group. With so much money, they must be


    wishing to protect themselves with a vajra


    cover at this moment.


    Imagine, an ordinary person suddenly had a worth of three to five billion, what was their mentality?


    They were probably thinking about how to enjoy life with this money on one hand, and on the other


    hand, they were thinking about how to protect themselves and the safety of this money. No one wanted


    to die before they had the chance to enjoy the good life.


    Seeing that I seemed to take his words to heart, Alexander said, “Regarding the matter of going to


    Chesterburg, we need to discuss with the police and n carefully. Don’t act rashly.”


    I nodded, understanding his point. The illegal outflow of domestic funds was something the police


    would naturally not ignore. If we could unite, it would be much better than me trying to figure things out


    on my own.


    In the midst of my thoughts, my phone rang. It was Lucas’s phone number. Seeing this number, I was


    taken aback for a moment, then quickly answered the call.


    “Ms. Conner, I’m sorry to bother you,” came the voice of Lucas from

    the other end of the phone.


    I knew when he called, it was most likely about Owen. I quickly said, “Lucas, has there been any


    progress with Owen?”


    “Um, yes,” Lucas began, “Here’s the thing, we have found the big fish behind Owen domestically. The


    bureau is nning to close the in the next few days. However, I just heard that you guys have


    discovered new clues, so I wanted to discuss it with you.”


    The Ryan’s lover and Owen?


    As soon as Lucas spoke, it urred to me. I said into the phone, “Hmm, the Conner Group’s funds


    have been misappropriated. We are also sending people around to inquire. We had no idea about the


    rtionship between Ryan’s lover and Owen.”


    “Uh huh!” Lucas responded, pausing for a moment before continuing, “This matter has been


    investigated by the police and it’s quiteplicated. It involves something from five years ago. I have


    some things I’d like to discuss with you, Ms. Conner. Do you have some time? Can I invite you for a


    cup of tea?”


    I was somewhat confused as I listened. Owen’s matter was rted to something from five years ago,


    but could Ryan’s lover also be rted to something from five years ago?


    Regarding this, I didn’t hesitate much and directly epted it.


    In the teahouse outside the police station’s main gate.


    Lucas arrived in a hurry. Seeing that I was already there, he took off his police cap and said


    apologetically, “There’s a lot going on at the station, I’m sorry to have kept you waiting.”


    I shook my head slightly, going straight to the point, “Lucas, have you found out anything?”

    He nodded, not bothering to take a sip of tea, and said, “This matter is currently just my personal


    spection. I invited you here to discuss it, not to confirm anything, so we can just treat it like a casual


    conversation.”


    I nodded, uttering a sound of agreement.


    Perhaps it was because he was a police officer, even though he said that, I still couldn’t help but feel as


    nervous as I did when I was recording with a pen back then.

    Seeing that I still looked serious, he smiled and didn’t insist anymore. He went straight to the point and


    said, “Ms. Conner, could you tell me about what happened at the border back then?”
