Chapter 256: Decadence

Ayan frowned, “Do they find out something?”

“Logan called us. He said that they checked the monitor at the

construction site. After careful comparison and speculation, they found

two black screens, one is at the time when the accident happened

yesterday and the other is when the materials was delivered a month

ago.”

Kian told him the truth.

Logan was also shocked when he said this. It was not a simple

accident obviously.

Ayan looked at Kian. “So, the camera was sabotaged by someone,

right? It means that it isn't a simple accident but a premeditated plot.”

“That's current speculation.”

Kian nodded in response.

Ayan narrowed his eyes. He didn't make a sound but his face was

much colder that before.

He stayed silent for a few seconds and said, “Did the family of the

deceased mention compensation?”

“Nope, I attempted to sound out, but they refused to reconcile and

compensate and insisted on Simpson Group being investigated to find

out whether there were any other violations.”

“Well, if then want, Simpson Group will keep them company.”

There was no emotion in Ayan’s voice, but the only thing that was

certain was that his tone was cold, as cold as the freezing winter

weather.

Although the police found that there was a problem with the monitor,

which could prove that this incident was not a simple accident, but they

don't know what happened at that time

Therefore, it didn't make any difference.

Because of the incident, other projects of Simpson Group were affected

of varying degrees. In addition, the company also suffered a large loss.

Ayan, as the president of Simpson Group, must be responsible for

Simpson Group and all the employees. He said to Kian, “Pay attention

to the public opinion after the news of police is published.”

Kian was a little stunned and then understood immediately that Ayan

was reminding him to pay attention to whether there were suspicious

people.

After talking about this, Kian was about to go out when he suddenly

thought of something and said, “Mr. Simpson, the psychologist called

me to let me come over. The doctor mentioned that it is related to

Eileen.”

“Well, visit the psychologist when you're available.”

“I gett.”

Kian nodded and exited the office.

Ayan lit a cigarette and dialed Rex, “Hello? Where are you?”

"At work."

"How does he think about the incident?”

He was referring to Rex's younger brother, Ray.

Ray came back yesterday and contacted Ayan but he didn’t say too

much. He needed to sort out the cause and effect of the incident and

some information.

Ayan and Ray didn’t know each other very well. Though they were in

the same class, Ray was the type that who refused to take over the

family business and pursued his hobbies.

Rex knew that Ayan was anxious, so he didn't joke, let alone take this

opportunity to blackmail him. “I asked. It's a bit tricky because you can’t

provide evidence to prove that this matter is a simple accident. After all,

it caused casualties.”

“Sol”

Ayan asked mercilessly.

Rex was a bit stunned and said quicky, “He'll find a way. And didn’t you

say that what you have to do now is to wait? Are you anxious now?"

“I'm not anxious. I'm just worried that the someone wicked is behind the

thing and I don't want Camille to be used as a scapegoat.”

Camille was in charge of the project. It's been a full day since the

accident. If there isn’t any reliable evidence after today, she would take

a risk.

That was not what he wanted to see.

Rex was silent at his response.

Ayan didn’t ask more. “Tell Ray that please to do his best.”

“Don't worry. I see.”

Rex replied quickly.

Before Ayan hang up the phone, Kian knocked on the door again.

“Mr. Simpson,” Kian said, “one of the victims reported to the police that

that in addition to the monitor obtained by the police, there were hidden

surveillance cameras at the construction site.”

"Hidden cameras?”

“Yeah, I contacted Mr. Moss just now. He said that you asked him to

install some monitors after Mrs. Simpson was took away by Jack at the

construction site. In case the cameras were damaged, he installed

some hidden pinhole cameras, but ..."

The more Kian said, the more solemn Ayan looked.

Because it was reported by the injured, the police immediately rushed

to the construction site and then took Mr. Moss to the police station to

cooperate with the investigation.

When questioned by the police, Mr. Moss truthfully admitted that he

was indeed responsible for installing monitors but he replaced several

groups of people to install the monitors, including the secret pinhole

cameras. Now even he could not remember all the locations.

In other words, he was responsible for installing the cameras but he

didn't have the exact locations.

His words made the police a bit doubtful. Logan asked, “Is there always

a backstage-management system where you can view the footage?

Don't you have the backstage-management system?”

Mr. Moss hesitated and said to Logan, “I want to meet Mr. Simpson.”

Logan noticed that he wanted to say something and he couldn't do

anything at the police station, so Logan agreed.

Ayan rushed over immediately.

Logan arranged a separate room for Ayan to meet with Mr. Moss.

There was no monitor in it, which was specifically emphasized by Ayan.

Ayan looked at Mr. Moss, who just came to the police station to

cooperate with the investigation but looked decadent.

He asked faintly, “What do you want to tell me?”

“Mr. Simpson, I really don't know all the locations of the cameras on the

construction site.”

“But you arranged for someone to install them.”

“I know. But in case of accidents, I gave all the locations of the monitors

and the backstage-management system to Mrs. Simpson. Some of

them haven't been activated yet, maybe because Mrs. Simson hasn't

checked them.”

Mr. Moss lowered his voice deliberately, then watched Ayan again

warily for his response.

Ayan'’s face looked cold and gloomy. His deep eyes seemed to be

covered with a thick fog.

The atmosphere was quiet for about half a minute. Then he lightly lifted

his eyelids and glanced at Mr. Moss. “Do the police know about this?"

Ayan asked without any emotions.

“Nope, I didn’t tell them. I'm not sure, so I need to ask you first.”

Mr. Moss was loyal to Simpson Group and Simpson family. As such a

big accident happened, he also felt afraid, and even dared to speak

more, fearing that saying a wrong word would affect Simpson Group.

Although Simpson had nothing to do with him, he has witnessed it grow

better and better step by step. He worked in Simpson Group for

decades, devoting both his efforts and sincere feelings.

He looked at Ayan and asked uncertainly, “Mr. Simpson, if you're

worried... How about I tell the police that only I know. As for Mrs.

Simpson, you can tell her what to do about that.”

“No.” Ayan refused. He looked at Mr. Moss with a complicated look in

his eyes and continued, “tell them the truth. Tell the police what you

know. Don't hide anything, let alone any cover-up. Especially the fact

that Camille also knows the location of the cameras, you need to tell it

to the police word for word.”

“Mr. Simpson. Are you sure?” Mr. Moss looked puzzled. Wouldn't

Camille become a suspect by doing so?
