Chapter 463

I said, "You can try."

Quinn took a deep breath and suppressed her rage as she said, "I don't want to argue with you. I

want to talk to you about Cindy Reed.”

I furrowed my brows together. "Cindy Reed?"

"Didn’t she kill the child you were carrying?" Quinn crossed her arms over her chest and half-

smirked as she looked at me. "I might hate you now, but no matter what, you're still Theo's wife by

law. She killed your child, and there's no way the Grant family will just let that slide.”

I laughed. "There's no need to phrase your words so nicely. Why didn't you wait until my child has

reincarnated before saying such things to me? Just let me know what sort of deal you want to strike

with m e."

She was such a selfish person. How could she care about who killed my child, let alone want to

seek justice on my behalf? Moreover, based on her current situation, it was not difficult to conclude

that she wanted me to help her get out of this mess.

As for the person I knew who could help her get out of this mess, there was no doubt it would be

Carlson.

Quinn smiled slightly. "I knew there was a reason why my grandmother insisted that Theo marry

you. I have t o admit that you're very smart."

"It has nothing to do with the fact that I'm smart; it's because your intentions are practically written

on your face," I mocked mercilessly.

Quinn was the one asking me a favor, so she allowed me to mock her mercilessly. "I'll help you

avenge your child, and you'll help me get Tyler to ask the police to stop investigating me."

In her dreams!

Quinn would be allowed to take everything the Zimmer family owned the minute she was cleared of

all charges. That was something I would never allow t o happen.

She had no right to the Zimmer family's assets!

However, she would simply go looking for other ways i f I refused her now. I lowered my eyes and

smiled as I said, "Nancy is a member of the Nietzsche family, and the Nietzsche family won't let you

off the hook so easily. Besides, the Nietzsche family is well-established in Whaldorf City. They're not

people my adoptive father can handle even if I ask him to help m e. This matter is something we

need to think longterm about. I have to meet a friend to discuss something important. Why don't we

discuss this in more detail when I have time?"

Quinn frowned slightly and said, "Then tell me if you'll

help me or not first."

I smiled slightly. "There’s a possibility of that happening."

Although Quinn was not satisfied with my answer, she did not say anything else.

I raced to the location Heidi and I had arranged to meet at. She had been waiting for a long time,

and I apologized as I sat down. "I was delayed by an insensitive person when I was about to leave.

I'm so sorry for making you wait."

Heidi smiled. "What are you talking about, President Lane? I wouldn't have complained even if I had

to wait for another hour."

As she spoke, she pushed the documents on the table toward me.

While I picked them up and flicked through them, Heidi said, "The person who kidnapped you from

the parking lot is Lawrence Ray. He's a project director in Petra's company and is also one of

Grayson's lapdogs. Petra, Grayson, and Ford all settle their transactions with him. The document

you hold now is a complete record of all the transactions they have done. It seems ordinary on the

surface, and the cash flow does not seem to raise any eyebrows as well. However, it's suspicious

that there are so many transactions happening between a businessman and a politician."

Heidi paused slightly before saying, "The police have convicted Lawrence, but there's nothing they

can use t

o press charges against Petra and Grayson."

I frowned. "There’s no way Petra gave Lawrence this little money that’s recorded on this document.

Where did the rest of the money go?"

Heidi laughed coldly. "One of my people found a textile company under Lawrence’s name. It's a

rather large company situated in Jornan. Meanwhile, his sister-in-law has a large renovation

company under her name as well. I’m guessing that Petra transferred money to the textile company

under the guise of working with them, and Lawrence took the money to d o whatever he needed to

do. When he receives payments, he’ll transfer them to the renovation company under the guise of

collaboration with them a s well. It’s the perfect way for them to transfer money t o one another. It's

completely legal as well."
