Chapter 663

663 Extortion at a High Price

When everyone returned to the exposition venue, Randy was still explaining to everyone about the asthma medicine Novartis had made. He only stopped when he saw Wally push the door open and enter, followed by Lyra, Sharon, and the others.

“Honey, why are you here?” Randy hurriedly ended his speech. Just as he said something, Wally took him away.

“You know Flora, right?” Wally was a swift to the point kind of person. Facing the stuttering Randy, he did not want to waste time and went straight to the point.

Lyra did not expect her husband to avoid her gaze when he heard this woman’s name. She instantly realized something.

“How could you betray me? Randy!” Lyra’s voice trembled, and tears filled her eyes.

“It’s not like that! I was wronged. Honey, listen to me... Can the police officer let my family off first? And this Sharon...” Randy’s forehead was covered in cold sweat, and he stammered.

He didn’t know what to say in the face of his wife and boss.

“Are you the murderer?” Aaron suddenly stood up and stared at Randy’s face.

“No, I told you that I had nothing to do with this. She threatened me first. I didn’t even know she had taken that kind of video. Nothing happened between us. She was just using this to threaten me.”

Randy was a little incoherent. This was the first time he had found such a special industry practitioner. He did not expect to encounter such a thing.

“Calm down first. Answer me normally.” Wally gestured for Randy to calm down before starting to ask professionally.

“How did you meet the deceased, Flora?”

“It was at a seminar. She was a service staff at the scene. It was only later that I found out about her other identity.” Lucas’ emotions gradually stabilized. Since it had already happened, he couldn’t avoid it anymore and said whatever he knew.

Lyra’s eyes were filled with disappointment and helplessness. She had thought that her married life was very blissful, but she did not expect her husband to find a woman in this industry to satisfy his physiological needs!

“I followed her to the hotel. I didn’t expect her to hide a camera in the hotel and threaten to tell my wife about this!” Randy’s expression was very painful. He didn’t dare to look up at Lura and felt very guilty.

“So you killed her in a fit of anger and framed others?” Wally asked with a cold face.

Randy shook his head. “How is that possible? I’ve been working overtime for the past half a month. Because Flora extorted 500,000 dollars from me, I’ve always been working hard to give her the money to resolve this matter as soon as possible. Many colleagues in the company can prove it! I’m not lying!”

Wally nodded, and Sharon observed Randy seriously. Then, she leaned close to Wally and whispered, “I don’t think it’s him. He’s been using his right hand since the beginning and rarely uses his left hand, but according to my observation of the victim’s wound, he’s more inclined to use his left hand.”

“It’s also possible that the murderer deliberately used his left hand to confuse the police.”

Wally frowned slightly. Did this woman not know what fear was?

He turned around and met Sharon’s extremely good-looking face. The two of them were so close that Wally could feel the warmth of Sharon’s breath, and her clear perfume fragrance made Wally’s heart race.

“Ahem, the police are handling a case. Don’t get involved.” Wally quickly sat up straight, leaving Sharon alone with a puzzled expression.

“However, the nightclub where Flora works is near New York and far from Port City. Could it be done by one of her guests? I think she must be a repeat offender for her to do such a thing,” Randy said quickly as if he had thought of something.

Wally’s phone rang. He looked down and said, “Your alibi for the time of the deceased’s death has been confirmed. You can leave now. If you recall any clues, you can contact the police as soon as possible.”

When Lyra heard this, she picked up her clothes and turned to leave. Randy quickly followed her. “Honey, listen to my explanation! Honey, this is not what you think!”

Sharon sighed helplessly. Every family had their own difficulties. It seemed like it would take a long time for Randy to handle this matter. It was better to inform Zoey in advance to prevent family matters from affecting the medicine launch.

“Are you able to find George?” Wally finally remembered why Aaron was looking for Sharon, then turned around and asked.
