Chapter 2298

“It’s about time, Yuri! I sent you to look into Fiona’s background. How did it go?” Angus asked hastily.

“Dad, this Fiona girl seems to be using an alibi so I can’t find anything about her,” Yuri shook his head.

Though Angus was chased out of the family, the first bloodline of the Thompsons still held a certain level of power. However, despite exhausting all connections, they could not find anything about Fiona, which led to two possibilities: she was either using a fake name, or someone else with power hid all information about Fiona.

“What?” Angus was shocked and his heart sank at the update.

Leon found out why Yonas died, and Fiona had no power to murder Yonas on her own, so both Angus and Leon already concluded that someone else was pulling the strings.

At that moment, Fiona became the key suspect and witness to finding the truth.

If he and Leon wanted to uncover the true culprit behind Yonas’s murder, they had to rely on Fiona to expose the mastermind.

Furthermore, since Arthur and August previously mistook Leon for the killer of Yonas, they had no suspicions or reservations about Fiona. However, Fiona already took the opportunity to disappear without a trace.

At the moment, Yuri could not find any information about Fiona’s identity or background, making it even more challenging to locate her which meant that the only lead came to a dead end.

One can only imagine the frustration they all must have felt.

“What a cunning and devious killer! They sure are adept at concealing their tracks!” Leon’s expression darkened.

He did not anticipate how prepared the culprit was.

Not only did they rupture Yonas’s internal circulation, and frame Leon for the murder, but they also skilfully covered their tracks, leaving no evidence or loopholes behind.

This framing plot was indeed ingenious, nearly flawless.

“Damn it! How could this happen?” Angus’s expression turned sour.

Despite Leon’s efforts in investigating the cause of Yonas’s death, the only lead, Fiona, vanished and the prospect of him and Leon finding the killer seemed like an impossible task.

“Dad, don’t worry,” Yuri quickly interjected, “although I haven’t discovered Fiona’s identity or background, I accidentally stumbled upon some crucial information,”

“Oh? What important information?” Both Angus and Leon perked up upon hearing this news.

“Well, I found out that Yonas went to an upscale private club last night and had a conflict with Rodney.

He managed to rescue Fiona from Rodney’s clutches. It was because of this incident that Yonas and Fiona officially became a couple,” Yuri detailed the events that took place at the private club.

Since he could not uncover Fiona’s identity or background, Yuri had a moment of inspiration.

He decided to investigate Yonas’s recent activities to see if he had any enemies, which ultimately led to his untimely demise.

Yonas defeating Rodney at the private club and his act of heroism caused quite a stir at the time, and it was witnessed by many affluent youths in their social circle. Hence, it was easy to gather information about the conflict.

In the end, Yuri stumbled upon this vital lead by chance.
