Chapter 489 Interrogation

Fingers Nying over the keyboard, South managed to locate Lara’s resume Thirty years ago, she had worked in Kanes Corporation is Gerald’s secretary. The media exposed their affair and when Gerald’s wife found out, they had a big fight. After that, Gerald broke off hus relationship with Lara. At that time, he gave Lara one percent of his company’s share as compensation

South nodded. This explained why she was one of the shareholders of the Kanes Corporation. As South stretched his body, he suddenly remembered Samantha had also once worked for Kanes Corporation too, so he checked on her as well

Nd Kanes Corporation did have a secretary named Samantha Yapp and her picture did match Samantha, whom he had met. But he still felt that something was off! South frowned a little, wondering if he was overthinking. He stared at Samantha’s picture for a long time. Everything seemed normal but when he saw her eyes today, he remembered being afraid and felt hatred coming from inside of him. What was going on? He continued investigating a bit longer and discovered that Samantha didn’t complete the formalities for her resignation. Was it because the information had not been updated yet or was the problem with Samantha herself? He felt it was too much for his brain to comprehend. Meanwhile, Silas headed directly to Ruby Palace’s basement, as the men captured by his bodyguards were imprisoned there. “Mr. Nolan-” A bodyguard greeted him, only to be interrupted by Silas. “Did you get any information?”

“They’re keeping their mouth shut and won’t say anything,” the bodyguard replied.

Silas chuckled coldly. “You lot are doing it the wrong way. Bring them over here!”

The bodyguard responded in the affirmative. After a while, five big men were brought in front of Silas as the bodyguard explained, “Mr. Nolan, we only caught five of them, the rest got away.”

Silas didn’t mind, as five were more than enough. He looked at the five men tied up in front of him.

Some were injured while others were disabled, and there was even one lying with his face on the floor.

“What’s wrong with him?”

“He got hit in the head by Miss Aubrey’s friend and hasn’t woken up since. We’ve tried everything but he just won’t wake up,” the bodyguard explained.

Silas was surprised. Was that woman so strong? “Turn him around!”

The bodyguard obeyed his command. When Silas saw his face, he raised his brows slightly. Have I seen him before? He closed his eyes and tried to remember. Taking out his phone, he gave a call to Xavier. “Bring me the pictures you found of those who had been in contact with Luca Matthews. I’m in Ruby Palace’s basement.”

Xavier looked at the time, confused. It was already two in the morning but the president wanted him to send the pictures over right now? However, he didn’t dare to refuse so he answered instantly, “Understood.”

Silas hung up before looking at the four men standing in front of him. “Do you guys have any idea who the person you robbed was?” The men lowered their heads and didn’t make a sound, trying to act tough. Silas sneered, “Alright then. I have all the time in the world to waste with you. Tell me the truth if you want to get out of here. If not, you can stay here underground.” With that, he signaled to the bodyguards standing behind him. They understood immediately and went to stand beside each man.

The men peeked at the bodyguards beside them. It was not that they refused to speak, but they would die even if they were to tell the truth. So every time when they went out on a mission, they would make sure they would say the same thing-they were only following orders and didn’t know anything.

Silas laughed cruelly as he pointed at them. “1, 2, 3, 4. Starting from left to right, those who refuse to speak will be punished.” “Who gave you the order to rob Gianna Aubrey? Number 1, answer me.”

The man standing on the very left was shivering when he heard this and his eyes were filled with horror. Why did Silas start with him?
