A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301

Sam's expression turned somber and he muttered, "Well, that doesn't look good.”

It was obvious the entire case against Cordy was so rock solid that it had to be set in motion by someone with powerful influence. If they did not have John's connections now, it would take a miracle for Cordy to escape a prison sentence.

"I'll try to contact Johnny. He would probably want Quinn on Cordy's case anyway, so give her the details. Once he's back, well get right down to business and find the solution," Jay told Sam right then.

"Okay."

Within the detention center, Cordy was a little surprised to see Quinn, but she soon came to a realization-John must have arranged her to be Cordy's legal advisor.

She did not know much about Quinn, aside from the fact that she was Sam's wife and working at Saunderia. She only inadvertently found out later that Quinn was actually their legal advisor.

"Ms. Sachs." Quinn greeted her politely and respectfully. "John Levine has tasked me to help you with your case."

"Yeah," Cordy replied, but it was not her being enthusiastic.

She just knew all too well who the mastermind was, and she had a hard time accepting John's goodwill.

Moreover, she was not convinced that John could help her in any way.

Quinn could sense Cordy's mood too, and she said, "I first need to make sure something so that we can put together a better defense for you at court-have you been involved in bribery or tax evasion?"

"No," Cordy replied—even if she had no hope, she had not fallen so far that she would just give up altogether.

"I never wired any money to Henry Lane," Cordy replied definitively. "I've socialized with Henry Lane under perfectly legal circumstances, and that was before I took over Starstream Group. It's an unspoken rule in business to make as many connections as possible."

Quinn naturally believed Cordy and asked, "Have you received any notification regarding changes in your bank balance?"

"None." Cordy narrowed her eyes, wondering just then how many strings that woman had to pull to do this.

"Also, I did not open this account," Cordy then added.

"In other words, it's a dummy account set up to incriminate you." Quincy nodded. "However, opening an account requires you to be at the bank personally. In short, if we secure evidence that you did not open this bank account, there's a chance to set up your defense."

Cordy, however, was not at all optimistic. "Do you think she would make a mistake like that?"
