Chapter 1299
“Mother, please just stop. Linda is already lying in the morgue, so what else do you want?” Yorick felt very upset too.
Madam Vanderbilt shut up wisely.
Maisie did not take Madam Vanderbilt‘s words to heart and looked at Yorick. “I‘ll pay for the funeral‘s expenses. We‘ll get to the bottom of the incident when we find out about the cause of the accident.”
At Blackgold…
Quincy walked next to Nolan. “Mr.
Goldmann, I‘ve located the nightclub for which Linda worked before this. The owner is known locally as Mr. Donovan, and he runs an illegal loan shark organization. His nightclub business isn‘t clean either, as he provides special services for his guests.
“I also found out that he often exploits his female employees, deceiving them into taking nude loans from him. When they cannot pay him back, he‘ll get them to serve guests according to his requirements.”
Nolan‘s gaze looked keen. “Who does he have supporting him from behind the scenes?”
Quincy skimmed through the information.” Among his clientele is Mr. Saldana from the Fortune Building Inc. By the way, Mr. Saldana once had business dealings with the Hannigans three years ago, but there doesn‘t seem to be any obvious interaction between the two companies over the past three years. So, maybe you can turn to Mr. Hannigan for more information. He should know something about this.”
Nolan did not say anything. When the two of them passed by the elevator, a woman stepped out of the elevator abruptly and bumped into him.
Quincy was about to teach the woman a lesson, but he was momentarily stunned when the woman lifted her head.
Cecile had already seen Nolan pass by from within the elevator, and she had chosen to bump into him on purpose.
She could not contain her excitement and pretended to be caught off guard. “I‘m sorry, I‘m really sorry, I didn‘t see you.”
Nolan glanced at the woman indifferently and gave off a faint frown.
‘She‘s the woman that appeared on one of the interview documents. But this woman gives me a strange feeling, just like what Quincy told me before, and I don‘t like this sensation.
Nolan unbuttoned his jacket and walked away without saying a word.
Quincy took a glimpse at the woman, smiled at her out of courtesy, and immediately caught up to Nolan‘s footsteps.
