Chapter 715
Jimmy forced a smile onto his face. "Of course."
Then, he patted Zac on his shoulder and said, "You trust me right, Zac?"
"Of course! After I was admitted into the hospital, you're the one that came to visit me all the time, and after learning that I injured my legs, you were worried that I could not go to court again and continue to be a lawyer, so you invited me back to Quinton Group to be the director of the Legal Department. How could you ever be the one who wanted me dead, Dad?"
Jimmy's mouth twitched again. He looked at Zac and chuckled dryly. "Of course. I only have you, my only son. Of course I'd take this opportunity to grab you for the company for work!"
The two of them were bantering back and forth, and though they might have seemed very close, they were actually jabbing each other subtly.
The paparazzi were quick to swarm them, and they asked, "Mr. Zac, I heard you don't even own shares in Quinton Group. Is that true?"
"This..."
Zac looked at Jimmy and said, "I haven't done anything for the company, so naturally I can't ask for any shares."
"But I heard that Quinton Group used to be called Durham Group, which was your mother's company. Did your mother not leave any shares for you?"
This question was a killer, and it caused Jimmy's hand, which was on Zac's shoulder to tighten involuntarily.
Before Zac could say anything, Jimmy answered the question. "Of course he has them! You can’t trust news from outsiders, can't you? How we delegate our shares here at Quinton Group would definitely not be announced to the world, right?"
The paparazzo was relentless. "So, Mr. Quinton, is it a yes or a no? It seems like Mr. Zac also thought he didn't have any shares."
'The shares were left to him by his mother, but because Zac didn't want to come back to the company all this while, they were in my custody, and I did not tell him about it."
"However, this accident..."
"Everyone, we're still investigating the truth behind the accident, and as for its cause, I think it's clear for everyone to see, isn't it? It's usually either for love or for wealth."
"For love?" The paparazzi caught onto a main point and asked, "Mrs.
Quinton, what other relationship problems do you know about that Mr. Zac has?"
Olivia shook her head. "No, of course, my husband has no other woman."
Then, she smiled awkwardly. "Besides, when you asked me for a cause, all I did was give you my speculations. Isn’t that the normal hypothesis the policemen would make when they are investigating murder cases?"
Then, she held Zac's hand tightly, her eyes shone with determination and a hint of threat as she stared right into the camera. "However, I have something to say to the one who caused all of this. Don't think you can get away with this, because karma is a b*tch. In this world, you'll need to pay for the consequences of murder. Even if you can hide now, you won’t be able to hide forever. I hope you know your place.”
