Chapter 1513
Jonathan's expression darkened after the call ended. He strode out of the room and stopped outside Frieda's door.
Ever since Aubree left, Frieda had been cooping up in her room due to her guilty conscience.
When she heard someone knocking on the door, she was so nervous that she nearly fell out of her bed.
“Frieda, it's me. Open the door.” Jonathan spoke in a firm tone that left no room for negotiation.
However, Frieda did not have the guts to face him. Faking a weak voice, she answered, “I'm not feeling well. Can we talk another time...”
“If you don't open the door now, I'll get the key and open it myself.” Jonathan was adamant about speaking to his sister right then.
Frieda had no choice but to get up and open the door. “Jonathan, what's so urgent that you have to talk to me immediately?”
Looking at the woman with a scrutinizing gaze, Jonathan said, “Two million five hundred thousand was found missing from the company's accounts during the time you were there. What did you spend the money on?”
Initially, he had assumed that his sister had used the money to buy luxury products.
Since it wasn't a huge sum of money, he had turned a blind eye to it.
However, Jonathan could not help but feel uneasy when he thought about Frieda's abnormal behavior over the past few days, considering everything that had happened.
Frieda's heart skipped a beat after she heard her brother's question. She lowered her head in a fluster in an attempt to mask her feelings of guilt.
“That money... Um... I used it to buy a bag.”
Knowing Frieda extremely well, Jonathan noticed something amiss about her at once. At that moment, his heart sank. “Bag?
Where's the bag?”
