Chapter 185
Savanna was restless the whole day.
The sunlight outside the window shone on her body.
Savanna sat in the chair with her eyes closed to rest. Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door.
“Let me in, Justin. I have something to discuss with Ms. Thompson,” Jim said impatiently.
“Ms. Thompson doesn‘t have time to see you. Please go back.” Justin‘s voice was cold and detached “Jim.”
As soon as Justin let out a furious roar, Jim pushed Justin aside and charged in.
Savanna turned the chair and looked at Jim‘s angry face. Savanna raised her eyebrows and asked, “What‘s the matter?”
Jim walked to Savanna and took a deep breath to calm his anger. Then he slowly said, “Ms. Thompson, in order to protect you, Mr. Cassel was taken into custody. Only you can help him. Please come with me.”
Savanna was confused and frowned. “Speak clearly, Jim.”
Jim exhaled and repeated, “The day before yesterday, you didn‘t use your account to transfer money to the Cassel Group, right? Ms. Thompson.”
Savanna admitted with a nod, “At that time, the situation was a little urgent, and that money was transferred by Lucas because he and I were partners of L&S Limited. What‘s wrong?”
Jim listened to Savanna and his face gradually paled. He muttered, “That makes sense. You used the account that Lucas shared with you to transfer the money to the Cassel Group. Did Lucas tell you that the money was invested in L&S Limited by Sam?”
“No,” Savanna answered truthfully.
Jim was helpless. “If Lucas knew that you took this money to cut off your relationship with Mr. Cassel, then you were used by him.”
Savanna stood up from her chair. “What the hell happened?”
Jim told the truth in detail.
Savanna‘s face gradually turned pale after she heard that.
Seeing that Savanna had no reaction after knowing the truth, Jim became even more anxious. “Ms. Thompson, Mr. Cassel had a conflict with the Dawson Group because of you. Bob‘s cousin attacked the Cassel Group and took Mr. Cassel away last night.”
Jim looked at his watch and said, “It has been thirty hours, and there has been no news from Mr. Cassel. Mrs. Cassel was so anxious that her hair turned white, so she asked me to come to you.”
Bob‘s cousin, Rodrigo Mooney, was a member of the discipline inspection. Since the Dawson Group had gone bankrupt, Rodrigo naturally had to help the Dawson Group, and the Cassel Group was held accountable.
Savanna‘s temple was throbbing.
If Lucas knew that she wanted to give the money to Brandon, then this was a trap.
“What does Mrs. Cassel want me to do?” Savanna did not believe in Lucas, and she didn‘t know about the business dealings between Lucas and Sam.
“Mrs. Cassel said that at this time, maybe only you could say a few words for Mr. Cassel. If not, you can persuade Mr. Cassel. We have asked someone to inquire about it. It is said that Mr. Cassel is tight–lipped about this matter.”
If he just admitted it, he might be taken into custody.
Savanna thought about it over and over again and finally went to the detention center with Jim.
They asked to see Brandon. The police said that the higher–ups had ordered that they could not visit Brandon.
Needless to say, Rodrigo had tampered with the words.
When Ben heard that Brandon had been taken into custody, he was extremely anxious. As soon as he drove to the detention center, he saw Savanna and Jim.
“How is it?” he asked Jim.
“We are not allowed to see him.” Jim was equally anxious.
Ben glanced at Savanna and sneered. Leaning against the corner of the wall, he lowered his head and lit a cigarette. He made a call in front of Savanna.
Jim was so anxious that sweat dripped from the tip of his nose. He was helpless. “Mr. Anderson, you know that many of the connections of the Cassel Group are related to Mr. Cassel. Now that Mr. Cassel was taken into custody, no one would help us. And Mr. Cassel doesn’t tend to ask for help himself.”
Savanna smiled and crossed her arms over her chest. “Ben, what right do you have to ask me what I am going to do?”
