After these words were spoken, the entire mourning hall became so quiet that you could even hear a pin drop.
Lawrence died an unnatural death?
Those who could come here were not ordinary people.
It was easy to get to the point from David's words.
This was not the time to joke. Everyone was well aware of Lawrence's status in Shen's Group.
He was the hero who once rushed out of the business empire of Shen's Group with his head and his two shoulders on his back!
If he didn't retire, even if David was still sitting in the president's position, the weight of his words was enough to shake the giant.
Even though he had retired for so many years, there were still many people who supported him in the group. They were still constantly taking advantage of his name to stir up disputes and disturb the calm sea of Shen's Group again and again.
He was the biggest potential enemy for
David after he retired in the future.
Now that Lawrence was dead, the happiest person should be David.
But why did he say that Lawrence died an unnatural death on such an occasion? Was he asking for trouble?
However, no one dared to doubt the weight of David's words.
Even Leonard couldn't do that!
Even though David's palm was pressed hard on the ice coffin at the moment, Leonard just took a gentle breath, looked at him and asked, "Brother-in-law, what do you mean? Are you suspecting my father's death, or is there any other reason?"
David was silent.
"Phew..." Leonard once again let out a breath. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Brother-in-law, this is no small matter. If you don't have any definite evidence, I'll just treat it as if you didn't say anything. If you have any more questions in the future, we can talk in private. Today, I think it's better to let my father's body cremate as soon as possible and then bury himself in the soil..."
"Hey." David waved his hand indifferently and interrupted Leonard. "Your father and I have known each other for more than twenty years. When he took me across the sea, you were not born yet. But as far as I know, although the river in front of your house is also a branch of the sea, the position where your father fell into the water is no more than 20 meters wide and less than five meters deep. How can such a river flood the former river dragon?"
Hearing this, Leonard's expression changed, but he still said in a low voice, "Brother-in-law, you also know that 20 years ago, my father was already over 60 years old, and his physical strength couldn't compare to the time when he was in his prime. Now he even needs the help of the housekeeper Fobe to walk. He lost his footing and fell into the water. There is no one around him to help him. Isn't that what he should do?"
When the crowd heard this, they acquiesced. They had heard about Lawrence's great achievements when he was young. But now, he was an old man and fell into the river in the middle of the night. It was really difficult to save him...
However, they only dared to think about these words in their hearts. No one dared to spit out a word. After all, the person standing in front of them now was David. He had absolute authority in Shen's Group. He was the emperor of the group. If the servant offended the emperor, there was only one result, which was death!
David looked at Leonard disappointedly. He shook his head and said, "Leonard, I really didn't think of it. I didn't expect that you still made up so many excuses and tried to deny it. If I hadn't received a message from your father last night, I would have believed what you said just now."
The news?
An imperceptible intention to kill flashed in Leonard's eyes. Glancing at the man in black behind David, Leonard asked in a low voice, "What did my father send to my brother-in-law before he died?"
David shook his head. "I can't show it to you now."
"So that's it?" Leonard sneered. After looking at David for a while, he suddenly waved his hand and scolded, "Please ask my father to leave here and go to the crematorium on the river!"
Before his voice had died away, the hands of the black-clothed man behind him became weak. At the same time, he lifted the ice coffin and strode out of the door, not avoiding David at all.
