Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies novel Chapter 998

Chapter 998

The owner glanced at her and gave her his phone.

“Thank you.” She took the phone and walked to the side, before making a call. “Hello, Inspector Mckinney. I’m Ashlynn Thompson.”

“Oh, you. What’s up?”

“I want to check with you and see if you know an inspector by the name Marco York.”

“Marco? I know him. What’s wrong?”

“I know him?” Ashlynn had only been gambling with her chances and had not expected him to actually know Marco.

“Yeah. He used to work in Athetin, but was transferred to Luton after crossing the Lloyds.”

“Crossing the Lloyds? What happened?”

“He wanted to look into Lloyd’s family background. He just had too much time in his hand. What’s there to look into? In the end, he caught the attention of Corentin Lloyd. I told him to stop and he just wouldn’t listen.”

“Inspector Mckinney, Inspector York is looking into the murder of the couple that died in the motel in Luton. Corentin and I were in a conflict with that same couple and so Inspector York is coming after Corentin.”

“How could Corentin have anything to do with that? I’ll call Marco later and tell him to stop.”

“You don’t think Corentin is related to the case?”

“Well, you will need evidence to make a claim, don’t you?“1

She was rendered speechless. Corentin had a clean record both in Athetin and Luton, and even if she knew that he was Salvatore, there was nothing she could do.

‘What can I do to turn the table…‘ She considered as she walked out with a plastic bag in hand, only to accidentally bump into someone.

“Ah!” She stumbled and the person in front of her grabbed her by the arm to steady her.

“I’m sorry. Are you alright?”

She turned around and saw a handsome–looking man with decent short hair, who looked like a model that walked straight out of a magazine.

“I’m fine.” She steadied herself and spotted the tag he wore around his neck with the name ‘Gavin Brady‘. “You work for the Lloyd Group?”

“I’ve seen you around. You are Mr. Lloyd’s assistant,” Gavin said.

“I don’t remember seeing you, though…”

“That’s because you haven’t met me in person. I work for the Public Relations Department and have not shown my face in any major meetings.”

“Oh. I know that department.”

It was a department meant to resolve any scandal or conflicts that might bring harm to the Lloyd Group’s reputation.

“Shall we go together?” Gavin asked.

She glanced at the car waiting by the road sheepishly, noticing that the driver had rolled down the window and was staring at them warily.

“It’s fine. I’ll see you in the office,” Gavin said, before leaving.

Ashlynn returned to the car and proceeded ahead toward the Lloyd Group with a dark expression, unhappy that her every move was being watched.

However, she also knew that there was no point for her to be angry at the driver, as the driver was simply following Corentin’s orders.

When she arrived at the office, she went inside to clean. Though it was not dirty at all, she had to make sure that everything was in place and that it was perfectly clean as that was her first task of the day every day.

She would often take the opportunity to check the office for any possible hint that could help defeat Corentin, but had not found anything of this nature so far.

Just as she was almost done, the door flew open and Corentin strode in.

“Let me get you your coffee, Mr. Marwood.” She went out and returned shortly after with a cup of coffee, before setting it down before Corentin. “If you have no further tasks for me, I will go outside now.”

“Hang on.”
