Chapter 158 Found Something

“Yes.”

“I wanted to inform you the other day that the homeless man is dead.”

Deirdre was incredulous. “He’s dead? How did he die out of nowhere?”

Sam’s eyes turned gloomy. “I’m not too sure, but I heard that he died from food poisoning. However, I believe that the matter is certainly not as simple as it seems. I believe that Miss McKinney tried to destroy all the evidence in an attempt to hide her tracks after executing her plan.”

Upon hearing that, Deirdre shivered despite not feeling cold and felt a shiver down her spine.

‘How can Charlene be so sinister? She took a man’s life!

‘On the other hand, Brendan is ridiculous. How will he feel when he finds out one day that the woman he trusts and loves is actually a devil?’

She bantered herself in her head and said to Sam, “So, does that mean that dead men tell no tales?”

“I thought so too initially.” Sam smirked. “For that, I looked into the homeless man and found nothing useful other than that he had a homeless friend when he was alive. I didn’t pay much attention to it until yesterday when the homeless man’s friend showed up in the casino.”

Deirdre was momentarily stunned but came to realize something soon afterward. Her expression was tainted with a tinge of joy. “The homeless man’s friend is a homeless man too. He can’t possibly have the money to go to the casino. Something must have happened!”

“That’s right.” Sam stared closely at the woman’s face. Her face was savagely hideous without any sense of beauty, yet he could feel his heart racing when he saw the joy on her face.

He stopped himself from behaving strangely and said, “Hence, I think that it’s highly possible for the man to be the profiteer. He used the homeless man’s mental illness and made him kill Bliss. This is why ther police can’t find anything.”

Deirdre asked cautiously, “Did you manage to find out anything then?”

She was worried that all the effort would be futile.
