Chapter 649 I Want to Talk to Her

Ainsley slammed the table forcefully. "It must be her! What on earth is her purpose?’

She’s really had enough of this person, who just won't leave her alone.

After that roar of anger, Ainsley actually calmed down. She sat down and quietly waited.

Half an hour later, Manuel's people finally returned.

' Mr. Gage, she's not at the Packer's home, nor is she at the Packer Group. We've checked the surveillance footage of the area, but we haven't found any clues, other than confirming that she really did leave her residential community."

Ainsley clenched her fists anxiously, and Manuel patted her hand, signaling her to relax.

’I have a plan. Since she wants to act like a turtle hiding in its shell, let's force her out." Manuel's face wore a faint, enigmatic smile.

In the suburban yard, Kaliyah immediately turned on her phone and received the first call from her mother.

"What? My dad got arrested? Why did this happen? Who did this?" Kaliyah couldn't believe that something like this could happen.

Becky complained, "How can you even say that to me? Now tell me honestly, what good deeds have you done this time?’

Kaliyah asked with a puzzled expression, "Why did you say that?"

' After your dad was arrested, I received a phone call. The person on the phone said that you took something very important and demanded that you return it immediately! Otherwise, they would produce more serious evidence, causing your dad to stay in prison for even longer," Becky said as she cried.

Kaliyah instantly knew who was behind this, and it was undoubtedly for the sake of the ashes. However, she didn't expect it to be discovered so quickly, as she originally thought she could stall for a few more days.

She asked with concern, "Mom, please don't cry. What happened this time that got Dad arrested?"

’Tax evasion."

"What? Haven't I always told you not to evade taxes? Once you get caught, it's easy to be found out, and it's not worth taking such a big risk for a small amount of money," Kaliyah said seriously.

Becky became anxious, "There are so many companies in Seattle, and how many of them don't evade taxes? Besides, don’t think that we have a lot of money at home. Ever since you angered the Glover family, our company has suffered severe setbacks. It took us a while to recover, and now this tax issue has been exposed. What's more important is that when your father raised funds back then, he didn't do it legally. I'm afraid... I'm afraid that next time, those people will use this matter to go after your dad."

She was already sobbing, "And where were you yesterday? We couldn't reach you at home, and I called you so many times in the morning, but you didn't answer. What on earth have you done? If you've taken something from someone, return it immediately!"

Mom, don’t worry about this for now, I'll handle it." After saying this, Kaliyah didn't wait for her response and hung up the phone.

She had hidden away after receiving the ashes last night, not knowing that Ainsley would discover it so quickly.

The original plan fell through, and they had to move ahead of schedule. However, if my father was only arrested for tax evasion, he should have been released by now. So why hasn't he?

Unable to find anyone else to ask, she quickly called Daniel and informed him of everything that was happening, hoping he could offer her some advice or share some important information.

Daniel didn't make things difficult for her. "I cant help with your father's situation," he said. "Manuel has something on him, and unless he lets go, no one can do anything about it.

Moreover, I initially thought you had become smarter, but it turns out you're just as foolish as before. Can't you do things more thoroughly? You went to the cemetery and knew to delete the surveillance footage there, but you didn't think to delete the footage at the entrance. However, there’s no need to be overly anxious. Don't forget what you're holding in your hand."
