Sweet Subterfuge novel by Trina Duo novel Chapter 483

Kevan was aware of the prospective partnership between Blue Star Shipping and Soaring Corporation.

He had people keeping an eye on Cody's every move. Each action that Cody took was reported to Kevan in a timely manner.

However, he didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Over the past few years, Cody had been throwing money at different investments.

Thanks to Kevan pulling some strings behind the scenes, most of Cody's ventures ended up failing, resulting in a loss of billions of dollars.

Cody himself didn't have that much personal wealth to invest.

He invested in those ventures using the name of Soaring Corporation and embezzled funds from the company.

Now that all of them incurred huge losses, Cody had no way to repay the money he'd embezzled.

The board of directors in Soaring Corporation had started to question Cody about the deficit in their account books.

Because of this, Cody was struggling financially and had been desperate for ways to raise more money.

Naturally, Kevan wouldn't let go of this golden opportunity.

He sent people to brainwash Cody, persistently encouraging him to engage in smuggling operations so that he could make enormous gains in a short period of time.

Kevan knew that Cody was easily manipulated by the words of others, otherwise he wouldn't have been deceived so many times.

When Cody saw that this plan seemed too good to be true, he finally made up his mind to take the risk.

For that purpose, Cody registered a paper company engaging in international trade and hired more than ten employees to make the company seem legitimate.

After that, he began negotiating deals with major shipping companies.

It didn't matter which shipping company Cody partnered up with.

What Kevan needed was to ensure that the collaboration was a success.

Following that, he would enjoy watching Cody fall from grace and let him taste the bitterness of utter despair.

However, Kevan didn't expect Larissa to be involved with Gary Logan.

The most important thing right now was to clarify whether Larissa had a personal relationship with Gary aside from work.

Otherwise, she might blame him later if Gary was implicated as a consequence of Cody getting caught.
