The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 964

Chapter 964 Search His Workplace

As soon as Cory finished speaking, he suddenly heard a rustle. He carefully lifted his head and saw Lucian standing up from the desk, walking in his direction.

Lucian was already exuding a domineering aura when he was seated. Cory only felt suffocated when the man suddenly stood up.

Lucian stood before Cory with a straight face. In an icy voice, he said, “It’s a slip-up on my part. You’re a private investigator. It’s only natural for you to speak after I pay you.”

With that, Lucian glanced at Cayden. Cayden understood instantly. He got a check and handed it to Lucian. Cory only heard the sound of light footsteps. Then, a slender and defined hand was waving a check before his eyes.

“Tell me who did it, and this check will be yours. You’re free to write whatever amount you want,” Lucian said in a softer tone.

Cory fixed his eyes on the check.

He had been a private investigator for many years. Naturally, he only had his eyes on the money.

Cory knew that the amount he could write on the check promised by Lucian was nearly limitless.

If the things from yesterday had not happened, he would have sold Aubree out in a heartbeat.

Unfortunately, Lucian was angered by the things that had happened yesterday.

In just a matter of minutes, Cory had thought of all the possibilities.

Aubree would probably drag me down together if I were to sell her out. She might even tell Lucian that I was the one who told her about Roxanne and the other’s whereabouts. What if Aubree told Lucian that I saw her doing everything but chose to do nothing?

No matter how awful Aubree has been, she’s still someone acquainted with Farwell Group. On top of that, she’s the daughter of a wealthy family.

As long as Lucian cares about the Pearsons’ reputation, the only one to suffer will be me!

Cory made up his mind at the thought of that.
