The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 763

Lyra, who had hung up the phone, pondered for a moment at her computer and decided to call Anthony.

Anthony, who has been cleaning toilets for a month, was in a meeting at the Callahan Group.

When Lyra's name came up on his cell phone screen, he almost immediately took a serious look, paused the meeting, and went out to answer the phone, leaving a befuddled group of Callahan executives.

"Rara, what's so important you're calling me at this hour?"

Lyra said seriously, "Something happened to the Stone family. The whole family is dead. Did you know that?"

Anthony said, "I just saw the news this morning and I haven't paid any attention to it. Is that why you called me?"

He quickly realized, "You think I did it?"

"The Stone family was on the verge of quitting the upper-class circle. Dylan Stone's family didn't have many enemies before he died. The last time he had an argument with someone was at the Callahan Group because of what happened between you and Nevaeh..."

Anthony listened quietly and smiled sarcastically. "So you suspect me?"

Before Lyra could answer, he said, "Lyra, you think too highly of me. I don't have the ability to kill over a hundred people in one night. I wouldn't kill anyone if I have to kill Nevaeh."

Lyra sighed. "I know it wasn't you. I didn't think that way."

Anthony's face barely returned to normal.

Lyra continued her analysis with a straight look, "I don't think it's that simple. Although the Stone family is down and out, it's still a wealthy family. If there's no grudges, could it be that the enemy isn't here for the Stone family, but for the entire wealthy family of Suham?"

On top of that, at first blush, Anthony was bound to be brought in for questioning by the NIB.

The case was so serious that Malcolm had to handle it himself.

Could they be after the Lloyd Family, White Family, Callahan Family, the three big families?

Anthony thought for a while. "After this meeting, I'll go to the Stone Residence myself, meet Malcolm, and have a chat with him."

"Well, be safe."

A casual word of courtesy before hanging up warmed Anthony's heart.

He rubbed his finger over the note he'd given Lyra on his phone screen. Lyra hadn't contacted him in a long, long time, so long that he hadn't even changed the name on his phone.

After a while, he cleared his mind, turned back to the conference hall, and resumed the meeting.

More than twenty minutes later, the meeting was quickly concluded and Anthony left the room.

Zack walked up to him slowly and said in a low voice, "Mr. Callahan, just now... I met Madam. She said she has something she wants to talk to you about in person."

Anthony didn't have to think too much but knew Mavis would be talking about the massacre at the Stone Residence.

His face looked stern and he rejected him decisively. "No, we're in the company. There is no madam here, only employees. She is an intern in the logistics department. Tell her to stay in the department and work. Don't even think about going to the president's office."

Zack bowed slightly. "Yes."

With that, Anthony went back to the office, grabbed his suit and jacket, and headed to the elevator and the underground garage.

Twenty minutes later, when he arrived at the scene of the tragedy at the Stone Residence, the entire NIB was still on the spot to verify evidences.

There was a police cordon two metres away and a group of policemen were blocking the way. They could not even get within 100 metres of the Stone Residence.

There were a lot of reporters on the scene, waiting for the murder of the first news developments.

Anthony stood in the crowd and couldn't get in.
