The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin) novel Chapter 975

Chapter 975 What kind of care

Anthony was silent.

He already knew what he wanted to ask.

He heard that Malcolm had already been to the Callahan family once before coming here, and he came after him after finding out that he came to South Sea.

He knew that Malcolm had a clear goal in doing things, and if there was nothing urgent, he didn't have to chase after him.

"What did I do to trouble you to come here yourself? What does the National Investigation Bureau's case have to do with me? I haven't done anything illegal recently."

Malcolm just smiled lightly and thought he could continue to pretend.

"Whether it has anything to do with you or not, it doesn't matter what you say."

"What do you mean?"

"Nothing, I heard that there was a gun battle here yesterday."

Anthony was taken aback, and didn't expect the news to come so fast.

Thinking of Jaqueline who was shot and fell into the sea, he lowered his eyes and calmly helped Malcolm fill up the tea.

"You're really well-informed, but I'm afraid you didn't come to me because of yesterday's shootout?"

Malcolm took a sip of the tea, taking his time.

Anthony waited until he finished drinking the tea, and then smiled in relief, "Psychologically speaking, your actions just now are to test its authenticity. Have you understood?"

Malcolm chuckled. "You used to be the Director of Security Agency, the most proficient in scheming, and the best at psychological tricks. Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you."

After drinking a cup of tea, Malcolm continued, "I heard that you recently brought back a woman named Jaqueline?"

Anthony's hands froze when he said it, and his face was a little pale.

"Yes, she saved me before. Both of her parents died, and there was only her grandma by her side. Later, her grandma also passed away. In order to repay her kindness, I promised to take care of her."

"What kind of care?"

Malcolm asked.

Anthony lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time before asking, "Are there many types of care?"

"Certainly."

Malcolm sneered. "Relatives, lovers, and friends have completely different ways of care. By which one do you treat with Jaqueline?"

He stopped talking.

Malcolm was upset. No wonder Mavis was not right and even Lyra was unhappy. What kind of thing did this guy do!

The atmosphere was dull for a while before Anthony said, "Jaqueline is dead."

"Dead?"

Malcolm was surprised, "So suddenly?"

"You knew that there was a gun battle yesterday. Jaqueline blocked a shot for me and died. Her body fell into the sea, and I am already sending people to salvage it."

Malcolm rubbed his forehead, feeling a little complicated. Observing Anthony's reaction, he didn't speak.

It seemed that the degree of his sadness was not considerable. Was he too cruel, or did he not love Jaqueline at all?

But if he didn't love her, why should he abandon Mavis because of Jaqueline?

Suspicion was deep in his heart, and Malcolm asked the key point directly, "Before this, did you know Jaqueline's true identity?"

Anthony shook his head, "I always thought she was an ordinary fisherwoman from a fishing village. She disappeared suddenly a while ago, but she said she was traveling in the mountains. It sounded strange. Later, I caught her stealing the company's confidential documents so I kicked her out of the company, and then there was an incident at the port..."

He recounted in detail what happened to Jaqueline recently. "... I didn't know her true identity until she was dying."

Malcolm saw that he was not in a good mood. Obviously Jaqueline's death still had a certain impact on his mood.

The clue here was completely connected, but the location of Sheldon was not easy to search.

That place was very chaotic, on the verge of the borders of two countries, and the terrain was complicated. If the two sides really fought, it was not certain who will win.
