Chapter 1305
However, Wayne immediately shut down the iPad’s screen and shot a sharp look at Annie. “Why are you showing us this stuff?”
“I just wanted to ask Did these two families that got wiped out… did they have any connections with Heatherway?” Annie asked, her face pale with difficulty. “Why would you ask that? Rosalynn shot back.
“What you’ve just seen those completely murdered families, plus a couple more you haven’t seen, they’re all linked to Heatherway.” Annie said seriously. “So, when I got wind yesterday that two of your own might have been killed in the same way, I instinctively linked the two.”
“I’m guessing, there might be someone in the Rosso family who loved Heatherway so much that they’re avenging her like this.”
“Absolutely not us” Annie said with certainty. “Some of those wiped out were from the Rosso family too! We might squabble amongst ourselves, but we’d never go for blood”
“Ms. Annie, quit pulling my leg. I know plenty of examples where the Rosso family has gone for each other’s throats. Like, how did your father snatch the leadership of the Rosso family from his brother?” Rosalynn ruthlessly called her bluff.
Annie’s face soured. “Fine, I admit I’ve had my suspicions, and I even conducted some secret investigations, trying to sniff out any rats in the family.”
Annie shook her head. “Everyone’s just doing their thing and minding their own business. No one seemed fishy. But there’s one person I could never track down.” “Who?” Wayne asked.
“Heatherway’s mother. She divorced Heatherway’s father after the family cut Heatherway loose: I heard she remarried low–key in Southeast Asia and hasn’t been in touch with Heatherway for years. She didn’t even show up when Heatherway died.”
Rosalynn studied Annie’s facial expressions as she spoke, finding nothing out of the ordinary.
“So, my hunch was right? It’s inked to Heatherway?”
“Yes. Rosalynn answered directly.
Annie furrowed her brows, her slender figure swaying slightly.
Annie shook her head. “Finding the criminal is more important. By the way, I heard President Silverman has some sway in Southeast Asia. Can you help find Heatherway’s mother? I heard she married the head of a powerful organization there. The way these criminals operate, it could be them.”
Wayne gave a cold smile. “Until I find the real culprit, I’ll suspect every member of the Rosso family.”
Annie looked a bit hurt. “I understand, I’ll do as you suggest. I’ll stay at the hotel until the real culprit is found.”
After that, Annie packed the iPad back into her briefcase, stood up and apologized to Rosalynn. “Looks like we’ll have to rain check our lunch date again. Once President Silverman has everything sorted out, we can catch up.”
“Sure.” Rosalynn replied.
Annie schlepped her bag and walked out with a gloomy look on her face..
People started to head out one by one.
