Chapter 1771
Luna furrowed her brows, unable to register Gwen’s words.
Malcolm actually got Luke to help him find the thing left behind by Heather?
If he wanted it, it was simple. All he needed to do was to attend and give Heather a funeral.
After all, Malcolm was widely known as Heather’s husband, and it was only natural for a husband to take care of the affairs of his deceased wife.
Why, then, did Malcolm not appear when he should have dealt with Heather’s funeral, even waiting for her and Jim to finish taking care of Heather’s funeral before he approached Luke’s men for help?
Why did he go to such extra measures?
Just when Luna was thinking about it, Gwen furrowed her brows and thought for a while before adding, “He was injured when he came here; limping, even. Initially, I couldn’t even recognize him.”
Gwen closed her eyes and thought back about the details that happened that night.
Malcolm came to her two days ago, which was the night when Luna and Jim had finished taking care of Heather’s funeral.
That day, Gwen argued with Luke about the electronic chain again. They were arguing in the living area when one of Luke’s men took the wretched-looking Malcolm in torn clothes in.
Malcolm immediately knelt. He offered five million dollars to get Luke’s men to steal Heather’s possession. He even said that this has to do with his survival, that he would not have come to look for Luke if it were out of desperation.
However, that day, Luke was in a terrible mood. He kicked Malcolm and chased him out. After Malcolm left, the floor was still stained with his blood from kneeling. Gwen remembered every detail clearly.
After recounting all this to Luna, Luna was silent for a very long time.
Theo, by the side, sighed and said, “It looks like Heather’s death has nothing to do with him.”
If Malcolm sent someone to kill Heather, even if there was something in Heather’s hand, they would be able to take it from her. Malcolm would not need to get another person’s help to
steal it.
Malcolm went missing, and his mansion with Heather was even burnt down. If it was not Malcolm, then why would he do such things?
