Chapter 1788 Lucas, in the driver’s seat, furrowed his brows and said, “Sir, it truly is heartwarming. If only…
Lucas sighed and continued, “If only the person by Ma’am’s side is you. That’d be better.”
Joshua closed his eyes and leaned back. He gracefully leaned back on the leather seat.
“How are you getting on with the matter you were asked to investigate?”
Lucas paused for a while before collecting his emotions. He reported seriously, “We found out something.
“Although the person called Todd who crashed into Heather is now based in Merchant City, twenty years ago, he was living in Banyan City, like the Landrys and the Quinns. Initially, he was just an ordinary truck driver.”
Lucas paused for a while before he added, “One of the drivers who used to be close to Todd said that one night, Todd knocked on his door and said that he murdered someone, saying that he needed to be on the run.
“Because Todd borrowed quite a lot of money from him before Todd left, he remembered the date Todd ran away clearly. It was…the day of Colin Landry’s accident.”
Joshua squinted a little.
Todd was just an ordinary truck driver before killing Colin in Banyan City. That meant that after escaping to Merchant City, he got into a gang and even became the leader of one of the largest gangs in Merchant City.
He was only a truck driver. How did he manage to climb up the ranks in the gang?
Someone must have protected and assisted him.
Before Joshua interfered, Merchant City had always been under the rule of the Quinns and the Landrys. If that was the case, the family that had been protecting Todd must either be the Landrys or the Quinns.
However, the victims that Todd killed with his truck were from the Landry family. That meant that it could only be the Quinns.
Coincidentally, Heather had something to do with the Quinns, too.
At that thought, Joshua sighed. Granny Lynch has passed away for more than a year. If she was still alive and knew about this news, she would have been happy, right?
