Chapter 887
“Which room was it? Was it at Maple Hotel? Wendy asked anxiously.
Vick chuckled. “No, it’s not. The room in Maple Hotel was afterward, Initially, you were placed in a basement that
Edmund rented temporarily.
“That woman named Larissa, your friend offered herself in exchange for you. She forced Edmund to have you sent
to the Maple Hotel”
“Larissa in exchange for me?”
Wendy was stunned.
Edmund had never mentioned this to her, and neither did Larissa.
However, the way Vick spoke about it didn’t seem like he was making it up.
“Edmund’s ultimate goal was to capture Larissa and bring her back to Caldor. He employed me and my underlings
to keep an eye on her and ensure that she couldn’t escape.
“Since he couldn’t capture Larissa, he took you as leverage instead. He threatened Larissa so that she would meet
him.”
The fact that Edmund drugged her was true, but Werdy had no idea what happened afterward.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she woke up, she and Larissa were lying safely in Maple Hotel
This led Wendy to believe that Edmund had targeted her from the beginning.
Wendy’s heart sank, She tightened her grip on the door handle.
“And then?”
“Then? Then Larissa went to meet Edmund, of course! She’s quite naive. Edmund told her to go alone, and she
really went alone without
anyone else.”
Noticing Kevan’s cold gaze. Vick quickly corrected himsell. “I meant to say that she’s a brave and loyal woman. She
was willing to sacrifice her salely for a friend. She is truly a role model for all of us!”
Kevan still appeared dissatisfied.”
Get to the point”
Vick hurriedly returned to the main topic. “Edmund didn’t send Larissa to the basement where you were kept.
Instead, he had her go to a
motel near the airport.
“After Larissa was captured, she persuaded my men to turn against Edmund. She could have escaped under their
protection at that time. but she put in off for your sake. This was because Edmund had ordered his subordinates to
let you go after he and Larissa arrived at the
airport.
“When they were there, Larissa was nearly put on a plane by Edmund. Fortunately, Mr. Rogers arrived in time to
save Larissa Otherwise, she would have suffered a disastrous late,”
Wendy took a while to process this barrage of information.
She finally spoke, “Where’s the evidence? How do I know if you are not colluding with them to fabricate a story to
deceive me?
“I dare not say that I know the full extent of Mr. Rogers power and influence, but I’m aware of what he is capable of
“We have plenty of evidence!” Vick remained unilazed.
He took out a stack of papers from a black suitcase on the bed,
“This is the contract Edmund signed with me.”
Wendy sneered. “Although you are from a gang, your agreements seem quite formal.”
She took the contract and quickly skimmed through II.

Wendy was familiar with Edmund’s signature. Whenever they went out together. Edmund would sign on the receipts
to pay the bill.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHis signature on the receipt was exactly the same as the one on this contract
Wendy’s confidence started to waver, but she maintained a tough attitude.
“Forging a signature wouldn’t be too difficult for Mr. Rogers to accomplish, right?”
“And there’s this! Vick produced another document.
It was a list of call records from a communications company.
A number that she recognized had appeared several times on it.
Vick seemed very open and straightforward.
“I can let you have a look at my phone! There is absolutely no forgery! These are my bank records.
“Look here, on the night of February 3rd, Edmund gave me a deposit of lilty thousand dollars. You can check this
account, it belongs to Edmund himself, If you still don’t believe me
Vick dialed a number and spoke impatiently to the person on the other end. “Have you brought them here? Why
are you so slow? Did you crawl over here?”
“We are on the way. Mr. Malostov! We will be here in half a minute!” The person on the other end sounded fearful.
After a few minutes, a voice rang out from the phone, “We have arrived, Mr. Malostov! We are at the door, please
open up!”
As the caller hung up, the doorbell to the room rang
Kevan and Vick turned to Wendy.
Kevan said. “Open the door, we have more evidence for you.”
