Chapter 453
“What do you mean by that? illegal money?! My work and money are legitimate!” York denied it, a tinge
of guilt in his eyes.
The mediator changed the topic and asked casually, “By the way, I went to your parent’s house
yesterday and talked to them. Your parents have a heavy Solarian accent. Are they Solarian?”
“Yeah. My parents used to live there.”
“Are you from Solana too? Why did you settle in San Marco? Solaria is much better than San Maroc,”
the mediator chatted as if making small talk
“There’s too moth pressure in a big city. It’s smaller here, but life is comfortable.”
“Right.” The mediator smiled and added abruptly. “I almost forgot to mention. The guy you hurt wanted
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtme to ask you about Ms. Hall. He wants you to do as he says and pay up, otherwise, he’ll tell the public
and expose you.”
“Ms. Hall.
York’s face paled slightly, but he tried to hide his panic. “I don’t quite understand what you mean by
exposing me, but I was a witness in a case some years ago. The deceased victim was a famous
woman in Solaria. Ms. Hall died a horrible death. That’s why it is better not to drive drunk. Ms. Hall
wouldn’t have been hit by a car if it wasn’t for a woman who was driving drunk.”
York seemned unwilling to recall the story. He shook his head, but he seemed to have doubts. “Huh?
But why would the guy i fought with the other day mention Ms. Hall for no reason?
וד
“I don’t know about that. Why don’t you meet that guy after your release?” the mediator suggested.
The two chatted a little longer, but the mediator could not get anything useful out of York. Finally, the
mediator came to the next room and said to Serenity, “Sorry about that ”
“It’s fine.” Serenity had a small smile. She had expected this. She knew it would be hard to get the truth
with just one try. However, York had claimed that he had earned the money for the house by helping his
friend with his business. Would the source of the fund lead them to the person who had made her the
scapegoat? Serenity thought about it.
After the mediator had left, Terry spoke, almost as if answering Serenity’s thoughts at the moment, “I’ve
checked the source of the money for York’s property. Someone deposited 750 thousand dollars into his
account. The person who made the transfer was indeed a friend of his. But why did he pay 750
thousand dollars to him? I need to check again. After all, it’s been three years, and his friend has
already moved abroad.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Did he really make some money for his friend? Did his friend give him a bonus or commission for it?
But isn’t that too much? York is just a small–time employee. Could he really have helped his friend to
make a fortune?” Lisa sneered.
“We’ll have to look into that,” Terry replied.
“okay. I’ll someone to livestigate,” Jackson stared down at Serenity. “I’ll have someone look into it.
Don’t worry. I’ll help prove your innocence, just as you wish ”
Jackson could prove her innocence as long as the truth remained hidden. He wanted to satisfy her and
make her happy.
Serenity looked at Jackson in a daze. Did he really believe in her innocence? Was he willing to help in
finding the evidence?
“oh? That would be great! Lisa was thrilled. “We’ll definitely overlum Serenity’s conviction with Mr.
Valor’s help!”
