Chapter 1569: 1569. Either family or trusted confidant
Nathan Linstad was flustered. He knew that if Elly Campbell just walked out like this, it would an he could only take the first path she had given him.
A path that would leave his entire family stuck in the mire for a lifeti, unable to rise.
He knew his life was done for, and the promised comfortable life he had vowed to his mother was now a broken promise.
All the hopes his siblings had placed on him were drowned in his greed for those five million.
He couldn’t let them be dragged down by him anymore, so, even if Elly’s response was indifferent, he had to confess honestly to her.
“I’ll speak, I’ll speak, Mrs. Jones, please give a chance, I’ll tell you everything.”
With tears and snot running down, he knelt before Elly Campbell, appearing absolutely miserable.
This ti, he dared not conceal anything or negotiate, and he told Elly Campbell and her husband everything he knew.
“That’s all I know; I’ve never seen that person, nor do I know who they are.”
Nathan looked at Elly Campbell with sincere, pleading eyes, fearing she would not believe him.
“I can’t contact that person; every ti, they reach out to first, and the phone number is always different.”
He sobbed, his body trembling, “All I know is that she’s a woman with a San Francisco accent.”
After saying this, seeing Elly Campbell and Adam Jones remain silent, Nathan’s heart began to panic again.
“Mr. Jones, Mrs. Jones, everything I’ve said is true; I really haven’t hidden anything this ti, I’ve told you all I know.”
Elly Campbell lowered her eyelids, ignoring him. After a mont, she waved her hand and had soone take Nathan away.
The person responsible for investigating the matter was then called in by Elly Campbell.
Elly Campbell asked a few detailed questions, to which the person nodded and replied:
“He indeed didn’t lie. I checked the phone numbers contacted by Nathan, and they reached out to him on the sa day. I also checked the owners of those numbers; there was no connection among them.”
From this, it was evident that when they contacted Nathan, they used random stolen phones from the street.
As for the woman with the San Francisco accent Nathan ntioned…
Elly Campbell frowned. Random phone numbers weren’t particularly suspicious, but the woman with the San Francisco accent was definitely not chosen at random.
You have to know, what the other party instructed Nathan to do was illegal; the person doing such tasks must be soone she trusts or herself.
Casually finding soone off the street to entrust with such matters would be handing leverage to a stranger, wouldn’t it?
Hence, the person with the San Francisco accent must have very close ties to the mastermind behind this.
Either a family mber or a confidant.
Nathan was rely greedy, with no power and timid; at this mont, he dared not deceive her, so the woman with the San Francisco accent he spoke of should exist.
This ans their investigation has now beco more complicated.
Helen lendy’s family background is simple; she’s an orphan from the orphanage, so it wouldn’t involve any family interests.
She turned her focus to those attempting to ally with the Hall Family, investigating both Nathan and those people.
Foremost among them was the Ainley Clan.
