Chapter 555: Chapter 555: Let’s See Who Shows Their True Colors First
In an instant, a chilly light shot from Daniel Marshall’s eagle-like sharp eyes, “Before going out, the driver had taken medicine and the sleepiness led to the accident?”
Adam Howard was serious, “It’s possible, but not necessarily. According to the private doctor, the driver hadn’t asked him for medicine afterwards. His cold seems to have mostly alleviated. Knowing that he’d taken cold medicine, the driver should have avoided taking such a risk. Something seems off here.”
Daniel furrowed his brow unhappily, a sharp iciness sweeping across his handsome face, “Has the driver’s room been searched yet? Any findings?”
“Been searched, found some boxes of medicine, there indeed were cold pills. But we’re not sure if he’d taken them that day. We asked servants and housekeepers at Beverly Hills, they said the driver seemed normal when he left. He didn’t seem tired or off, seemed quite alert actually.”
After thinking for a bit, Adam added, “Right, this driver was on leave actually, called in last minute to take over somebody else’s shift. The regular driver was off sick, he had a stomach issue. Also, this driver had returned from outside, we found out that he and his wife and kids had eaten at a restaurant, his family didn’t have any issues at all, no signs of sleepiness.”
Daniel calmly said, “Even without evidence, I believe it’s more than a coincidence, not just a random accident. The fact that I am not in Serene City when my grandfather experienced this, no matter how I look at it, something seems very off.”
“Daniel, as soon as I received your call, I rushed to the hospital, the driver died due to severe burns. The family rejected an autopsy.
We should respect the dead. It seemed quite ruthless to me, so I didn’t want to disturb the family again. We really have no evidence right now; it all looks like an accident. The final call will be based on the car accident investigation report.”
Daniel’s face looked terrifyingly strained, those eyes filled with bright, swirling rage.
Suddenly, he punched the wall out of anger.
“Have you been keeping an eye on Sebastian Thompson? Has there been any movement from him?”
“He often goes out for morning tea, just with his wife, no contact with anyone else seen. Daniel, do you suspect him?”
Daniel’s cold voice slipped through his gritted teeth, “Everyone who benefits are suspects, it may not be a solo job, could be a group effort.”
Adam spat out in annoyance, “Bunch of bastards! Shameless!”
Daniel’s eyes darkened, the dazzling sparkle was still a sharply glowing spectacle, “Keep the news under wraps, work over all the media. At this time, whoever shows up, it means he cannot keep still any longer, let’s see who shows their foxy tail first.”
“Great idea! If anyone leaks the news, that will give definite proof of a plot.”
The glowing fury in Daniel’s eyes seemed enough to burn a man alive, “When my grandfather wakes up, I’ll hold a press conference. Perhaps, I won’t disclose the news.”
“As for the boss….”
“I’ll discuss it with my Dad. He has no room to disagree, he’ll have to agree. If I find evidence connecting the Thompsons, I won’t let them go.”
“I’ll think about this rationally, I’ll discuss it with Martin Wallace, and get back to you if we hear anything. Daniel, take care.”
“Hmm, thanks for the effort!”
“We brothers have to stick together, no thanks needed! Hanging up now, goodbye!”
Once Daniel hung up the phone, Olivia Jenkins walked over and held him in a tight embrace.
In that moment, Daniel also held Olivia tightly.
Even without a word being spoken, Daniel’s heart felt some comfort.
With him and Olivia there for his granddad, Daniel believed that his granddad could certainly feel it, his granddad would wake up.
