I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 579

Chapter 579 He Is Quite the Sneaker

At the Crossley Group, Freddie had been helping Leanna to look through the documents. However, there were still many documents left waiting for her signature.

The moment Leanna sat down, Richard rushed into the room and said, "I just got the news that someone bailed Raymond out of jail, Miss McKinney."

When Leanna heard his words, she stopped what she was doing. "Out of jail? I thought he was proven guilty of murder. Why is he still able to get out on bail?"

"The evidence has been verified, and he is indeed proven guilty. However, things changed after Mr. Ollander visited him. After Mr. Ollander came back, the police suddenly said that there wasn't enough evidence and needed to investigate the case again. "

"When did Jimmy visit him?" asked Leanna while frowning.

"It was the day when the Pearson Group had a press conference."

After hearing his words, she pursed her lips and said nothing. The evidence for Raymond's case is clear, yet Jimmy still withstands the pressure and finds a way to bail him out. Judging by their relationship, Jimmy is in a sticky situation himself, so there is no way he will risk saving Raymond. That is, Raymond must have promised Jimmy something that the latter couldn't resist, she thought.

"Raymond was bailed out last night. Up until now, he is still under the watch of the police. After he left the police station, he stayed in his house all day and did nothing, not even meeting up with Mr.

Ollander. It seems that nothing is going on," Richard said.

Leanna thought momentarily and said, "Jimmy is in a hurry to leave this place. That's why he's trying to create a stir to get himself out of trouble. Still, he is different from Raymond. He has not killed anyone and is just in the process of being investigated. Hence, there is no way he will risk getting arrested by escaping. Raymond, though…"

"Are you saying that Raymond might secretly leave, Miss McKinney?"

"Definitely." After all, it was true that Raymond had blood on his hands. Although Jimmy had bailed him out, Raymond knew the police would soon arrest him again. Hence, he would leave this place as soon as possible.

Suddenly, Leanna thought of something. "Have you seen Raymond's children before?" she asked.

"Yes." Richard nodded.

"I need you to go to his house on behalf of the company and ask him to explain this matter. Also, tell him how the company will deal with this and see if his children are there or not. After that, call me immediately."

At the Crossley Group, Freddie had been helping Leanna to look through the documents. However, there were still many documents left waiting for her signature.

"Okay."

After he had left, she was still frowning. She wondered how Raymond would escape if he was

constantly being watched.

"Okay."

After he had left, she was still frowning. She wondered how Raymond would escape if he was constantly being watched.

Just as she was deep in thought, Freddie entered the room. "What's with the look?" he asked while waving his hand in front of her.

Leanna returned to her senses and said, "Jimmy has bailed Raymond out of jail."

When Freddie heard that, he was not surprised. He clicked his tongue and commented, "That man is quite the sneaker."

"They must have been on to something, but I can't figure it out. I don't understand what temptation Raymond gave to Jimmy for him to risk himself getting caught."

"Oh, yeah. There is something you might not know about Raymond. Except for getting in touch with the Pearson Family, someone else is also helping him."

"Someone else?" Leanna was startled.

He nodded and explained, "When it happened, Raymond took them away. Moreover, before this, he had been trying to get close to Celia. These days, he is acting normal, and there is no proof that he has directly come in contact with the Pearsons. Plus, he used to escape from the guards and went to the Pearson Family twice."

As Leanna heard his words, she furrowed her eyebrows deeply. "I have investigated him, but there is nothing suspicious about him."

"That's the problem." Freddie snapped his fingers. "There is nothing wrong with his lifestyle. However, before that, a group of people had contacted him. They even told the Pearsons about this, which means there is a high possibility that they are Raymond's last resort."

"Who are they?"

"I'm not sure. However, they aren't as simple as they look since they know about this. Plus, they came prepared. Thus, it's best to leave it as it is for your safety."

Leanna was silent. After some time, she asked, "Aidan asked you to tell me about this, didn't he?" Although Freddie didn't mention anything about him and was subtle with his words, Leanna managed to figure it out.

Damn it. How did she know? Freddie was in utter shock.

"Give me your account," said Leanna.

"Why do you want it?" Freddie was confused.

"Why do you want it?" Freddie was confused.

"You are working for the Crossley Group. Don't you want your payment?"

At that, Freddie chuckled dryly and said, "Come on… It's not a big deal. You guys are only fighting, that's all." Aidan is always the one paying me. Judging by Leanna's words, is she trying to cut ties with him?

"Give it to me later," said Leanna.

Looking at her, he was suddenly interested in her business. "Do you want to go through a divorce? I can help you for free."

When she heard his words, she raised her head and looked at him stoically. "Thanks, but no. I'm not married."

"What about the custody of your child? I can do that too, and I'll make sure you win the rights."

Leanna was speechless.

Just as she raised her hand, Freddie backed away quickly and said, "I'm just joking."

Leanna ignored him and went back to dealing with the documents. After some time, Richard called her and told her that Raymond's mother had taken his children away before Raymond was out of jail.

"I have sent someone to check on Raymond's hometown. Besides, everything in his house looked neat as though he hadn't touched them. Although he tried to look calm, I could tell he wanted me to leave as soon as possible. I guess you are right, Miss McKinney. He'll be leaving Highside soon." This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

"He will leave tonight at the latest," replied Leanna.

After she hung up the phone, Freddie asked her, "What do you have in mind?"

"What are you talking about?" As she spoke, she stared at her phone thoughtfully.

"I have a feeling that you will do what Aidan doesn't want you to. That's why I want to know what you are planning to do about this matter," replied Freddie as he cocked an eyebrow.

"Are you trying to sell me out?" Leanna looked at him.

"No way!" Freddie said exaggeratedly. "I'm not a kid. Why would I still snitch on you? I'm just curious. Come on, tell me."

Leanna lowered her head and said, "Nothing. I'm not planning anything."

Freddie didn't believe her, though. However, he knew that she would not tell him anything. It looks like I have to put on some effort and keep an eye on her. Once this matter is done, I'm going to ask Aidan for a raise, he thought.
