Chapter 197 Tampered with Mr. Davis's Medication

After a long silence, Nathan spoke up, "Maybe neither of them lied. The one who lied... could be Mr. Davis himself."

Penelope was startled. "Mr. Davis?" she said, stunned.

Nathan rationalized, "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Davis probably approached Kelvin with the idea of giving Anthony half the shares to support his half-brother. But obviously, Kelvin wouldn't have liked that. Mr. Davis knew his son's nature that it would take time to negotiate, not something that could be settled quickly.

"So, Mr. Davis planned to lay his cards on the table with Kelvin, share his thoughts, and then negotiate. However, that evening, Anthony's girlfriend turned up pregnant at the Davis family estate, causing Mr. Davis to become irate. In his anger, he blurted out that he wouldn't give him any shares, which must have left Anthony disgruntled.

"In wealthy families, lineage is paramount, but they don't just accept any child a woman claim is theirs. That night, the Davis family was likely all present, dealing with Anthony's scandal, and Mr. Davis's statement made Anthony feel humiliated and hopeless.

"And then the next day..." Nathan's face grew somber. "The car accident happened. Mr. Davis was critically injured, and in the emergency treatment by Mr. Cooper, a medication error occurred, hastening Mr. Davis's death."

The silence filled the private room after her words.

After a moment, Penelope spoke up, "Is there any chance that even the car accident was a conspiracy?"

Nathan shook his head, and said, "That's unlikely."

"Why not?" she asked.

Nathan explained, "How many people could orchestrate a car accident right under Kelvin's nose and deceive his eyes? After Mr. Davis' death, Kelvin must have had his people thoroughly investigate and confirm it was an accident before they pinned all the blame on Mr. Cooper."

Penelope picked up where Nathan left off, "So, the accident was an unforeseen disaster. And Lily and Anthony, seeing it as an opportunity, ruthlessly decided to go all

in and switched Mr. Davis' medication, leading to... his death."

Nathan concluded, "It's very likely that the truth is just as you've described."

"But..." Penelope closed her eyes, her voice drained, "there's no evidence."

How could they find evidence now?

Mr. Davis had been dead for over two years, and whatever traces there might have been had grown cold; the hospital staff had long since changed.

"We won't find evidence, Penelope. If Anthony had left any trail, Kelvin would have discovered it by now," Nathan pointed out.

Penelope at a loss, asked, "What do we do then..."
