Chapter 503

Leanna's expression didn't change as she looked at Jimmy. "What do you think, Mr. Ollander?"

Jimmy did not dare show any weakness before a lawyer like Freddie, so he wiped off his sweat and muttered, "W-What do I think?"

"What Mr. Sutton said just now. If you didn't hear it, I can ask him to repeat it."

"I heard it," Jimmy said reluctantly. "This is what happened—all these contracts were under Mr. Crossley's jurisdiction when he was still here. You all know what happened after that, and well… I don't really know the details and only these were found after we organized everything."

Freddie said again, "Are you saying that all the other contracts have been destroyed by Mr. Crossley?"

"Maybe?"

Freddie laughed at that. "That's interesting. All these available contracts have his signature on them, and all the issues mentioned can be linked to him. If he didn't destroy these, I wonder what he already destroyed."

Jimmy swallowed. "M-Maybe this isn't much compared to those he destroyed? Maybe those are far more mysterious or contained secrets he didn't want anyone else to know. That could be it, right?"

"Are you asking me?"

"No, no. It was just a guess of mine."

Freddie sighed. "Fine. Looks like I'll have to get the proof myself by slowly uncovering the secrets contained in those contracts."
