Chapter 584 Will You Come Tomorrow?

After returning to the Crossley Group, Leanna went through the documents that her assistant had sent over. When she checked the time after that, she realized it was almost 6.00PM.

Soon, Richard came in and said, "Miss McKinney, the police station just sent word that the trial for Raymond's case has been expedited, and the verdict will be handed down soon. He's basically going to get the death penalty. The case has implicated Mr. Ollander extensively, and they're still investigating it. I heard he's been trying to use his connections to get himself out and even tried to pin all the blame on Raymond. However..."

"However, what?"

"Pearson Group has managed to suppress it all, so no one dares to help him now. But the problem now is that he denies any involvement in the smuggling ring and claims he knew nothing. He claimed that he only did everything under the orders of Mr. Crossley before this. If they can't find solid evidence after the detention period, there's a chance that Mr. Ollander might be released."

Leanna pursed her lips upon hearing that. It seemed like he not only wanted to shift the blame onto Raymond, but he also wanted to dump all these dirty dealings onto Leroy. If he succeeded, he could turn from a perpetrator into a victim who didn't know anything. Raymond was already a murderer, so no matter how many cases he was charged with, it all seemed like a natural progression. And they wouldn't be able to find anyone on Leroy's side, leaving them without any evidence. What a well-played scheme.

"Send all the evidence we've collected to the police station and contact Jessamine. If she's willing to, she can come forward to sue Jimmy. As for the other victims, try to find them. We can't let him leave the police station no matter the charges that will be brought against him," Leanna said.

"Okay." Richard nodded.

With that, Leanna got up. "If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

She had only taken two steps when Richard's voice rang from behind. "Miss McKinney." Hearing that, Leanna turned around. "What is it?"

Richard hesitated for a bit, seemingly unsure. Even so, Leanna didn't rush him and waited to listen to what he had to say. "I-I haven't had a chance to apologize to you with all that's been happening these past few days…"

"Apologize?"
