Chapter 998

The owner glanced at her and gave her his phone.

“Thank you.” She took the phone and walked to the side, before making a call. “Hello, Inspector Mckinney. I’m Ashlynn Thompson.”

“Oh, you. What’s up?”

“I want to check with you and see if you know an inspector by the name Marco York.”

“Marco? I know him. What’s wrong?”

“I know him?” Ashlynn had only been gambling with her chances and had not expected him to actually know Marco.

“Yeah. He used to work in Athetin, but was transferred to Luton after crossing the Lloyds.”

“Crossing the Lloyds? What happened?”

“He wanted to look into Lloyd’s family background. He just had too much time in his hand. What’s there to look into? In the end, he caught the attention of Corentin Lloyd. I told him to stop and he just wouldn’t listen.”

“Inspector Mckinney, Inspector York is looking into the murder of the couple that died in the motel in Luton. Corentin and I were in a conflict with that same couple and so Inspector York is coming after Corentin.”

“How could Corentin have anything to do with that? I’ll call Marco later and tell him to stop.”

“You don’t think Corentin is related to the case?”

“Well, you will need evidence to make a claim, don’t you?“1

She was rendered speechless. Corentin had a clean record both in Athetin and Luton, and even if she knew that he was Salvatore, there was nothing she could do.

‘What can I do to turn the table…‘ She considered as she walked out with a plastic bag in hand, only to accidentally bump into someone.

“Ah!” She stumbled and the person in front of her grabbed her by the arm to steady her.

“I’m sorry. Are you alright?”
