Chapter 144 A Trap 

The ward that Adams was staying in had always been guarded by bodyguards. Few people could enter and exit freely. Apart from Karley, only Cindy Waller, the nurse who was responsible for taking care of Adams, was allowed to enter and exit the ward that day. 

Karley naturally couldn’t take care of Adams herself, so Anaya asked the private detective to focus all his attention on Cindy. Sure enough, he soon found the problem. 

Cindy had a husband who did not work. He had been unemployed before, but yesterday he suddenly found a well–paid 

job. 

After verification, HR had indeed accepted bribes, which was why Cindy’s husband went to work. 

Aracely went to the detective’s office with Anaya. When she received the news, she almost smashed her cup. 

“Fuck, Karley is too ruthless! Adams is her biological grandfather! How can she do this to him!” 

Anaya patted her hand, indicating for her to calm down, and then looked at the detective again. 

“Do you have concrete evidence?” 

“We only have the record of Karley’s payment for that HR. I’m afraid it will be difficult to testify against Karley with this evidence.” 

Anaya tapped her finger on the brown wooden table and said, “I’ll take it from here. Thank you for your hard work.” 

She paid and took Aracely away. 

After leaving the detective’s office, Aracely asked, “Since the people here can’t get the exact evidence, I’m afraid this matter is not easy to handle… What are your plans?” 

Anaya stopped and stood sideways in the twilight in a gloomy expression. “I need a few people.” 

Aracely was suspicious. “Do you want to make them confess under torture? This won’t have any legal effect…” 

The corners of Anaya’s lips curled up with coldness. “I will let them admit it themselves.” 

Cindy took care of Adams in the hospital until nine o’clock at night and returned home after changing shifts. When she got near home, she saw a few men with sticks wandering downstairs of her house in the distance. 

Cindy was shocked and quickly hid in the small alley at the side. 

The few men downstairs leaned against the wall and chatted. One of them smashed the iron bar in his hand against the wall Cindy’s heart trembled when she heard the sound.
