The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 159

The prosecutor got to the point with Alfred Cummings. “Mr Cummings, did your son visit you yesterday?”

“Yes.”

“Did you ask him to testify against the law?”

Alfred glanced briefly at Mr Clark before he uttered, “No.”

“Did you ask him to testify for your case?”

“Yes, but I didn’t tell my son to lie. I’m a father. Every father’s pride is to raise his children with the highest honor and integrity.”

“You insisted that your properties were acquired by your son as gifts. Do you have proof of these transactions?”

“I’m afraid that is something I do not have. I was decluttering my home a few years back, and I must have

cleaned out the documents recording the transactions.”

“And do you have evidence transferring government funds to Helena Tanner?”

“I’m afraid not. The transfer was done discreetly so there aren’t any documents to prove it.”

“Did you hand Helena Tanner the funds through bags of cash, Mr Cummings?”

“I—” he was about to answer when Mr Clark’s look seemed to be advising him to do otherwise, so he choset o say, “I don’t recall.”

“You don’t recall?” She took one step closer and asked again, “You don’t recall how you transferred money i n the billions to Helena Tanner?”

“Yes.”
