The 5-time Rejected Gamma & the Lycan King

Chapter 165

Chapter 165

Pierre Whitlaw explained nonchalantly, “My wife and her family are extremely successful business people. They gift me all sorts o f branded items on various occasions.”

The prosecutor asked, “So, you’re saying that the government funds which entered into your account were untouched?”

“You clearly have evidence that shows otherwise. Although I admit knowing that the missing Duke channeled some kind of money into my account to force my silence, I do not admit knowing where the money had come from or where it had gone to.”

“You didn’t know that the money being channeled into your account was rightfully the government’s?”

“No.”

“Neither do you know where it was spent?”

“Indeed.”

The prosecutor then said, “Let’s see if I can jog your memory, Mr Whitlaw. Perhaps the funds were spent to help your in-laws and your wife start their businesses?”

There were oohs and ahhs from journalists before Whitlaw answered, “I admit to chipping in a small portion.”

The prosecutor raised an eyebrow and proceeded to comment, “We have a very different definition of the word ‘small’, Mr Whitlaw. You chipped in ninety-five percent of all their businesses, ranging between a few hundred thousand to a million each.”

Whitlaw shrugged despite the gasps from the journalists when he said, “I’ll do anything to help my family.” “Even if it means stealing from the government?” She pressed.

Whitlaw immediately clarified, “Allow me to rephrase. What I meant to say was: I’ll do anything legal to help my family.”

“So, where did the millions you chipped in come from, Mr Whitlaw?”

“I assumed that it was my legit savings. I have been serving the people for a long time, since the late King Lucas’s reign. So, I assumed that what I spent was what I earned.”

“Did you spend a cent of your salary before you met Mrs Whitlaw?”

“Yes, but very frugally.”
