Chapter 929 Not Part Of The Saunder Family

Book:That Stranger Lying Beside Me Published:2024-6-1

Raelyn was not a fool. How could she not understand what Gavin was going to do? She sneered and said, “Dad, are you trying to secretly leak the information and ask Arthur to destroy the evidence?”
“No! How could I do such a thing?” Gavin originally wanted Arthur to report the situation to Archer. However, he would certainly not admit it even if Raelyn saw through him.
“If you don’t have such thoughts, then follow me to the police station to find out about the situation now. They will definitely speed up the progress on Talitha’s case if you show up.”
Gavin immediately refused Raelyn’s proposal. “It’s getting late and the police officers have to rest. Let’s talk about it tomorrow! You are also tired now. You should eat something to rest first, and then we’ll talk about it tomorrow morning.”
“I’m not tired! I don’t want to eat, I just want to seek justice for my daughter!” Raelyn did not give up.
Gavin was annoyed. Although he had always protected Raelyn, this matter was related to his only grandson. He already had a sinking feeling in his heart. If it was Raymond who did it, he had to keep this matter under wraps no matter how big the price was.
“I’m tired now. I’m old and I can’t stand it anymore. I haven’t eaten yet and my back aches. Arthur, prepare dinner for me and I have to rest. Although you asked me to stand up for you, there isn’t any evidence that Raymond is the culprit, right? Just wait for the notice from the police! That’s it!”
Raelyn was so angry with Gavin’s attitude, but she couldn’t do anything about it. She secretly sent a message to Devon. “My father seems to be biased towards Raymond. What should I do now?”
Devon replied, “I have guessed that this would happen because your father has always been like this. It is absolutely impossible to ask him to help you!”
“So are you saying that Talitha will die in vain?” Raelyn asked.
“What can we do now? Your father is not willing to help and your brother will certainly be concerned about Raymond. I guess he should have arranged for some of his men to destroy the evidence by now. In the end, this matter will have nothing to do with Raymond at all and there is no way to avenge Talitha.”
“I can’t accept it!” Raelyn was filled with hatred.
“What can you do even if you’re upset? The strong will always step on the weak in our world. We’ll never be able to solve Talitha’s case, so you should look forward and treasure your loved ones who are still alive. I have an idea. Since your brother and father feels guilty, why don’t you take this opportunity to ask for money and shares? It’s for Natasya’s sake.”
Raelyn felt inexplicably cold when she heard Devon say this. “Honey, Talitha is your daughter. How can you bear to watch her die in vain like this?”
“I can’t accept it and I can’t bear it, but what can we do? We don’t have the capabilities to go against them! Honey, I think you’d better think it over! If they feel guilty now, we can still state our conditions. If it’s over and they turn against us, we may get nothing! Even if you can’t get anything from your brother’s family, you should try your best to get the shares from your father!”
Although Raelyn felt uncomfortable after reading the message from Devon, it was true that Talitha could not be brought back to life. Archer would protect Raymond at all costs, so she could not let Raymond pay for what he had done. Hence, the only thing she could do was to gain benefits for herself. Now was the best opportunity for her to ask for money from Gavin.
Raelyn began to plan out her scheme as she thought of this. First, she would ask Gavin for a sum of money. After she received the shares from Gavin, her family would be able to regain their wealth and status.
Raelyn was very excited when she thought about Gavin’s shares in Saunders Enterprises. She really wanted to ask Gavin for the shares immediately, but now it was not the time as she had to discuss the details with Devon.
When William left the detention centre, his face was solemn. Raymond and Talitha were waiting for him in the car outside. When they saw William and Bobby coming out, Raymond got out of the car to welcome them. “How did it go?”
“Let’s go back first!” William did not say much, but his gaze lingered on Talitha for a moment. “She’s your responsibility now. Take good care of her!”
Talitha waited for news in the car after seeing Declan and she was incredibly worried.
She didn’t know if Declan would tell William all the secrets. Did William want to know those secrets? If it wasn’t what William wanted, could she still ask be protected by him?
The wait was torturous. She was just afraid that William would suddenly ask her to get lost. When Talitha heard that William had asked Raymond to take care of her, she felt relieved. She was safe now and she didn’t have to worry about being killed anymore.
Talitha was extremely grateful and immediately thanked him. “Thank you, William!”
William did not speak and turned to get into his car. Then, Bobby entered the car as well and started it.
Along the way, William kept silent. Just then, Bobby could not help but ask when he saw that William looked unhappy, “Sir, what did Declan say?”
William massaged his temple. “Declan said the same thing as Gonzalec. Gurmisran has connections with Lucian and he was the one who smuggled Declan’s drugs.”
“Is Gurmisran so capable? I didn’t expect that he could do this at all!” Bobby was very surprised.
“Yes, Gurmisran should not be underestimated and we have been deceived by his appearance. It seems that we should reevaluate this matter again.” William sighed and said honestly, “Declan also told me that my uncle was behind all this. He implied that my uncle killed my mother to obtain the assets of the Floyd family.”
“This is impossible. Your uncle doesn’t seem to be a vicious person.” Bobby didn’t quite believe that Callum was the mysterious figure.
“I don’t believe it either. If my uncle really killed my mother to get the shares, he would never give the Misurton amusement park to Valeria as a gift. He wouldn’t have been so truthful about everything too. However, Declan said that Gurmisran is close to one of my uncle’s bodyguards. Right now, we have to investigate David to see what’s going on.”
Bobby nodded. “I’ll send people to investigate the matter. However, since Gurmisran is a middleman, he must have contacted the mysterious figure behind the scenes. If we keep an eye on Gurmisran, we can find clues!”
“I’ve already sent someone to spy on Gurmisran. There’s one more thing I found out about Raelyn.” William sneered. “Declan suspects that Raelyn isn’t related to the Saunders family at all.”
