Chapter 675 It’s All Part of the Plan
Because Thomas was leaning over to support Veronica by her arm, she got up and whispered in Thomas’ ear, “Someone is monitoring us. Go check the morgue’s surveillance and see if anyone has touched the body. You should know what to do.”
Hearing that, he frowned as he knew what she meant. “Understood,” he replied without turning his head, for fear that he would be exposed if he did.
Hence, Thomas had no choice but to continue acting with Veronica. “We have to respect the dead. Let’s hurry back to the country. They are all waiting for Young Master Matthew back home.”
After they went to the morgue, Veronica burst into tears while holding the corpse.
Her grief-stricken act was a perfect enactment of how a heartbroken person would be.
While Thomas stood aside to comfort her, he took out his phone and sent a message to someone, asking him to check the surveillance.
Thomas got a reply half an hour later. ‘Someone has definitely touched Young Master Matthew’s corpse.”
Holding his phone, Thomas gently touched Veronica’s shoulder to let her take a look at the screen.
Veronica, who was crying, quickly took a glance. As Crayson couldn’t stand seeing her sad, he chose to stand outside the morgue while taking a smoke.
After that, Veronica took something out of her pocket and passed it to Thomas. “Here. Take this.”
More than an hour later, everyone got on the plane and set off for their journey home.
A few more hours later, Zac got the DNA test report sent to him by his subordinates. “We compared the thing sent by Mr. Conrad with Matthew Kings’ hair. It is definitely him.”
Zac was standing in front of the French windows smoking a cigarette when he listened to his subordinate’s report. With a frown, he reached out to take the report and glanced at it before he shook his head. “He died so easily? It is still unbelievable to me.”
“It sounds about right to me. He is useless, anyway. He can’t escape even if he wanted to. Isn’t he just a fish on a cutting board that life is in someone else’s hands?” his subordinate logically analyzed.
Upon hearing his words, Zac raised his eyebrows slightly. “That makes sense. Tiffany Larson sure helped us get rid of a big problem right there.”
“It is a good thing that Miss Larson only killed Matthew Kings and left Veronica Murphy unscathed. It will be difficult to explain to Flake Denson and for you to completely clear yourself from this as well, Boss.”
“Exactly. The Heavens must be watching over us. Haha!”
As he was suddenly in an ecstatic mood, Zac raised his head and laughed. He then turned around and walked to the couch to sit down before he picked up the wine glass and shot the red wine down in one gulp.
Afterwards, he had his subordinates leave as he gave Conrad a call. “He is dead. The corpse will arrive in Bloomstead in a few hours. You will definitely be on a roll without Matthew in Bloomstead. I hope you don’t disappoint me.”
“Are you sure he is dead?”
Knowing that such a strong opponent had passed away, Conrad was filled with surprise, joy and disbelief.
“I asked someone to compare his hair with what you sent. It can’t go wrong,” Zac gave Conrad a definitive answer.
The person on the other end of the call was silent for a long second before a hearty laughter broke out. “This is great! It is all thanks to Tiffany. It seems that I have to treat her to a meal to thank her some time.”
Conrad had longed for Matthew’s death.
Now that Matthew was finally dead, Conrad’s next plan was to take away all of Matthew’s properties, and personally get rid of Veronica. Only her death could make up for the grievances he had suffered before.
As they considered Matthew a malady, his ‘death’ no longer made them feel the need to be worried.
But what they didn’t know was that Matthew had long expected that they would plan something like this. That was why he had specially given Veronica his hair when he and her met, and they had let them secretly exchange the DNA test results.
