Chapter 417 It Was Hayley
Lucas had once told her that Elliot was investigating his kidnapping case back when he was a child, and Anastasia’s mother had also been killed in the very same incident. Therefore, Elliot was trying his best to reopen the case.
That must be what her godfather meant by the situation wasn’t in his favor. He was worried that Elliot might harm him in prison, or if Elliot found out what happened in the past, he would definitely make Riley rot in prison for the rest of his life.
“Miss Aliona, now that Master Riley isn’t here, we will listen to your commands.” The subordinate had a premonition that Riley was at a dead end now, and Aliona was the one who held Riley’s foreign assets.
They could definitely reap the benefits by following her.
Aliona shut her eyes and ordered, “You guys may leave.”
Her godfather would not let her give up just like that because Lucas was making sure that she didn’t abuse her power. Lucas’ son was still kidnapped overseas under the watch of Riley’s subordinates, and she didn’t even know where he was locked up in.
Moreover, she had not inherited her godfather’s assets completely yet, so if she opted out now, it wouldn’t be beneficial for her. She even had to bear the risk of being hunted down.
However, she could bet on Elliot. All she had to do was to give birth to his son and kill him to enjoy the billions of assets from the Presgrave empire.
“Tell Father that I will execute his plan.” Aliona bit her lip, feeling ambitious.
To be able to work alongside a conspirator like Riley proved that Aliona didn’t have an innocent mind.
At Summit Mansion, Rey had sent some men over to carry out investigations and monitoring works. Eventually, they managed to retrieve footage near the communication tracking address. It was a footage of a woman in a call, and she was standing beside the fountain.
According to the GPS location, Rey was pretty certain that it was her who had ordered the security guard to burn the Abyss Club’s server room.
She was the only person who fit the timing and address, after all.
“Do you have any other footage? I want something clearer.”
The security guard tried to search for other footage on the surveillance screens and zoomed in on one of the shots. In that specific footage, Rey could see the woman clearly and widened his eyes in shock.
Indeed, the woman in that footage was Hayley!
“Send me this video,” Rey uttered calmly.
After he returned to the car with this information, Rey dialed Elliot’s number.
“Hello?”
“President Presgrave, according to the GPS location, I just discovered that the person who ordered the security to set fire to the server room is Miss Seymour.”
“What? Are you sure?”
“I’m sure it’s her. I’ll send the information to you in a while.”
After returning to the study, Elliot received the footage sent by Rey. The woman on the screen was indeed Hayley, and she was on the phone.
Elliot trusted that there wouldn’t be a problem with Rey’s sources, and their tracking system under Presgrave Group was even bound to the satellite positioning system to measure accurate time and distance.
Why did Hayley order the security guard to burn down the server room? What secret was she hiding? Elliot’s inner doubts welled up.
Perhaps Anastasia would know better about Hayley.
He then picked up his laptop and got up to find Anastasia. Currently, she was on the second floor reading a pile of material reports sent by her father. It took her a long time to digest a few material terms.
She was already feeling a headache since she wasn’t fit to manage a company.
“Do you have some time to spare? I have something to ask you.” Elliot sat opposite her and showed her his laptop.
Squinting her eyes, Anastasia looked at the woman on the screen, asking, “Isn’t that Hayley?”
“Please forgive me for investigating the incident five years ago without your consent,” Elliot apologized beforehand.
Hearing that, Anastasia was baffled. “Why do you want to investigate this matter?”
“I want to find that b*stard and make him rot in prison.” Elliot’s eyes were cold.
Anastasia quickly recalled a recent call from the host who slept with her before. She knew that he was a time bomb that would explode by her side at any time.
By then, her reputation and her son’s background would be heavily affected.
Therefore, sending him to prison could be the only way to end it once and for all.
“Did I tell you that it was Hayley who arranged for the host to sleep with me?” Anastasia raised her head without evading the question.
Hearing that, Elliot was completely stunned. It was the first time he had heard about this from Anastasia.
