A Crazy Night Novel

Chapter 626 There It Is

The check of two hundred thousand on the desk seemed to be beckoning at her. Powerless to resist, Macy nodded.

“Yes. The Gibson family and the Hadley family were partners on a large project. To attain the approval of the board and become the CEO, Nigel worked hard on the project. He was the one who recommended the supplier to Timothy.”

“What is the supplier’s name?”

“That’s the third question, Christina. Up the price.”

Macy was no fool. She guessed that Christina was investigating the accident, which Nigel was inextricably linked to.

Sebastian produced a check written out for three hundred thousand and placed it on top of the earlier one. Macy reached out to grab them but could not yank them free.

“You haven’t answered Mrs. Hadley yet, Mrs. Gibson,” Sebastian reminded her.

Macy withdrew her hand sheepishly. “Nigel never shared his business dealings with me, so I can’t give you a name.

“Keep going. What else do you want to know? I’ll tell you everything as long as the price is right.”

Christina realized that Nigel’s marriage was not as perfect as they made it seem to the world. She would not uncover anything important if she persisted with the line of questioning through Nigel.
