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.

Despite a couple’s marital vows, each will save themselves when disaster strikes. Besides, Nigel was the one to throw me under the bus first. I’m only repaying the favor.

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. What I do know is that they have formed a company together over the years, with Nigel taking the lion’s share of the profits. He’s even the largest shareholder, wielding absolute power.”

Christina could tell that Macy’s narrative largely corroborated with what Nathaniel told her.

The possibility of Nigel being the mastermind was more or less established, but without evidence, everything they knew could just as easily change.

Christina signaled Sebastian to hand over the money.

Macy could hardly conceal her greed at the sight of the checks in her hands totaling close to a million. She motioned at Christina impatiently.

“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.
