Chapter 535

Elijah showed up in Leanna’s office a while later.

Leanna told the assistant who led him here to make a cup of coffee.

The assistant was going to do it, but Elijah said, “It’s alright. I’m leaving soon.”

The assistant looked at Leanna, and she closed the door after Leanna nodded.

Elijah took the seat before Leanna’s desk and placed the document folder on the desk. “It’s right here, Leanna.”

“Thanks.” Leanna massaged her temples. “I should’ve taken this myself, but I didn’t have time.”

“It’s alright.” Elijah smiled. “It just so happens that I have work to do nearby, so I thought I would come over. I’ve heard about the case. I asked around on my way here, and it seems like the guys Jimmy talked with last night work for a company that was established about two months ago. They say the boss of the company is a foreigner, but nobody has seen him before.”

Leanna frowned. “So, you’re saying the company is shady.”

Elijah nodded. “Jimmy’s a b*stard, but this isn’t his first rodeo. He’s careful, especially after the company got in trouble. This isn’t a mistake he would make.”

Leanna pursed her lips. “But I saw him and another member of the top brass forcing Maya to drink. And they tried to take her away.”

“That happened back when Maya’s husband was in trouble. Who knows what would have happened to Maya if you weren’t there the other day? She asked for Jimmy’s help, so even if she called the cops on him, he could still say she did it with consent. Or if he did help her, Maya might just cave for her husband.”

Leanna balled her hands that were resting on the table into fists, her brows furrowing into a frown.

Elijah continued, “But this time, not only did the victim not cave, but she’s also trying to break the news to the whole nation. Either they did a sloppy job with her, or this is all a trap.”
