Chapter 287

Herman was Naylor’s student, so he knew Naylor’s home situation like the back of his hand.

The Naylors was a family of three. The son was off at college and the wife, a sweet housewife.

According to Herman, they lived in a plain, old two-bedroom flat. No signs of anything fishy there.

“Maybe it’s not that we couldn’t find anything suspicious,” Seraphina said, “but rather his wife and son don’t know anything about it. Or else, why would he use his wife’s ID to register a SIM card for Keeley? This way, when Keeley calls him, it wouldn’t raise any eyebrows – I mean, who’s going to suspect a call from home, right?”

If it hadn’t been for Terrell catching Keeley on the phone, they probably wouldn’t have found a thing.

Perhaps it was fate, but their crime ring was nearing its end. The closer they got, the more cracks started to show.

Herman lit one cigarette after another, and after a while, he spoke in a low voice, “It seems that his relationship with Keeley is indeed unusual. If he’s responsible for both Mervin and Maddox’s deaths, why hasn’t he taken any action against Keeley?”

“You’re right, there’s something fishy between them,” Seraphina said. “Keeley even said he’d rather die than rat anyone out. This shows Naylor trusts him absolutely. He knew Keeley wouldn’t squeal, that’s why he didn’t touch him.”

“Trust like that doesn’t just come outta nowhere,” Herman snorted, muttering a curse under his breath.
