Loredana also curbed the smile on her face, knowing that Oscar was concerned about her, “I will be careful.”
“I’ve seen all the rich people in City C, but I’ve never seen him. I don’t know where he comes from.” Oscar said.
“He is not from City C?” Loredana frowned. She became serious. She had just received the photos a while ago and now this thing happened, was it a coincidence, or …
If Oscar did not say he was not from City C, she would not think so much. When Oscar said that he was not from City C, she was suspicious.
Could he be someone who had a problem with Cormac? Did he find out about her existence and deliberately come after her?
“I’m not sure, but I know every rich people in City C. Do you think I’ve stayed in C for so many years for nothing? JK is a huge group and I’m the president, what kind of people I have not dealt with?” Loredana did not wish to joke with Oscar. After seeing the photos, she was always afraid that Cormac would get into some kind of trouble. Moreover, the two children were with him.
“Uncle, do me a favour.”
“What do you want, just tell me, no need to be so polite. What kind of relationship do we have? You call me uncle for nothing?” Oscar pretended to be angry, not wanting Loredana to be too distant from him. She was unwilling to accept JK and did not spend a single penny from JK, so it was clear that she had a knot in her heart towards Jolene and Stanley.
In fact, that was not a knot. She just wanted to rely on herself.
That was her habit which she had developed since childhood. She had no one to rely on when she was young. She had to rely on herself even if she was suffering.
Not to mention that the situation now was a thousand times better than that time.
“Amanda’s and Andrew’s father was in City B, WY Group, you shall have heard of it.”
Oscar flickered his gaze unnaturally for a moment, then he responded, “I’ve heard of it, just ask for anything you want me to do.”âââââââââââââââ?/p>
“I want you to help me find out if he’s encountered anything over there,” Loredana said.
Now, her heart was getting more and more uneasy.
Especially since Oscar said that the man was approaching her intentionally just now.
Oscar was a person who looked unassuming, but he actually did things in a very reassuring way. In the short time she stayed with him, he had never let her down in his work, so she thought that Jolene and Stanley had chosen him because they knew about his character well.
Now she was really glad that she had called Oscar, otherwise, she did not know if she would run into trouble.
She was confused and her brain hurt. She rubbed her temple.
“Are you still worried?” Oscar asked.
In fact, he wanted to say that he had seen Cormac and he was downstairs.
He did not know that Loredana had already known that he came.
“Yea, the two kids are with him.” Loredana supported her forehead with one of her hands.
“You’ve met?” Oscar was shocked, “Has the two kids followed him to City B already?”
Loredana whispered, “He didn’t show up, he asked his friend to pick them up.”
“Just don’t worry, I think you don’t look good, rest well, I’ll help you investigate,” Oscar said.
“Hmm.” She felt tired.
After a while, the car stopped at the entrance of the neighbourhood. Loredana unbuckled her seat belt and pushed the door to get down, “You drive slowly.” Oscar said that he knew, “Take care of yourself.”
Loredana smiled at him, turned around and walked into the neighbourhood. After returning to her place, she went into her bedroom and lay on the bed.
She was tired but she was unable to fall asleep. She grabbed her mobile phone and flipped to Armand’s and Boyce’s numbers. She had changed her mobile phone, but she still had their numbers saved and had not deleted them.
She wanted to call and ask for information but was hesitant to do so.
In the end, she gave up calling.
When she put her phone down, the news pushed by the system popped out on the top of the screen. At first, she wanted to delete it as she had got used to this kind of news every day. However, when she deleted it, she accidentally clicked in. It was a piece of news about Jeffrey.
She clenched her phone suddenly and her arm kept trembling.
It was clear that she did not want to read anything about him as she had left in the first place because she did not want to pay any attention to this matter.
However, she could not help but scrolled down.
The text that followed was not accompanied by any photos of Jeffrey.
Jeffrey was sentenced to two years in prison. It was a respite. Two years of probation was not serious. The full name of probation was ‘suspended execution of punishment’ which referred to the violation of the law and after the statutory procedures confirmed that he had constituted a crime, the perpetrator who should be punished was first pronounced a conviction and then suspended the execution of the sentence imposed.
Probation was a system whereby a specific inspection body examined the offender for a certain period of time and decided whether to apply a specific sentence according to the offender’s performance during the trial period, in accordance with the law.
If a criminal who had been pronounced on probation was not at fault and had a correct attitude during the probationary period, the original sentence would no longer be carried out and would be publicly pronounced upon the expiry of the probationary period.
The Harris family was once prestigious. However, at this time, although the family was not destroyed, it was still disgraced and infamous.
Such a result would make Jeffrey more suffered than killing him.
She put down her mobile phone and looked at the ceiling. She thought that she had no feelings for the Harris family, but when she saw such a result, she still felt a little turbulent.
It was not deep, just melancholy and emotional.
If it was talking about heartache, she felt pain for Victoria’s death.
Jeffrey had caused the man she loved to lose a mother, caused her children to lose a grandmother and caused her to face the people she loved with a guilty heart forever.
Ring ring —
The doorbell rang suddenly, she rolled over but did not get up. It was just she and Theresa in the house now. Theresa knew the password of the door. There was no need for her to open the door from inside. Ring ring —
The doorbell rang again. She frowned as she got out of bed and put on her shoes to open the door.
Loredana opened the door, and at the doorstep, was a deliveryman in helmet. He was carrying a box, “May I know whether you are Ms. Flores?” She nodded her head, “I am.”
The deliveryman passed the box over to her, “This is your parcel, please sign your receipt here.”
Loredana stood rooted to the spot, she hadn’t bought anything. The parcel last time were photos, what would it be this time?
And it was such a big box?
“Can you put it down, and open it up to see whether the items inside are damaged.” Loredana didn’t sign immediately. She was afraid that what was inside was something ‘scary’ or dangerous.
The deliveryman was very easy-going, there were indeed many customers who would want to check whether the items had been damaged. He put down the box, and slit open the tape in a familiar manner. Opening the box, in it was another polystyrene box. The deliveryman opened up the polystyrene box, and on the topmost layer was a cling wrapper, and underneath it was a layer of fresh green carrots.
Loredana was stunned for a moment, surprised that she had received these green carrots.
