Captivation: Want Nothing But You -
Chapter 1330
“They aren’t the police.
The best they can hold against me is an investigation order.
They can’t arrest me for no reason, can they?”
Rachel smirked.
“They’re here to investigate why Victor purchased shares of the Bennet Group.”
“No wonder,” Roger said after thinking for a while.
“Huh?” Rachel was confused.
“What do you mean?”
Roger looked into her eyes, seemingly in thought.
After a moment of silence, he said, “Rachel, my father’s friend happens to be one of the members of the investigation team.
He said that there’s a chance that Victor will go to jail.”
Rachel looked at him indifferently and remained silent as she waited for what he had to say.
Roger’s eyes were trained on her face, fearing that he would miss the change in her expression.
“The investigation team received an anonymous tip-off.
They suspect that Victor embezzled Sullivan
Group’s capital six years ago, and some of that money was used to purchase Bennet Group’s shares.
The reason I was so anxious just now is that I was worried that the investigation team would get you involved with the source of the money.” He the lowered his voice to a whisper that only Rachel could hear.
“Even though they didn’t mention it, they must have obtained some key evidence.
That explains why they suddenly came to the Bennet Group.
They must be looking for further proof to the evidence they already have.
If Victor can’t come up with a reasonable explanation to counter it, the possibility of him being accused of abuse of power will be very high.”
Rachel narrowed her eyes and listened quietly.
“Once he is convicted, not only will all his property and assets be confiscated, but he will also be sentenced to more than five years in prison.”
Rachel was no stranger to that.
She knew the weight that came with it better than anyone else.
Although four years had passed so quickly in this new life she had, the memory of the two years she had spent in the international prison before her rebirth was still fresh and unforgettable.
Even though her face didn’t show it, she was stunned for a moment when she heard that Victor might be put in prison, thinking that maybe she had heard it wrong.
But soon, she smiled.
It was a faint smile that was hard to catch.
Rachel felt it though and was confused by her emotions.
She seemed to be happy when she heard the news, or else she wouldn’t have smiled.
Then, she suddenly felt suffocated as if she was strapped to an emotional roller coaster.
“Rachel…” Seeing her smile in a daze, Roger called out her name worriedly.
“More than five years in prison.” Rachel stopped smiling and looked up at him.
“Do you know exactly how many years it will be?”
Roger was surprised by her sudden shift.
“It’s too early in the case to determine that yet.”
“Oh, okay then.” Rachel nodded nonchalantly.
