Chapter 304 So It Was Actually Xavier Behind All This?
“Perhaps so.” “Okay, I’ll trust you just this once.”
Veronica was aware that she had no other way to resolve this situation. Besides, even if she left with
Randall, there was no other location that she could take him to. She might as well interrogate Randall
here and leave after that. That would work out much better. Subsequently, she joined Troy in
interrogating Randall.
Meanwhile, at the Crawford Residence, Xavier was wide awake as he waited to hear back from the
hitman.
However, he waited for quite a while but received no news at all.
Just as Xavier was about to grab his phone to call the other party, he received a phone call at the same
time. “Young Master Xavier, I’ve failed. Randall was hijacked by someone. I’m still investigating the
matter, and I’m not sure of the identity of the other party just yet.”
“What?!”
Xavier’s eyes widened in shock. “You’re a bunch of imbeciles! I don’t care what you do, but I want
Randall dead by tonight!”
If Randall remained alive and this incident became known, there would be severe consequences. As
soon as Xavier thought of this, he was very uneasy.
“Yes. I’m doing all I can to investigate this,” replied the other party.
As soon as Xavier hung up the phone, he was quite restless, and he quickly left the mansion.
He figured that it would be much better for him to deal with certain things personally.
Inside the workshop, Veronica held the electric baton in her hand. She used it on Randall and punished
him badly. Finally, he broke down and told the truth, “Oh… Sobs… Stop hitting me. It hurts. I’ll tell you
the truth. I’ll tell you everything…”
“You should have done that earlier to avoid this punishment.” Veronica’s expression was somber as
she placed one hand in her pocket while holding on to the baton with the other hand. She took out a
recording device and switched it on to record the ensuing conversation.
“Boohoo… I don’t know the person either… Sobs… A mysterious person called me and sent me to a
specified location to get five hundred thousand in cash, and then in return, I was told to frame Veronica.
The person gave me the contact details of the press and instructed me to frame a woman named
Veronica. Boohoo… They said that no lives would be harmed, so… so I did everything according to
their instructions.”
Randall, who had never experienced torture before, quickly revealed everything that he knew.
“How did the other party contact you?”
“The person called me.”
“What’s their phone number?”
“I have no idea. Sobs… The other party called me every time they needed to give me instructions, and
then the number… The number they used would always appear as an unknown number that was
uncontactable. Boohoo…”
Randall sobbed hard, and he felt as if his body was shattered from the beating he had gone through.
He couldn’t stop shivering from the pain as he asked, “Who are you? H-How are you related to
Veronica?”
Veronica was significantly angered, and she instantly swung the electric baton in her hand at him. As
soon as Randall saw the incoming baton, he yelled in surprise, but before the pain hit him, he
swooned, and then he fainted in a heap on the ground.
Veronica was not going to let him off lightly, though. She found a bottle of water by the side and
splashed it on Randall’s face. Instantly, he was hit by a wave of coldness, and he regained
consciousness right there and then.
She continued to persist in her interrogation, and it was then that she found out the location where
Randall went to collect the cash. It was also at this point that she realized the cash of five hundred
thousand was stored at his house.
After the interrogation ended, she turned around to glance at Matthew. “I’m done with interrogating him.
Could you hand this man over to me?”
After all, Randall was Monica’s husband. Although he was a money-minded man and deserved to lose
his life over this, she was mindful that he was Monica’s husband.
Monica had just given birth, so she needed her husband, and their baby needed him, the father, too.
Matthew lifted his brows and replied, “Why do you want him? Don’t you want to get rid of him?”
He purposely behaved as if he didn’t recognize her, and he mentioned it coldly.
“Although he’s money-minded, ultimately, he didn’t harm any lives, so he doesn’t deserve to die for his
crimes.”
“Okay. You’re quite right.”
Matthew nodded his head slightly, “Since that’s the case, just take him with you.”
“Thanks.”
Veronica clearly didn’t expect that Matthew would give in so easily, but she didn’t comment too much
about that. She carted Randall, who was injured, off with her and dragged him out of the workshop with
much difficulty.
Finally, she succeeded in stuffing him into the trunk, and subsequently, she started her car and drove
off in haste. By then, Troy had come forward and stood in front of Matthew. “President Kings, do you
know him?”
He stood straight, and his deep eyes were focused on the car that had gradually driven off in the
distance. He kept his eyes on the car until it finally disappeared into the dark horizon, before he curled
his lips into a smile. “Of course not.”
Undeniably, her disguise was perfect. Even Troy was fooled by her, so she was definitely skillful.
…
Veronica left with Randall, and she dumped him at a secluded warehouse before leaving.
This location was definitely the safest spot for Randall because… Since they had found Randall, the
mastermind behind this incident would definitely want to get rid of Randall too.
Randall was not the only one with his life in danger; Monica and their newborn baby in the hospital
were in the same predicament too.
Just then, Veronica was quite frustrated. She contacted the private investigator to get the surveillance
camera footage around the location where the five hundred thousand was placed so that she could find
out the actual identity of the mastermind.
After Veronica had given her instructions, she headed directly to the Women’s and Children’s Hospital.
She was slightly worried about Monica, so she wanted to pop over for a visit.
However, as soon as Veronica parked her car and got out of it, she bumped straight into Xavier.
From the moment Veronica got out of her car, she focused her eyes on Xavier from under her cap.
Xavier shot a look at her too.
Perhaps it was because she had intentionally changed her posture and appearance, so Xavier didn’t
manage to identify her at first glance.
He headed out of the hospital as she walked into the place, and they both shot a look at each other, but
neither slowed down. They continued on their ways and brushed past each other.
Bam—
Shortly after that, there was the sound of a car door slamming shut from behind her. Subsequently,
there was a noise of a car’s ignition being started, and then the car gradually disappeared into the
horizon.
At that point, Veronica paused in her tracks. She had both hands tucked in her pocket as she turned
around to look at the car’s lit-up tail lights as they gradually disappeared from her sight. Her heart sank
subsequently. She narrowed her eyes and clenched her fist tightly as she kept her eyes on the
direction the car drove off in. Suddenly, she felt a chill run down her spine.
It was late at night, so was it a coincidence that Xavier suddenly appeared at the hospital, or could it be
because he was here to investigate her matter? As soon as Veronica thought of this, she ran into the
hospital and entered Monica’s room immediately. Her anxiety was instantly alleviated upon seeing
Monica and Mrs. Watson deep in slumber while the baby in the cot licked his lips as he slept soundly.
However, the next moment after that, she recalled something, so she turned around and rushed out of
the room to leave the hospital. She started her car and drove directly in the direction of Monica’s
house.
She had visited Monica at her house before, so she knew the exact location. Coincidentally or not, as
Veronica drove along the road toward Monica’s house, she encountered the black car once again. It
was the car that Xavier had entered when she bumped into him at the hospital entrance.
After quite some time, she finally arrived at an old township on the outskirts of the city, and she found
Monica’s house at a glance amongst the row of old houses. The reason for that was that Monica’s
house was on fire.
Veronica had gotten out of the car at that point, and she was standing by the sidewalk when she saw
the scene in front of her. She stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.
It was then that she realized she had actually uncovered the truth. She had seen the truth with her own
eyes. The truth was covered by lies, and it pained her to realize that.
If she had been blissfully ignorant previously and thought that Xavier was at the hospital late at night to
help her uncover the truth, then at the moment, with Monica’s house ablaze and Xavier’s abrupt
departure, everything was quite obvious and it went without saying.
The truth was… He was not there to seek evidence; he had come to destroy it.
The fire at Monica’s house burned intensely, and every resident in the old township was alerted to the
fire. Some men grabbed megaphones and hollered as they quickly evacuated the crowd. Some of them
dialed the number for the local fire station.
Veronica stood by the sidewalk and watched the unfolding scene for a few minutes before turning
around to enter her car. Subsequently, she left the place.
