Chapter 699
Kevan went out to pass a USB drive to Dashiell
Ronan tumed off the surveillance cameras in the underground parking lot of Winston Hotel.
The black boxes, which were installed in some of the cars, caught his actions.
Kevan asked someone to compile the footage into that USB drive.
âAfter I watched the footage, I found out that it isnât as simple as auto burglary,â he told Dashiell.
Dashiell took the USB drive with solemnity.
âI will get to the bottom of it.â
âThank you, Mr. Montgomery.â
Kevan gave him a smile.
When Kevan got back into the car, Dylan asked, âArenât you afraid of alerting the other party?â
The last thing Kevan wished for was to alert the mastermind behind Ronan. Otherwise, he wouldnât have put Ronan on a light charge.
Once Kevan gave the game away, the other party would put on their guards. When that happened, it would be difficult to find out who the mastermind was.
âEven if that happens, I wonât let him get away that easily.â
An ominous gint flashed across Kevanâs eyes.
Dylan could guess the reason for Kevanâs decision. He had watched the footage that was handed to Dashiell after all
a
According to the footage. Ronan smashed the car window with a bat like a madmar.
He even thrust a small knife into the window!
Even though Larissa was safe and sound. Dylanâs heart was literally in his throat while watching it.
âOkay.â
Dylan was at a loss for words to calm Kevan down.
âBy the way, did something unpleasant happen between you and Bryan? Why is he setting you up?â
âI havenât met him before.â
Kevan had been recalling if he had offended Bryan upon learning of the deal between Ronan and Bryan. He was certain that he hadnât met
Bryan before today.
Dylanâs brows furrowed deeper.
âThat doesnât make sense. Did you set someone up and forget about it?â
He grumbled. âI told you to be kinder, didnâ11? Donât act like a Grim Reaper all the time. You might not remember what kind of awlul things you tell others, but they might resent you forever.â
âIâm positive that I havenât seen him before.â
Kevan firmly denied Dylanâs groundless assumption.
Considering his exceptional memory, he could remember the faces of passersby on the streets.
Bryan was once Larissaâs second-in-command. If both the men had confronted each other before, Kevan wouldâve remembered.
âIf thatâs the case, why would he set you up?â
Dylan doubled Kevanâs certainty.
âWe should investigate his family.â Kevan suggested.
As Dylan had mentioned. Kevan never held himsell back whenever he scolded or punished his subordinates, hence the huge number of enemies.
If one of his subordinates was Bryanâs familyâ
That assumption was later proved wrong.
Documents related to Bryanâs family were piled on Kevanâs table. He spent the whole day reading them all Bryanâs relatives had nothing to do with Microworks Corporation.
However, Bryanâs wife had worked for Soaring Corporation before. The corporation announced bankruptcy recently, so she lost her job.
Their son, who was in college, received a scholarship from that corporation annually.
Back then, Bryan jumped ship from the Regal Dynasty Hotel which was under Soaring Corporation, to Winston Hotel.
Bryan and his family had nothing to do with Kevan, but yesterday, it seemed like someone had wanted to settle a score with Kevan,
Kevan dialed a number.
