Chapter 296
When Herman saw Keeley lying at the door, he already felt a sense of despair.
For so long, they hadn’t found any solid evidence pointing to Naylor, and if Keeley was also dead,everything would be out of proof.
It meant that if Naylor could give a reasonable explanation for Keeley’s death, the actions of thiscriminal gang would be completely traceless because of Keeley’s death.
Obviously, this was not the outcome Herman wanted to see.
However, when he stepped forward to check Keeley’s body, Keeley moved slightly.
Herman clearly sensed Keeley’s pulse, and Keeley slowly opened his eyes and glanced at him.
Before he could react, Keeley quietly slipped him something.
At that moment, Herman wasn’t sure whether Keeley was injured or completely okay, but he knew hecould use this opportunity to expose Naylor’s true colors.
And indeed, it turned out to be the case.
After hearing this, Seraphina couldn’t help but pause.
To be honest, she chose to start with Keeley because there was no other choice.
She had thought that Keeley might fall out with Naylor or even attack Naylor because of this, but shedidn’t expect that Keeley would cooperate with Herman and expose Naylor’s true face in front of thepolice.
After all, Keeley once said that he would rather die than betray Naylor.
For a man like Keeley, who always acted outside the rules of society and ignored the law, Seraphinathought that the only way he would respond was to fight fire with fire. “Can I see Keeley?” Seraphinacouldn’t help but ask Herman.
Hearing this question, Herman couldn’t help but glance at Leandro.
Seraphina noticed his gaze, “I’m asking you, why do you look at his reaction? Why do you always haveto look at his facial expressions to make decisions?”
Leandro stood aside, glanced at Seraphina but remained silent.
-Herman sighed helplessly, “Your matters concern him the most, how can I not look at his face? If youdo something and he can’t bear to
punish you, he will vent his anger on me.”
Hearing this, Seraphina turned to look at Leandro, then said to Herman, “Then you do as I say, if youdon’t listen to me, I’ll let him give you trouble. In the end, you’ll suffer! If you can make me happy, I canplead for you at crucial moments. You think about it!”
Just at this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open, and John Garcia walked in and said assoon as he entered the door, “He’s already lying in bed, stop threatening him.”
John came over, greeted Leandro, then went to the bedside to check Herman’s condition, “How areyou? Are you seriously injured?”
“I won’t die.” Herman said, “I thought you went abroad?”
“I just landed and heard you had an accident, how could I not come back?” John replied impatiently.
Herman frowned, then said, “Our parents don’t know, right?”
“Do you think I’d dare to tell them?” John asked, “I’m not even sure about your condition yet, if theyhear about it and dad gets too excited, his heart disease may flare up again, and it would be you whopissed him off!”
Watching the two brothers quickly move on to family matters, Seraphina didn’t want to disturb themfurther, so she reached out and tugged at Herman, “Can you argue with your brother after we leave?”
Herman glared at her slightly, then looked at a colleague nearby to accompany Seraphina to the policestation.
Seraphina was eager and immediately followed the police officer out.
Leandro lagged behind a bit and said to Herman, “I’ll accompany her there, you take a good rest.”
Herman nodded, but John suddenly called out to him, “Leandro!”
Leandro stopped and turned to look at him.
“We have a project cooperation between our two companies in a while, I want to talk to you about it inadvance when I have time.”
Leandro listened then only replied, “We’ll talk then.”
He didn’t look back and walked out of the ward.
John was a bit stunned, “Why… is he getting colder and colder towards people?”
“Are you sure you want to collaborate with him?” Herman suddenly asked.
“What’s wrong?”
Herman looked at him, “You once dated his wife, what kind of happy expression do you think he willshow you?”
John was speechless.
Such a petty man!
Seraphina was completely focused on Keeley and Naylor. It wasn’t until she got to the police stationthat she remembered something and said to Leandro, “You left the company so early today, have youdealt with all the matters? If you’re still busy, you can go. You don’t have to accompany me.”

Leandro looked at her and slowly said, “I have no other matters, I’ll wait for you here.”
“Alright.” Seraphina didn’t say much and quickly got out of the car.
Watching her walk into the office building, Leandro rolled down the window, took a short breath, thentook out his phone and made a
call.
“What’s the situation with Bowen?” Leandro asked.
“Everything is normal.” Keen replied from the other end of the phone, “He’s at the company during theday, leaves at around four in the afternoon, goes to the Martin Group.”
“The Martin Group?”
“Yes.” Keen said, “Tania Martin recently started working at the Martin Group. Bowen probably went topick her up. They left the Martin Group together around five and went to eat at a restaurant.”novelbin
After hearing this, Leandro quickly hung up the phone, just staring at the distant sky with deep eyes,deep in thought.
After a few recent encounters, Seraphina and Herman’s folks had pretty much become familiar witheach other. The moment she saw them, she couldn’t help but ask about Naylor.
But she found out that there was still no news because Naylor hadn’t said a peep.
After hearing this, Seraphina just gave a small cold chuckle, “Let’s see how long he can keep his trapshut.”
“It’s not just him keeping mum.” One of them said to Seraphina, “The one inside hasn’t spoken either.”
At that moment, the inner door opened and an officer wheeled Keeley out. “He was going to thebathroom.” As soon as Keeley stepped out, he saw Seraphina standing in the middle of the office.
This woman, so stunningly beautiful, impossible to ignore.
But she was there when he was at his most humiliated…
With a hint of self-mocking smile, Keeley turned and sauntered towards the bathroom.
When he emerged from the bathroom, Seraphina was waiting by the door.
The cop who had accompanied him stepped away discretely, leaving him and Seraphina some privatespace.
As Seraphina silently observed him, Keeley abruptly raised his hand, showing her the handcuffs, “Isthis what you wanted to see?”
Seraphina’s gaze swept over the chain of the handcuffs. Instead of answering his question, she asked,“Why did you help Herman?”
“Why do you say that helped him?” Keeley said slowly, “Isn’t it more like I used him to help myself?”
