Chapter 435: He's Helped Me Enough
Chapter 435: He's Helped Me Enough
The police report stated that Floren had died the night before.
His body had been tossed into the river, and if it weren't for the rain last night, he wouldn't have been found until many days later.
He had been hit heavily on the head, and on his body, they found stab wounds of varying depths.
It seemed to be an act of revenge.
But the mortal wound was not yet confirmed.
Tiffany exclaimed, "Well, you reap what you sow, indeed! It'll always get back at you.But scary to think that this guy was just talking to me on the phone, and now he's a corpse.”
Sharon put down the phone and didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
After a while, she said, "And Rita Roose?"
"No idea,’ Tiffany thought for a second and then asked, "You don't think Rita killed him, do you? It's impossible.Rita would've had no chance against someone as big as Floren, not to mention that he was thrown into the river.It required a lot of strength, and only a man could've done that.’
Sharon agreed with her.If she hadn't met Bridger and learned that he hadn't seen Rita recently, she would be thinking that Rita Roose was the biggest suspect.
Without the help of Bridger, Rita couldn't have done all that.
Tiffany asked again, "Now Floren is dead, why hasn't there any progress with the bribery case? Those two judges can really hold their breath.If it were me, I would've strangled Sofia Berry to death long ago!"
Sharon answered, "Let's just wait."
The two judges were so involved with the Berry Group, that even if they wanted revenge, they would not be so impulsive as to sacrifice their own interests.
And Sofia Berry was not having a good time anyway.
Her father had accepted her biological mother into their house, and it even looked like he was going to marry her, despite the fact she was crying and begging him not to.
Now that the whole South City knew about it, she felt ashamed to even go out.
All she was doing were screaming at the woman and smashing things as a way of protest.
The Berry's was like a war zone thanks to her.
Daniel came unhurriedly after noon, holding a red rose.
The girls were used to it.
Tiffany was a little embarrassed, though.
She dragged him to Sharon's office.
"She's waiting for you."
Daniel handed her the flower and raised his brows, "I'll be back soon and tonight....."
"Oh, shut up and go in!"
Sharon was searching for Floren's news when she heard the loud noise and saw Daniel being pushed in.
She mocked, "Nice entrance."
Daniel coughed, "Tiffany says you're looking for me.What's up?" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Do you see that car outside?"
"Yeah, it's been following me.But I didn't see it this morning.I thought it was gone.But I guess it just came here and waited today.’
That was also why he had had the chance to take care of some business.
Sharon said, "I think they are here for me today.’
Daniel's smile faded, "Why is that?"
"I told Talon Beale that I was moving."
"And what did he say?"
"He said no.He asked me to wait until the anniversary celebrations over.’ Daniel frowned, "He's definitely planning something.Don't listen to him.You should leave right now.’
Sharon nodded, "That was my plan as well, but....."
She paused for a few seconds and then continued, "I met Bridger Fowler earlier.He told me that they had kept Josh somewhere not far from the Beale's."
Daniel knew what she wanted to do.
"You want to stay and find out where?"
Sharon pursed her lips lightly, "Josh has been in his hand for a long time.They have met more than once.I don't know what Josh has told him or what he wants to do with Josh, but I am certain that he has some big plans during the celebration.And Josh is the key."
"But you should also know that whatever he's going to do will be aimed at you."
"That's why I'm staying.Maybe I can find more useful information.’
"Has Mr.Proctor agreed?"
Sharon opened her mouth but couldn't answer.
Jameson Proctor would be here tonight.
She hadn't come up with what to tell him.
Daniel added, "You know it's dangerous, and he will not let you do it.Just drop it.We will find Josh now that we know he's there.’
"What do you mean by 'we’?" Sharon asked.
"I mean.....Mr.Proctor and me! I believe he also has been tracking Josh."
Sharon slowly replied, "Jameson is doing this for me, but why are you?"
Sharon didn't give him a chance to explain.
She immediately added, "It's a bit too much even for friends, don't you think so?"
Daniel thought for some time and sighed, "Actually, it's Trey Coe.He was afraid that you would reject and worried that Mr.Proctor wouldn't be happy about it.So he asked me to take care of you."
Sharon laughed, "If it's Trey Coe, then it will be even less necessary.He's helped me enough.And it's more than I can repay.’
"But..."
"Thanks anyway! I'll be fine."
Daniel couldn't say more.He nodded and decided to leave.He turned at the door, "You should discuss it with Mr.Proctor.I don't think he's willing to risk you."
Sharon sighed after Daniel had left.She looked out through the window.
No, he would definitely not agree.
Sharon checked the time and quickly finished some work.She decided on a trip to the Proctor Group.Her car had only moved for a short distance before she saw the black car follow up.
‘‘Of course” She thought to herself.
