Chapter 1788 Lucas, in the driver’s seat, furrowed his brows and said, “Sir, it truly is heartwarming. If only…
Lucas sighed and continued, “If only the person by Ma’am’s side is you. That’d be better.”
Joshua closed his eyes and leaned back. He gracefully leaned back on the leather seat.
“How are you getting on with the matter you were asked to investigate?”
Lucas paused for a while before collecting his emotions. He reported seriously, “We found out something.
“Although the person called Todd who crashed into Heather is now based in Merchant City, twenty years ago, he was living in Banyan City, like the Landrys and the Quinns. Initially, he was just an ordinary truck driver.”
Lucas paused for a while before he added, “One of the drivers who used to be close to Todd said that one night, Todd knocked on his door and said that he murdered someone, saying that he needed to be on the run.
“Because Todd borrowed quite a lot of money from him before Todd left, he remembered the date Todd ran away clearly. It was…the day of Colin Landry’s accident.”
Joshua squinted a little.
Todd was just an ordinary truck driver before killing Colin in Banyan City. That meant that after escaping to Merchant City, he got into a gang and even became the leader of one of the largest gangs in Merchant City.
He was only a truck driver. How did he manage to climb up the ranks in the gang?
Someone must have protected and assisted him.
Before Joshua interfered, Merchant City had always been under the rule of the Quinns and the Landrys. If that was the case, the family that had been protecting Todd must either be the Landrys or the Quinns.
However, the victims that Todd killed with his truck were from the Landry family. That meant that it could only be the Quinns.
Coincidentally, Heather had something to do with the Quinns, too.
Could…the conflict between the Landrys and the Lynchs back then have something to do with the Quinns as well?
At that thought, Joshua shut his eyes and rubbed the middle of his brows.
“Has Luke caught Todd yet?”
“No.”
joshua sneered. “It looks ilke as long as we find Todd, we’ll know who it was that killed Colin Landry back then.”
Colin and Heather’s accidents were similar. Even the truck used was of the same model, thus that meant the perpetrator should be the same person.
If Heather was murdered, that meant that Colin was murdered too. If that was the case, perhaps Colin’s death had little to do with Joshua’s grandmother tampering with Colin’s car.
At that thought, Joshua sighed. Granny Lynch has passed away for more than a year. If she was still alive and knew about this news, she would have been happy, right?
Although Granny Lynch had been domineering and decisive, that she had done many vicious things in the business world, but when it came to accidental manslaughter, it was only Colin.
It turned out that she had been framed, too.
“Let’s head back,” Joshua instructed calmly, taking another deep look at Bonnie’s mansion.
Lucas nodded and started the engine.
However, just when the car started moving, Joshua’s phone rang. It was a message from Luna.
(Won’t you come in and join us for a meal?]
Looking at the message on his phone, Joshua hesitated a little. He subconsciously looked in the direction of the mansion once again. At that moment, Luna stood by the balcony on the upper floor, silently watching him.
