Uncovering My Wife's Secrets (Annalise and Julian)

Chapter 429 Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

A few basins of water splashed down. In one of the rooms in James' suite, the six "waiters" were woken up by splashes of water. As soon as they woke up, they sat up abruptly and looked at the man sitting opposite them. James was wearing glasses and looked like a refined scholar, but the coldness exuding from his body made people shudder. It was as if he had walked out of a pool of blood, exuding a murderous aura. "Awake?" James's voice was calm and cold. "You, who are you?" The leader asked. "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this question?" James sneered. His voice suddenly turned cold. "Who are you people?" The six men did not know if it was because they had been splashed with cold water or because the man in front of them was so domineering, but they shivered in unison. James looked at them coldly, waiting for them to speak. "We... We're just ordinary waiters." The leader's eyes flickered slightly. "Waiters who go about killing people and setting things up on fire?" James's voice was cold. "No, no. We rushed over when we heard the sounds of fighting. When we rushed into the changing room, we saw that someone was injured. We didn't kill him," The leader argued.

A few underlings in waiter clothes immediately echoed, "We really didn't kill him." "Yes. It was already like this when we went in." "We didn't set anything on fire. We went in because we smelled blood and burning." James was silent for a moment. "So, you guys are holding daggers and lighters in your hands? Pretending to be murderers?" James sneered. "No, no, the dagger and lighter... We found them on the ground. They're murder weapons. We're going to take these things to the person in charge of the cruise ship..." "That's right, that's right. We have to report such a huge incident on the cruise ship..." "Not going to protect the crime scene, but picking up the murder weapons immediately?" James said mockingly. "We... We were too anxious back then. We don't understand these things..." "Who gave you the orders?" James asked coldly. "Wh-What?" The leader was a little confused.

"Who gave you orders?" James asked again. "No... No one gave us orders. Please, we're really innocent. We just happened to hear the commotion and entered that changing room..." "Jared Blake?" James asked. "Wh-What?" Panic flashed across the leader's eyes. No one knew about this after all. Jared was also using a backup phone to contact them. The reward for this job was 4.5 million dollars. Jared did not deduct their remaining payment, but each of them had closed ones in Jared's hands. Their original plan was to do this and give a portion of the money to their families before leaving the country, or they could directly bring their families out of the country. "Apart from Jared, who else could it be?" James asked coldly. "What? I don't know what you're talking about. Who's Jared?" The leader played dumb. His underlings also cooperated with him.

"Sir, we're really just waiters. We don't even know who you're talking about." "That's right!" "Heh..." James snorted coldly. He took the computer from the side and placed it on his knee. His well-defined fingers quickly tapped a few keys and turned the computer around. The computer screen was aimed in the direction of the few scumbags. The surveillance footage was playing on the computer. They sneaked around the wedding venue, and when the elevator malfunctioned, they sprayed roofie through the elevator door's crack. After that, the elevator moved and they helped Preston and his bodyguard out. Coincidentally, they were seen by Mina. They were anxious and left Preston behind. They carried the bodyguard and left. James was so certain that it was Jared because he had already interrogated Preston's assistant and Mr. Johada. The reason why Preston left the scene was that his assistant called Preston and said that Mr. Johada was looking for him to discuss a project. Preston brought his bodyguard back to his room and encountered an elevator malfunction.

Preston's assistant was shocked and angry when he learned that Preston had been drugged and almost died. Mr. Johada denied out of the bat that he had an appointment with Preston. A man sent by James pointed the gun directly at Mr. Johada's head. He was so scared that he almost peed his pants. He immediately told him everything without holding anything back. He said that he and Jared were old friends. Today, Jared asked him to call Preston to discuss the project. After it was done, Blake Corporation would establish a permanent partnership with Johada Corp. As for what Jared wanted to do to Preston, he really had no idea. "Did you see it clearly?" James's sharp gaze shot toward the six "waiters". The six of them looked at each other. They gritted their teeth and lowered their heads, unable to speak. They were furious. They were told that the surveillance cameras had been taken out and that nothing would go wrong. That was why they were acting so brazenly. In the end, the surveillance footage was so complete. It was really infuriating. "Confess and we'll go easy on you. Resist and you suffer the consequences!" James said coldly. "Sir, you are?" The leader suddenly looked up at James.

Even if he wanted to explain, he had to know who this person was! James took his identification from the pocket of his suit jacket and showed it to them. When they saw the words "National Security", they grumbled and immediately defended themselves. "Sir, we didn't violate national security, we..." It was just killing someone, and they had killed before. "Whether you want to confess or not, you have to think about it carefully. If you don't confess, you'll die. Accomplices are always given a lighter sentence than the main culprit." James coldly analyzed the relationship between the other party. They exchanged glances again. The leader gritted his teeth and said, "There's no mastermind. We just wanted to rob someone. We were a little heavy-handed and accidentally killed someone." They had killed countless before Even if they gave up Jared this time, they would not survive. They figured that they might as well take it upon themselves to protect their families. "Oh? You went to the changing room to rob someone?" James asked coldly. "Someone saw us at that time, so we had no choice but to do it somewhere else," The leader said.

"So, you've decided not to tell me anything?" James asked again, his sharp gaze sweeping across everyone. The few of them quickly avoided James's gaze and looked away. "Their cell phones!" James ordered. The person beside him immediately handed the six phones that he had just confiscated to James. James logged their recent calls into the computer one by one. Soon, he found Jared's backup phone number. He tapped a few more keys, and the deleted chat history was restored. Jared asked them to bring the guy to another changing room, kill the guy, and frame Julian. Angered, James looked up the six of them and asked coldly, "Is there a recording of your calls?" The leader's eyes flickered, and he was very frustrated. He had indeed turned on the recording function on his phone the whole time. He was afraid that some employers would not give him the rest of the money after the job was done, so he would use the recording to threaten the employer to pay. Unexpectedly, the recording was about to fall into the hands of these people.
