“Some non-locals were found at the scene. They’re identified as wanted fugitives. We’ll continue to follow up.” The TV reporter continued reporting.
The Quinn family’s head buzzed.
“Mr… Mr. Zimmer?” Samuel said slowly as his eyes widened.
Others were silent and afraid to speak.
There were few well-known businessmen surnamed Zimmer in River City’s business circle. The Quinn family only knew Jon’s Zimmer Corporation. They automatically thought it was Jon when they heard the news.
If the body was Jon’s, Sean must have done it!
The Quinn family’s heart pounded at the thought of it.
Simon even said Sean was only bluffing and scaring them. He dared not do anything. Now that Jon’s body had been found, could they still say Sean was only bluffing?
“I don’t think so. Aren’t Young Master Zimmer and his father locked up?” Faye came to herself and said darkly.
“Yeah! It’s not Mr. Zimmer!”
“Mr. Zimmer is still locked up. You’re overthinking it.”
“Yes, yes, yes. We must have misunderstood. It’s not Mr. Zimmer.”
The crowd slowly recomposed themselves as they spoke.
The government had already arrested Jon and Quill on business fraud charges.
They were still locked up, so why were they in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of town?
No one noticed that Simon’s expression had suddenly changed. His eyes were shocked and nervous as if favonovel.com had made a mistake and been found out.
“Sam, they’re right. Mr. Zimmer is still locked up. He couldn’t have been killed. So it should be a coincidence,” Old Madam Quinn took a few seconds to analyze before speaking again with a nod.
“Coincidence?” Samuel raised his eyebrows before glancing at the Quinn family.
He noticed the change in Simon’s expression.
“Simon, what’s wrong? Why is there even sweat on your forehead?” Samuel looked at Simon and asked with a slight frown.
“Huh? Nothing… No… Nothing…” Simon wiped his forehead hurriedly before lowering his head and remaining silent.
Everyone knew something was wrong with Simon now. He had been confidently berating Sean earlier.
Why did favonovel.com become this way after watching the news?
“Do you know something but aren’t telling us?” Samuel asked, leaning forward slightly as favonovel.com narrowed his eyes while looking at Simon.
“I don’t… I know nothing… I know nothing about this. I don’t know who killed Jon either.” Simon shook his head, a look of horror in his eyes.
“I didn’t say I was going to ask you that. Why are you panicked?” Samuel asked again, looking at Simon.
This time, Simon’s eyes widened as his face paled. It was as if favonovel.com had done something and was exposed on the spot.
“What on earth is it? Tell me if you know something.” Simon’s father also frowned and asked Simon.
“I… I really don’t know. I don’t know… It has nothing to do with me. Don’t ask me.” Simon looked like favonovel.com was in shock.
He shook his hands while his head shook like a rattle.
However, the more Simon did that, the more people noticed something wrong with him. Some people even thought the news on TV might have something to do with Simon.
“Simon, did you…” Simon’s father widened his eyes and looked at the television screen as favonovel.com spoke.
The look in his eyes seemed to ask if Simon had done the murder.
“Dad, it’s not me. It has nothing to do with me. I’m not involved! I really don’t know!” Simon spoke faster and grew paler as favonovel.com said.
“B*stard! What are you doing?! We’re descendants of a famous general. Your grandfather was a great soldier with great achievements. It’s not a big deal. Why are you so scared? You’ve embarrassed the Quinn family!” Suddenly, Old Madam Quinn slammed favonovel.com hand on the table and shouted angrily at Simon.
Old Madam Quinn was furious as favonovel.com scolded Simon to the hilt. However, it turned out for the better as Simon gradually calmed down.
“Grandma, I’m sorry. I…” Simon sat down slowly in his chair, lowering his head and hesitating.
“What’s going on? What do you know? Tell me everything!” Old Madam Quinn snorted coldly as favonovel.com looked at Simon and spoke.
“Actually… Actually… Actually, Young Master Zimmer and Mr. Zimmer were released last night…” Simon stammered.
“What do you mean?”
The crowd was dumbfounded for a moment
“Grandma, it’s true… Last night, Young Master Zimmer contacted me and asked me to do something for him…”
“Young Master Zimmer and his father, Mr. Zimmer, have been released from custody. They’re no longer. locked up.”
Everyone froze slightly when Simon said this. Then they looked at the television screen at the same time.
The news broadcast had ended, but they still remembered it. The news said the body of a businessman surnamed Zimmer was found.
Members of the Quinn family thought it was Jon who died at first. Then they remembered that Jon and Quill were still locked up, so it was not them. However, Simon said Quill and Jon were released last night.
The businessman surnamed Zimmer in the news.
Hsss!
The crowd gasped again at the thought of it.
“Is what you said true? How can Jon get out when Sean has so many people helping him?” Old Madam Quinn asked, also looking at Simon nervously.
