"I know what I did was wrong, Mr.
Zimmerson. I was forced into it. If I didn’t listen to him, he would’ve killed me. I had no choice."
Tory narrowed his eyes. "So Jordan was the one who helped you pay back the hundreds and thousands of dollars that you stole."
"Yes.”
I pursed my lips and asked Anthony, "That corpse at the crime scene... Who was it?"
Tory frowned. Perhaps he felt that my question was unimportant.
Anthony was taken aback. He looked over me and said somewhat uncertainly, "It’s probably Milan."
I looked at Theo, unsure if I could believe his words.
Theo held my hand and lowered his head as if he were thinking about something.
After a few minutes, he asked Tory, "Did you find Milan's whereabouts?”
"He disappeared ever since your accident. I've sent people to search for him, but it's been such a long time. We still haven't found him. He might be dead.”
As soon as he said that, a troubled expression crossed Tory's face as he pondered that possibility.
It was a baffling matter. Why did Jordan want to kill Milan? When Milan first arrived in Limbia, he was in desperate need of assistance, so he and Jordan decided to work together. Not only did Jordan's interests remain untouched, but Milan would also help him however he could too. Similarly, Jordan would provide help whenever needed.
Why would Jordan kill him?
