Chapter 221
He looked at Howard and said, “Howard, promptly investigate the matter. If Thea was behind this all along, she won’t be let off the hook that easily.”
“Yes.”
Howard nodded.
Meanwhile, Tommy wore a scheming look on his face. He flashed Wendy a victorious smile.
Lex stood up and headed upstairs to rest. In the hallway on the first floor, Howard looked at Tommy. “Did you have anything to do with this?”
Discomposed, he hurriedly explained, “What are you talking about, father? How’s that possible?”
Howard said coldly, “This is no small matter. If anything happens, it’ll bring about the destruction of the Callahans. Thea is no fool. She couldn’t have done such a thing.” Tommy indeed panicked when he saw the deceased’s family making a commotion. That was because his plan should have been flawless. He only wanted to create trouble for Thea. Although something was wrong with the medicine, it was not supposed to be fatal. “Father, Thea’s bossing us around. If this continues, she’ll be the master of the family.” Tommy let the cat out of the bag.
“That’s right. It was me. I bribed Yosef Zaborowski, who was in charge of handling the medicine, and ordered him to substitute them for substandard ones. I only wanted to show Thea who’s boss. I didn’t expect things to almost go out of hand.”
Smash!
Howard slammed the table. Tommy hurriedly explained, “Father, I did this for your sake. Although we now have twenty percent of the shares, Thea had used all the profits to expand the business. Since we didn’t get anything out of it, what use is there for the twenty percent shares? Only by getting rid of her can we get more money and ensure the power of the family will be in our hands.”
