While Wayne was out cold in the hospital, Rosalynn had already sent people to dig up every bit of info they could find on Jesse.
Even though Ollie was meticulous in covering his tracks, so much so that the cops hadn't found anything unusual, everyone believed that Jesse was swindled out of all his compensation money by some con artists pretending to be his relatives.
In reality, that compensation money merely passed through Jesse's hands before Ollie shuffled it off to some offshore accounts.
Natalie was a businesswoman, and even though she could be quite ruthless in her pursuits, she was more than generous when it came to the compensation for her hometown's chemical plant.
Especially for someone like Jesse, whose family was wiped out. Rosalynn calculated that Natalie had provided over 70 million in compensation after various family members passed away, plus an additional 10 million for housing arrangements.
She also personally covered the medical costs for Jesse's daughter. After the child passed away, Natalie gave another 20 million for grief compensation and funeral expenses.
That's a total of over 100 million,
but Jesse didn't see a single cent of it.
For a moment, Ollie's face froze, then he swallowed hard, "Mrs. Silverman, where my money comes from is my personal business, I don't owe you any explanations! If you think there's something wrong with my money, go ahead and call the cops on me!"
After finishing, he turned to Drew, "Drew, let's turn ourselves in. All you did was switch out Jesse's medicine and bitch about Wayne a little, we didn't kill anyone! Worst case scenario, we're charged with incitement, no one died, we do a little time and then we start over!"
At this point, Ollie knew that Rosalynn would never let Drew off the hook, so he figured he might as well throw in the towel,
they could do time, but they couldn't afford to end up in the clutches of Wayne's wife!
"Drew, weren't you curious why after your parents were brutally murdered, you weren't adopted by relatives following the standard procedure? Even if there were no relatives, you should've been sent to an orphanage, right? So how is it that Ollie ended up raising you?"
