Chapter 260 The Truth Of The Case
The video of Laurel’s positive response to all the employees of the Lambert Group instantly became a
trending topic.
There were many comments.
Most of them were praises for Laurel.
The most popular comment was, “Laurel’s life has been so exciting after leaving Bruno!”
When Bruno looked at this comment, he was so angry that he almost smashed his phone.
There were countless replies in the comments.
Most of them said that he delayed Laurel and that he was not worthy of Laurel.
Once a woman who listened and obeyed, treating him like a god, suddenly transformed into a person
who attracted everyone’s attention.
He still doesn’t understand until now when Laurel started to
change.
When exactly did Laurel pull away from them, even growing further apart?
He slammed his fist hard on the desk.
At this moment, in the office of a city official,

Everyone turned to look at him because of his sudden noise.
Bruno felt the gaze, and then with a suppressed emotion, left the office.
He walked towards the outdoor balcony of the office building, holding his phone and dialing a number.
He asked directly, “What’s the situation with Irvin’s lawsuit now?”
“The court hearing is scheduled for the day after tomorrow. The current situation is still based on the
testimonies and
evidence we prepared earlier, with no updates from Irvin or Laurel.”
“Did Jerome succeed in bribing?”
“It has been successful,” the other person replied respectfully, “The answer I just gave you was
obtained from Jerome.”
“Tell Jerome not to take it too seriously when he goes to court, I want to make sure Irvin spends his
whole life in prison!”
“Received.”
Bruno hung up the phone, his face looked very bad.
Laurel thought it was a wild idea to challenge him.
He wanted to make Laurel lose face and be in a sorry state!
Bruno adjusted his emotions and left the balcony.
After he left,
Another man emerged from a hidden place.

Hayden extinguished the cigarette in his hand, confirming that it was indeed Bruno causing trouble.
However,
Bruno could never become a threat to him.
He just wanted to find the mastermind behind the scenes with the help of Bruno’s clues!
At 5:30 in the afternoon,
Laurel was getting ready to leave work.
Because Hayden said there had been significant progress in the case, she had to admit that she was
somewhat excited..
When Laurel got home, Hayden had just arrived as well.
Laurel asked directly, “Any progress in the case?”
“Can Ms. Lambert let me have a drink of water?” Hayden raised an eyebrow..
Laurel pursed her lips.
She turned around and went to the open kitchen to pour a glass of water and handed it to him.
Hayden took it and drank slowly.
Laurel suppressed her inner eagerness and made an effort to calm herself down before saying, “Can
we talk now?”
Hayden glanced at Laurel.

He put the water cup aside and said, “I knew why Robert and real estate developer Victor engaged in a
secret transaction worth 16 million dollars.”
“Why?”
“In order to reach the deal,” Hayden said earnestly, “the land value of Marigold Estates was initially
priced at 48 million dollars, but your father thought it was a bit high, so he disagreed with the
transaction. When Robert failed to reach an agreement, he told your father and the other party that
they had discussed 32 million. Your father thought this price. was reasonable, so he agreed to sign the
contract.”
“Why did Robert do this? I don’t think he was someone who would take risks for the sake of the
company’s interests, sacrificing himself for everyone’s benefit.”
Laurel certainly wouldn’t believe that Robert would resort to such extreme measures to achieve his
goal just because he believed that this piece of land was worth buying. Once such illegal activities are
discovered, one really has to go to jail.
“Of course not,” Hayden said, “Think about it, what was the final outcome of this project?”
Laurel was taken aback.
Then she immediately understood.
“Are you saying that the reason Robert resorted to such extreme measures to secure the cooperation
is because he wanted to facilitate the Marigold Estates project? Once the project is successful, theBelongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

This might be what Robert instructed. Once Konan

successfully wins the bid, the Lambert Group will inject funds, and Konan will abscond with the full
payment, then share the profits with Robert?”
“Very clever,” Hayden praised.
Hayden was like a feeling of elders praising children.
Laurel was a little unhappy.
At that moment, she didn’t argue with Hayden either. She asked again, “How did you know?”
“Didn’t you ask me to closely monitor Konan’s every move? Instead of focusing on his actions, it would
be better to investigate his financial transactions. Although he did manipulate a lot, we can still trace
multiple fund transfers from Konan to Robert’s account. Also,” Hayden paused for a
moment.
Laurel frowned.
“Kermit,” Hayden said slowly.
“So, Marigold Estates project was a conspiracy between Robert and Kermit!” Laurel was truly not
surprised at all.
Hayden nodded and gave Laurel a positive response.
“What I don’t quite understand is, since this matter has. already become a thing of the past and they
have already gained a huge advantage, why do they want to bring it up again? Don’t they fear being
discovered and the potential loss. outweighing the gain?”
“So, it is said that someone was secretly pushing behind the scenes.”

“Bruno didn’t have the right to go this far.” Laurel was certain.
During this stage, Bruno was also just a beginner.
He did not have the ability to do it to such an extent.
So,
Not Bruno.”
“There was influence behind Bruno,” Hayden gave her a
definite answer.
Laurel was taken aback.
Her previous life.
Bruno colluded with the aristocratic family after he turned 28, which was when he made significant
progress in his career as a city official and started frequently associating with the aristocratic family.
Could it be?
Was she deceived by Bruno from the beginning?
Bruno did not marry into the aristocratic family with the Lambert family’s wealth, but it was at the behest
of the aristocratic family that Bruno came to seize the Lambert family’s wealth!
At the thought of that…
Laurel’s heart raced.
If the truth was as she thought, then their family has already been targeted by the aristocratic family.

She was in conflict with an aristocratic family.

“What are you thinking?” Hayden asked Laurel, looking at her expression.
Laurel snapped back to reality.
There were some things she couldn’t tell Hayden.
He may not believe it even if I told him.
Reincarnation, if she were to talk about it, she would be considered crazy.
“I was wondering if I had been constantly deceived by Bruno,” Laurel fabricated a random excuse.
“So Ms. Lambert thought Bruno still had a chance?” Hayden raised an eyebrow.
It was obvious that Hayden was jealous of Bruno.
“Could an adult man please not be so narrow-minded?”
Laurel glanced at Hayden and didn’t want to waste time on trivial matters. Then she redirected the
conversation, “In other words, Kermit is the real culprit!”
