Another Possibility
Mr. Lawrence’s state was even worse than just now.
He probably felt that there was nothing left to struggle on, so he could only honestly aive an account of
what he knew.
The police pursued the question that they did not get a satisfactory answer on earlier.
“Mr. Lawrence, how did you contact the owner of the underground casino? Were you alone the first time
you went there? Or did someone take you there?”
Mr. Lawrence looked at Lance with a gloomy face. Every word he said was the opposite of his original
intention of sitting in this position.
Yet, no amount of regret could bring everything back to the way it was in the beginning.
“I went alone. At that time, I just got this position, so I had more social engagements. Everyone was
trying to get in my good graces, so I would basically go for drinks every day. One time, I drank too much.
Everyone left, so I also wanted to leave. There were barely any people on that street, and somehow, I
just walked to a doorway. I didn’t know at first, but after going in, I found out that it’s a n underground
casino…”
Mr. Lawrence spoke with difficulty and lowered his head in regret.

lot of money at first, then I was recommended to play in some of the big games. The stakes got bigger,
and it got more addictive, so…”
Mr. Lawrence did not continue.
They could imagine the things that followed.
It was nothing but one trap after another. In order for Mr. Lawrence to jump into their trap, they gave him
some benefits to make him let down his guard.
As a result…
After a few seconds of silence, Lance, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
“Do they know about your identity and what you do? Was this misappropriation of money your initiative to
propose, or did someone guide you to do so?”
This question stunned everyone.
To the police, this was just a case of an individual being bewitched by an underground casino. It was just
a slippery slope downhill from there.
However, Lance somehow thought of another reason.
This might be a competitor intentionally setting them up. After all, Sheldon Corporation just set u pa
branch in Atlanta. The pie was only so big, so if one person got a bigger share, others would certainly get
less. Naturally, Sheldon Corporation would become an eyesore to other competitors.
The liquidity on the books was around $500 million. Mr. Lawrence was not ballsy enough and only
transferred out $200 million.
If all the money had been transferred out, needless to think, their Atlanta branch would become
paralyzed, and all projects would come to a halt. Then, they would not be able to survive in Atlanta.
If someone deliberately misled Mr. Lawrence, then this would mean that it was a business competition.
Thus, they would need to be even more vigilant in the future.
Mr. Lawrence’s face changed slightly. He thought about what happened and shook his pale face.
