Chapter 909 An Unforgivable Sinner
Samson sucked in a deep breath before telling Theodore and his family everything. The trio’s expressions turned absolutely dark.
The next moment, Chiara said, “Ivanka has a sharp mind. She’s good at finding loopholes. Are you sure you didn’t run your mouth off?”
Samson’s expression instantly changed. “I…”
Theodore and his family stared at him.
Then, Theodore asked, “So you did spill something, huh?”
“I didn’t!” Samson was so daunted that he immediately refuted Theodore. The next second, Samson noticed he had raised his voice, so he quickly explained himself. “I don’t think I did. I insisted to her that I didn’t know anything about that issue. I told her that the medicine was prescribed to you to improve your health. Besides, they can’t just make up whatever they want about the medicine that I’ve prescribed. It has been a long time. No one would remember what the medicine was.”
Lyla frowned. “There’s nothing wrong with what you said. If you told her that you still remember the medicine prescribed, it would seem unconvincing and only raise her suspicion.”
Chiara’s expression was extremely dark. “It doesn’t matter whether you’ve been deliberately saying that you don’t know anything. Ivanka is already investigating us. If she came to you, it means she has obtained some evidence. Did she tell you anything about it?”
Samson shook his head. “I can’t tell from her expression. She seemed like she hadn’t found any proof. She only found that the issue had a weak connection with me. Perhaps she wanted to test the waters and threaten me to reveal the truth.”
He suddenly remembered Ivanka’s words.
Ivanka had told him that Theodore would certainly make him the scapegoat if the issue was exposed. By then, Samson would become an unforgivable sinner.
For a moment, Samson felt a chill down the spine.
“No. She’s very certain with every step she takes. She must have found some substantial evidence. Perhaps she found something through your words today.” Lyla frowned as she made the analysis.
Chiara’s expression turned pale. “How is that possible?! We did it very secretly back then. How can she possibly find out about it?!”
Right after she spoke, everyone fell silent.
Samson’s forehead was covered with cold sweat. He subconsciously wiped them away.
His worry was different than that of Theodore and his family.
He was worried that Theodore would make him the scapegoat.
Meanwhile, Theodore and his family were worried that once Ivanka found out the truth, it would negatively impact Lane’s Group.
But they could not go to Ivanka so rashly. If not, she may discover more clues.
“No. It’s impossible. We did it so secretly back then. Even if she wants to investigate the matter, she can’t find any traces. Besides, we’re the only ones who know about Fernando’s allergy. He never told anyone else about his allergy because he did not want outsiders to use it against him. So, Ivanka cannot use this statement against us,” Chiara said through her gnashed teeth.
That was why they put the medicine inside Fernando’s drawer.
Everyone fell silent.
Samson felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. He was both distraught and caught in a dilemma. He wondered if he had made the right choice to discuss the issue with Theodore.
While Samson was feeling apprehensive, Theodore said, “It looks like we need to get ready early for this. Better to be safe than sorry.”
“That’s right.” Lyla agreed.
Samson became stiffer.
He wondered if they meant to make him take the blame earlier.
While Samson was thinking this, Theodore turned around and looked at him.
