Chapter 187: The True Controller of the Company
Hearing that Mona had found a clue from another deceased, Roan immediately became interested.
"Loelle Post is an architect, he has a small company."
Mona retrieved the information of the construction company, showed it to Roan, and said:
"A month and a half ago, there was something wrong with the company's funding chain.
But it didn't take long for the company to close the gap with a new amount of money. β
Luo An sat down on the chair and said with a smile:
"If I'm not mistaken, the owner behind this money is Triss."
Syllable!
Mona raised her hand and snapped her fingers, indicating that Luo An had guessed correctly, and continued to tap on the keyboard a few times, saying:
"It's a lot of money, and Triss can't afford it herself.
The only explanation I can think of is that Triss used her position as CFO to embezzle money from the cosmetics company. β
Luo An nodded, this was also his speculation.
"One more thing."
Immediately afterwards, Mona called up another piece of information, which was a consumption record:
This is the record of Loelle's consumption at a well-known French restaurant in Manhattan a month ago.
I checked the dining at the restaurant and found that Loelle had chartered the restaurant for two hours that night in order to propose to Triss. β
"Huh?"
Hearing this, Luo An immediately straightened up and became interested.
Taking a closer look at the time of the proposal, Luo An raised his eyebrows and asked:
"The time when Tressey and Loelle broke up before seems to be the day after the proposal."
"That's right!"
Mona nodded heavily:
"I don't know exactly what happened when I proposed, but according to the waiter at the restaurant, the two had an unpleasant quarrel that night."
"Tut-tut."
Roan leaned back in his chair with his chin in his hands.
Loelle and Triss have been together for more than two years, and Loelle's company has problems, and Triss has embezzled company funds to help him, which is a consensual relationship.
But why would Triss turn down Loelle's marriage proposal?
After a long silence, Luo An suddenly thought of something and asked:
"I remember Loelle had a younger brother?"
Mona looked at the information and nodded.
ββ
The next day, in the morning.
Queens, in the construction company, learning of Roan and Mona's intentions, Loelle's brother Trent Post shook his head:
"I'm sorry, I don't know much about my brother's marriage proposal."
Hearing this, the smile on Mona's face slowly disappeared, and the smile on Luo An's face on the side became brighter:
"Are you sure about that? Mr. Post? β
"What, can't you?"
Trent's eyes narrowed slightly:
"Under federal law, I have the authority to refuse to answer your questions."
"Of course you have that power, but we also have the power to investigate anyone involved in a criminal case."
He and Mona poured a cup of coffee, took a shallow sip, and Luo An said with a smile:
"That means we can summon your call logs, your emails.
and your browsing history on the Internet at night, etc. β
"What did you say?"
Trent's face changed, and Luo An continued to say unhurriedly:
"In addition, according to our investigation, there are some problems with the financial situation of your brother's construction company, and we have the authority to investigate its operating conditions and financial information......"
βOKοΌ OKοΌ β
Hearing this, Trent, who had a stake in the construction company, finally couldn't sit still, and slowly squeezed out a stiff smile on his face:
"Don't be so serious, Mr. Detective.
What question did you just ask? My brother's proposal, right, I do know something. β
"Then let's talk about it."
Putting the coffee cup back on the table, Luo Ann pouted, the coffee quality was too low to taste, and then stared at Trent's expression and movements as he spoke.
Seeing the disgusted expression on Luo An's face, the corners of Trent's mouth twitched, and he slowly spoke after a few seconds:
"My brother's proposal failed that night, and he tried to get the woman back afterwards, but they broke up.
The reason for the breakup was mainly because the woman said that she could be in a relationship with my brother, but she couldn't get married because she was too stressed, her life was too crazy, etc.
Hearing these reasons, my brother was furious, thinking that she was casually prevaricating herself.
But my brother really liked that woman, so for more than a month, he always came to me for drinks. β
Luo An continued to ask:
"Did your brother mention the stress and madness in Triss's mouth?"
βNoγβ
Trent shook his head:
"My brother didn't tell me, and I don't think he knows.
If my brother knew, he probably wouldn't have broken up with that woman, would he? β
"Mr. Post."
As soon as Trent's words fell, Luo Ann patted his thigh and stood up, the smile on his face unchanged:
"It says you're a graduate of Harvard University.
As a top student at Harvard, why did you choose to lie in front of FBI agents? β
Hearing this, Mona, who was recording things on the side, hurriedly stopped what she was doing, and then threw a cold look at Trent.
In Mona's cognition, Luo An said that if the other party is lying, then the other party must be lying.
βWhatοΌβ
Trent was stunned, a hint of panic in his eyes.
Luo An took a step forward, his smile still but his tone was cold:
"When he speaks, he pulls his collar, his eyes wander, and his words and physical actions are completely opposite...... Mr. Trent, has anyone ever told you that you don't really know how to lie? β
"I ...... I ......"
Looking at the cold light in Luo An's eyes in front of him, Trent broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't know what to say.
Syllable!
Seeing this, Luo Ann slammed the table hard, startling Trent.
Immediately afterwards, Luo An turned his head directly and said to Mona:
"Call the team leader, Trent Post has repeatedly concealed things from the FBI and hindered our investigation, apply for ...... now"
βNoοΌβ
Before Luo An's words were finished, Trent hurriedly shouted:
"I say! I say it all! β
Mona, who was taking out her mobile phone, heard this, and quietly cast an admiring look at Luo An.
The corners of Luo An's mouth curled slightly, just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning.
The office was quiet for a long time, and in the face of Luo An's indifferent eyes, Trent opened his mouth, and finally said what he was hiding.
"Actually, my brother proposed to Triss for another purpose."
Trent picked up the coffee, poured it all into his stomach, and said:
"That's to find a way to get a stake in that cosmetics company through Trissy."
After graduating from university, after so many years in society, although Loelle has a small company, the company has been in poor condition.
It just so happened that Loelle met Triss at that time, so he had the idea of relying on Triss to reach the pinnacle of life.
ββ¦β¦βx2
Hearing Trent's account, Roan's face was speechless, and Mona's face was full of disdain.
As a woman, she resents this kind of deception under the guise of love.
After pondering for a few seconds, Luo An asked with some confusion:
"Triss was just the CFO of that cosmetics company.
How does Loelle want to get a stake in the company from her? β
"My brother didn't tell me the details."
Trent swallowed and said truthfully:
"But one time my brother got drunk, and he said that the cosmetics company, in a sense, was just a puppet, and the real controller was actually the CFO Triss Perez."
βWhatοΌβ
Hearing this, Mona suddenly raised her head in shock.
