The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 262

Joshua and Heather were so terrified that they hastily backed away from the guns that were suddenly painted at them.

They had no choice but to step back inside the house. The door was shut from the outside as soon as they entered.

The ambiance in the house changed drastically, Joshua and Heather were shaking and their faces were ghastly pale.

Joshua said shakily, “Isla… How… How dare you report me to the police… Tell me, was the money not used for Juno’s treatment? Even though the treatment didn’t work, you were the one who wanted to give it a try, right?”

Isla and Juno ignored him.

Adrian said, “Enter.”

The door opened and an entourage trooped into the house. “Sir!”

Adrian beckoned and said, “Freeze Joshua, Heather, and all the other family members’ bank accounts. Have the department investigate the flow of the money and report back to me.”

“Yes, sir!” The entourage answered and immediately exited the house.

In reality, Adrian had already reached out to the department before coming here because he wanted to make Juno’s uncle pay the price for taking that money. There was no one in the yard when Joshua came earlier because the department personnel had Vel to arrive.

Now that they were here, Joshua would not be able to leave even if he wanted to.

Joshua and Heather’s earlier confidence had completely vanished. They looked at Adrian and asked in a trembling voice, “Who …Who the hell are you?”

Adrian smiled and said, “I was your brother’s comrade so I’m a member of the department, of course. I’m from Wyvern Peak I’m here today to look into the missing death gratuity.”

“Wh-What?” Joshua’s knees buckled and he collapsed to the ground. He bralo down almost instantaneously. He had never exported this to happen one day.

Ever since Joseph died, he had not shown one ounce of respect toward Isla and was envious that she had been given such a large amount of money. Hence, at his wife’s instigation, he sn atched the money from Isla..

Joshua had no idea that the Battle Warrior Department would look into the money’s whereabouts someday.

“Uh… My friend, I believe that there’s been a misunderstanding. The money was used to treat my niece’s legs. I’m telling the truth, I swear,” Joshua said in a panic.

“That’s right, str. We’re not lying to you. We are very close to Juno’s family.” Heather added hastily.

Adrian remained silent. Suddenly, his phone rang

He picked up the call and put it on speaker. The other end reported, “Three hundred and fifty thousand dollars was deposited into Beather’s parent’s bank account. Another one hundred and forty thousand was transferred to Heather’s younger brother.

“Joshua, on the other hand, had gambled away a few hundred thousand over the past few years. There is currently three hundred and fifty thousand in Juslana’s bank account

“These amounts were suddenly transferred into their accounts without any official company transactions. On the other hand, there was a transfer from Isla’s account to an account ending with the number 4,04, a few years ago. The amount was one point two million dollars.

“The account ending with the number 404 carried out multiple transactions to different accounts According to the bank’s investigation, a majority of the money ended up in Joshua’s account through various means.”

Adrian hung up the call. He looked at the couple who were close to collapsing and said, “Stace you have the know-how to do such things, I believe you understand the consequences.

“If you don’t want anybody to know what you’ve done, don’t do it in the first place!”

Adrian snapped his fingers. The door flew open and more than ten men entered the house,

Adrian beckoned and said, “Joshua, you and your wife will be given one minute to say your last words. When you’re done, you will be executed. However, the accounts of you and your family members will remain frozen. You won’t have any assets to give away even if you have a will. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

“Your countdown starts now.”

Adrian started a countdown timer on his phone.
