Chapter 525 Drop the Act
He didn’t expect that he had still overestimated how cold and heartless people could be.
When money is involved, and the profit is so big that it goes beyond what a person can understand, people will still lose their conscience.

It was also his own fault. He wasn’t capable enough. The person he sent out did not bring back any useful information and was even turned against him.
Because of his carelessness and overconfidence, Miguel had been poisoned for a long time, and no one noticed.
Kolter’s wife was one of the people in the Nygard Residence who handled daily meals and living needs. Miguel had trusted and liked her the most since he was young.
That was how she was able to poison him.
From this, it seemed that Regina still doubted Raymond and stayed on guard.
The people behind her were also still suspicious of him. They knew he was not truly in the dark about everything.
“Mr. Nygard, I really don’t know what you’re talking about. If you don’t trust me, I can resign to prove my innocence,” Kolter said without hesitation.
After all, being the personal driver of the head of the Nygards came with were no less than those of top office executives.

He agreed to quit so quickly because he knew Raymond no longer trusted him.
More importantly, he was afraid to stay near this man any longer. The longer he stayed, the more dangerous it could become.
On top of that, Regina had already given him more than enough benefits-enough for his whole family to move overseas and live comfortably for the rest of their lives.
Raymond said calmly, “Sure. Then quit. You can stay in that place for the rest of your life.”
“W-what? What do you mean?” Kolter didn’t understand his words at first.
The next second, several people in uniforms walked in and grabbed him.
“Kolter Baldwin, you are suspected of embezzlement, money laundering, fraud, and other crimes. Please come with us for investigation.”

Kolter looked completely shocked. But no matter how much he explained or struggled, no one listened.
Not only was he taken away, but his wife, who worked in the Nygard Residence, was taken away as well.
Since Raymond already knew the truth, there was no way he would let this family stay and continue hurting his family.
He didn’t just want them locked up-he wanted them to spend the rest of their lives in prison.
Only then could he feel at ease. Only then could he be sure they would never take revenge on his family or be used again to trick his sons or his wife.
Raymond couldn’t be sure he would always be by their side. This was the only way he knew to protect them.
He had just finished dealing with all this mess when Regina called him.
He guessed Gianna had already told her what happened.
Regina cried. “Raymond, what is going on? Gianna is clearly our daughter. How could you treat her like that?
“The child is innocent. If she did something wrong, tell me. Take it out on me, not on the child.”
As soon as the call connected, Regina didn’t even wait for him to speak. She started crying and complaining through tears.
Raymond said coldly, “Oh, really? Then what about my driver? You know exactly what happened there, don’t you?”
He asked directly. His tone was firm, and all the old warmth and kindness were gone.
Regina did not expect him to know about this. Her heart dropped the moment she heard it.
How did Raymond find out?
Did that stupid Kolter betray me?
Impossible.
I had given them enough money for their whole family to live well for life. There was no way he would be that foolish and turn himself in.

Regina said, “Raymond, could there be some misunderstanding? Let’s meet and talk. This isn’t clear over the phone.”
