Chapter 140 The Walls Came Tumbling Down

Bun shook her head, "It's not like that. My father wasn't executed secretly because they lost the battle. The enemies knew our strategies before the war. So, we were doomed to lose either way." She managed to say.

"But how?" Linda's curiosity peaked.

Bun looked down on the ground with her lips slightly quivering. Then she bit her lips and said, "It's because of me."

Back then, I was there every night, watching my father planning our strategic moves. I paid so much attention and so I knew almost every detail about them. I did it because I wanted my father to be proud of me, and I knew that's what he wanted."

Bun was becoming calm as she kept talking, "I was kidnapped one night when my father left for a meeting."

"Did they torture you to get the information out of you?" Linda asked, already able to piece the puzzle together.

"No, they didn't. But they hypnotized me. All I could remember was that they put a helmet-like thing on my head, and my head was kind of buzzing and I became so sleepy. And then it was a blur." Bun shuddered, remembering memories that she had tried to suppress. She still has nightmares about it.

"But how did you know you were hypnotized? You were supposed to be unconscious." Linda then brought up another question. Though it was Bun's fault that they lost the battle, one could hardly blame her for being hypnotized and revealing the secrets.

So, Linda began to review the situation and hoped to find something that might help Bun.

It seemed that Sarah Shen found out recently. But how did she find out? Who told her? Linda had no doubt that Sarah Shen would use this information against Bun.

"Well I didn't, at first. I was hypnotized and told them everything, but I had been sent back home when I woke up. And we had already lost the war by that moment. Then, a group of people came to my house and took me away. The doctors ran some tests on me and then told me I was hypnotized and that I had given away all our tactics when I didn't even kn

Paul then took a paper from the file he was carrying, "My Lady, the driver of the truck has a three-year-old daughter. She has heart problems, and they need as much money as they can get to cater for medical expenses." Paul paused as Linda retrieved the paper from his hand and scrolled through it.

"Let me guess, did he just happen to receive a huge amount of money?" Linda looked up and asked. It's as if she knew the answer.

"Yes. And they're sly enough to transfer the money by EMS delivery service other than the bank. I've checked the driver's bank account as well as his relatives', and everything seemed perfectly normal. Then I found out the money was transferred by delivery." Paul paused for effect, looking at Linda.

"Wow, that's so awesome. But how did you find out?" Linda couldn't help but wonder.

"Haha, My Lady, all packages are scanned before they're collected. We've checked them all and found this EMS package extremely strange. The scanned photo revealed that the package contained?stacks of banknotes. This peaked my curiosity so I investigated further."

Paul then revealed another point, "The money was sent by a neighbor of Sarah Shen's old classmate from elementary school." Sarah Shen again? What in the world is she up to? Linda thought.
