Chapter 642: Three Recordings
An audio recording of a man and a woman transmitted smoothly from Frey’s phone.
Anyone could tell that the voices belonged to Kylie and Frey.
“Honey, I’ve told you several times that the stock market is booming lately. I invested a hundred and fifty grand and made over a dozen grand within just half a month. But my capital is too small. If we have millions of dollars as capital, I guarantee that we will be able to earn at least a million within half a month! This is much more than what our jobs pay!
“Besides, the company’s money is lying around in the company’s account anyway, and it’d be a waste just to leave it there. We might as well withdraw it for us to make a good deal of money! Anyway, the company’s finances and accounts are now under your control, and you have no superior to supervise you. What are you afraid of?”
“But… in case the Parkers suddenly check the accounts…”
“Ugh, what are you afraid of!? I told you. We’re just going to transfer the money away temporarily. We’re not going to withdraw all of it anyway. We’ll just take about ten million. When we make a profit of about three million in the stock market, we will naturally return the money and tally the accounts. No one will find out!
“Besides, once we get the three million or so, it’ll be much faster for us to continue investing in stocks or do other investments. Don’t you agree?
“Honey, what are you hesitating for? Nowadays, those who starve to death are the timid ones, and those who are courageous are living large. Just listen to me. I guarantee there won’t be any problems, so just wait to get rich!”
“Okay, I’ll listen to you and take a gamble!”
…
After the recording played, Frey glared at Kylie. “Now, what else do you have to say? You instigated me into embezzling company funds to speculate in the stock market. What other excuses do you have now that there’s concrete evidence?!”
“You… you actually recorded our conversation?!” Kylie blurted in astonishment.
She had thought that she had Frey, this chubby old man, all wrapped around her finger and within her control. But she hadn’t expected him to keep his guard up against her and even secretly recorded their conversation!
Now, the fact that she had instigated and encouraged Frey to use the company’s funds to speculate in the stock market was a nail in the coffin!
After a short period of panic, Kylie said, “Fine, I admit that I indeed told you about this before. But at the time, I was just thinking about it! The financial power of the Heavenly Pavilion lies in your hands, and you’re the one who put the massive sum of ten million into your private account. I didn’t force you to do it!
“Also, this money has been in your hands since the beginning, and I haven’t seen a single cent of it. Don’t say that you gave me the money! If you don’t believe me, show us the transfer records, and we’ll see who you transferred the five million to!”
Kylie was full of confidence and gusto when she said her last sentence.
Reason being, she indeed wasn’t the recipient of the funds transferred from Frey’s account. No matter what the foolish Frey said, she would never hand over this sum of money!
Frey looked at the smug expression on Kylie’s face and suddenly smiled. “Kylie Reed, are you trying to hold out hope until the very end before you face death? Fine. I’ll make you completely convinced, you vicious woman!”
Then Frey clicked on another voice recording on his phone.
Kylie’s and Frey’s familiar voices were in it too.
“Honey, you’re just unlucky this time. That’s just how the stock market is. There’s nothing we can do about it! But fortunately, we still have more than five million, so it’s not a complete loss. Don’t be too vexed about it!”
“How can I not be vexed? I took ten million out of the company’s account! Now that we only have five million left, there’s no way I can make up for the deficit even if I use all the money I’ve saved over the years! If the Parkers investigate this, I’ll be doomed!”
“Honey, don’t worry. Hear me out. I have a friend who specializes in running some secretive dealings, such as money-lending and other stuff. If you give me the remaining five million, I can definitely help you earn ten million or even more within a month or two! Just trust me!”
The audio recording confirmed the authenticity of Frey’s previous statement about Kylie instigating him to transfer the remaining five million dollars to her account.
Immediately afterward, Frey sneered and clicked on another audio recording without waiting for Kylie to say anything.
“Kylie, why doesn’t this account number you gave me belong to your personal account?”
“Rest assured, Honey. This is my friend’s account. You can just transfer the money straight to his account. Even if you transfer the five million to me, I’ll still have to transfer it to him. Don’t you think this extra step is redundant?”
“Okay then. I’ll transfer the money to the account number you gave me!”
“Okay, Honey, just wait for a while. My friend is really impressive, and we’ll definitely be able to earn double of the capital you invested!”
…
By the time the recording ended, Kylie’s calm face had already shattered into countless pieces, and she was now as pale as a sheet.
She hadn’t expected Frey to record all three of these conversations!
Just how wary was he against me?!
Does he have any more incriminating voice recordings?
But she couldn’t be bothered to think of anything else now because the three voice recordings that Frey had played were enough to condemn her for her misdeeds and leave her with no means of rebuttal.
At this moment, the others present were appalled by their behavior.
On the one hand, they were shocked by their audacity to conspire and embezzle a massive sum of $10 million from the company’s accounts to speculate on stocks while keeping their guards up against each other.
Moreover, while Kylie was addressing Frey with mushy and endearing terms, she had also come up with the idea of making Frey transfer the money to someone else’s account to shirk the responsibility. On the other hand, Frey was just as amazing. While being bewitched by Kylie and colluding with her, he had secretly left a backup plan for himself by recording their conversations.
The two of them were really compatible because they were equally dishonest!
Seeing how miserable Kylie was and how she was at a loss for words, Frey looked rather thrilled and resentful at the same time. “Bitch, you’re the cause of these matters. You want to push all the blame on me and escape just because you think I don’t have any evidence? Dream on!
“Now that there is concrete proof, can you continue to defend yourself? Let’s see what you have to say! I told you. Even if I go to hell, I will definitely drag you down with me too, you vicious wench! Haha!”
Frey laughed hysterically.
