Chapter 580 No One Can Save You Now
At 6.00PM, Raymond opened the window and frowned when he saw a few cars parked by his house.
He knew that besides the police, Aidan's men were keeping their eyes on him. Moreover, he also knew
that Leanna had told Richard to come and visit him, even though Richard didn't say anything. Luckily,
he had a plan prepared for this.
After some time, his takeout delivery arrived. After Raymond took the takeout, he closed the door and
curtains. Then, he took out all the food and picked up the new ID card and the boat ticket to Zumbae at
11.00PM from underneath.
When Jimmy visited him at the prison, Raymond told him he would give the latter the contact number of
those guys in exchange for Jimmy's help. Jimmy couldn't leave because of Aidan, and those people
could help him. Thus, Jimmy accepted his proposal and bailed him out of jail.
The route to leave Highside that Jimmy gave him was the smuggling chain he had. Hence, it was easy
to get him out of there.
When the sky turned dark, Raymond changed his clothes and went downstairs to buy a packet of
cigarettes. Then, he went to a restaurant to dine in. During the process, he could sense that more than
a person was following him. Thus, he went to a crowded supermarket and headed toward the children's
playground. At that moment, he took the opportunity to get into the emergency exit. Immediately, he
took off his jacket and wore a hat as he quickly rushed into the basement and left from another exit.
After that, he escaped from those people.
Then, he took a cab and told the driver to head to the outskirts. After he exited the car, he followed the
crowd into the train station. He took the train to the dock by Cestryia. In this case, when they
discovered that Raymond had gotten in a cab, it would be too late for them to catch him.

When Raymond arrived at the dock, it was 10.30PM.
He pressed his hat down and looked around. There was nothing wrong.
Jimmy had always cared about this smuggling chain. If anything were to happen, even the slightest,
this place would immediately be on high alert.
Raymond took the ticket and got on the ship successfully. However, when he opened the door of his
room and saw a person inside, he couldn't help but stare at her in horror.
"If you were to arrive any later, the ship would leave without you." Leanna sat in the room with a smile
on her face.
Looking at her, Raymond took a step back. At that moment, the empty corridor was suddenly filled with
people. All of them surrounded him.
Raymond frowned and asked, "How did you…"
"Why am I here? Is that what you are asking?" Leanna's tone was calm. "Technically speaking, it's all
thanks to you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that Jimmy has been using the Crossley
Group's cargo ship to do illegal dealings."
When Raymond heard her words, he recalled the documents he had put on Richard's desk. In that split
second, his face turned grim, and he clenched his fists.
"I have been thinking the whole day as to how you will escape. However, since you have asked for
Jimmy's help, it wouldn't be that simple as to bail you out. So, I tried my luck, and it worked. You are
here," explained Leanna.
After a few seconds, Raymond smirked coldly and said, "Although this is the Crossley Group's ship,
Jimmy isn't the only one benefiting from it. Nothing will come good if you cause a stir. Moreover, the
Crossley Group might be accused of smuggling drugs."
"You're right. That's why I immediately reported this to the police and cooperated with them."
Raymond's expression changed drastically when he saw the police.
"Oh yeah," Leanna continued, "I have given the police all the information that you had. Everyone that is
connected to this will be taken away, including Jimmy. This time, he is in a sticky situation himself, and
no one can save you anymore."
Raymond was devastated when he was taken away by the police. Never would he have expected that
he would dig his own grave.
As Leanna watched him leave, she suddenly thought about Celia, whom she had met just a few times.
Now that Raymond was guilty of murder and deliberately helped Jimmy to smuggle drugs, he would be
charged with a death sentence. However, Celia would never come back to life.
At this moment, Richard said, "Miss McKinney, Mr. Ollander has been arrested."
Leanna nodded and said, "Let's go."
At noon, she looked through the documents someone had put on Richard's desk. At that moment, she
suddenly realized that only a few people would know so much about Jimmy's dirt and could put the
documents on Richard's desk while avoiding the surveillance camera. Hence, she had suspicions
about Raymond, who wanted to escape from Jimmy's control.
Immediately, she took the documents and went to the police station. Then, she discussed the plan for
that night's actions with them.
As Leanna stood by the dock, she turned around and looked at the cargo ship. On their way here,
Richard had told her that this ship had existed for twenty years. This was the first boat of the Crossley
Group after Lloyd was in charge of the company. However, Leroy had used this ship as a means of
trading illegally.
Thinking about it, Leanna turned to Richard. "Get rid of the things inside and demolish the ship." She
felt that it was time for the ship to say goodbye to the world.
"Yes."
Just as Leanna took a few steps forward, she saw a Rolls-Royce parked not far away. Because of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFreddie, Aidan knew she had been to the police station.
At this moment, Aidan got out of the car. When Richard saw him, he stepped back and went to deal
with the ship.
"I'll give you a ride home," said Aidan as he stood before Leanna.
"No thanks. I have my own car," replied Leanna faintly.
Hearing her words, Aidan looked at her car and said slowly, "If I guessed correctly, your car has a
breakdown."
Leanna was confused.
As soon as his words fell, the driver approached Leanna and said, "There is something wrong with the
car, Miss McKinney. I can't start it." Then, he mumbled to himself. "That's strange. It was perfectly fine
just a moment ago."
Listening to his words, Leanna looked at Aidan, and the latter cocked an eyebrow.
You are f*cking right, then. I bet you are the one behind this. Thinking about it, she took a deep breath
and said to the driver, "Call a tow truck."
The driver hummed in response and left.
On the other hand, Aidan smiled and opened his car door as he tilted his head, signaling her to get on.
However, Leanna ignored him and turned around. Just as she was about to call a cab, a police car
stopped before them, and a police officer put his head out of the window. "I heard something wrong
with your car, Miss McKinney. How about I give you a ride home?"
"That'll be great. Thank you." Leanna shoved her phone in her pocket and smiled.
Looking at the outcome, Aidan was utterly speechless.
After Leanna got into the car, Aidan followed suit. When Leanna looked at him, he looked back with a
stoic expression. "What? Can't I sit here? I haven't experienced sitting in a police car before."
Leanna was speechless and thought, This is getting unbearable.
