NovelOnlineChapter 928: 928. Lily Bankston has no problem.
After all, even before this, she had clung to the hope that he was still alive, knowing all too well that she was mostly deceiving herself.
Robert Green's progress was faster than Elly Campbell had anticipated; within a week, he had thoroughly investigated Lily Bankston's life in the United States over the years.
"Madam, everything we could find is here." Robert Green handed over the materials to Elly Campbell, then stood respectfully to one side.
Elly Campbell took them and read through the thick stack of papers; by the tshe finished, half an hour had passed.

"Yes, Madam, this is all there is." Elly Campbell pursed her lips, staring silently at the documents in front of her.
The results of the investigation revealed that Lily Bankston's activities over the years were quite normal-she was mostly at hor at school, occasionally traveling.
She would meet Adam Jones once a year, leading a very simple and regular life.
Her social circle was very limited, essentially just the Professors at Harvard, no one else.
"Is the person you hired reliable?" "This..." Robert Green couldn't cup with an answer immediately, "Madam, the person I hired is a former classmate of mine, who now runs their own private detective agency." "How should I put it, it's like you suspecting Miss Bankston. If Miss Bankston truly had an issue, then even if Mr. Jones hadn't lost his memory and insisted that Miss Bankston was not a problem, the issue would still arise eventually." Elly Campbell nodded her head, understanding Robert Green's point.
The feared possibility is betrayal by the person most trusted; that is what truly catches one off guard.
So asking Robert Green now whether the person he hired is reliable was actually quite meaningless.
"Madam, all I can say is that, to me, he seems reliable." Robert Green pushed his glasses up his nose and responded in such a manner.
"Could it really be that I'm overthinking this?" Elly Campbell said softly, with downcast eyes.
Robert Green glanced at her, then hesitantly spoke: "Madam, to be honest, I've never understood why you suspect Miss Bankston. To Mr. Jones, she is like a mother, and after so many years, it seems unlikely she would have any reason to harm him. Moreover, on the day of the car accident, Miss Bankston was also in the car. If it hadn't been for Mr. Jones, she would have been the one to drown." The reason Elly Campbell doubted Lily Bankston was not just because her husband only remembered Sophie Baker and her, which was already suspicious.
If it's because he sees Miss Bankston as a mother that he's so close to her, what about Grandma? What about me? What about William Campbell? There are others close to him, not just Lily Bankston. Moreover, there's also Sophie Baker.
Remembering both Lily Bankston and Sophie Baker is problematic in itself.
Add to that the email, Adam's sudden disappearance, and the death of Jacob Clark; all these seemed I m uprelated to Lily Bankston at first glance, but thinking carefully, all these events could be connected to her. But Elly Campbell also knew that these suspicions alone weren't enough to definitively label Lily Bankston as suspicious.
As for the fact that Miss Bankston nearly died in the car accident as well...
Elly Campbell thought darkly for a moment and said, "Years ago, Sophie Baker almost lost her life trying to save your boss. Do you think Sophie Baker is problematic?" Robert Green: "..."
The incident had occurred when Mr. Jones was 23, which was half a year before he started working for MF Jones. So, he had only becfamiliar with the event when Mr. Jones asked him to investigate what had happened back then.
