Chapter 1596: Motive to Kill Ou Xue

If not for the deep roots the Ou Family had established in Xiangjiang, they might have been toppled by Jinhui.

But despite this, Jinhui has still grown from an inconspicuous small enterprise more than twenty years ago into today’s major corporate group, showing a faint trend of rivaling the Ou Group.

Some even assert that in a few years, Jinhui might surpass the Ou Group!

However, why would the second basement level of the Ou Family’s housekeeper’s room contain the account books of Jinhui Group?

Could it be that the hidden boss behind Jinhui Group is this housekeeper named Ah Fu?

A mere housekeeper actually being the hidden boss of a major corporate group?

If he had enough money to run a company, why would he remain as a mere housekeeper at the Ou Family?

The difference in status between a big boss and a private housekeeper is too vast, making it hard to connect the two.

But if he isn’t the hidden boss behind Jinhui, how does one explain the roomful of account books?

Mengyu, using Divine Sense to probe further, finally discovered evidence that Housekeeper Fu is one of Jinhui Group’s hidden bosses. Many documents bore his signature.

Searching further, Mengyu finally saw the company’s initial documents. The legal representative listed was surprisingly Ou Xue’s name!

Did Ou Xue know?

Mengyu gasped: This is major news! Ou Xue secretly owned a major corporate group in Xiangjiang!

Suddenly, Mengyu remembered when Old Sir Ou asked Housekeeper Fu for the account book of his daughter’s dividends stored in the Swiss Bank, Housekeeper Fu replied: "Master, it’s hard to calculate for the moment."

A bold speculation flashed through her mind: This Housekeeper Fu used Ou Xue’s dividends to start the company and then deposited the money in Switzerland.

However, Old Sir Ou wasn’t a fool. If he asked the housekeeper to deposit money, why didn’t he look at the deposit receipt?

And once deposited, the money cannot be withdrawn without the Master’s seal. Ten years ago, who else could get the Master’s seal? The Madam!

Considering the two rooms have a secret passage connecting them, Mengyu felt certain the other company’s big boss must be the Madam!

It’s quite possible that Housekeeper Fu deposited the money and secretly withdrew it again.

Or when depositing new money back then, he withdrew the old funds and invested them into the company they started.

As for why they used Ou Xue’s name, they probably left themselves a way out. Once things went awry, they could say it was set up under the orders of the late Madam Gu Weiwei for Ou Xue.

If my suspicions are correct, I fear that at most only last year’s dividends for Ou Xue remain in the Swiss Bank, while the rest of the money has been withdrawn.

Then, it isn’t hard to guess why they had the motive to kill Ou Xue.

It was probably because they had used all of Ou Xue’s dividends for the company. Although the company’s name is written in Ou Xue’s name, they couldn’t let her find out that the company was registered under her name.

To keep the company forever, they could only kill her!

Another reason for killing Ou Xue is because the dividends they used couldn’t be withdrawn immediately, and upon her return, the first thing she would request would naturally be her dividends.

But as long as they killed Ou Xue, those dividends wouldn’t need to be withdrawn immediately. They would first have to deal with Ou Xue’s affairs, and perhaps only once a distribution plan was formulated, could those dividends be withdrawn, giving them time to rectify the situation.
