Chapter 636 Father and Son(1/2)

Chapter 637 Father and Son

West Los Angeles, Coffey Building.

The building is 40 stories high and has been built for thirty years. Because there are sufficient funds for repairs, the building still looks very impressive from the outside.

Xiao Hei stopped the car, looked at the tall building, and asked, "Captain, what are we doing at Kofi Group?"

"Talk to the head of Coffey Group?"

"OK." Xiao Hei nodded, "Who is the current person in charge of Kofi Group?"

"I don't know either.

I will talk to whoever is the current person in charge of the Coffey Group." Luke walked straight into the building.

Xiao Hei chased after him, "I understand, whoever benefits the most from this case may be the murderer."

The hotel lobby is very grand, covered with dark marble floor tiles, with wall lamps turned on above, with a seating area on the right and the front desk on the left.

Luke had already seen the introduction of Kofi Group in the car and said to the front desk, "Hello, I want to meet the CEO of your company."

Luke doesn't know who has the final say in this company now, and he probably doesn't know the front desk either. The best way is to meet the actual manager of the company and find out what he says.

A blonde woman in a black business dress asked, "Sir, what is your name?"

"I am Mr. Lee."

"Mr. Li, do you have an appointment?"

"No."

"Feel sorry.

The CEO's schedule is full today, you need to make an appointment to see him..."

"Hi, Captain Li, we meet again." A white man came down from the elevator and greeted with a smile.

Luke turned around and saw that it was Otway Stone, the film company director he had met yesterday.

"Mr. Otway Stone, why are you here?"

Otway Stone smiled and said, "After talking to you yesterday, I realized that the Coffey Group has changed.

Perhaps, I can take this opportunity to fight for some rights and interests of my own.

So, I made an appointment to meet Ms. Grace Coffey, and we had a great conversation."

Seeing the other party's cheerful expression, Luke guessed, "Congratulations, you can make the movie you wanted."

"Haha, it's not that easy. I have to finish that...family documentary first.

Say no more, I'm in a hurry.

It suddenly became busy, and I'm really not used to it." Otway Stone waved his hand and prepared to leave.

Luke stopped the other party, "Ms. Grace Coffey is also in Coffey Tower?"

"Yes, she talked to me in the chairman's office." After Otway Stone finished speaking, he left with a smile.

"It seems she is the one we are going to find." Luke said to Xiao Hei, then turned to the front desk lady and said, "I want to see the chief director, Mrs. Grace Coffey."

The blonde still said the same thing as before, "Sir, do you have an appointment?"

"No, but please help us contact you.

Maybe, she wants to see us too." Luke showed his police badge, "Just say that Officer Li from the Robbery and Murder Division wants to see her, and she knows who I am."

"Wait a moment." The blonde nodded and picked up the landline to make a call.

After a while, the blonde hung up the phone, her attitude was a little more friendly, and she said with a smile, "Officer Li, Mrs. Grace Coffey is waiting for you in the chairman's office on the 30th floor."

"Thanks."

Luke and Xiao Hei took the elevator to the 30th floor.

The elevator door opened, and a short-haired white woman about forty years old and smartly dressed stood outside. She asked, "Officer Li?"

"it's me."

"Please come with me. I am Ms. Coffey's assistant."

The short-haired woman walked quickly and without much communication with Luke, she took them outside the chairman's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in." A woman's voice came from inside the room.

The short-haired woman opened the door and motioned for Luke and the two of them to enter the office.

The office is very spacious and gorgeously decorated. Opposite is a row of floor-to-ceiling windows with excellent lighting. Sitting behind the desk is a woman in a blue dress, none other than Grace Coffey.

Grace Coffey stood up and said hello, "Captain Li, I didn't expect to meet again so soon. I hope you brought good news."

Luke said, "The investigation of the case has indeed made some progress. I came to Kofi Group to consult on some matters."

"How did you know I was here?"

Luke shook his head, "Actually, I don't know, I just want to talk to someone who knows about the Kofi Group.

I happened to run into Director Otway Stone downstairs, and he said you were here."

"Please take a seat. What would you like to drink?"

"Thank you, no need."

Grace Coffey glanced at Xiao Hei and continued to ask, "Do you think my husband's death is related to the company?"

“It’s not certain yet, but as the chairman of Coffey Group, it’s very likely.

We need to rule that out."

"OK, if you have any questions, just ask."

"Are you familiar with Otway Stone?"

"He used to be my husband's friend. Later, his film company's capital chain broke and faced bankruptcy. It was my husband who invested in his company.

I've met him a few times, but I can't say we're familiar with him."

"What about your husband's relationship with him?"

"Well... this is a bit complicated to say. Originally, their relationship was very good, but once interests were involved between friends, it would become troublesome. Yes, my husband used this word to describe their relationship."

Luke said, "I talked to Otway Stone, and according to him, your husband tried to annex Otway Films."

"I know, my husband mentioned it to me and he was very sad about it.

He had no intention of annexing the Otway Film Company. He knew that Otway Stone owed a lot of foreign debt and needed to repay the foreign debt through the profit of the film company.

Therefore, after my husband took over the film company, he immediately invested money in the film company and made a movie. However, the movie not only did not make any money, but actually lost a lot of money.

That's why my husband terminated his film investment plan.

It’s not that my husband doesn’t want to make money by making movies, but he is waiting for good subjects and projects, but Otway Stone can’t wait.

He was eager to use the profits of the film company to repay his debts, and asked my husband again and again to invest in new movie shooting projects, but the scripts were no better than the previous movie.

It is precisely because of this that my husband feels that Otway Stone has lost his basic judgment as a film investor.

The more urgent he became, the less my husband dared to hand over the management of the film company to him.

He's like a red-eyed gambler who will risk everything to make money."

"When I met Otway Stone, he seemed very happy. You gave him the management of Otway Films again?"

Grace Coffey thought for a while, "You can say that, but there are conditions. He must first finish filming the Coffey family documentary."

Luke asked curiously, "From what you just said, it seems that you agree with your husband's decision, so why did you hand over the film company to Otway Stone?"

Aren't you worried that he will make a new movie in a hurry for quick success?"

Grace Coffey smiled and said, "Wow, that's a good question.

My husband just passed away and Coffey Group needs stability...

I need supporters and don't want to hear too many opposing voices.

So, at least for now...I'll make some concessions.

As for what will happen in the future... who knows?

Maybe it's a new situation.

Let’s wait until he finishes filming the Coffey family documentary before we can talk about it.”

Luke teased, "So, you found yourself a free coolie."

Grace Coffey shrugged, "You can't say that. If he can come up with a good script and make a profitable movie, I have no reason to refuse."

Luke changed the subject, "Do you know Wang Shaokang?"

Grace Coffey thought for a moment, "What does he do?"

"A lawyer."

"I have indeed dealt with many lawyers, but I am not very familiar with this name." Grace Coffey subconsciously asked, "Which law firm is he from?"
