What?!Kate and Christina couldn't believe their ears. It was as if they were hearing things.Was the man really saying a hundred million dollars' worth of building materials would be destroyed and disposed of? Really?Kate heaved a soft sigh as she tried to calm down."Mr. Grizman, I believe there must have been a mix-up somewhere, as the goods we ordered were all quality products. There's no way they would turn out to be fake all of a sudden."Even though Kate was trying her best to keep her voice calm, it gradually grew higher in pitch.This is a hundred million dollars we're talking about.There was no way her demeanor wouldn't change.Linus noticed that the cool-looking Kate had suddenly become dangerous before him at this moment.Then, he quickly said, "Miss Bolton, the goods wouldn’t have been seized if they weren’t fake. If you don’t believe me, you can come take a look at them yourselves."At this moment, Kate's panic grew more serious.She didn't expect Linus to be so confid

Alex couldn't understand why Linus was making this difficult. What was there for him to bring out the importer just to ask a few questions to clear his name from the mess?Even though Alex's anger had already grown wild in his head at this moment, he didn't want to react.Instead, he asked Linus, "Since when do you have such a law? Do you think I'm ignorant about your laws?"Linus quickly waved his hands and said, "I never said that, Mr. Hill. Just that the situation on the ground was so serious that the new law had to be implemented.""Oh, wow! I see. Could you please explain why this law was implemented?" Alex was only hiding his anger behind the question."It's just to protect our investigation, Mr. Hill. The organization is trying to prevent the culprits from being coerced into agreeing to a forced claim, which would distort our investigation from the beginning."Alex wanted to pretend he didn’t understand what Linus was trying to insinuate, but he couldn’t keep it to himself."Ar

Kate and Christina settled in the car. For almost twenty minutes, they were both in deep silence.They were both lost in thought, trying to find a solution to the problem at hand.The source of this problem stemmed from the trust they had in people.Isn't it really sad that the people they trusted with a hundred million dollars' worth of goods betrayed them?Christina finally turned to her boss and said, "Miss Bolton, I can still vouch for Mr. Hill; he's very innocent in this matter. There's no way he would be involved in it or appear at the agency's office."Kate remained silent as Christina continued, "Moreover, the Hill Company is worth well beyond billions. Why would Mr. Hill involve himself in such a dirty game just for a mere hundred million dollars?"The amiable CEO of Bolton Group slowly sat upright and heaved a sigh. "You are right, Christie. But Mr. Hill said earlier that nobody can be trusted."Christina's eyes lit up slightly, and she asked, "Do you mean Mr. Hill has somet

After Christina finally caught up with them outside, Kate was surprised by her secretary's sudden change of mind.She had been enthusiastic about the idea just moments ago. Now, she had just changed her mind.Kate felt quite suspicious about the look on her face and was about to decline, thinking she must have some dumb tricks up her sleeves.However, before she could refuse, Roderick, who had been quiet since the argument started, spoke up."It's no trouble. If she wants to go along with us, then allow her."Roderick knew what was on Christina's mind at that moment, and he didn't want to break her heart by denying her the chance to witness the turnaround of what she had planned.Even though it didn't seem like a good idea to Kate, she couldn't disagree with Roderick. If he said there was no problem with it, then so be it.Turning away from Christina, Kate asked Roderick, "Mr. Holmes, is there anything you will need before we leave?"Roderick squinted slightly before answering, "We do

Linus felt a very intense heat from within at that moment as he saw Kate walk in. Not only was his forehead instantly covered with cold sweat, but his palms and feet were as well.'What has this lady come to do?!' he questioned inwardly, greatly shocked.He never expected Kate to visit their office anytime soon, especially not at this moment.What has this woman come to do?He was just about to fight his co-criminal for his share when Kate appeared at such a crucial time.Linus wasn't happy that this was really happening to him. There was no way he could continue to fight for his percentage in front of Kate. Given that, he quickly ended his discussion with his co-criminal.Roderick and Christina followed behind Kate as she walked in.Linus quickly hid his frustration, greeting Kate with a forced smile."Miss Bolton, you never informed me that you would be visiting, especially not this early." Linus rubbed his hands together restlessly.The more he felt the heat inside, the more cold s
