Kate was sitting on the driver's side of her car, driving off. Beside her was Roderick, who sat quietly, gazing in a direction.

Kate had to drive all by herself because she had visited the Eclipse Hotel alone. Not even the security personnel did she bring along for protection.

This was because she just wanted to have her privacy and be free.

As the car drove off, Kate stole a glance at the quiet Roderick. Even though she couldn't tell what was running through his mind, she was very sure he had some thoughts going on.

Given his quietness and the expression on his face, Kate was able to decode this.

Just as Kate was wondering what thought could be running through his mind, she decided on something quickly and slowed down the car, calling for Roderick's attention.

"Mr. Holmes, did I offend you by ordering the Big Four to kneel before you?"

Kate could only think of two ways in which she might have offended Roderick. Firstly, disclosing the miracle doctor's identity without his approval. A

    "Hehe! No, sir! No problem with that! I was just thinking I would go and handle them once I leave here."Rex quickly forced a smile as he answered. He was trying his best to keep the fear gathering in his mind hidden from the public’s view."You have been useless from the start; you shouldn’t be bothered with the assignment being in your care any longer," Murray said plainly, totally dismissing Rex.Turning to Frey and his colleagues, they were briefed about the latest report.They were surprised to learn that 75 percent of the goods were of really good quality.Just then, Murray asked them, "So, how do the 15 percent fake goods get here? Mr. Hill's proof has proven him innocent. For that reason, you are the only suspects on the ground."Upon hearing this, Frey’s heart sank in his stomach.He had said yesterday that whatever goods they found in their container were what they got from Alex.Then, if Alex had been proven innocent now, there’s no one else who would be held responsible fo

    A few moments after the bodyguards left, a very fat, elderly man was seen running towards Murray, who was trying to maintain calmness despite the rage presently consuming him.Despite the heaviness of the approaching man’s body, he didn’t know how he was able to carry himself, but he ran with all his might and fell before Murray.This man was none other than Rex Oaklam.The loud thud echoed through the hall as Rex threw himself on the floor before Murray and began to plead. Everyone present was shocked by the scene.“Forgive me, Mr. Hunk! I know the punishment for my offense, but please forgive me, sir.”Rex was close to bursting into tears at this moment. All eyes were on him.Of course, he knew the gravity of his offense in leaving a serious business matter for a junior staff member to handle.He was in his office when news reached him that the head of the organization was looking for him. After learning the full details of why Murray was looking for him, he dared not waste another

    Linus didn't want to believe that they were really coming in their direction.But the closer they walked, the more his doubt proved useless. It was clear they weren’t heading anywhere else but towards them.At that moment, Linus forced himself to accept the reality. Then, he quickly scrambled forward to welcome Murray.He believed that if he could make a good first impression at his first meeting with the head of their organization, it would not only save him trouble that day but also benefit him in the future."Mr. Hunk! It's so good to see you, sir. My name is Linus..." He hadn’t finished his introduction when Murray waved a hand to stop him.Murray was a man who never had time for unnecessary introductions. He believed people who were always eager to introduce themselves where and when it wasn’t needed were nothing but hypocrites.He saw it as an attempt to cover up one's mistakes before they got exposed.Leaving Linus behind, Murray walked forward, stopped before Alex and the othe

    For the third time in a row, Alex had called Rex Oakham, but he wasn't picking up.Alex couldn't understand why Rex was unable to answer his call. It had never happened before that he had to call him repeatedly without anyone answering.Not even at this crucial time, when he needed him, did he expect this to happen.Seeing Alex's face frown as he continued trying to reach Rex, a secret gentle smile appeared on Linus's face, as he knew Rex wouldn't answer the call.That had been one of their initial plans. Linus and Rex had agreed that if Alex had to call Rex again after they had concluded everything, it meant something had gone wrong.And for that, Rex shouldn't answer the call. By then, when Alex and the others found out there was no other option for them, they wouldn't be able to do anything else but leave."Mr. Hill, for Mr. Oakham not to be able to answer his call, he must be in an important meeting," Linus said to Alex, hiding the smile on his face."Is that so?" Alex wasn't real

    Linus's face instantly frowned. He couldn't understand how these people seemed to be so stubborn.They were lucky to recover 75 percent of their goods, but were they really supposed to be so stubborn about the missing 15 percent?Could they not be content with the 75 percent they managed to regain?Linus hated Christina and her boss's attitude at this moment.He already had a plan for the missing 15 percent of goods. He wanted to keep it all for himself and fool his co-conspirator into believing that the Bolton Group had finally recovered their goods after using a brilliant idea to fact-check them.Linus's heart was strong enough to pull this trick on his co-conspirator. After all, he was the one in charge of the whole operation. Whatever came or went, he was the only one present who saw everything.His co-conspirator had shown his true colors. For that reason, Linus didn't mind outsmarting him as well. As it turned out, the game they were playing favored the smartest between the two

    What a question!Linus’s face frowned slightly as he was confused about what to say in reply.Finally, something struck his mind, and he let it out with a sheepish smile."I must say, Miss Bolton, I'm quite surprised to see the quality materials, too. This must have been a mistake by the workers who were assigned to inspect the goods. They must have gone through them in haste, which resulted in omitting these quality items."Even though Linus’s response didn’t sound reasonable to Kate, she didn’t bother to argue with him over it.If they didn’t have workers who could reasonably inspect goods before concluding, then what made them a quality control agency?Roderick chuckled slightly as his suspicions about Linus skyrocketed. He had been noticing how restless Linus had become a few minutes ago but had chosen to remain quiet and continue observing.Given Linus’s response, Kate nodded slowly and waved her hand. Then she said to the workers running the check, "You can continue with the ins
