Chapter 1530
When Mike left the office, he glanced over his shoulder and saw that Rhea was not leaving. He could
not say much because the masked man said nothing. Feeling the inside of his mouth with the tip of his
tongue, a bloody taste assaulted his throat as he left quietly.
After he was gone, Rhea took a step forward. "Sir, are you truly going to let him off just like that? You
know Mike is disloyal and he's not doing this for the organization..." "If he's not, what about you?"
Staring at her coldly, there was mistrust in his eyes.
Rhea pursed her lips. "At least I share the same goal and direction with you, sir. My mind is fully on the
research. It's a great research project that could change the world, and I would be responsible for its
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtresult. Like you, I look forward to it!" "Oh, yeah?" Letting out a laugh, he suddenly asked, 'Then have
you found that thing inside your pen holder?"
Stunned, Rhea did not expect him to know about it as it was a personal matter. But after giving it some
thought, she realized that she should not be shocked. She made a scene at the Rollins' house, and
Anastasia was hospitalized after falling down the stairs. As the man before her knew about almost
everything, he could not possibly be ignorant of it.
"I found it." She lowered her head and answered.
"Found it?" The man was skeptical. "Did you truly find it, or were you just saying something nice to fool
me?" "I wouldn't dare!" The usually arrogant Rhea kept her head low and lowered her voice to explain,
"Actually the thing inside the pen holder was not lost." "Oh?" Raising his brow, the man seemed to be
waiting for her explanation.
"I've kept it well and naturally would not lose it. As Anastasia happened to visit my house recently, I
wanted to seize the opportunity to search her house. I just didn't expect..."
She didn't expect Anastasia to fall down the stairs and Cameron to coincidentally return and disrupt her
plan.
She hardly hung out with Anastasia. If she went over to search, she would raise suspicion. Therefore, it
was better to do it in the name of having lost something.
She was surprised when Anastasia, who is usually gentle, tried hard to stop her from searching the
house. When Cameron returned, she had no choice but to stop.
It was now more difficult to visit their home after what she had done.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Oh..." The man clearly did not believe her words. "Your family is so close to the Rollins. Do you have
to go through so much trouble to search for anything?" "I'm actually on bad terms with Anastasia, and I
feel she’s started to suspect that I have something to do with the toxins inside her body. So I could only
take a preemptive step and go over in the name of finding something I’ve lost." 'You’re on bad terms
with Anastasia, but your parents' relationship with her seems good. Over the years, your mom has
visited the house often for her sake, hasn't she?" The man said mockingly and paced before her.
He was short, and Rhea was standing, so he looked like a child moving about before her. His husky
voice in a mocking tone was so eerie that one would feel a chill down their spine.
"She... they have nothing to do with me!" Looking away, Rhea said coldly.
"Did you say so because you don't want to drag your mother into this? Hmm?" The man suddenly
halted in his path and stood before her with both hands behind him. Looking up at her, he curled his
lips slightly. 'You're worried for her? Hmm?" "I'm not!" Rhea said stubbornly. "All they care about is
Anastasia, whom they treat as their daughter, and she has always been their favorite. I don't care about
them."
