Chapter 868
Arianna only shook her head. She did not seem relieved-instead, countless thoughts ran through her head. "No, no, something isn’t right."
If Damian had suddenly appeared and told the police someone had framed him, that would make more sense. No one knew better than
Arianna that Damian thought someone had framed him, and according to his character, he could not keep something to himself for such a
long time.
Damian had disappeared for some time and reappeared just to surrender to the police. All this was so unusual. Arianna knew something was
amiss when this bizarre incident happened. She feared it would ruin her plans.

responsible for the project, so it's only normal for him to take responsibility. Maybe you’re just overthinking, Ms. Tanner."
"What do you know!" She reprimanded, "If it were that simple, why would I have gone through so much
hassle to frame him? Where's Nathaniel?”
"Mr. Hall has called in sick these past few days, so he's not in the office now."
"Fine. You can leave. Make sure to pay attention to information released by the police. Contact me as
soon as you have more information," Arianna instructed.
"Yes, Ms. Tanner."
Arianna felt restless. There was something wrong, and she could feel it, but she could not tell what it
was. Damian was not an intelligent guy and would not be able to think of such a detailed plan. Judging
from his rash personality, he would not have confessed so honestly to the police if he thought someone
had framed him.
After a moment of thought, Arianna took her phone and called Joseph," Dad?"
"Are you happy now?" Joseph was silent for a moment before he asked mockingly.
Arianna chose to remain silent.
"Since your brother has to go to prison, you're quite happy, aren't you? Congratulations, President

her now.
She was so busy recently that she had failed to notice what was happening around her. She did not care about her father's whereabouts as
well. She wanted to ask where he had been, but Joseph did not want anything to do with her. Judging from his tone, Arianna was confident
her father had not helped Damian. She could hear he was still upset.
'Does this mean even dad doesn’t know why Damian was doing this?* Arianna thought.
Immediately after calling her father, she called Nathaniel. The phone rang for some time before someone finally answered it. His voice
sounded hoarse and nasally, "Hello?"
"I heard you haven’t been at the office for a few days. Do you know that a lot has been going on? Do you still want that promotion or not?"
Arianna said in annoyance.
"I'm sick, and I've already handed in my sick leave. You can't just make me work when I'm still unwell," Nathaniel sniffed and said while
blowing his nose into a piece of tissue.
