StarNovelCally arrived soon after. When she saw me, she beca little emotional. "Where have you been, Wanda? Why
haven't | been able to get a hold of you? President Fredericks toldthat something had happened to you in
Limbia. I was worried sick."
| did not know what to say. | paused for a moment before responding to her, "It's kind of complicated. I'll tell you
the details next time. What happened here?"
Cally had a complicated look on her face." When the research institute was broken into, the things that were
stolen were stashed away underground. When | found out, | was shocked. We've been working here for so long,
yet no one had ever realized that the institute had a basement." This proved that my previous guess was correct.
| glanced over at Theo. | had previously noticed that the institute did not have a lot of structures and mentioned
it to Theo. | asked him to get someone to take a look, but I did not know if he did. "Let's take a look," Theo said.
We headed into the research institute. Elena said to the police officer, "This is President Grant of Grant
Corporation. He's here to confirm the equipment and products that were taken from the institute." "We need the
person-in-charge of both companies to be present before we can enter."

Cally and | glanced at each other and said," We work for Fredericks Corporations. We're in charge of this project."
Ms. Cally showed him her permit.
The officer did not seem to think there was anything out of place and let us in. The equipment in the first-floor
lobby remained the same. Once we walked out of the lobby and cto the back, we found that the equipment
had been arranged neatly in a corner.
A door was facing us. It was not big and only seemed to be three feet tall and five feet wide.
"This door is opened by skind of mechanism. Can you believe that?" Cally asked mockingly.
| did not believe it. These kinds of doors only seemed to exist in TV shows and movies.
"When was this installed? Was it installed while the institute was being built?" | asked, puzzled.
No one knew the answer.
We then followed Elena through the door. Inside was a long and dark corridor. After walking about 50 yards, a
wide space was revealed. There, in that space, was all the equipment and products that were missing.
"I knew something was off. There was no way that so many things could be shipped off so quickly and quietly.
Unless there was a whole bunch of people, it seemed unrealistic. They would've been found out. It definitely
makes more sense that the items were moved here," Elena said dryly.
Then, she looked at Lally and said in a mocking tone, "You people from Fredericks Corporations sure are sly. Only
you guys could cup with such a cunning plan. No wonder problems kept arising with this project. You guys
were plotting behind our backs all along!"
Cally frowned. She did not expect Fredericks Corporations to do something like this either. She had no way of
refuting.

After all, the truth was displayed before their eyes. Fredericks Corporations was the bad guy here.
| thought about it and said, "Looking at the items here, it seems like Jordan was the one who sold off sof the
smaller products to that company overseas. The big ones are harder to move, so he just left them here."
Elena looked atwith a disdainful look on her face. "Quit yapping. Aren't you just pointing out the obvious?"
| was not too bothered by her mockery. | turned and asked Theo, "How are you planning to handle this?"
Theo narrowed his eyes. "We'll handle this justly. Contact the reporters and expose Fredericks Corporations’
shady ways. Also, contact a lawyer to file a lawsuit against them."
His expression was cold and stern. It was clear that they had struck a nerve.
This was an evident disrespect of Grant Corporation. There was no way Theo would stand for it.
Cally started panicking and said in a hurry, "Calm down, President Grant. President Fredericks is currently
handling smatters and is unable to return. Please give him a chance to explain himself. Perhaps he isn'tthe «
one behind this."
