Semua Bab The Masked Symphony of Mrs. Luther: Bab 271 - Bab 280

Inside the quiet police car, the phone suddenly rang. Elizabeth and the officers were both startled by the ringtone.Elizabeth had never been in a situation like this before. Her face turned white as a sheet as she stammered, "Can I…Can I answer the call?"The policeman sneered. This haughty woman was panicking now. She had the right to pick up the phone because she had not committed a serious crime.Elizabeth felt relieved when the policeman nodded at her. She was perplexed when she noticed that the incoming call was from a strange number."Ms. Lisle?"When she answered the call, she noticed that it was an unfamiliar voice."Yes, speaking."Elizabeth instinctively moved closer to the window after she said that and covered the phone with her hand.The mysterious man said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're in a police car and in a desperate situation."Elizabeth clenched her teeth and remained silent in response."Don't worry, you're safe. You're currently under investigation and

Elizabeth never thought that Gwyneth would behave in such a haughty manner at the board meeting. She had a hard time keeping her cool because she lacked confidence. She questioned, "What do you mean?"Since Gwyneth had predicted her response, she sneered and said, "I mean, since you're attending the shareholders meeting, at the very least you should let me know about it in advance lest you are driven out of the room as a disruptor.""You…"Gwyneth waved at Wesley, signaling that the meeting would begin before Elizabeth could make a fuss.The rest of the directors watched the scene with conflicted emotions."As everyone is aware, our factory has a few projects that have been put on hold. These projects need to start right away."This was the reason for Gwyneth forgiving Callie. She intended to start these projects and cut costs.When Gwyneth said this, Elizabeth immediately objected, "I disagree."Gwyneth was confident that Elizabeth had zero interest in the project and was on

Gwyneth gripped her phone tightly, as if her confidence was suddenly shaken. She genuinely hated the feeling of being in the dark, or, more accurately, the feeling of being manipulated by others.She asked, "Who are you?""I told you, there are a few things I need to explain to you. I'll be waiting for you across the bus station at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.""If you don't identify yourself, I probably won't…"A reorder tone was heard from the phone before Gwyneth could finish. Irritated, she involuntarily clenched her teeth.When Liam noticed the abrupt shift in her expression, he felt a little worried. He asked as he inched closer, "What happened? What's wrong?"Gwyneth cast a glance at Liam and breathed a sigh of relief. She said softly, "That man claimed that he was my mother's relative. He wants to talk to me about something.""Are you sure he's lying?"Liam gave her another cup of tea to put Gwyneth at ease."Positive. Except for an uncle, no one from my mother's fam

When Gwyneth thought about the situation, she decided that the phrase "the pot calling the kettle black" was not the best metaphor to use.Craig had no idea that she had looked into Elizabeth. However, it made no difference because it made things more interesting as they progressed.With that thought in mind, Gwyneth straightened her back slightly.Craig interpreted her actions as if she were taking him seriously."Now that we've come to this, Mr. Baker, how can I be sure you're telling the truth?"And sure enough, a smile started to spread across Craig's face. He pulled out a photo from a folder and asked, "Does this count as proof?"Gwyneth took the photo. Her heart softened when she saw the person in the photo. It was a photo of her mother, with Craig standing next to her.Craig was a businessman from Utrela. He had decided to come back to Cloustan because the market there offered many advantages over those in other nations. He was being completely honest about his backgrou

Liam felt his heart skip a beat when Gwyneth said this, even though he knew it was an act.He felt extremely uncomfortable with the situation, and he wondered what it would be like if such an act were actually happening.Gwyneth gave him a thoughtful look before turning around and leaving. She had had enough of Elizabeth. She worried that she might not be able to control the urge to go up there and grab her.She was not aware that Liam had displayed the best self-control to remain in the room. God knows how desperately he wanted to get rid of Elizabeth and follow Gwyneth out of there.Craig was hiding outside the room. He turned around when he saw Gwyneth leaving furiously and caught up with her right away. He had forgotten that Elizabeth was his partner.He questioned, "You believe me now, right?"Gwyneth frowned when she saw Craig show up beside her all of a sudden. She kept her mouth shut and resisted her disgust toward him. This man persistently bugged her. Clearly, he wanted
