Chapter 67

Pearl talked slowly, “If I’m not mistaken, you must be wondering why the colleagues you bribed are not

opposing Mister Richard now, aren’t you, Mister Brandon?”

Brandon’s expression changed. “What are you insinuating, Miss Pearl?”

With a sneer, Pearl responded with a question, “Don’t you know what I meant, Mister Brandon?”

“Watch your tongue!” Brandon retorted in panic.

“Let’s take a look at this evidence to see if I’m telling the truth or not.” Pearl proceeded to extract

documents and photos from a folder and forcefully scattered them across the table.

As the documents fell, everyone could clearly see the photos of Brandon going in and out of the

finance department, alongside details of his embezzlement.

“Is there anything else you want to say, Mister Brandon?”

Blood drained out of Brandon’s face while looking at the evidence, growing more terrified.

“No, you made this up! I would never harm the company. Don’t slander me!”

Suddenly, Brandon yelled agitatedly as if he had realized something. “You guys must have staged this

to frame me and force me out of the company. You’ll pay for this!”

However, Pearl paid no heed to his resistance and issued a final verdict, looking up at him. “If you have

nothing else to say, Mister Brandon, you can discuss it with the police officers.”

She then casually took her seat, a satisfied smile gracing her face.

At the mention of the police, Brandon ran away but was arrested at the door by the police officers who

had arrived in time.

“I won’t let you get away with this!” Brandon warned them before being led away.

Once he was gone, Richard made a few remarks and ended the meeting, his gaze fixed on Pearl.

“I doubt it’ll be that simple.”

“How so?” Pearl was grinning, clearly in high spirits after eliminating that black sheep. Her voice

sounded livelier.

“It’s not that easy to beat Brandon,” Richard explained slowly after a brief pause.

Pearl’s smile faded as she contemplated his words. “What are you suggesting?”

“I think he may have a chance to free himself.”

His guess made her frown. “You’re saying he’ll come after us again? Didn’t the cops arrest him just

now?”

Richard quietly recalled the look Brandon had given him before departing.

“Maybe he has another trick up his sleeves.”

out, Richard was right. The next day, they received news that Brandon had been released, his name

cleared of any

As it turned ou charges.

Deeply troubled, Pearl sat in Richard’s office. “You were right. He did have a backup plan.”

“He’s now an executive at Lawson Enterprises.”

“I’m certain he leveraged our internal information to strike a deal with Lawson Enterprises.” Pearl gritted

her teeth in frustration. “I should have beat him up until he could no longer do anything dirty.”

Richard pressed his lips together, his expression grave. “No, it wouldn’t have made a difference. No

matter where he goes, he’ll remain a threat, especially since he possesses sensitive information about

our company. He’s likely to share it with Lawson Enterprises. This is very bad for us.”

“For example…” Even though Pearl was hesitant, both she and Richard were well aware of the

situation they now faced.
