“What is it?” Charmine frowned. Why were her men overreacting these days?
Kay blurted, “You won’t believe who Tiffany slept with! The person who walked into her room was Julian’s personal assistant, Oliver!” 1
Charmine squinted. Oliver?
An interesting piece of news, indeed. She sent the text to Julian, yet Julian sent Oliver over instead? Furthermore, Tiffany wanted to sleep with Anthony, but ended up sleeping with Oliver instead?
Kay asked, “Do you want me to expose this matter? Or do we let Julian go there himself?” If news about this broke out, Tiffany’s reputation would be totally screwed!
“No need, we’ll just sit back and watch. What’s the fun of killing her so easily?” Her red lips curled up mockingly, the epitome of beautiful malice.
A thought then occurred to Charmine as she glanced at Anthony and walked back to her room. After shutting the door, she asked, “How’s the task I gave you earlier?” “Hmm… I went to have a check on the Walker family right away. They’ve raked up quite the underground image in Burlington for at least a hundred years. They made profits from assassinations, mercenaries, and the likes. They only have staff at the bottom level of the society collecting debts and fighting. Overall, they make profits from taking tasks. According t o my findings, it’s true that Tiffany had been in touch with the Walker five years ago,” Kay reported. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Charmine’s eyes darkened. Since she knew it was the Walkers, it would be much easier. Still, Kay was not done yet. “Though according to statistics, the Walkers have around ten thousand followers in
Burlington. I’ve no problem screwing with them, but I can’t guarantee that I can capture every single one of them, since most of them are not at their base most of the time.”
Charmine frowned. If he could not guarantee a 100 percent capture of the Walkers, then it would not be possible to run a complete investigation. They did not even know which department of the Walkers Tiffany had ‘visited’ back then.
Kay added, “If Boss Jordan wants to get hold of everyone, we’ll have to take action during their annual dinner, which would be happening by the end of the year.”
The Walkers would host an annual dinner by the end of every year, yet it was only June. Thinking of the annual dinner, a glint appeared in her eyes.
“Alright, I’ll arrange something. Don’t do anything for now, and wait for my instructions.” After she hung up, she looked up at the sky, seemingly in a deep thought.
She had a task that night. Since they found out it was the Walkers, she might as well drop by their base later!
Meanwhile…
Tiffany woke up with anticipation, only to find out that the man laying beside her was Oliver!
“Argh!” She let out an ear-piercing shriek as she shot up straight and covered herself with the blanket.
Oliver was woken up by her scream, and as he assessed the situation he was in, his pupils dilated.
What happened? He was sent by Julian to pick up Tiffany, so how did he end up sleeping with her? Tiffany was his boss’ woman! How could he sleep with her?
“Why is it you?!” Tiffany growled through gritted teeth. “When did you come in? What’re you doing here?!”
“Ms. Jordan, I’m sorry, I… I don’t know what happened either! Julian sent me here to pick you up, but when I entered the room, I…” he paused, too afraid to continue his sentence.
Tiffany clenched her fists tightly. Was it the perfume’s effect? Was it that Oliver came in to look for her but was poisoned by the scent? She could have sworn it was Anthony!
No, the label on the perfume did state that the scent could cause hallucination, and that included mistaking a person for someone else. Had she been poisoned at that time and mistaken him for Anthony then?
In other words, Anthony never came in. It was Oliver all along, and Oliver was the man she slept with!
She slept with an assistant! As he noted the change in her look, Oliver collapsed on the ground and begged on his knees.
