Charity took the menu and read through it calmly. She answered Chester's question in the meantime. "Some things you found out might just be things that I'm willing to let other people see."
"Is that so?" Chester leaned against the chair. He scrutinized her. "Let me think. When did Reborn appear on Wall Street for the first time? Was it four or five years ago? How old are you? You're 24 years old this year. Could you possibly have gone to Wall Street when you were 19 years old? There's no record of you even going overseas at that time. You could be a genius, but based on your environment since you were born, you have no knowledge of finance at all. Your studies weren’t on finance, and your parents were just ordinary employees." He paused for a moment. His gaze focused on the face of the woman opposite him, which had light and shadows on it because of the crystal chandelier above them.
His gaze gradually turned as deep as a winter pond.
"It could be that you're not the real Reborn. You're just impersonating her, or you're not the true Eliza. You're an imposter taking Eliza’s place."
Chester’s fingers tapped the surface of the table. "If my guess isn’t wrong, you were the one who exposed Heather and Stuart's scandal, right? Shedrick and I have suspected that all the pictures and text were leaked by someone among the company's internal personnel. However, the person that I suspected the least was you."
Charity raised her eyebrows. She did not deny it and simply shrugged. "Continue."
"Actually, it's not hard to think about it.
You were in the company for a few years and often attended the company's events. You had a good relationship with Hailey too. It's not hard for you to obtain those things."
Chester squinted his eyes. "After that, you collaborated with Ferra Film Group and became its major shareholder. Then, you acquired a few video and film companies to drive Felix Media into a corner. You also used the dirt you had on a few artists of the company to force them to switch companies, slowly turning Felix Media into an empty shell. You're truly amazing."
"Thank you for the compliment." Charity raised her head and said, "Can we order dinner? I’m a little hungry.”
"Go ahead. I'm treating. You can order whatever you want." Chester took out a packet of cigarettes. "Do you mind if I smoke?"
