In the face of his interrogation, Rhea did not falter. Instead, she smiled and said, "Oh? Are you trying to draw attention to me? Mike, remember that we have different responsibilities. I am in charge of research and development, while you're in charge of logistics.
“What's more, isn't Lily an old friend of yours? Don't you know her son quite well? Don't you think you’ll be the best person to kidnap her son?"
"It's because I know her very well that it's easier for me to scare the snake if I come forward." Mike squinted at her as he studied the attractive face in front of him. However, the twinkle in her eyes couldn't hide the conniving person she was.
"Rhea, you said you're in research and development, but what have you developed? You've been using products we’ve developed through previous research. You know what the boss wants the most, yet it seems you're not succeeding. You're starting to make me doubt your ability."
"You…" Rhea's expression changed after being called out.
However, Mike ignored her and continued, "It's no wonder the boss is so anxious to get Lily to join the team. After all, she’s indeed much better than you in this aspect! That person is coming soon, and time is running out!
“If you can't do it, you should let everyone know. That way, we’ll devise a backup plan rather than wasting our time waiting for you."
At this point, Rhea was gritting her teeth in anger as she snapped lividly, "The boss can see my ability, and my achievements are known worldwide. You don't need to challenge me. If Lily is so amazing, bring her here! That way, we can compare who's better. I'm curious about how good she is. I'd like to know who's the best here. Is it me or her?!”
“I'm starting to worry that some people's barks are louder than their bites. That's why they always resorts to manipulation and murder."
"What did you say?!"
"You know what I'm talking about!"
