Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 858

Sitting in the meeting room, Brandon kept silent as his eyes darkened.

The shareholders present wondered why his face had suddenly seemed to drop.

They exchanged glances with one other and held their collective breath.

"The meeting is adjourned." Brandon squeezed his eyes shut. He had heard a man's voice on the phone with Janet just now.

And when Brandon tried to call Janet again immediately after, he found that he couldn't get through to her.

He should never have let her go to the show. Damn it. Brandon silently cursed and shut off his phone.

Sean sensed that something was wrong with Brandon. He hadn't intended to walk into the meeting uninvited, but he had a very important matter to report, and it couldn't be delayed. Sean could only push the door open and enter, despite the anguished look in Brandon's eyes.

"What's going on?" Brandon cast a harsh glance at Sean.

Swearing to himself, Sean turned on a wry smile and said, "Sir, Jorge says he wants to see you."

Rubbing his eyebrows, Brandon asked, "Is Jorge finally ready to crack? Call Frank and we'll go see him together."

As it so happened, Frank hadn't left yet. Maybe he could find something out about this mysterious pharmacist behind Jorge.

In the interrogation room of the Barnes Police Department...

Jorge's cheeks were sunken and he looked haggard.

"I said I wouldn't talk to anyone but Brandon Larson." Jorge lowered his head, looked away and said, "I won't say anything else as long as anyone else is present."

Through the interrogation room's one-way mirror, Frank and Brandon could clearly see the arrogant look plastered on Jorge's face.

"We have been kind enough to come, and he dares to make demands?" Frank sneered, "I've never seen such an arrogant criminal."

After considering the situation for a few seconds, Brandon said, "I'll speak to him."

Frank frowned and then said to him, "Be careful. Jorge might have come into contact with that pharmacist. He might have other poisons concealed on him. I'll be outside. If at point you feel like you're in danger, leave the room immediately."

"I know what I'm doing." Brandon marched into the interrogation room alone. He wanted to see Jorge and hear what he had to say.

"I knew you'd come." Jorge laughed.

Taking a seat across from Jorge, Brandon asked slowly, "Who gave you the poison?"

"You want to know? Then bring that bitch, Elizabeth, here!" Jorge sneered, "Bring Elizabeth here and I'll tell you right away."

Brandon gave him a cold smile in return.

He stood up, stuck out his arm, and grabbed Jorge roughly by the neck.

Being handcuffed, Jorge couldn't fight back and so was forced to raise his head. When he met Brandon's eyes, he said in a trembling voice, "You... What do you want to do?"
