At Pearson Group, Charles was standing in front of Aubree with a frown as he said, “Ms. Pearson, there's someone overseas who's intentionally stopping us from looking into Roxanne's matter, especially the ones regarding the two children, so—”
Aubree cut him off before he could finish, “So you found nothing!”
Charles fell silent.
The atmosphere in the office was tense for a moment.
Aubree stared at him for a long time before she said through clenched teeth, “What use are you lot when you can't even find anything after so long?”
Before Charles could respond to her, she snarled, “Get lost!”
Charles instantly turned to leave.
Aubree huffed in anger as she watched the office door close.
It had been days since Lucian himself had told her that he wanted to break off the engagement, yet she still had not gotten anything to blackmail Roxanne with.
If Lucian spreads the news about us breaking off our engagement, it's highly likely that b*tch is going to be the future Mrs. Farwell. That b*tch was the one who stole my spot six years ago, and six years later, she's still haunting me! I've already been embarrassed by how Lucian has broken off our engagement. If the same person steals Lucian from me again, others are definitely going to see me as a laughingstock! No! No matter what, I'm not going to let Roxanne become Mrs. Farwell.
After sitting in her office for some time, Aubree narrowed her eyes and called Sonya.
Sonya had just finished her breakfast. When she received a call from Aubree, she could not help but think about the words she had said a few days ago, and guilt washed over her.
