Chapter 481

Lauren put down her phone and picked up a plastic bag. She called out to her secretary, “Red, take the chip to the tech department!”

“Sure thing, Ms. Mare!”

The secretary stepped forward quickly, took the plastic bag, and left

in a hurry.

Hera poured a cup of water for Nash before sitting down next to him.

Jupiter and Angelica stopped their conversation, took out a few documents from nearby folders, and handed them to Nash. “We’ve already found the identity information of the suspect from last night…

“He used to be associated with the Green Bamboo Association before he turned 20, and then he worked as a mercenary overseas for a few years before returning to the country three years ago. He had been following Kai… until Kai was sanctioned by the Watasons and

disappeared.”

Angelica stared at Nash with deep intensity and said, “So, we suspect

that the mastermind behind this may be Kai!”

Nash casually lifted his tea cup and took a sip.

Kai Watson!

He had ruled out this person, but not entirely.

Kai had been sanctioned by Walter because of him, and Kai held deep

resentment toward him. If he were seeking revenge, it would not be

as simple as burning down Baroque’s factory.

However, the suspect who appeared at the scene was one of Kai’s henchmen, which heightened his suspicions toward Kai.

Hera gritted her teeth. “It must be Helena’s idea… I’ll call her right now and interrogate her!”

She took out her phone and dialed Helena’s number.

Meanwhile, Helena saw Hera’s call and immediately rejected it.

Hera exclaimed angrily, “She’s avoiding my calls. She’s obviously feeling guilty!”

If there was someone who did not want to see Baroque’s grand plan

succeed the most, it would probably be Helena.

Moreover, who else knew about the procurement of those

components outside the company?

Just as Hera was about to point the finger squarely at Helena, Helena surprisingly answered the call.

“Do you need something?” Helena asked coldly.

“Helena Lewis, you really haven’t changed a bit!”

She no longer felt timid as she used to when facing Helena nowadays.

Helena sneered. “You don’t actually think I had anything to do with it,

do you?”

Hera chuckled angrily. “Who else could it be? Last night, Mr. Jacobs’ house caught fire, and the arsonist is one of Kai’s henchmen. There

were five of them inside! You can all look forward to legal

the phone.

There was nothing going on in the company, so Helena did not go to

work.

Kai had not left the house for several days, so Helena forced him to go downstairs to buy breakfast.

The sound of the fingerprint door lock unlocking came from outside.

Kai came in with a takeaway breakfast, sporting some bruises around his eyes and on his face.

Helena furrowed her brows and asked, “You got into another fight?”

He had been beaten up yesterday when collecting debts, and now he

got into trouble while buying breakfast.

Kai’s expression darkened as he said, “One day, I’ll make these

commoners pay a heavy price!”

Helena chuckled at Kai’s words. “Don’t forget, you’re not even a

commoner now. You’re an inmate in this place at best!”

Kai glanced at Helena coldly. “Are you enjoying seeing my

misfortune?”

Helena crossed her arms and said with a smirk, “What, do you think

you’re still the high and mighty son of the Watson family?”.

Kai remained silent, placed the takeaway breakfast on the coffee

table, and grabbed a can of beer from the fridge.

“Hera just called me. She suspects that the fire at Baroque was our

doing!”

Helena narrowed her eyes and looked at Kai’s profile.

Kai’s expression remained numb as he continued to drink.

Seeing that Kai did not respond, Helena continued to ask, “Last night, there was a fire at Jade Lakeside Gardens. The head of Baroque’s maintenance department and his family were all burned to death. They caught a suspect at the scene, and it’s said that he’s one of your

henchmen.”

Kai’s hand that was holding the beer can twitched slightly.

He turned to stare at Helena.

Helena hastily added, “I know it wasn’t you. If you were planning on taking revenge, this fire wouldn’t have happened at Jade Lakeside

Gardens!”

Kai crumpled the can in his hand, his face darkening. “I know who did

it!”
