Chapter 482

Over at Nash’s side, Jupiter decided to summon Kai for interrogation

at the station.

Angelica expressed her concerns, “Isn’t Kai Walter Watson’s

grandson? Is it appropriate to just take him in like that?”

Jupiter replied indifferently, “Even the emperor is subject to the same laws as the common people. It doesn’t matter that he’s Walter’s grandson. Even if he was the governor’s grandson, we’d still

interrogate him as necessary…”

Angelica fell silent.

It was not that she feared power.

It was because Walter was connected to several charity foundations and political consultative conferences.

Offending Walter could make things difficult for her and Chief Holt,、

especially since a few words from Walter to Chief Zink could ruin

their future.

Nash noticed Angelica’s apprehension and said with a smile, “Let’s

wait until the chip is fixed. Right now, it’s just our speculation. It’s

indeed not good to arrest someone without sufficient evidence.”

Jupiter corrected him, “It’s not an arrest, just a summoning.”

He then compromised, nodding. “Let’s wait for the recording to be restored, then. It’s not urgent.”

The phone on the desk rang.

Lauren excused herself with a smile. “Please excuse me. I need to

take this call.”

Jupiter picked up his briefcase from the sofa, stood up, and said, ” Well, we won’t bother you any longer. Once the chip is fixed, you can let me know. I’ll have someone come over to make a copy.”

Nash stood up and shook hands with Jupiter. “Alright. Thank you for

your trouble.”

He and Hera accompanied Jupiter and Angelica to the elevator.

Smiling, Jupiter said, “No need to see us out. I’m not worthy of that.”

Hera was the company’s CEO.

Meanwhile, Nash’s status was even more daunting.

The two of them sending him off made him feel uneasy.

Nash laughed heartily. “Alright, we won’t be sending you any farther,

then.”

“Goodbye!”

Angelica waved to Hera, then closed the elevator doors.

As the elevator descended, Angelica asked in a low voice, “Chief Holt, do you think it was Kai who did it?”

Jupiter shook his head. “Mr. Calcraft knows Kai better than we do. From his attitude just now, it seems unlikely he suspects Kai… but all

the evidence currently points to him.”

Angelica mused, “You mean someone wants to frame Kai Watson?

Jupiter gave a meaningful smile. “The world of these wealthy people is truly chaotic!”

Angelica bit her lip, then asked hesitantly, “Should we tell him?”

Kai’s status was not ordinary. Although he was being sanctioned by Walter now, if something were to happen to Kai, Walter would be

furious. It could potentially destabilize Jonford’s entire business

world.

Jupiter gave a wry smile. “The problem is we have no leads right now… Besides, Kai isn’t a fool. He must know someone is framing him after Hera’s phone call.”

Angelica said dejectedly, “I hope that chip can be repaired soon!”

Hera was busy dealing with company matters for her mother.

Nash, on the other hand, began to enjoy some leisure time.

“Hera, I’m going to the other branch for a bit. Later, the vice president from Innovate Collective is coming over. Can you receive their group

for me?”

Lauren left some documents on the desk.

Hera picked up the files and glanced at them. “Isn’t Innovate Collective also a chip company? What do they want with Baroque ?”

Lauren replied with a smile, “Why else would a competitor come to

us? They want us to do contract manufacturing.”

Hera pouted. “Contract manufacturing has such low profits. Why are

you still accepting these kinds of orders?”

Lauren gave a helpless smile. “We earn where we can. When we had no business, we couldn’t even find contract manufacturing work.”

After speaking, she looked apologetically at Nash. “Nashy… sorry for taking up your and Hera’s time today.”

Nash had just returned, and she had planned to let him and Hera rest for a few days, but the company’s issues were relentless.

Nash smiled broadly. “Don’t say that. Hera and I are still spending time together, aren’t we?”

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Lauren hurried away.

About ten minutes later, the secretary came in and said, “Ms. Lewis, the people from Innovate Collective are here.”
