Chapter 452

Not far from the lobby of the R&S Group headquarters, Joyce

unexpectedly saw a familiar figure on the side of the road.

At first Joyce was not quite sure of it. She did look quite similar from

behind, but because she wore a mask, she would have to get closer to

be sure.

And it was indeed Lauren, and she just got out of jail.

She was wearing a black t-shirt, black trousers, and a black mask. It

was like she did not want to be seen by others, she deliberately hid half

of her body behind a large tree until she saw Joyce, and then she came

out from behind the tree.

Joyce guessed in her mind that Lauren should be looking for her.

So, she walked up quickly and greeted gently, "You're out?"

"The police got more evidence and reviewed my case and they

released me." The arrogance on her face before she went into jail was

now replaced by her calmness after going through all the vicissitudes of

the world.

“That's good." Joyce smiled lightly, "You clear your name so I can rest

easy. After all, this matter started because of me. I'm sorry for making

you suffer.”

Lauren looked emotional, and she took a deep breath, "Joyce, I came

here today to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Once I

treated you like that, and made things difficult for you, and you still

helped me regardless of the past. I heard that you also contributed a lot

to the capture of Thomas. I am really grateful to you. In the detention

center, you said you would help me, at that time I did not believe you,

and I did not expect really ..."

Joyce gently patted Lauren's shoulder and shook her head, "You don't

have to thank me. I can't really help much. You should thank Officer

Karl. He had tried so hard to find the truth so you were able to get out

of jail safe and sound.”

"Hmm." Lauren's eyes reddened slightly and her voice choked, "Joyce,

thank you."

"By the way, let's not talk about that. What are your plans?" Joyce

asked with concern.

Lauren's eyes lit up and her eyebrows rose with joy, “The group treated

me well. When they knew that I had been vindicated and released from

custody, Casey transferred me to the Riverport branch to open up new

business. For me, it couldn't be better. I can go to a new country, start a

new life, and forget everything that ever happened here that was

unpleasant.”

"Good! Casey is indeed quite thoughtful." Joyce was sincerely happy.

“I'm leaving tomorrow, so I came to say goodbye to you today.” Lauren

thought briefly, somewhat hesitant, and finally said, “There is another

matter I want to warn you of."

"Well, have a good trip." Joyce raised an eyebrow, waiting for her next

words.

"You must be careful of Charlotte, she is not simple." Lauren's

expression became serious. She came close to Joyce, lowered her

voice and said, "At the very beginning, I came to the automotive team,

and I wanted to get myself closer to Charlotte. After all, she is the

daughter of the Heath family, and the Heath family holds a lot of power

in their hands. Charlotte was hostile to you, so at the party, I tried to

give her the pills and let her get at you. Although she did not take the

pills on the surface at that time, but I thought about it, I only told her

about the pills. There was no way there was anyone else who knew

about it. Then I drank too much and I went to the toilet and came back

and couldn't find the pills. When I think about it now, she must have

secretly taken them away. She pretended not to want it, but actually

took it behind my back and then framed me for it. Although I have no

evidence, I happened to hear the prison guards mention that the

reason why my case was closed so quickly and I was thrown into the

detention center was that someone from above wanted to convict me

quickly. I think, besides Charlotte, who else would prefer that I be

sentenced as soon as possible to close the case? She's sinister and

vicious and unpredictable. You must be careful!"
