Chapter 60

Zarek smiled coldly []

His beautiful eyes were so deep they seemed unfathomable. “Are you really this confident I won’t find her?“]

Victor sat back down, his voice filled with indignation “When you’re determined to find fault, any excuse will do. If you want to use this as an opportunity to dismiss me, Mr. Weasley, just say so directly. There’s no need for these baseless. accusations!]

Tm asking you about Miss Paige’s whereabouts![]

The sound of a fist slamming the table suddenly echoed through the room

Zarek’s mood shifted with alarming speed–one moment inscrutably calm, the next with the sharpness of an unsheathed blade[]

Victor’s pupils dilated in shock.]

But he quickly regained his composure, maintaining a “truth fears no fire” demeanor as he answered defiantly, I don’t know where Miss Paige is! If you insist on connecting me to this, then produce your evidence![]

His words were forceful and uncompromising.

Zarek reined in his anger, his expression turning glacial.]

His heart grew cold as well.[]

His deliberate aggressive questioning was meant to observe Victor’s instinctive reactions. Unlike Mateus, Victor showed no panic whatsoever. Particularly when asked if he was confident Adeline wouldn’t be found, he had even displayed a hint of satisfaction and relief.]]

Had she really disappeared?…]]

His palm closed into a fist.[]

I have what some might call a bad habit–I circle the wagons. Anyone who touches my people will suffer a fate worse than death, evidence or not. Mr. Ferreira clearly can’t wait to experience this firsthand.

Victor swallowed hard as he met Zarek’s gaze–cold and mechanical, as if looking at a corpse.[]

Then he reassured himself: What was there to fear? Mateus was the one who locked her up. If she jumped out a window to her death, that was her choice! What did it have to do with him?]

“Mr. Weasley, I understand your concern over Miss Paige’s disappearance. We’re all concerned. If you need someone to vent your frustration on, and you’ve chosen Mateus and me, we won’t complain.”

1 only ask that you don’t take out your anger on the others They’ve done nothing wrong.

“We’ve all given our all to this company. Treating loyal employees this way over some pretty face will only demoralize everyone.

As he spoke, tears welled in his eyes.[]

Those in the conference room who weren’t involved began to sympathize with his words, silently resenting Zarek

Victor was deliberately stirring up emotions, especially Olivia’s.[]

Sure enough, Olivia’s expression visibly darkened with resentment.[]

Zarek sal enveloped in a deadly cold aura.[]

A this moment, Rex, who had stepped out to take a call, returned with an excited expression. He hurried to Zarek’s side and whispered, “Mateus confessed She’s being held at his family’s old house

Tristar, will go there. Take some people and search within a five kilometer radius around the house. T

“But the house is by the sea“]

Zareks teert tightened. The cold feeling intensified, seeping into his marrow.

Disposing of a body at sex would indeed make it nearly impossible to find []

Seeing no rebel in his expression, only increasing gravity, Rex had a terrible suspicion []

We Think further or ask questions, he quickly left the conference room, following Zarek’s instructions to organize a search within a five kilometer radhus of the house]

The room watched their quiet exchange and Kex’s hasty departure with curious glances:[]

Had they found her?]

Those waived in the kaapping broke to a bold sweat agam[]

“That’s ridiculous. I’m the general manager of this branch Why should I concern myself with a secretary who’s been employed for less than three days?” Olivia’s words were prickly with hurt “But you, the CEO of an entire corporation, creating such a commotion over a secretary–anyone would think your wife had gone missing!]

Arthur questioned him as well, and Victor responded with exaggerated respect, his words dripping with tragic nobility.[]

Seeing the situation spiral Olivia began to realize she was being manipulated, but it was too late to salvage things for Zarek.[]

Zarek, what do you have to say?” Arthur gave his son the final opportunity to explain

His voice was calm as water, yet cuts

t straight to the heart of the matter.

He had stripped away their disguises, revealing their true nature.[]

Olivia’s face fluctuated between red and purple.[]

She protested. You’re the one who’s lost perspective over a woman! You’re mixing personal and professional matters! Why are you protecting her? Why do you care about her? Have you fallen for her? She has a husband![]

Olivia!

Zarek’s sharp rebuke cut through the air.[]

His eyes were filled with disappointment. “Is romance all you can think about? I just asked if you knew why Miss Paige came to the factory, but you don’t care to know. All you care about is whether I like her, whether I’m interested in her.1

“You say I care about her–yes, I do care right now, because she discovered a problem you failed to find in two years! She came here to investigate financial irregularities on my behalf

Olivia froze

The disappointment in his eyes cut her to the quick. []

His implication that Adeline was more competent filled her with maddening jealousy. She couldn’t accept it. Just because she claims there’s a problem, there is one? Just because she found something, she’s right?

Victor joined in “I agree with Ms. Waldorf. Are we supposed to accept her word as gospel? Even if there actually is a financial issue, why didn’t she notify the company first? Why not tell Ms. Waldorf? Wasn’t she just trying to impress you?

“Because there’s a traitor like you in the company!”

A weak ferale voice came from the doorway
