Chapter 2513
"Alright then, if there's nothing else, you can head back to work. I'll inform you if there are any updates about the evidence we are gathering," Nicole said.
"Sure. Thank you, Nicole," Lulu took a deep breath, trying to calm down before exiting the office.
Leaning against her office chair, Nicole frowned as something flitted in her mind. Unfortunately, it was too fleeting for her to grasp. When she tried to dwell on it for a moment, she found nothing particularly noteworthy. With a sigh, Nicole redirected her attention to her work.
The sun was still strong and bright in the late afternoon when Nicole was sitting on the couch with a pensive look on her face.
And when she heard a knock on her door, she announced," Come in,"
After the door had swung open, Lulu strode in quickly. " NandoCorp has been sealed off for investigation."
"Sealed off?!" Nicole blurted.
Initially, she thought that they would only face fines or be forced to restructure, but having the entire company sealed off was something she did not see coming.
"Well, we suspect that the officials have discovered other illegal activities during the tax evasion investigation," Lulu
remarked. "After all, they seem capable of anything."
NandoCorp's internal operations were probably rife with shady deals from the very beginning.
"Bad luck I guess," Nicole shrugged, not expecting NandoCorp to crumble so easily under investigation.
"However, Everett has been unusually quiet these past few days. Something seems off to me," Lulu said with utmost seriousness. "Don't tell me he couldn't take the hit and had a mental breakdown?"
"He won't," Nicole replied, as a frosty glint crossed her eyes.' People like Everett would only become more dangerous and unpredictable in silence.'
Worried, Lulu asked, "Could he be plotting something?"
