From Ashes of Scandal to His Embrace (Laurinda) novel Chapter 330

“I’ve already lined everything up for dealing with the Henley family,” Sam said. “Once the holiday’s over, we’ll get started. Trust me, you won’t have to wait much longer.”

Sam had heard about the whole thing yesterday, and he figured Adolphus would be pretty upset. He’d wasted no time, already digging into who was behind the rumors. Anyone involved had been kicked out, no exceptions.

“We’re already sorting it out. Everyone who spread those rumors is gone. I also made it clear that there’s nothing between me and Laurinda. But since she wants to keep things quiet, I haven’t mentioned how much she’s helped the company.”

Adolphus nodded, looking pleased with how fast Sam was handling everything. He wasn’t letting any of the troublemakers off easy, especially Candida.

“Let’s talk to Laurinda later,” Adolphus said. “Maybe she’d be okay with being listed as a technical consultant?”

Egan, who’d been listening nearby, jumped in with his own idea. “That’d be perfect. If the Bill Group’s PR team puts out the announcement, no one will question it.”

Sam nodded. “As soon as Laurinda agrees, I’ll set it up.”

Meanwhile, Laurinda was in her study, tracking people’s movements one by one. She still couldn’t find anything related to what Aileen had mentioned. It wasn’t until she checked on Laura that something stood out—Laura hadn’t left the villa on the outskirts of Bagot for a whole week. No movement at all. That was suspicious.

Laurinda leaned back in her chair, letting her hands fall away from the keyboard. Someone needed to check on Laura. She closed her eyes, thinking it over. No one seemed right for the job, until suddenly she thought of the perfect person. She picked up her phone and called Kinsey.

Kinsey was a little surprised to get her call so soon after she’d left. He wondered if something had happened.

“What’s up?” he asked.

“I need your help,” Laurinda said. “I tracked down Laura’s location. Could you have an officer drop by, just to make sure she’s still there? Say it’s about Baily’s report—claim she took off with his stuff. That should be enough to bring her in for questioning if needed.”
