Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 328

Isabella’s expression faltered slightly.

Mr. Harrison had confirmed it himself…

No wonder her family believed it so readily.

After all, who would believe that Mr. Harrison—a titan in the field of national security, a professor at the prestigious D University, a man considered a national treasure—would lie for Serena?

Isabella didn’t know why Mr. Harrison would lie for Serena either.

She wrung her hands, putting on an even more confused and innocent expression. “Julian, why would I lie to you? My former classmate is Mr. Harrison’s personal assistant. He’s responsible for logging everything that goes on with Mr. Harrison’s team. Any new project has to go through him.”

She thought for a moment, her eyes widening. “Could it be… a project so important that it has to be kept secret even from his personal assistant? What level of clearance would that require? My sister… could she really handle a project with such high clearance?”

Seeing her family’s frowns deepen and their gazes turn unfriendly, Isabella pretended not to notice. Her face was a picture of worry and helplessness. “Why don’t… why don’t I call my old classmate again to double-check? Maybe it’s true that his clearance isn’t high enough.”

With that, she dialed Hank’s number right in front of her family and put the call on speakerphone.

“Hank, sorry to bother you again so late. I just wanted to confirm one more time, are you sure there are no new projects starting at Mr. Harrison’s lab? And no new members joining? Is it possible there’s some kind of special project that you don’t have clearance for yet?”

Hank’s voice came through clearly from the other end. “Isabella, if there really was a project, I would have told you. I double-checked everything again when I got back, and there are definitely no new projects and no new members.”

“I have records of all of Mr. Harrison’s projects. There’s no such thing as a project I don’t have clearance for, unless… it’s something even Mr. Harrison himself doesn’t have clearance for, which is obviously impossible.”

Isabella glanced cautiously at her family before speaking. “Okay… thanks, Hank. Goodbye.”

After the call ended, the entire living room fell into a dead silence.

The expressions of everyone in the Lancaster family grew solemn, their eyes filled with deep concern.

Despite Isabella’s deliberate manipulation, no one in the Lancaster family felt even a hint of suspicion toward Serena. There was only worry.
