The Coldest Man in the Room Melted Only for Me novel Chapter 328

Surprise flashed in Riley's eyes. She never expected Lila to actually team up with Elaine. But she had to admit, Mr. Quill was incredibly efficient—no wonder he was Sebastian's personal lawyer. “She is indeed my colleague.”

“How would you like to deal with her, Ms. Vance?”

Riley wasn't entirely familiar with the law. “What are the options?”

“If the investigation confirms she incited someone to intentionally cause a disturbance, it falls under instigating public disorder. At best, she'll face detention and a fine. If it's deemed severe, she can be charged as the principal offender.”

Last time, Lila intentionally shoved Jenna Joyce—a highly complicated case—onto her. If something had gone wrong with Jenna, Riley's career could have been completely destroyed. Now, Lila had manipulated Elaine from the shadows. Constantly pulling these dirty, underhanded tricks was frankly disgusting.

It seemed the previous demotion hadn't taught her a lesson at all. In that case, let the police teach her how to be a decent human being.

Riley's voice went cold. “Handle it strictly by the book.”

“Understood.”

Once Riley hung up the phone, Zachary finally spoke. “Was that Mr. Quill?”

“Yes. He found out who the mastermind is. It's a colleague from my department.”

Zachary frowned. “Another snake trying to take you down? Guess the last punishment wasn't enough to scare the monkeys.”

“It's the same person from last time.”

“A hospital is a place for saving lives, yet she's busy pulling cheap stunts in the dark. Someone with such a rotten character doesn't deserve to stay in the hospital.”

Riley knew Zachary meant he wanted to fire Lila, so she pressed her lips together and said nothing. Keeping someone like Lila around was definitely a liability. How could someone so twisted be trusted to provide psychological counseling to patients?

The car pulled into The Grand Regency and stopped right in front of Riley's building.
