"Their defenses are tight, but we've managed to uncover a flaw. The situation in Restrad is tense at the moment, but thankfully, we hold the advantage." Beryl sat opposite Colton, his face etched with seriousness, not sparing a single glance at Wendy. He passed the file he was holding to Colton.
In essence, both factions were in a deadlock, neither gaining the upper hand. The only reason they maintained an advantage domestically was due to Ryan's unpredictable nature and impatience. However, the situation overseas might not mirror it. Despite having a plan, their execution might be hindered under Kendrick's watchful eye.
"It's alright. Finding a flaw is good enough for now. How's the investigation into the subsidiary company progressing?" Colton asked as he skimmed through the file in his hand, quirking a brow slightly.
They had been aware of the subsidiary company for quite some time, but the specifics were well-hidden by Kendrick.
"His female secretary has been making some noise, and she made a move against Nicole recently," Beryl replied, looking at Colton with a faint smile.
At the mention of 'Nicole,' Wendy immediately perked up and started listening attentively, though she still maintained the appearance of someone idle, eagerly wanting to go out and have fun.
Beryl quirked a brow upon noticing Wendy's reaction but decided not to call her out, allowing her to eavesdrop.
If his hunch was correct, Wendy and Nicole must have struck some sort of deal, and Nicole had likely provided explanations for their previous actions. If Wendy continued to have a close relationship with Nicole and acted in a way that benefited Colton, he wouldn't interfere.
Nicole.
Colton immediately looked up at Beryl upon hearing Nicole's name being mentioned. Seeing Beryl's enigmatic smile, he realized the guy had done it intentionally.
That said, the information was certainly not fabricated, and his curiosity to gauge his reaction was genuine as well.
