Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren) novel Chapter 761

Lauren's expression immediately fell, and she quickly pulled out her phone to check the news online.

Then, she looked up at Andrew and said, "Dr. Lloyd, it's true—The Wellers' pharmaceutical warehouse was set on fire. Billions worth of supplements have been burned to ashes, and the entire place went up in flames!"

Francesca added, "This is huge! I saw an interview—Harvey is completely losing it. He swore he'd catch the culprit and tear them to pieces!"

With such a juicy scandal, Andrew naturally wanted in on the drama. He grabbed his phone, ready to check out the Wellers' disaster for himself.

However, before he could even open the news, his phone started ringing. It was Donald, the chief commissioner of the Jayrodale Police Department.

Andrew put the call on speaker, and Donald's voice came through immediately. He said, "Mr. Lloyd, I need to give you a heads-up on something. Rhodes Corporation's Pharmaceutical Division is under investigation for unfair competition.

"The vice CEO, Michael Rhodes, was caught setting fire to the Wellers' warehouse. Our entire department is on this case now. Every Rhodes Corporation executive and all pharmaceutical division employees are being called in for questioning!"

Since Andrew had his phone on speaker, Lauren, Francesca, and Cedric all heard the announcement.

Francesca was stunned, mumbling, "Wait… Michael started the fire?"

Lauren instantly grasped the severity of the situation and demanded, "Mr. Warren, are you saying Michael set fire to the Wellers' warehouse? Do you have proof?"

Donald sighed. "Not just proof—it's ironclad evidence. Their surveillance cameras caught everything, and the security guards at the entrance saw Michael and four other Rhodes Pharmaceutical executives walking in and setting the place ablaze.
