Chapter 676 Mysterious Man

Sometimes, Matteo really admired Ainsley's acumen.

She could always detect something that no one else could.

Matteo nodded, his eyebrow slightly raised as he observed Ainsley. "You don't already have a plan, do you?"

Ainsley shook her head. "No, I'm not that good yet. But maybe we can try to flush out tire snake."

A smile tugged at the comer of Matteo's lips. "You mean, find out what he's up to by testing him, right?"

Ainsley chuckled and playfully looked at him. "Seems like my cousin is the one who understands me the best."

This matter was still not suitable tor others to know.

1 lence, Ainsley decided to send Luna home before they delved into the details.

Matteo, however, seemed a bit reluctant. "You sent her away, but what will we eat tor lunch?"

Ainsley cleared her throat and calmly responded, "The food at Exquisite Building is not bad. 1'11 have it delivered later."

Having exchanged enough banter, it was time for them to get down to business.

Both Ainsley and Matteo grew serious.

Ainsley dialed Daniel's phone number and put it on speaker, waiting in silence for him to answer.

The first call went unanswered.

Ainsley exchanged a glance with Matteo. Undeterred, she dialed again.

This time, Daniel picked up the call quickly.

Ainsley breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could say anything, she heard Daniel's voice filled with displeasure, questioning her, "Why didn't you come to treat me as agreed? Have you forgotten our contract?"

Ainsley replied, her tone composed, "Of course, I remember."

In truth, she simply didn't want to go to that oppressive mansion. Stepping into it made it hard for her to breathe.

Ainsley continued, "You're not my only patient, and your symptoms are the mildest, so I prioritized others."

Matteo's expression mirrored the unpleasantness in Daniel's voice. If it weren't for Ainsley's insistence, he would have wanted to confront Daniel directly and throw the company shares at him.

However, Ainsley couldn't be bothered with his attitude. Before Daniel could react further, she swiftly shifted the conversation to the topic she wanted to address. "I have something to ask you."

Daniel's attention was successfully diverted. "What is it?"

"When you and Irene framed Lainey and recorded her, who did you give the video to?"

"You're referring to the leaked video?" Daniel replied without hesitation, "What does that have to do with me? You don't think T leaked the video, do you?"

Ainsley sneered at his response. "Isn't it?"

Daniel's voice grew lower and more threatening, "Don't make baseless accusations. That video has nothing to do with me. You better come and treat me as soon as possible, or don't blame me for taking extreme

measures."

Unwilling to listen to his threats any longer, Ainsley promptly hung up the call.

The so-called extreme measures was nothing more than using the contract against her, taking away something she held dear.

As she ended the call, Ainsley's hands trembled involuntarily. She didn't believe Daniel's denial, but even if he was the mastermind behind it all, what could she do?

A few minutes later, a text message appeared on Ainsley's phone.

The sender was unknown, and the number unidentified. The message read, [Daniel met the mysterious person and handed over a hard drive.]

Seeing the change in Ainsley's expression, Matteo took her phone and read the message. His own expression turned serious as well.
