The Divorced Heiress Revenge (Bella Thompson) novel Chapter 2023

Upon hearing it, Christopher pushed his gold-rimmed glasses, his lips curling up coldly. “Did you leave any trace?”

“There are always traces whenever a crime is committed. But as long as there are no witnesses, it’s equivalent to no traces.” Owen smiled gracefully. “Mr. Christopher, can’t you trust me? I’m a professional.”

A criminal committing crimes was already terrifying enough. It was even more terrifying when the murderer himself was a seasoned police chief with many years of experience and highly skilled.

“Excellent. You’ve worked hard.” Christopher temporarily forgot the anger brought by his wound, and his smile deepened. “Deputy Chief Hopkins, you’re so reliable. I won’t mistreat you when I succeed.”

“You’re too kind. As long as the medicine can be successfully developed, I am willing to do anything.” Owen’s tone was genuine.

“It will. You must believe in our all-powerful Boss.”

After ending the call, Christopher lowered his gloomy eyes and stared at the black screen, sneering silently.

“How unbelievable.”

Taylor’s eyes were full of admiration. “A deputy chief with high authority was willing to submit at your feet, ready to lay down his life… It just shows how much of a charismatic leader you are!”

“It’s not my charisma. It’s the new medicine.” Christopher glanced outside the window at the gloomy sky, his gaze ambiguous. “I’m also waiting for that day to come.”

Thinking of all the experimental data he had sent to Meridan, Christopher felt hopeful. “It shouldn’t be far away…”

At this moment, another call came in. It was Lance’s head secretary.

Christopher’s gaze darkened as he tugged his tie, picking it up slowly. “What is it?”

“Mr. Christopher, Chairman Iverson wants you to meet him at the company this afternoon when you’re free.”

“Must it be today?” Christopher’s expression was frustrated and disdainful.

“It must be today. This is an order from Chairman Iverson.” After that, before waiting for Christopher to answer, the secretary coldly hung up.

“What an asshole! How dare he be so rude to you!” Taylor clenched his fists angrily.

“You’ve said he is an asshole. If he bites me, could I bite back?” Christopher’s voice was icy, his eyes darkening. “It looks like my father has prepared a gift for me, the son he values most.”

After Elias was arrested, the head of the Southern Star Syndicate, Watson Jenkins, spared no money to hire the best lawyers in the country for his godson’s lawsuit. However, the situation was still not optimistic.
