The Hidden Gold Mine Heiress Divorcee novel Chapter 429

Chapter 429 Ending the Farce 

Early the next morning, Nell went to the police station. 

After coming out from there, he drove to the office building of Lewis Company. 

Sean was controlling the company, and he had been the first one to get fired. 

As he gazed up at the towering building, his lips curled into a cold sneer. 

Whether it was Sean or Erkan, whether it was five years ago or now, the defeated opponents would always remain defeated. 

At that moment, Sean was sitting in a state of desperation in the CEO’s office on the top floor. 

He had been in constant irritation these days. 

He had thought that those senior executives were easy to handle since they had treated him with 

respect. 

But it turned out that each of these people was a smartass capable of playing dirty tricks. 

They obeyed him on the surface but tripped him up behind the scenes. 

Their excuses were so sound that he couldn’t find fault with them, leaving himself to sulk. 

He was angry because he had planned to start a new game project. Boris hadn’t paid much attention. 

to it. 

He wanted to be different from Boris, to break new ground in different industries and

At first, the top management agreed, which made him very happy. No sooner had the project been developed for three days than they raised a lot of problems. 

As he sat there thinking, there was a knock on the door. 

Sean slumped in his chair and said helplessly, “Come in.” 

The visitors were none other than those old foxes. 

He motioned for everyone to sit down and then asked, “What’s up?” 

One of the leaders spoke up. “Mr. Lewis, we’ve been thinking about that game project you mentioned. The questions we raised earlier really aren’t a problem.” 

Sean raised his eyebrows, wondering what kind of game these old foxes were playing. 

Get Bonus 

He nodded. “Then what brings you guys here?” 

“But we are still worried,” the leader said with a hint of compassion. “However, if you can guarantee a turnover of two million dollars within a month after the game’s launch, we will vote to approve the project.” 

Sean forced a smile, grinding his teeth. 

He knew they were up to no good! 

These swine were trying to trap him. 

The 

No wonder they had been criticizing him for the past few days. This turned out to be their real goal. They wanted him to pledge. 

If he did that, he would be completely at their mercy. They could deliberately cause trouble and ensure that he couldn’t complete the task. 

Then he would be a fish on the chopping block. 

If they demanded payment, he would have to pay; if they told him to leave, he would have to go! 

He couldn’t do that. 

Playing dumb, he said, “Who makes pledges these days?” 

“If you don’t issue it, we have no confidence in this project and cannot agree to it.” 

Sean’s voice turned cold as the cards were put on the table. 

He stared at the crowd with his gloomy eyes. “Are you trying to force me?” 

The atmosphere grew tense. 

Suddenly… 

Rat-tat! 

There was a knock on the door, breaking the eerie silence. 

Sean was relieved at the interruption and quickly responded, “Come in!” 

In walked his secretary with a bewildered expression, followed by a group of uniformed police 

officers. 

“Mr. Lewis, these police officers want to see you.” 

The 

“Oh,” Sean replied calmly because he didn’t believe they had any evidence against him. 

“Gentlemen, if you have any questions, you can ask me here.” 

Turning to the old foxes, he said apologetically, “I’m sorry, but you’ll have to leave now. Let’s talk 

about it another time.” 

“I’m afraid you don’t have that chance, Mr. Lewis,” said the leading police officer with a smile as he 

took out a pair of handcuffs. “Sean, or perhaps I should call you Erkan, you are involved in a crime 

and are now being arrested as a criminal suspect. Please come with us.” 

The smile on Sean’s face gradually faded. 

He spread his hands and shrugged in surprise. “I don’t understand. Is there a misunderstanding?” 

The police officer didn’t bother to explain in detail. He just said, “Take him away! You’ll find out 

soon enough.” 

Sean tried to say something, but his hands were already cuffed. 

Two police officers led him out, one on either side. 

His face was dark and stormy. 

The group left the building. 

It was during working hours, and almost all the employees saw what happened. They whispered among themselves, and soon the news spread all over the internet. 

Nell received the news immediately and excitedly called Ziana to tell her the good news. 

After hearing him out, Ziana gracefully curled her lips. “I see. Make an appointment for me. I’m going to meet Erkan.” 

“Will do!” Nell agreed enthusiastically. 

In the interrogation room of the police station. 

Sean sat at a gray table with his hands cuffed and his feet fixed to the seat. 

In front of him was a curtain. 

A video was playing on it. 

His expression changed from calm to panic, then to anger, and finally to numbness. 

Get Bo 

Half an hour later. 

The video had finished playing. 

“The video evidence is convincing,” said the police officer. “We’ve sent someone to contact the
