Chapter 1092 Hard To Uncover
Thalia still ignored him. “What? Am I not a witness anymore?" “You? “Yes!”
“Since the day you returned last time, you've been standing before Holden. Do you think he would still believe what you say? More precisely, would he believe it all?” Anthony asked.
“Kyle, Holden, and I, we understand each other,” Thalia said. “Even if he's angry with me, he would never suspect me! ‘Is that so?” “Drop the question mark!” Thalia said. “After all these years, we still have this level of trust and understanding.”
Anthony indeed didn’t understand much, and he was always the type to anticipate the worst outcome. After some contemplation, he said, “No. Even so, we must take that person away. What if he doesn't believe us?”
Thalia glanced at him. “Do you really have such little faith in me?"
“That's a different matter altogether!
At that moment, Thalia swiftly whipped out something and tossed it directly behind her.
Anthony swiftly caught it. It was something akin to a camera. He examined it in his hands and asked, “What is this?” “What do you think?”
After a while, Anthony looked up at her again, “Don't tell me you captured everything that just happened?
Hearing that, Thalia responded, “Not just that.
“More than that?” Anthony furrowed his brows, suddenly understanding something. "Don’t tell me you live-streamed it!” Thalia laughed, glancing at the person seated behind her through the rearview mirror. “Not bad. You react quite quickly. “Did you really broadcast it live to them?” Anthony asked.
Thalia nodded. “That's correct.
“Well...”
“They already know now,” Thalia said.
Anthony was suddenly at a loss for words.
Looking at the person in the rearview mirror, Thalia saw that Anthony's expression was tense as if he was somewhat unhappy. “What's wrong? Are you angry?” she asked
Anthony withdrew his gaze. also looking forward. Their eyes met in the mirror. He pursed his lips and replied, “What do I have to be angry about? You've been more thoughtful than I could have been, and you've avoided some problems. I can't thank you enough!”
As Thalia listened, she narrowed her eyes suspiciously. “Your expression doesn't seem to be one of gratitude.”
Anthony heaved a heavy sigh. "I'm just expressing relief and gratitude. It's fortunate that you thought of it. Otherwise, I'm afraid this matter would have been hard to explain.”
This statement, indeed, seemed to hold some truth.
Thalia looked at him. “I was merely taking precautionary measures. If that person could find the evidence and was willing to testify, it would be ideal. Even if they didn’t want to testify, we would still have the evidence, wouldn't we?”
Upon hearing this, Anthony nodded. "Hmm. You're absolutely right.” “Therefore, ease your mind,” Thalia said to him as she looked at him Taking a deep breath, Anthony nodded heavily. “Hmm.”
As they were speaking, Thalia's phone began to ring.
Upon seeing the incoming call displayed, Thalia instinctively looked behind her. Anthony, whe was sitting behind her, naturally caught sight of the words flashing on her phone screen
It was a call from Kyle.
The two stopped talking, and Thalia simply pressed the answer button.
“Hey, Boss.”
On the other end of the phone, there was a long, lingering silence.
At one point, Thalia thought there was an issue with her phone signal. “Hello, Boss?” she asked. ‘I'm here.” Kyle's heavy voice rang out.
“What's wrong? You sound as if you've been hit by a piece of terrible news,” Thalia teased. “Isn't that so?” Kyle retorted.
“Are you talking about Lobeck?” Thalia asked.
“Even when I was confronting Anthony before, I had this intuition. If what he said was true, then there must be a massive conspiracy behind this matter. Now, it seems my suspicions have been confirmed,” Kyle said.
“Boss, are you saying that you believe what this person is saying?” Thalia asked.
“Don't you believe?” Kyle retorted.
‘I'm certain I believe it,” Thalia stated outright. “ orsover, after so many years of straggling i in this field, can somewhatdiscern whether or notc someone is lying. This person surely has apersonal vendetta, but he’ coultin't possibly fabricate such a huge incident. If it really is-@ fabrication, then I might 3s well consider all my years wasted!”
“Since that's the case, why are you still asking me?” Kyle asked directly.
“The issue was that it didn’t matter if I believed. It has to be you who believe.” “It's useless if only I believe. Others must believe too,” Kyle said
Speaking of which, Thalia immediately asked, “What was Holden's reaction? Does he believe it? “He isn't here.”
“He isn't there?
“That's right!”
“Where did he go?”
Kyle didn't respond directly. Instead, he asked, “Where is Anthony?"
“He's right behind me,” Thalia said.
“Give him the phone. I have a few words to say,” Kyle stated directly.
Thalia directly handed the phone over to Anthony.
After receiving the phone, Anthony said softly, “I'm here.
yle took a deep breath and said, Anthony, I'tnot sure if you're familiar with Lobeck, but what I wafit to tell yotris that uncovering the truth might be much harder than you imagine. You need to be mentally prepared.” ‘o 4
“
“I know,” Anthony said
“However, it's not necessarily about finding someone specific. As long as we can prove it was them, letting Holden know would suffice,” Anthony said ‘If that's really the case, then Holden's target will surely be over there. What will we do then?” Anthony asked
“What else can be done? As long as they're not one of us, it's manageable!” Kyle said.
Upon hearing this, Anthony nodded. “All right, I understand.”
“It's surprising that you've managed to uncover matters from over a decade ago. However, regardless of anything else, the foremost duty is still to protect oneself.”
“Don't worry. I will.”
“All right. If there's nothing else, I'll be waiting for your news.” Kyle said
“All right,” Anthony responded, then handed the phone back to Thalia
Thalia took back her phone and reassured Kyle, “Boss, don't worry. With me around, nothing will happen to your future star!” “Protect him, but also take good care of yourself.
“You can rest assured, after all, I am a person who values my life.
“All right. I'm hanging up.
“However, there’s one more thing,” Thalia said
“What?”
‘I suppose I’m on a mission now, aren't I?” Thalia asked, driving without even glancing at her phone. “So?”
“If this is a mission, will I get rewarded—”
Beep!
Before she could even finish speaking, the busy tone was already sounding from the phone
When Thalia lowered her gaze, she discovered that the call had already been disconnected.
Looking at her phone, she furrowed her brows and grumbled, “No. Have people nowadays really become so short-sighted?”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
Anthony sat ashind her, listening to Thalia's words. A smile involuntarily tugged atthe corner of his mouth.-> “For Kylé+talking about money hurts relatignships. You insist on hurting his feelings. Can you blame im for reaéting this way?” Contentbelongs 4
Thalia clicked her tongue twice. then couldn't help but say, “They say the wealthier people are, the stingier they become. This statement couldn't be more true!”
As she spoke, her gaze casually swept over Anthony behind her. Suddenly, as if struck by a thought, her eyes lit up instantly.
