    The next day, Ss knocked on the CEO’s office door. He went in with Conrad’s permission.


    “Sir, there’s something that I need to report to you.” With that, he quickly nced at his madam who


    was focusing on her designs.


    Conrad understood what he meant by that. “Inform the directors of each department to go to the


    meeting room and get ready for the meeting.”


    “Of course!”


    Only after Ss left did Fia look at Conrad with a smile. “I can’t listen to what Ss wanted to say to


    you?”

    Conrad smiled as he looked at the document on hisputer screen. “You’re worried for nothing. I


    don’t have the time to listen to him right now. I’ll let him say it during the meeting.”


    “Then can I join the meeting?” Fia looked at him without blinking as she spun the pen in her hand.


    “Of course,” Conrad said without hesitation.


    Seeing how rxed he was, Fia felt that she had indeed thought too much into it. She clicked her


    tongue and said, “It’s fine. Meetings are so boring. I should focus on my designs.”


    “The meeting can be quite dry. I’ll take you to the farm in the evening after work.”


    “Sure! I’m feeling like roastmb tonight!”


    “Okay,” Conrad said as he took his phone and then sent Ford a text message-to prepare the roastmb


    for him.


    Meanwhile, a group of people were sitting in the meeting room on full alert.


    Conrad looked inside from outside of the ss window. He and Ss moved to the side.


    “What did you want to tell me?”


    “The caretaker that used to work for the Mannings contacted me. She said that a woman went to the


    Manning’s old mansion.”


    “Who is it?”


    “Britney,” Ss said as he took out a phone and opened the picture the caretaker sent over. This is


    what she sent me.”


    Conrad looked at Ss’s phone. The picture was a wefie of her and “Britney Thomas.”


    Britney had a quiet smile on her face and was holding up a peace sign.


    He remembered that Esme hated such childish hand signs.


    “Why did she go to the mansion?”


    “The caretaker said that she was thinking about Esme. They were acquainted overseas, so she came


    over to visit the Manning household. She also wanted to visit her parents, but she didn’t expect that


    they were gone.


    Conrad was expressionless. “How about the investigation on her when she was overseas?”


    “There’s nothing suspicious. She was with Peter after she went overseas. Meanwhile, as Peter was


    Ms. Manning’s teacher, she did have interactions with her.”


    “There’s nothing suspicious at all?”


    Ss frowned. “We asked everyone about working with Britney. They mentioned that she didn’t return


    to theb for work for about a month before she returned to the country. Peter, who was known for his


    friendly demeanor, was very intense during this time. He would yell at anyone who made the smallest


    of mistakes.”


    “What is Peter’s identity at the overseas researchb?”


    “Shareholder. He’s very important for theb.”


    “If that’s the case, why did hee back?” Conrad asked coldly.


    “He said he wanted to return to and do research for his home country. He no longer wanted to be


    overseas.”


    “Is that right?” Conrad straightened his tie. “Continue the investigation on those two suspicious people.


    If needed, put them to work. Let’s see if we can make them. expose anything!”


    “Understood.”


    “Let’s go back to the meeting!”


    The meeting was focused on the resignation of the Director of Foreign Affairs. Several members of


    high-level management rmended a number of talents, hoping to fill up the director’s spot.


    However, after Conrad finished listening to their suggestion, he smiled. “Do each of you want to do it


    yourselves?”
