In the face of the teasing remarks from both Emmanuel and Shane, Frederick finally sighed heavily.
“I’ve killed someone! And not just one person, but many!”
“What?!” Emmanuel and Shane were both startled.
“How did you kill them? Was it a mass ughter, like a billion executed against a wall?”
Shane, startled, initially thought Frederick was joking. After all, this guy was practically harmless. How
could he possibly kill someone?
“Shane, hold your dirty jokes for now! Get out of here!” Emmanuel, however, under Frederick better.
This expression didn’t seem like a joke, so he quickly stopped Sha and told Frederick, “Don’t panic.
Organize your thoughts and exin properly!”
Frederick swallowed and, after steadying himself, recounted the whole story.
“What? You’re saying there was a radiation issue at the Hadley factory, causing arge number of
people to fall seriously ill, even on the brink of death?” Emmanuel, too, was stunned. Why hadn’t
Mackenzie mentioned this issue to him?
“Yes!” Frederick pped his thigh anxiously. “It was only today that officials from the city’s political
bureau came to me, and I found out about this huge incident. Those patients had been appearing for a
while, but someone deliberately concealed it!”
“Who hid the people? What was their purpose?” Shane still wore a face of disbelief. If this issue went
really wrong, his and Emmanuel’spany would be in big trouble!
Frederick shook his head. He didn’t know either.
Only Emmanuel remained calm, specting, “The people behind this must have wanted to gather the
patients first and expose everything at once in the end,pletely ruining Terence Group without
giving any chance!”
Hehe…
Shane and Frederick gasped at the sinister n.
“So, you were the one who signed that responsibility document for the Onza Chamber of Commerce
before, Frederick?” At this moment, Beatrix also heard their conversation and rushed in excitedly.
Frederick nodded. “At that time, the Chamber of Commerce said our products might cause radiation
problems. If we didn’t sign that responsibility document, no one would take responsibility, and we
wouldn’t be allowed to produce the super engine! At that time, I thought, how could there be radiation in
our products? Even if there were, our workers would wear radiation-proof clothing, and unrted
people can’t enter our factory, so I just signed it!”
Hearing Frederick’s words, Beatrix was speechless. After a while, she scolded urgently,
“You should have consulted me, your superior, first for such a big matter! How could you decide on
your own ord?!”
“Ms. Beatrix, you were being kidnapped at the time! And I thought, in case of an ident, I’d take the
me myself and not involve you!”
Frederick’s words left Beatrix at a loss. She wanted to scold him but couldn’t find the words. After all,
the project was so urgent that they couldn’t afford to dy even for a day. Frederick, for her and the
sake of thepany, had no choice but to sign his name.
Still, he was an employee of Terence Group, and if something went wrong, even if he was willing to
take the me, it would still implicate Terence Group.
How can he be so simple-minded?!
“Beatrix, now is not the time for ountability. Let’s figure out how to solve the problem quickly!”
Emmanuel spoke up for Frederick.

“But Emmanuel, aren’t you supposed to be fully preparing for the Grand Martial
Showdown these days? How can you have time to focus on other matters?” Beatrix was apprehensive.
The results of the Grand Martial Showdown were also significant for the Quillen family.
“There’s no other way. This concerns the survival of the Terence Group, which is more important than
reaching the summit. Besides, your sister is pregnant. Don’t tell her about this for now, so she doesn’t
worry too much!” Emmanuel advised gravely.
At this moment, Beatrix thought her brother-inw was really reliable. However, she found his gaze at
the moment inexplicably simr to her hero. Hold up! Their lips als look very alike! Weren’t they the
very lips under the mask when I fed my hero cake other day? What’s going on? Is it a coincidence?
“Come on, let’s visit the patients! Do you know which hospital they’re in?” Emmanuel didn’t notice his
sister-inw’s strange expression as he spoke to Frederick.
Once he saw the patients, he could determine the cause of their illness. If it wasn’t rted to radiation,
the issue could be resolved directly.
