Chapter 1632


    It was a fine Friday when the James family convened a meeting with bidders.


    Gavin had explicitly instructed the staff from Starlight Corporation to ensure that their head


    representative Waters, should be in attendance.


    The meeting began promptly at 10 AM, with all fourpanies’ representatives in attendance except


    for Horizon Enterprises.


    As Charlie and his people entered, the room was abuzz with whispers of how the James family would


    handle the situation. Upon his arrival, everyone stood up and greeted them with respect and courtesy


    “Mr. James, Mr. Gavin!”


    “Has Mr. James called us here for to discuss the resolution?”


    “What does Mr. James n to do about Emily?”


    Charlie gestured for then to take their seats, his handsome face exuding warmth andposure,


    “Regarding the leak of the reserve, we have made some progress in our investigation. You’ve all been


    waiting for an answer. Today, we’ll provide you with our findings.”


    Gavin chimed in, “Through Our investigation, we’ve found that the allegations about Emily epting a


    transfer of three hundred thousand dors and valuable gifts from Horizon Enterprises arepletely


    baseless.”


    Upon hearing this, the representatives exchanged nces, their expressions varying.


    Mr. Larry, who was seated next to Waters, immediately retorted, “How can we believe that what you’re


    saying is true? The James family is a well-established enterprise and your reputation is of utmost


    important. We’ve coborated with you because of your integrity. You can’t simply throw out excuses to


    deceive us!”


    Gavin smirked, “I haven’t finish the statement, Mr. Larry. No need to be so hasty?


    Chagrined, Mr. Larry gave a nce at Waters and fell silent.


    Waters, wearing a thin smile, said after casting a nce at Charlie, “Mr. Gavin ims Emily was


    framed by someone. We’re all ears if you’d like to share by whom and for what purpose.”


    Gavin responded, “Emily has already exined the full context of the three hundred thousand transfer


    and we’ve also checked her personal ount, finding no irregrities. As for the photos which showed


    Emily’s family epting valuable items, we’ve conducted an investigation. Someone intentionally


    impersonated our staff and delivered the gifts to Emily’s house in the name of Mr. James. The intent to


    frame Emily is quite clear.” Mr. Matz from the Iriver Group’ queried, “Who would do this, and what is the


    motive?”


    “Framing Emily and undermining Horizon Enterprises; two birds, one stone,” Gavin nced at Waters.


    “Do you think I’m correct, Ms. Waters?” Waters’s face turned pale, and he retorted with a cold smile, it


    wasn’t me. Why is Mr. Gavin questioning me? Besides, do you have any evidence for this statement?


    We can’t just believe it based solely on your or Emily’ words.


    “Of course, we have evidence,” Gavin responded calmly. “We’ve checked the security footage from


    Emily’s apartment and identified the person who delivered the gifts to her. Although she was cautious,


    wearing sunsses to conceal her face, we could still discern her body shape and facial contours.


    Does she look familiar to you, Waters?”


    As Gavin spoke, he cast the photo onto the conference screen behind him.


    He then disyed another photo of Waters with an assistant at apany ribbon-cutting event.


    ced these two photos side by side, it was evident that the woman who deliver gifts to Emily’s home


    was Waters’s assistant!


    The room fell silent as everyone’s gaze fell on Waters.


    Gavin added coldly, “Your employee impersonated Mr. James to deliver the gift to Emily, and secretly


    took photos. Am I correct, Ms. Waters?” Waters stared at the photos on the screen and felt the piercing


    gaze from Charlie. He broke into a cold sweat and stuttered, “Even though there’s a slight


    resemnce, her face was covered. No one can definitively say she’s my assistant!”


    Charlie spoke faintly. “Waters, I’m giving you a chance to tell the truth.”


    Waters’s eyes flickered, and she stubbornly retorted, “I don’t need any chance from Mr. James. I


    haven’t done anything!”


    Emily’s phone suddenly rang She answered, “Mr. Walton? Have you arrived? Yes, we’re on the


    neenth floor, pleasee up!” N?velDrama.Org content rights.
