Chapter 62


    My temples were throbbing. Afterforting Monique, I left the interrogation room. Josiah was waiting


    for me in the hall. He spotted me and approached me. He asked, "Is she okay?"


    "How many years will she be sentenced if she''s convicted?" I questioned with a heavy heart. I was


    having a migraine.


    "Either fifteen years of imprisonment, lifetime imprisonment, or a death penalty. It depends on the


    amount of methamphetamine that was found. The bigger the amount, the heavier the penalty," Josiah


    replied after leaving the police station with me.


    My head was buzzing and my visions blurred. Andrea was cruel. She had ruined Monique''s life with a


    bar.


    "Don''t worry, the police are still investigating. There''s still hope." Josiah helped me to the rest area and


    I grabbed him and stared at him. "What hope?"


    "She''ll be released if the police find out that she’s not involved. Also, they ran a test and it proved she


    was not taking methamphetamine. Her wardrobe is in the bar, so it''s possible that someone had


    nted it. After the police find the person who messed with her wardrobe, it would be less likely for her


    to be the culprit."


    "That''s right. We should check the bar''s surveince cameras!" I stood up abruptly and wanted to rush


    to Telepathy Bar.


    However, Josiah grabbed me. He seemed a little helpless and exined, "The police thought of the


    same thing too. You should worry about someone meddling with the surveince cameras."


    My brows twitch at his words. I yanked at my hair irritably and stared at Josiah, saying, "You should


    leave, I need to be on my own."


    Josiah wanted to speak but he paused when he saw that I was annoyed. He then reminded me, "Call


    me if you need me."


    He left after that.


    I stood at the entrance of the police station for some time before getting into the car.


    In a phone call with Kelsy, she informed me that she hadpiled theparison report for the


    auditingpanies. She proceeded to email it to me and asked me to look through them. I replied to


    her briefly as my head was in a mess.


    After hesitating for a while, I drove to the vi. Recently, I had been staying away from the vi to avoid


    Hendrix. However, there were things that I could not escape.


    It was still early when I returned to the vi, thus it was empty. The bedroom door and bathroom door


    on the second floor had both been reced with new ones.


    I knew that panicking would not help. Therefore, I went to the study and checked Kelsey''s report. I


    knew that Alford Audit had a high chance of getting it. Surprisingly, Brilliant Audit was second after


    Alford Audit.


    Brilliant Audit was a rtively newpany but it was able topete with a group of experienced


    Hendrix had probably chosen Brilliant Audit because he saw its potential.


    Recalling the previous urrence in the basement, I denied Alford Audit and made a phone call to


    Kelsey.


    The phone rang twice and was connected swiftly. Kelsey greeted, "Miss Reid."

    "Inform everyone that Brilliant Audit will handle Roberts Group''s annual audit."


    Kelsey seemed to be a little surprised. She asked hesitantly, "Miss Reid, but Alford Audit won. If you


    hand the project over to Brilliant Audit, I''m afraid that Alford Audit will make a fuss."


    I knew about that. Michael had abducted me from the basement and forced me through an ordeal to


    threaten me. In the end, he had only requested me to hold a tender.


    He also wanted me to choose the victor. Yet, I had never intended to let the winner take charge of


    Roberts Group''s annual audit!
