Chapter 1309
“Hey, don’t be like that,’ Colt Mullen quickly stood up from the couch. “Boss, boss, I really messed up. I
swear, from now on, I’ll only follow your orders. Even if President Kings throws a billion at me, I won’t
listen to him.”
He still wanted to be a shareholder of the private detective agency.

Just recently, Veronica Murphy had mentioned that the year-end bonus would grant him and Hanson
Zinkley each a one percent share, with potential for growth in the future and the possibility of receiving
company dividends. Of course, Colt Mullen wanted to work with Veronica Murphy for a long time.
“Enough with the nonsense, tell me, what’s the situation with Matt’spany?” Veronica Murphy got
straight to the point.
Colt Mullen sighed and proceeded to exin the entire situation to Veronica Murphy in detail.
“President Kings’pany has been conducting research on artificial intelligence all along. Half a
month ago, they released their first batch of Al devices for sale, and due to the initial promotion, the
sales were good. However, starting two days ago, people beganining that thepany’s Al
devices emit ultrasonic or some kind of sound frequency that damages the human nervous system,
causing mental confusion and disorientation.”
“At first, there were only a fewints, but more and more people startedining, and some
even started protesting outside thepany’s gates. President Kings has been trying to control public
opinion, but I estimate that if the situation isn’t handled well, he won’t be able to control it for much
longer.”
Veronica Murphy found Colt Mullen’s words hard to believe. After a few moments of silence, she said,
“Secretly investigate whether these people have any connections. Have Hanson Zinkley put aside his
current tasks, and the two of you investigate together.”
“Yes, boss,” Colt Mullen replied.
Suddenly, Veronica Murphy thought of something and asked, “By the way, how are those highly paid
hires you mentionedst time?”
“Hahaha, every single one of them is talented. Boss, don’t worry, there’s no problem at all,” Colt
Mullen’s tone carried a hint of pride. As the detective agency’s business expanded, thepany
indeed needed to recruit new people.
Veronica Murphy naturally trusted Colt Mullen and Hanson Zinkley. She nodded slightly, “You two have
worked hard. I’ll give you a generous present at the end of the year.”
“Great, thank you, boss.”
Colt Mullen was overjoyed. Veronica Murphy expressed her agreement and ended the call. Sitting in
the car, she looked at the Metric Technology building, feeling a mix of mncholy.
Once upon a time, Matthew Kings owned thergest building in Bloomstead, the Cal Building. But now,
the Spinfluence Group has fallen into the hands of Conrad Kings, who has countless supporters,
allowing his business to growrger and creating a significant distance between him and Matthew
Kings..
Veronica Murphy knew that she had a direct connection to all of this. As the New Year approached, the
streets were bustling with cars, and workers were already hangingnterns on tree branches, creating
a busy atmosphere that signaled the uing holiday season.
In contrast, the scene outside Metric Technology formed a stark contrast.
Just as she had mentioned, Matthew Kings hadn’t called her since he left Lothen yesterday, which left
her slightly displeased. But she never expected that Matthew Kings’pany would encounter so
many troublesome issues. But what could she do to help Matthew Kings?
Money, with her current savings, was insignificant.
Influence?
She was all alone, without any powerful allies. How could she possibly assist him? A few minutes ago,
Veronica Murphy even considered storming into Metric Technology’s president’s office to confront
Matthew Kings.
But now, she suddenly lost her confidence and didn’t even know what to do. Matthew Kings had
Conrad Kings supporting him.
It was rumored that Conrad Kings had secretly contacted Prince Zac’s older brother multiple times. The
outside world knew that Anthony’s brother, Joey Nibel Francis, doted on Anthony excessively.
