Chapter 1923


    Mike''s expression darkened. "What do you mean?"


    "Nothing much," Rhea replied leisurely and unhurriedly. Her gaze scrutinized Mike as she continued,


    "You should be the one most aware of the boss''s disappearance. After all, you were the only one there,


    weren''t you?"


    As she said this, she turned to look at the man sitting across from her.


    Mike put his hands on the table and retaliated, "What are you implying here? Are you saying I


    kidnapped the boss? Why would I do that? What good would it do for me?"


    "That''s a question I''ll have to ask you," Rhea replied with a shrug and a meaningful smile. "Maybe you


    want to kidnap the boss to force him to tell you about your son''s whereabouts. After all, your grudge


    against the boss isn''t something new."


    "Rhea Moore, don''t talk out of your *ss! The boss''s disappearance puts everyone here in hot water! Do


    you think anyone can get away with it? Besides, I got injured trying to save him. Everyone saw it. If you


    want to throw dirt on me, at least have some evidence!" Mike eximed confidently.


    A bandage was still around his leg, and when he pushed his chair back, it exposed his injuries. Then


    he turned to look at the man on his side, "Rick, you saw that too, didn''t you?!"


    The sullen-faced man raised his eyelids and nced at Mikezily when thetter called him out.


    Although it was just a simple nce, it was enough to make the people around him feel his fierce aura.


    ‘He is no ordinary man,’ Lily thought as she held her pen.


    "When we arrived, you were alone." This sentence alone did not sound like Rick was taking any sides.


    It was apletely objective statement of fact. However, it did feel like he was pointing a finger at


    Mike.


    Rhea was startled for a while before a smile crept onto her face as if she was watching a show.


    Mike was not stunned for long before he quickly became annoyed. "What are you trying to say here?!


    Are you suspecting me as well?!"


    He pointed to himself and argued with gritted teeth. He put his leg on his chair, and due to his


    significant movement, the white bandage slowly turned red.


    He gritted his teeth again and spat, "I got injured to save the boss. Now, you''re standing here and


    doubting my motive, one after another. Let me ask you something, then, what were you all doing at that


    time?!"


    He immediately changed the subject and threw the question directly back at them.


    There was an instant silence.


    Mike was dissatisfied. He turned to look at Rhea and said, "Rhea, you''ve been by the boss''s side


    recently. You don''t have any projects, nor did the boss let you work outside. So tell me, where were


    you, and what were you doing?"


    With the situation suddenly reversed, she frowned. "I was sleeping!"

    "Who can prove that?"


    "I…" Herplexion changed. "Everyone here works alone, so I was sleeping alone. Who else can


    prove my alibi?! Since you want proof, I''d like to ask what she was doing at that time?!"


    In a blink of an eye, she threw the question to Lily.


    Lily stopped spinning her pen and slowly raised her head. She seemed a little dazed when everyone


    looked at her before returning to her senses. She looked at them innocently and said, "Me? I was


    experimenting."


    "Heh, who can prove that?!" Rhea sneered and continued, "I''ve already asked around. No one was in


    theb at that time."
