Chapter 639

“Anyone with eyes saw what happened to Dennis and his two supporters. Do I need to spell it out for you?”
“Does anyone else want to leave? Now is your chance.”
The man who had stood up was left speechless, his face a kaleidoscope of colors.
The others who had been ready to protest fell silent.
The conference room was dead quiet.
“No one? Good. Since you’re staying, you will follow my orders. I can overlook the past, but if anyone causes trouble from now on, don’t expect me to be lenient.”
“Meeting adjourned.”
Anastasia stood and left the room.
Logan and Marcus gathered the laptops and followed her, one looking stern and professional, the other strolling with a casual air.
The remaining researchers exchanged complicated looks.
One of them couldn’t help but stare at the two “assistants” trailing Anastasia.
“Ms. Sterling is truly remarkable. We underestimated her. Even her assistants are extraordinary men,” someone said admiringly.
“Wait, I feel like
“What?”
“Nothing.” The person hesitated. “It’s just that one of the assistants looks familiar.
A bit like the heir to the Jackson family in Riverton
“Haha, you must be mistaken. Why would the heir to the Jackson family be working as an assistant here? Besides, isn’t Mr. Jackson disabled?”
“You’re right.”
“When did you ever see the heir to the Jackson family anyway?”

Logan and Anastasia, walking ahead, said nothing.
But…
Marcus rubbed his chin, thinking that if people still didn’t know his legs had healed, his secrecy must be working.
Harrison would be returning to Riverton soon, and he would have to go back as well.
At the thought, a shadow passed over his usually smiling eyes.
“Where’s Dennis?” Anastasia asked a bodyguard.
He led her to a break room.
Since Anastasia suspected Dennis of embezzlement, they couldn’t let him go before the police arrived.
“I have some questions for him,” Anastasia said.
Logan nodded. He and the others closed the door behind her, standing guard outside.
Seeing Anastasia, Dennis, like a caged animal, sneered. “What, you regret it already? Come to beg me?”
“You’re dreaming,” Anastasia said bluntly ignoring his foul expressio “Tell me who told you not to give me the Uling herb?
Dennis’s face flickered.
Anastasia, watching him closely, didn’t miss it. She knew she was right.
On the surface, it seemed Dennis was acting out of loyalty to Lauren. But that didn’t add up. A self-serving person like Dennis had only sided With
