Chapter 888
Chapter 891:
Bart clenched his fists.
It turned out that the acquisition of the Karen Steel Company was just a cover. Candice’s real target was him! Even if he wanted to stop it, it was too late.
On the screen, Bart was seen conversing and exchanging papers with an unidentified man. It was a surveillance video with audio, and although the audio was unclear, they heard Bart mention “Fake Horse Bidding.”
At this moment, the camera suddenly zoomed in. It revealed Bart’s accomplice to be one of the lawyers linked to the Fake Horse Bidding.
The evidence was revealed on the spot. It went without saying that the Fake Horse Bidding incident from that time had nearly ensnared the Royal Garden Corporation. It was indisputable that Bart had engaged in deceitful tactics.
Anson and Boden were left stunned, exchanging glances of disbelief. Meanwhile, the other directors engaged in hushed conversations and whispered discussions among themselves.
“Unbelievable! Our own people betrayed us?”
“Even though I can’t hear it clearly, it’s evident that the matter is far from simple. Even a fool could discern that.”
“I never anticipated that Mr. Glyn would engage in such actions.”
“Keep your voice down. Let’s see what Mr. Lopez says. His mother is here too. It’s not our place to speak.”
“Yes. Let’s sit tight.”
With one hand supporting his chin, Milton looked at Candice thoughtfully. It was interesting! It was getting more and more interesting!
Candice feigned surprise. “Apologies, I played the wrong video. This is an ongoing investigation. No conclusion yet.” She pretended to switch the screens in a hurry.
However, the screen abruptly shifted to the scene that took place on the high steps in front of the door during the ambassador’s wife’s birthday party.
The setting was partially concealed, revealing signs of interference. Two figures were visible in conversation just outside the Gold Well Hotel’s banquet hall. It was easy for the gathered spectators to identify them as Erica and Candice. Confusion was written all over their faces. Anson and Boden stole a glance at Erica, clueless about the unfolding situation.

Suddenly, Milton’s posture stiffened. He had poured over this surveillance footage countless times before, yet the present scene felt different.
Meanwhile, Bart’s eyes narrowed as his grip tightened around his pen.
A puzzled look marked Erica’s face as she stared at the large screen. She was desperate to uncover the events that happened during the birthday party of the ambassador’s wife.
Bettina held her breath, aware that Candice had managed to retrieve the missing twenty seconds from the video.
In the video, Erica appeared in distress, shaking her head and stepping back, her hands clasping her temples. She looked as if she was in unbearable agony, about to collapse. Candice attempted to steady Erica but was brushed off. Candice then made to leave, preparing to descend the rain-soaked steps.
