“Your plan had many flaws. It was foolish of Christina to have the audacity to use Flora Verba Group’s name to recruit temporary workers!” The expression in Lucian’s eyes was cold as glaciers, but fear actually lingered in his chest.
Although the scheme was full of loopholes, its primary focus was to achieve speedy results, If the one hundred thousand sets of goods had entered the market, it would’ve been meaningless to investigate and identify the culprit afterward.
It would be difficult to salvage the situation after the public’s opinion toward the company was tarnished. By then, regardless of how hard Flora Verba Group’s employees tried to explain themselves, the trust crisis wouldn’t be solved.
And as the company’s technical director, Roxanne’s reputation would be dragged through the mud after getting involved in that scandal.
“I had anticipated this day would come.” Once again, Elektra stopped crying. Despair was the greatest sorrow. At that point, she no longer knew how to face Lucian, Roxanne, her parents, or anything else.
Her expression suddenly took on an eerie calmness. She gazed at Lucian longingly, wanting to engrave his countenance in her mind.
“Lucian, I hope you don’t involve my parents and the Lane family in this matter. I’ll bear all the consequences.”
Immediately after she spoke, Lucian suddenly sensed something off in her tone. When he turned to look at Elektra, he noticed she was dashing out of the room at breakneck speed. What is she trying to do?
A terrifying suspicion flashed across Lucian’s mind, prompting him to give chase. However, he had clearly underestimated Elektra’s determination to die.
She really didn’t know how to deal with everything in her life anymore. The good impressions and wonderful perception that Lucian has of me must’ve ceased to exist. He must hate me now, right? Bitterness washed over her, filling every pore in her body.
At that instant, only a single thought remained in her mind. I’m going to leave this unbearable world. She bolted into the elevator, quickly closing the doors and heading to the top floor.
“Elektra, stop!” Lucian was already moving at an incredible speed. Unfortunately, when Elektra reached the elevator, the doors opened just in time for her to enter.
He watched helplessly as the elevator ascended. Pressing the button repeatedly, he hoped another elevator would arrive sooner. Lucian made it to the top floor of the building in less than fifteen seconds after Elektra did.
He noticed she was already standing on the railing and was one step away from committing a three-hundred-meter drop. Ultimately, she still yearned for him and hoped he could come after her. She felt relief wash over her and smiled faintly when she noticed he had indeed followed her to the rooftop.
“Don’t come any closer, Lucian! I wronged you and Roxanne. She’s, in fact, a perfect woman, and I can’t compare to her in every aspect.”
“Hurry up and get down from there! Do you think that’s the way to shoulder all the responsibilities? I won’t let you go to jail, but you must face your mistakes. What you’re doing is nothing more than running away from your problems. Do you think you can erase everything you’ve done by dying?”
Lucian narrowed his eyes, riveting his gaze on her while approaching her step by step. He tried to think of something that could calm Elektra down, but his anger couldn’t be quelled.
As he slowly approached Elektra, she shook her head and flashed him a miserable smile. “Lucian, I get what you’re saying. But I-I finally understand your feelings toward me now. Regrettably, I can no longer be your sister. I hope to end everything this way. The truth is, I’ve never wanted to be your sister. I’ve always loved you. Christina did threaten me, but I still had a choice. I was just too stubborn and unrepentant to do the right thing.”
Lucian was suddenly stumped. He stopped in his tracks as a conflicted expression spread across his face. Lucian could vaguely tell she harbored romantic feelings for him, but Roxanne had won his heart many years ago, even long before they were married.
I really cant understand this stupid story with so many loop hole that iam tired to point out, and with this stupid rich guy coming alone to investigate, rich but all of them work alone they work everything alone what world are they live? Planet of stupid and work alone?
