Chapter 1186 No Proof Pointing Directly to Her
At once, Nicholas caught his hesitation and asked, “What do you have?” “I had suspected that someone had incited these companies, so I even deliberately checked their connection but didn’t find anything suspicious. But now that you mention it, I realized they more or less have a partnership with Muller Group,” Edward pointed out, causing Nicholas’ countenance to turn awful. “How is Muller Group in this again? Did you scrutinize it? How much of this is Muller Group’s work?”
“It has only hit me just now. I haven’t been able to investigate that yet. I thought it could just be a coincidence or unintentional.” Edward looked toward his boss, who objected, “The most coincidental incidents are normally the most intentional. Someone must be behind this.”
“Shall I investigate Muller Group then?” Edward asked cautiously. To that, Nicholas nodded. “In the meantime, also find out what Wanda has been up to lately.”
Surprised, Edward asked, “You suspect she’s behind this, President Sawyer?”
“You’ll know once you dig into it.” Nicholas glanced icily at Edward, who nodded in acknowledgment and left.
That said, he was doubtful. After all, Wanda already had her plate full with Muller Group’s current situation. Will she even have the time to devise a scheme?
Very quickly, the results of Wanda’s itinerary were out, and Edward returned to Nicholas’ office to report the findings. “President. Wanda has been salvaging the company’s losses these days. It doesn’t look like she has the time to attack Reinhart Group.”
Nicholas frowned in response. Have I gotten it wrong?
But the inchoate thought was dismissed at once, for he believed that it couldn’t be so coincidental. He must’ve missed out on something.
“Tell me everything Wanda has done lately.”
“Yes, sir.” Edward nodded and read out her itinerary when Kieran so coincidentally came in.
He quirked a brow in bewilderment, then looked strangely at his brother. “Dude, what’s going on? Why have you suddenly taken an interest in Wanda? Are you not worried your beloved wife will get upset?”
“Don’t bullsh*t.” Nicholas shot him a glare and explained. “Many companies have been targeting Reinhart Group lately, and all of them more or less have a partnership with Muller Group.”
“So, you suspect Wanda’s behind the conspiracy.” Kieran frivolously sat on Nicholas’ desk while finishing his brother’s words.
Nicholas nodded in agreement, then said, “But Edward didn’t find any proof that points the incite directly toward Wanda. I suspect I’ve missed out something, so I have him read out the findings in detail.”
“You continue then, Edward. I’ll take note along with you,” Kieran said to Edward, who nodded and continued from where he had stopped.
However, even after Edward had read out all of Wanda’s itinerary, they still hadn’t found anything suspicious.
“President Sawyer, do you suppose that Miss Muller really has nothing to do with this?” the assistant thought out loud.
“That might not be the case,” Kieran suggested before Nicholas could say a thing. “It might have been a short while since Muller Group has shifted back, but the connections they have built up over time are far wider than you can dig up.”
“That’s right.” Nicholas strongly agreed. “Muller Group’s no small fry.”
By right, a common company would’ve gone downhill and even faced bankruptcy after experiencing such a major scandal. However, the Muller Group was still standing strong.
Finally, the epiphany struck Edward, and he frowned. “But we don’t have proof that Wanda is the instigator of Reinhart Group’s incident.”
“Now that’s where you’re wrong. Just because there isn’t proof, it doesn’t mean that she has nothing to do with it. Sometimes, someone like Wanda wouldn’t even have to do anything, and someone will voluntarily help her attack Timothy.”
