Chapter: 1324

With a room of seven people, the conference room seemed massive. At first glance, it would appear as though Rachel and Andy were here for a deposition.

For a moment, everyone sat in silence. Kent took the time to size

Rachel up and ended up admiring her a bit for her calmness.

He recalled some of their previous visits to other companies and how the people in charge would either be too hospitable or too nervous whenever they met with the investigation team.

"You must be wondering why we paid you a visit today, Miss Bennet."

Kent, on the other hand, had a ready-made list of excuses.

He never had the opportunity to lay them out, however.

"Mr. Bates and everyone else, thank you very much." Rachel put her pen down gently, displaying a completely different demeanor from
