NOVPUBChapter 1101: 506 Backstab_3 Chapter 1101: 506 Backstab_3 The man led her upstairs.
Inside the elevator, Bria Alvarez looked at the cold figure of the man in front of her, her hand tightening on her bag unconsciously.
For some reason, her heart suddenly accelerated, as if she was about to face a fierce deluge.
The elevator doors opened directly to the top floor Presidential Suite.
The first thing that caught Bria’s eye were the four tall, dark-suited bodyguards who looked brave and majestic, not to be trifled with.
The bodyguards were well-trained, their gaze steady, guarding the owner of the room like door gods.
When her gaze landed on the badge on one of the men’s arms, her pupils suddenly shrank.
...
Bria had been all over the place in recent years, and the insignia of the bodyguard was something she seemed to have seen somewhere…
The man gently knocked on the door of the room: “I’ve brought the person.”
“Come in.” A deep, magnetic male voice echoed from inside the room.
Bria took a deep breath and stepped inside.
The man was sitting on the living room sofa, his long legs lazily crossed, playing with a tablet in his hand, his head hanging slightly, looking both languid and casual.
The man pointed to the opposite side, “Sit.”
Although his tone was gentle, it made Bria unconsciously nervous.
She carefully sat down facing him on the sofa.
Only then did she dare to steal a glance.
Once she looked, she was taken aback.
Lostswa was a place where many talents were hidden, and she’d met many celebrities and rich young men.
But compared to the man in front of her, they all seemed so vulgar.
He had a clear-cut brow and a graceful temperament, measured and elegant in every movement, like a nobleman from a prestigious family.
When the man’s pair of pitch-black eyes looked at her, it was as if she’d fallen into hell…
“You…
You’re not Manager Wood?”
Bria was not a person without experience, in situations like these, boldness was the key to gaining respect.
The man nodded: “My last name is Rinto.”
Rinto?
A light flashed in Bria’s mind and she suddenly gasped.
Could he be Agave Rinto of the Rans from Pethkids?
Were the Rintos planning to infiltrate Lostswa now too?
In the blink of an eye, thousands of thoughts flashed through Bria’s mind, but in an instant, she put on an easy and composed smile.
“So, it’s Master McKay.
I’ve heard much about you.”
Agave Rinto threw something onto the coffee table, “Take a look.”
It was a file bag.
As Bria read on, her shock intensified, and at the end, her hands were trembling.
“Master McKay…
I…
I was forced to do this.
If I didn’t cooperate with him, he would join forces with my competitors to squeeze me out.
I had no choice but to…”
Sometimes silence is better.
Bria suddenly went quiet and knelt on the floor with a thud.
“Please give me another chance, Master McKay.”
“Didn’t you buy a flight ticket to leave the country this afternoon?
You’re planning to leave this mess behind and let me deal with it?”
The man’s voice was soft and cold, devoid of emotion, hence all the more fearsome.
Bria knelt truthfully on the floor, “Master McKay, I was wrong.
I know you won’t believe any of my explanations, but please give me another chance.”
Agave Rinto suddenly felt bored, he glanced at Finnian Moore.
Finnian Moore took a step forward and asked, “Ms.
Alvarez, are you familiar with Vivian Hayes?”
Bria was startled, wondering why the subject had suddenly switched to Vivian Hayes, wasn’t she Marcellus Dankworth’s mistress?
“Vivian Hayes instructed someone to poison Ms.
Rinto backstage at the Spring Festival Gala, and the novel Ice D they used was actually developed by the Tiernan Company.
If it weren’t for Ms.
Rinto’s wisdom and preemptive measures, do you know the serious consequences that could have happened?”
The more Bria listened, the more shocked she was, “How could such a thing happen?
If I knew, I would absolutely not let her do it.
Please believe me, Master McKay.”
Marcellus Dankworth couldn’t control his mistress, now she was in deep trouble because of him.
Some of her businesses had dealings with Pethkids, thus she had always paid special attention to the situation there.
The so-called Ms.
Rinto was Master McKay’s Auntie.
It was said that Master McKay cherished her a lot.
If something were to happen to her, she and Marcellus Dankworth would not be able to escape the consequences.
Tiffany Wood was right, Marcellus Dankworth, this scumbag, was bound to be ruined by a woman sooner or later.
“Master McKay, I built my business from nothing.
It’s more important to me than my own life, why would I ruin it?
Marcellus Dankworth came to me one day, saying he wanted to collaborate on pharmaceutical export trade.
With the Dankworth family’s backing, I naively trusted him.
But he stabbed me in the back and threatened me with this, saying if I didn’t cooperate with him, he’d report me.
I was forced onto his ship out of desperation, these past years I have not been able to overcome the guilt.
Although I cooperated with him on the surface, I secretly gathered evidence against him.
I was just waiting for the right time to have him face the legal consequences.
Master McKay, I truly didn’t bear any resentment to harm Ms.
Rinto, please believe me.”
The room fell silent, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
