Chapter 406 The Spy

Looking at Abbot's expectant expression, Colin smiled, and said, "It's fake."

Abbot was speechless.

At the same time, Faye woke up from a nightmare and was covered in a cold sweat. She stared at the ceiling and gasped for breath. After a long while, she finally calmed down. Then, she looked out the window with an expression that she had just survived a disaster.

At that point, the sky in Cocanel was already showing signs of dawn, and the light of the sun was faintly penetrating through the clouds.

Faye stared out the window in a trance and completely lost her thought to sleep.

She dreamed of Fanny just now, and Emmett, who was covered in blood.

It was half past seven in the morning.

Faye was sitting in the living room and eating her breakfast when Galen called her suddenly.

Faye picked up the phone and answered the call by saying, "Hello, Galen."

She couldn't tell whether Galen's tone was happy or she was confused. Galen said, "Ms. Nash, Mr. Newell from Y5 suddenly turned himself in at the police station."

Faye was stunned when she heard her. She reached out for a tissue and wiped the corner of her mouth, "What?"

Galen continued, "It's just happened today. Just now, there was news about the president of Y5 turning himself in at the police station and admitting all the charges." Faye asked, "Are you sure?

Galen said firmly, "Yes, the police have also issued a statement to confirm it."

Faye found it suspicious but she didn't say much, "Well, okay. I got it."

Galen asked from the other end, "Is it time to ask Charlie to issue a written apology?"

Faye leaned on the seat and said, "Yes. Ask him to be more sincere."

Galen replied, "Understood."

After hanging up with Galen, Faye frowned.

She only met Edward yesterday, and she was very sure that Edward had absolutely no intention of turning himself in.

Edward even threatened her by saying, "When you take my career away, you take my life too."

How could someone like him, who loved money like his life and would do anything to keep a back door for himself, would turn himself in for no reason?

Seeing Faye's serious expression, Carlotta, who was sitting opposite her, pushed a small half glass of juice to her and said, "Is there something wrong in the office?"

Faye regained her senses and took a sip of the juice to ease Carlotta. She smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Carlotta said, "Remember to have a work-life balance."

Faye replied, "Um."

After Faye finished her sentence, she emptied the glass with the juice and put it on the dining table. She looked at Carlotta with a smile and said, "Carlotta, Jadon said that he has a class reunion on the weekend, and asked if you are free to accompany him."

Hearing Faye's words, Carlotta blushed immediately and said, "No...I'm not free."

Faye knew Carlotta's thoughts and concerns. She comforted her by saying, "It's just a usual class reunion."

Carlotta changed the topic and said, "Are you done with the food?"

Faye replied, "I'm done."

Carlotta stood up and cleared the dining table in hurry. She was walking back and forth in the kitchen.

Faye got up to help. After Carlotta put the tableware in the dishwasher, Faye said deliberately, "Carlotta, if you don't feel like going, I will help you turn down Jadon."

Carlotta was worried that Faye would have noticed something. Therefore, she didn't dare to look at her and responded, "Um."

Faye thought of the rhetoric Colin told her last night. She walked out of the kitchen while saying, "Jadon is such a poor thing. Even though he has a house, a car, and a successful career, he would still be mocked by his classmates in the class reunion every year."

Carlotta frowned behind Faye and asked, "Why did his classmates mock him?"

Faye turned around and said seriously, "I heard that he is being mocked for not having a girlfriend."

Carlotta whispered, "I thought that only the people in a small and remote town like us would be feudal. It turns out that big cities are like this too..."

Carlotta's words were heard by Faye, but she pretended she didn't hear them, and continued, "I'll call Jadon now and ask him to find another way. Initially, he thought that since he treated your leg, you would do him a favor."

Faye went to the dining table, picked up her mobile phone, and pretended to call Jadon while she was talking.

Seeing that, Carlotta walked forward hurriedly and grabbed Faye's hand. She said with an awkward expression, "I'll go."

Faye smiled and said, "Huh?"

Carlotta let go of Faye's hand, hesitantly rubbed on her apron, and said, "He treated my leg and offered me the free rehabilitation program. I should help him with this." Faye continued, "Carlotta, we all should move forward. I want you to be happy."

After coming out of Fennth Community, Faye drove to the office.

On the way, the uneasiness that Faye felt became stronger and stronger.

When the car arrived at the office, Faye picked up the mobile phone on the central control and sent a message to Lance, "Are you there yet? Did you see Emmett?" The message was sent, but Lance didn't reply.

After more than ten minutes, Faye kept away her phone and was about to open the door and got out of the car. Then, Lance sent a message back, "I feel like I am a fool." Faye replied, "What?"

Lance continued, "I was fooled by others."

Faye looked at Lance's inexplicable reply and was about to text back and asked what had happened.

But, Lance sent the third message, "Nylah is with Maxwell."
