Chapter 583: Chapter 583: Who is the Traitor?_1
“I’ve got sothing that ca up at the last minute, so I might et with the client a bit later.”
Inside Five-state International Building, Itai Huntington sat in her office chair, eyeing the bodyguards in front of her, all ready to go.
These were her close confidants.
The most reliable people.
But now, there was a mole among them.
“Boss, what happened?”
Soone asked aloud.
“Nothing much, just decided to leave later on a whim.”
Itai Huntington glanced at the bodyguard who had spoken, asking, “Do you have a problem with that?”
“No! How could we possibly have any problems with your decisions, boss.”
The man looked a bit flustered as he bowed his head, deliberately avoiding Itai Huntington’s gaze.
“By the way, I have sothing to tell you all.”
Itai Huntington said coldly, “Everyone, lift your heads!”
At her shout, all the bodyguards lifted their heads in unison, staring at the notorious widow of Gonzalez City.
Kong, with his hands clasped behind his back, stood behind Itai Huntington, radiating a murderous aura.
“Among you, there is a traitor.”
Itai Huntington slowly opened a drawer and took out a box of hidden weapons.
This was a secret everyone was aware of.
But at tis like this, reaching for the box of hidden weapons while saying such things took on a completely different significance.
“Who is it!”
Everyone looked at each other, trying to read the answer in each other’s eyes.
“As to who, I have a good idea. But I want to give you all a chance to co forward and own up. I can be lenient if you do.”
Itai Huntington swept her gaze over the security personnel, saying indifferently, “You have one minute.”
After that, she flicked off the safety catch of the box of hidden weapons.
“Who! The boss has been good to us, who would do such a despicable thing!”
“If you’re a man, co forward and admit it! If I find out who it is, I’ll be the first to chop him up!”
“Still not stepping forward? Do you think you can get lucky? The boss keeps her word; she will definitely be lenient. Hurry up and confess!”
The office was suddenly ablaze with noise.
Everyone looked at each other angrily, but none knew who the real mole was.
Suspicion, distrust, and anger filled the entire office.
“Alright, ti’s up.”
Itai Huntington looked at her watch and said with a smile, “No more chances.”
“Boss, just kill that person right away!”
“Right! Such a traitor shouldn’t be allowed to live!”
“Kill!”
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation, giving off the impression that none of them were the traitor.
“One by one, tell , during the ti I sent soone to fetch Julius Reed, where were each of you?”
Itai Huntington leaned back and watched the bodyguards in front of her with a cold gaze.
“I was by your side the whole ti.”
“So was I!”
“I took a break to use the restroom.”
“I was responsible for picking up Mr. Reed.”
…
One after another, they made statents, all with evidence to clear themselves of suspicion.
“So you’re all saying that you’re innocent, is that it?”
Itai Huntington looked at her employees, each claiming to be innocent, and said to Kong, “Take them out one by one for interrogation. If they don’t co clean, they shall all be severely punished!”
“Yes!”
Kong let out a cold laugh, cracking his knuckles with a ka-ka sound as he moved behind the bodyguards.
“Boss, I noticed that Bode Sorset was acting suspiciously today!”
Just then, the bodyguard Gao Le stood up and pointed at Bode Sorset, “You were in charge of picking up Mr. Reed. You were acting suspiciously when you left; there must be a problem!”
“Bullshit! My loyalty is clear for all to see!”
Bode Sorset slapped his chest and knelt directly in front of Itai Huntington, “Miss, I’ve never done anything to betray you!”
“Miss, when you said there was a problem earlier, Bode Sorset was the first to step forward and ask why we didn’t leave on ti!”
With a cold smirk, Gao Le pointed at Bode Sorset kneeling on the ground, “And during that ti, I’ve been watching him. His eyes are shifty; he’s clearly got a guilty conscience!”
“You dare fra !”
Bode Sorset suddenly stood up from the ground, looking as if he was about to confront Gao Le violently.
“Everyone shut up!”
King Kong roared in anger and directly picked up the two n, “Today, we’re going to clear things up!”
“Miss, I am innocent! I went to pick up Mr. Reed as ordered, but after finding no one, I called you imdiately.”
Kneeling on the ground, Bode Sorset pleaded with a wronged face, “I can die, but I can’t suffer this injustice!”
“Bode Sorset, I also noticed sothing off about you.”
Itai Huntington sat in her chair, fiddling with the hidden weapons box in her hand, “Tell , did you do it or not?”
“No!”
Bode Sorset said decisively.
“Boss, if he sent a tip-off, there might be call logs or text ssages on his phone. Shall we check his phone?”
Gao Le chid in from the side.
“Good! Dig out his phone!”
Itai Huntington nodded, and King Kong imdiately retrieved Bode Sorset’s phone, unlocked it with his finger, and placed it in front of Itai Huntington.
“Explain this, what is this?”
After glancing at the text ssages, Itai Huntington slid the phone across the table, pushing it in front of everyone, “The ti, just one minute after I gave the order.”
“I am frad!”
After seeing the text ssages, Bode Sorset’s eyes widened, and he slumped to the ground.
“Humph! Bode Sorset, you backstabbing scum, now the evidence is right in front of your eyes, and you still want to deny it?”
Gao Le said with a smug look on his face, “I noticed sothing off about this guy long ago, he’s been spending money like water, where did you get all that money from!”
“Gao Le. Even if I turn into a ghost, I won’t let you go! That money, it ca from a distant relative who died, he had no heirs, and I inherited it! How dare you slander !”
Bode Sorset glared at Gao Le angrily, his body shaking uncontrollably.
“Take him down!”
Itai Huntington suddenly slamd the table.
“Congratulations, boss, on removing a traitor…”
Gao Le didn’t finish his sentence before King Kong picked him up.
“Boss… what’s going on?”
He looked bewildered.
Wasn’t Bode Sorset the one to be arrested, why was he being picked up?
“Gao Le. You’re very clever!”
Itai Huntington stood up from her chair and walked slowly over to Gao Le, saying faintly, “It must have been hard for you, observing so carefully.”
“Miss, I don’t understand what you an!”
In panic, Gao Le said, “All the evidence points to Bode Sorset, why are you arresting ?”
He looked at Bode Sorset, who actually had a smile on his face.
“Sorry, the texts on my phone weren’t sent by . At that ti, my phone was in the resting room. But after noticing sothing was wrong, the boss told not to make a fuss, so I put on a show of injuring myself to lure you out!”
Bode Sorset stood up and walked over to Gao Le, “Nobody else knew about the text ssages. The boss led you down that path, and your guilty conscience made you anxious for my demise, instantly revealing your true identity.”
“You…”
Gao Le’s face turned pale as he looked at Itai Huntington, “Miss, I was wrong! I beg you, please give a…”
Crack!
King Kong twisted forcefully.
Gao Le died like a lump of mud.
“Let’s go, change of plans!”
Itai Huntington put the hidden weapons box back in her handbag.
