King’s Awakening - Chapter 419
Chapter 419: Chapter 419: Who is framing Sana Robert?
Looking at the bug in White Mitchell’s hand, Sana suddenly felt a chill down her spine, a sense of creepy unease marauded her heart.
However, what White said next made Sana even more terrified.
“These two bugs come from two different companies, one from ‘Falcon Domain’, the other from ‘DeY Territory’, they are both extremely sophisticated, not something an average person could acquire,” White explained.
“You mean there is more than one person who planted the bugs?” Sana quickly understood what White intended, immediately conjuring up figures of her cousins, Caleb and Lincoln Robert.
If anyone was out to get her at the moment, it was not her business rivals, but her own cousins!
They were afraid that once I took over the Robert Group, it would end up in the hands of outsiders, thus affecting their positions within the group.
So, they have been plotting to eliminate me, while my grandfather is ill.
Still, I’ve always been on guard, when could they have placed the bugs without me noticing?
While Sana was lost in thought, White paced around her office.
After a cursory glance at the files in Sana’s office, White found nothing potentially harmful to her.
But this was off, knowing the accusers had set someone to go to the Northern Territory Command to denounce her, it was impossible that they did nothing else.
Thinking of this, White turned to Sana and asked, “Do you have a safe or something similar here?”
A safe?
Sana paused for a moment, then instinctively replied, “Yes, I have one. What do you need it for?”
“Just open it for me to take a look. We might find a clue after checking,” White simply said.
Sana didn’t understand White’s intention, but she opened the bookshelf in her office as instructed, revealing a hidden compartment, and behind it, the safe.
“My grandfather set up this safe. I haven’t opened it much, and right now, it only holds some contracts with our agencies,” Sana opened the safe while speaking.
However, the moment the safe opened, Sana’s eyebrows knitted together tightly.
Inside the safe was an additional pistol, and a stack of English documents.
This…
Seeing this, Sana’s face blanched. She quickly clarified, “These items are not mine, certainly not my grandfather’s. They weren’t there the last time I opened the safe!”
Shush!
White hushed her again, quickly securing the pistol and the stack of English documents.
“It’s not up to you to decide if they are yours or not, and my word won’t convince them. With these items here, there won’t be a chance to explain,” White stated.
At the same time, White quickly scanned the documents.
They detailed a partnership between Sana and a foreign mercenary organization, complete with her private seal.
If these documents fell into the War Department’s hands, Sana would undoubtedly be detained, regardless of her involvement.
Once Sana was taken into custody, those trying to target her would seize the opportunity to tear the Robert Group apart.
Alas, even if Sana could return safely, the Robert Group would be completely different.
The strategy wasn’t ingenious, but it was effective.
The opponents assumed the White War Department’s thoroughness in the lockdown would lead to a strict investigation, thus carefully plotting this act.
“So, what should I do now? Someone must have denounced me already!” Sana said, her brows furrowed. It wasn’t hard for her to figure things out at this point.
White’s sudden presence at the Robert Group must be because he knew someone was going to stab her in the back.
Realizing this, Sana started to feel frantic.
Upon hearing her, White responded calmly, “It’s fine. Now that I’m here, things won’t go their way. We can use this opportunity to expose everyone plotting against you.”
Those who want to target me?
Sana chuckled grimly, those who wanted to target her was hardly a secret, the higher-ups in the Robert Group knew it well.
However, Caleb and Lincoln always act covertly, finding evidence would not be simple.
Suddenly, an idea struck Sana. With furious indignation, she said, “Neither the bugs nor the secret of the safe could have been managed by regular people. There’s no way Caleb and Lincoln could manage such a task.
Only my grandfather’s secretary could achieve this!
I’ll confront her directly. If she confesses about Caleb and Lincoln’s intentions, we would have evidence against them, and they can’t escape!”
On hearing her, White shook his head and prevented Sana from carrying out her plan.
“It’s futile. Wouldn’t our opponents expect you to do that? I’m afraid that your grandfather’s secretary is a sacrificial piece destined to be discarded. I bet if you expose her today, she won’t live to see tomorrow’s sun,” White said calmly.
He’d seen this kind of frame-up before. If Sana acted rashly, she’d only cut off our own escape route.
“So, what should I do now!?” Sana blurted out in desperation.
White hesitated for a moment, then responded, “Don’t rush, we just wait.”
“Wait!?” Sana didn’t understand and blurted, “Wait for The Patrol to come and arrest me!?”
Without addressing her query, White called Black Turtle and asked him to send a team over.
Looking at White’s mysterious demeanor, Sana was close to shedding tears, not that she didn’t trust White. But even White had admitted, if they dared target her this openly, they had to be well-prepared.
How could I turn the tide?
During Sana’s mental turmoil, a commotion arose outside her office.
A haughty voice shouted, “Who the hell just attacked my White Horse Club men?! Step out and let me see, I want to know who’s so blind!
Who am I? I’m Thomas!
What? All the bravado earlier, and now you’re hiding like a turtle!?”
Hearing this, Sana’s heart pounded even more chaotically. Just as she resolved to stop White from acting impetuously, he had already opened the office door and strode out into the hall…
