Chapter 28 Someone Is Eavesdropping 

I suddenly laughed at myself. At this point, I even thought about turning back, while Oswald started transferring our assets. I didn’t realize how st* pid I was! 

I was just a fool. Eleanor was right. Oswald was going to sell me out, and I wanted to help him. I didn’t even know who that woman was, or how cunning Oswald could be. 

But honestly, who that woman was didn’t seem that important to me anymore. I was just curious. For anyone who experiences such events, they would obsess and find out who they lost to. But the truth was, no matter who she was, I lost. 

I directly told Eleanor. “What I really want to know is where my money went.” 

“I’ve had someone look into it. Don’t worry!” Eleanor confidently said. 

After the conversation, I returned to the company. I had to figure out how to reclaim the company I built. I would expose Oswald’s true colors. That was my only wish at the moment. 

I was in the company. No one paid attention to when I left and when I returned. I was their boss, which was an undeniable fact. 

It was almost noon. Everyone was waiting to go to lunch on time. During this time, we gathered together and chatted. 

I wanted to ask Oswald what he would have for lunch. I turned and went straight to his office. The secretary at the door was absent, and the door was half open. I could hear voices inside, indicating that Oswald was in his office.

Just as I was about to push the door open, I heard Orlando’s voice from inside. 

“Don’t worry about that. I showed her the information prepared according to your requirements. Mr. Price, you are truly brilliant. But to be honest, Mrs. Price doesn’t seem to be interested. She doesn’t spend much time at the company. In my opinion, she just pretends to work to supervise you.” After Orlando finished speaking, he chuckled sarcastically. “And as for the money, I’ve taken care of it as per your orders!” 

My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly hid, afraid they would see me. Obviously, they were talking about me 

“Make sure to instruct the finance department. We need consistent statements. I don’t want any unnecessary complications,” Oswald commanded Orlando. “She is sensitive and always challenges me recently.” 

“Don’t worry about the finance department. I’ve handled both sets of account books and communicated with the suppliers. You can relax! If needed, we can just come up with a reason later, saying the project went wrong and we lost money. A small setback in business is no big deal. At that time, you just have to cooperate and put on a show of being heartbroken. What can she do? After all these years of not working, it’ll be hard for her to investigate.” Orlando’s tone was full of confidence. 

I was furious, and my nails dug into my palm. I didn’t expect Orlando to be so cunning.

“Be cautious. I haven’t figured out my next move yet…” Oswald broke off in the middle of a sentence, but I understood what he wanted to say next. 

“Well, Mr. Price. Should I handle that party as well?” Orlando asked again. 

“I can’t show my face, so keep an eye on it! Neither of them are easy to deal with!” Oswald muttered and sighed heavily. “You can leave now!”

I quickly left the scene 

Back in my office, my heart was still pounding. I steadied myself and picked up the phone to dial Oswald’s extension. I casually asked, “Darling, what would you like for lunch? I’m in the office.” 

“Oh, you’re in the office?” Oswald’s voice was gentle. “What do you want to eat? How about we go out?” 

“Sounds good!” I happily agreed. “I’ll come find you!” 

In the hallway, I met Orlando. He was startled, clearly thinking I wasn’t in the office. “Mrs. Price!” 

I gave him a wicked smile and tensed. “Did you do anything evil? Why are you so flustered?” 

“Huh? No!” Orlando quickly retorted, “I thought you weren’t in the office!” 

“I just came back!” I stopped teasing him. “Would you like to go have lunch with Oswald and me?” 

“Don’t mind me. I don’t want to be a third wheel. You and Mr. Price are so loving. I don’t want to disturb you!” Orlando flattered with a servile smile. 

We went to a spicy restaurant on the street opposite the building. I liked the dishes there. 

While waiting for the dishes, Oswald asked me, “What did you do this. morning?” 

“I went to see houses!” I said seriously. Then I asked Oswald, “Darling, when will the money be returned?”
