Chapter 1147: Extremely Important

"Elias Hale, I actually kind of admired you before, but now I finally understand why Selina Sloan refuses to forgive you. If it were me, I wouldn’t forgive you either!" Melody Thorne stood up. "The air in here is awful, I’m going outside for a bit!"

Elias Hale’s face went very dark at Melody Thorne using Selina Sloan to throw at him, especially when he heard those few words "Selina Sloan."

"Bro, it seems Miss Thorne has a pretty big misunderstanding about me." Sandra Lane reached out to tug on Elias Hale’s sleeve, but he avoided her. "You stay here properly for now. In a bit I’ll take you to the hospital. I hope you won’t disappoint me again during this period. Just accept the doctor’s treatment properly!"

Sandra Lane clenched her hands. From last time she already knew that in front of Elias Hale she could only act weak; she couldn’t come across as too forceful, only then would he look at her like he used to.

"Okay, Bro, you go ahead. I’ll sit here and wait for you." Sandra Lane spoke very obediently.

"Mm."

"Let’s go, to the conference room." Jared Quinn stood up.

The spacious office was left with only Sandra Lane. Simon Sutton poured her a cup of coffee and then went out.

Sandra Lane stood up and glanced outside the office, then closed the door. After that she walked over to Jared Quinn’s computer and started searching through it, trying to find something, but didn’t find anything at all. Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a few images that had been printed out from the printer.

The light in her eyes turned bright and shiny. She slipped the few prints into her bag. These were exactly what she was looking for!

Melody Thorne stood in the hallway outside for a while. She didn’t believe at all that Sandra Lane would suddenly become so good; she was definitely up to something again. She took out her phone and sent Selina a message, telling her to be extra careful during this period!

When she went back into the office, Sandra Lane was sitting quietly.

"Jared, then we’ll settle it like that. I’ll be heading back to the country for a trip during this period." Elias Hale had already finished discussing matters with Jared Quinn.

"Alright."

"Bro, you’re done talking?" Sandra Lane immediately walked over with a smile. "Let’s go back. I’m afraid if I stay out too long my condition will flare up again. With the doctor watching over me, I’ll feel a bit safer."

"Let’s go."

"Finding it nice to look at?" Jared Quinn’s big hand pinched her little nose.

"No, I just feel like this Sandra has some other agenda. She’s definitely up to something again. Elias is really so stupid, he believes her every single time!"

"How come you’re so interested in other men’s business, hmm?" Jared Quinn wrapped an arm around her waist, his broad palm touching her back.

Melody Thorne swallowed and immediately pulled away from him. "You’re not allowed to think about that kind of thing in the office, you hear me?"

Jared Quinn stared at her with a half-smile. "Then what about at home?"

Melody Thorne: "..."

"Oh right, Timmy should’ve gone back by now, right? Let’s head back too." Melody Thorne stood up, wanting to take those printed pictures from before so she could keep studying them at home to see what other secrets were in them.

But... they were gone!

Every single one had vanished into thin air!

"Simon, did you put away the few pictures that were here?"

"No, I’ve been outside the whole time," Simon Sutton said. "They’re missing?"

Melody Thorne’s heart lurched. She immediately dialed Elias Hale’s number.

"Hello."

"Elias, where’s Sandra? Is she still with you right now? Don’t let her leave. She seems to have taken something from Jared Quinn’s office. That stuff is extremely important, it’s about weapon research!"
