Chapter 1913 Handle
Rochelle was urgently rushed to the hospital.
Rochelle passed out. Paul wasn't so lucky.
It seemed he couldn't accept the fact that he had caused the death of his unborn child with a kick.
He began shaking his head like a madman, muttering to himself, “Impossible... How could this be?”
However, the law would not refrain from sanctioning someone just because they were mentally
unstable.
Elisa had had enough of their dog-eat-dog situation. She was bored, so she asked the police to state
their purpose.
“Good day, Mr. Paul Grayson. Ms. Elisa Benett has filed a police report today, demanding a thorough
investigation into the truth behind her fall into the water. After a preliminary investigation, you and Ms.
Rochelle are considered suspects. We now require you to come back to the station for questioning.”
Paul didn't respond. Instead, he kept asking incredulously, “How could this be possible?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe police, following protocol, took him into custody.
In that state of utter disarray, Paul was led away in handcuffs.
Everyone was taken aback to discover that Paul was audacious enough to have orchestrated Elisa's
fall into the water.
At that moment, they felt cold, as if trapped in an ice cellar, with chills traveling down their spines.
They quietly waited for Elisa to announce her punishment for them.
Elisa rubbed her temples and spoke. “Everyone, let's call it a day for today's shareholders meeting. I'm
tired. I have a few announcements to make. Bella will be promoted to deputy CEO. Carol Leon, Rosie
Nelson, and Herbert Koch will be dismissed. Any objections?”
Though it was said to be a discussion, Elisa's attitude was far from it.
She was clearly implying that anyone who objected would be dismissed as well.
Even though half of the people there had been laid off, no one dared to object.
Even those who had been fired needed to continue to mingle in that circle.
It would be unwise to unnecessarily offend Elisa as that would be the real foolishness.
The person who got fired cursed their own bad luck.
The others who weren't fired breathed a sigh of relief as if the weight in their hearts had been lifted.
Elisa watched their reactions but didn't say anything, merely feeling that human nature was despicable.
Even though they were in the same boat before and had joined forces to oppose her, before anything
even started, they began to fight amongst themselves.
Next came the act of scapegoating.
Those who were fired were clearly on Paul's side from the very beginning.
After dealing with all those matters, Elisa felt a wave of exhaustion. She handed over the remaining
tasks to Bella and left with Gareth.
Seeing Elisa leave, everyone in the meeting room finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The corner of Bella's mouth curled up in a mocking smile. These people can't possibly think that Elisa
would forgive betrayal, can they? The thing Elisa despises the most is betrayal, so these people are

dealt with immediately. The plan is to proceed slowly, as drastic actions may shake the very foundation
of Benett Corporation. However, given Elisa's personality and methods, these people won't be staying
for long.
After leaving the conference room, Elisa seemed a bit downcast.
Among those people, there was no lack of her former right-hand men who had been of great
assistance, but all of that was in the past now.
Gareth stood next to Elisa, not uttering a single word because he knew very well what Elisa needed
was not comfort.
Instead, it was time to adapt and get used to the changes.
Indeed, a lot had happened recently, so It was necessary for her to take some time to relax.
“Shall I take you home?”
Elisa nodded and added, “Let's walk. I feel like taking a stroll.”
Naturally, Gareth had no objections.
The two of them, one tall and one short, walked on the road.
