Chapter 91 Recanting Testimony 

Tignored Lily and instead looked dinctly of Luca, who was standing behind her

What are you doing here?” 

The two families had almost torn each other apart, and both sides were well aware of each other’s cards. Yet, he still had the nerve to come to the company

Lura shrugged nonchalantly. Well, with all the bases the Harman Group is facing and Leonard not being in the best of health, as his brother, it’s only natural that 1 step into help.” 

Then, he added, There’s no need to get upset. Mr. Harmon approved it. Or do you want to call him yourself?” 

I didn’t know what kind of deal an had struck with them, but if Luca dared to say this, it was likely true

Liy stepped forward again, blocking my view

Eva, I’m talking to you.” 

And who are you to speak to me, Ms. Jane?” 

Her personnelle still listed her as an assistant, and a junior one at that, with almost no real power. The only leverage she had was the child in her womb

My gaze fell on her lower abdomen, and she instinctively covered her belly, taking a couple of steps back. It seemed she really was pregnant

I’m Leo’s senior assistant and soon to be promoted. From now on, my words are Lea’s words, and you’ll have to listen to me!” 

She leaned in closer, her voice dropping to a whisper only the two of us could hear Lan said prenatal education is crucial. I need to be at the company since I’m carrying Leo’s only heir. The entire Harmon Group will belong to my child.” 

*Well, I wish you the best in making that dream come true,I said

I smiled at her and then pulled Emma away with me

It was ridiculous that Lily was acting so smug when all she had was a fertilized egg. Three years might seem like a long time, but if Leonard recuperated, he could father 30 children In a year if he wanted. There would be plenty of people vying for control of the Harmon Group then

Eva, are you okay?Emma asked, her face full of concern

Inodded 

Let’s get back to work. This kind of thing doesn’t bother me, and I don’t care either,I said 

I kept telling myself not to care, and surprisingly, it worked. 1 wasn’t angry anymore

e married, maybe I wouldn’t have had a recurrence. Now, ignored anything and 

The doctor had said that my iness was kely caused by stress. 11 had been happy after getting r ane that made me angry. Maybe that way, I could live a bit longer 

During lunch break, I had planned to take a nap in my office, but an unexpected visitor showed up

The young policewoman often saw at the station had changed into casual clothes and stood at my office door, waving a me 

1hurried over officer, what brings you here?! 

She handed me her business card 

just call me Penelope, or Officer Crowe. Eva, it’s your hunch break, right? There’s something to discuss with you,she said

I glanced behind her, noting that she hadn’t brought any other officers with her. It struck me as odd

She quickly explained, I’m here in a personal capacity. You can refuse if you want 

I smiled and shook my head Let me treat you to lunch. There’s a nice restaurant ass the street” 

Given how she had spoken up for me and offered me advice at the police station, I couldn’t refuse bec 

But I never expected her to reveal such ashocking secret

Memphis, from your company, recanted his testimony today. He claimed that everything he did wasn’t under Lily’s orders. He said he were out of diske for you as a leader and that he falsely accused Lily because he thought it would help him and punishment.” 

Penelope wasn’t eating much. She was sipping on juice

He said the money he received came from a foreign company that wanted to steal the Harmon Group’s designs. Since it wasn’t from the same country, he sold the designs. Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to trace any further leads.” 

I wasn’t too surprised by this. I had said he’d take care of it, so of course, Lily wouldn’t be left with any incriminating evidence. But it was what Penelope said next that shocked 

And then there’s Simon. He committed suicide this morning

ent. He claimed that kidnapping 

ing Vera was his own idea and that he was the one 

Last night, he suddenly said he wanted to confess something to the police. Treviewed his statement. who pushed her down the stairs. The forensic team found his skin tissue under Vera’s fingeraik 

But that doesn’t prove he was at the scene at the time. It could have been from an earlier struggle between the two,” 

Even though I knew this was fan’s doing, the fact that a life had been lost still sent chills down my spine

Penelope nodded. There are so many suspicious points, but with him dead.” 

What about his daughter?! 

Temembered that he and Loy had a daughter

Penelope looked at me with some frustration. She’s been taken in by relatives. But when the relatives arrived, we got the sense that they wouldn’t treat her well

But I heard a charity organization donated money for the gel. It should be enough to support her through college.” 

Her eyes were locked onto mine. Eva, do you know what’s going on?! 

Chapter 91 Recanting Testimony 

Although it was a question, her tone made it clear she knew I was involved

I lowered my gaze, avoiding her eyes, and simply shook my head. Sorry, I don’t know.” 

She seemed to have expected this answer and didn’t press further. Before she left, we exchanged phone numbers and WhatsApp contacts

Eva, I know things aren’t easy for you. You’re a good person. If you remember anything, don’t hesitate to contact me anytime, no matter how late.Facing her earnest gaze, I could only nod, feeling guilty
