The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 2140

"Whatever you're thinking, Mr. Salvador and Ms. Thompson thought of it long ago. They've had people stationed around the hospital for quite some time now. Even the nurse looking after your wife is one of theirs. They've kept everything under wraps for reasons you surely understand," Ralph said, his eyes flashing with sharp intent.

"Thank you... Thank you, Ms. Thompson. Thank you, Mr. Salvador." Shaken to his core, tears streamed down Owen's face.

That afternoon, after the interrogation, Ralph led the criminal investigation team and search unit straight to the construction site in the Eastern District.

With the help of the police dogs, they quickly uncovered the decayed remains of the girl buried in the cement foundation.

They promptly sent the body back to the police station for an autopsy. Ralph then dispatched another team to the resort where the crime happened, hoping to find additional evidence.

Even if the chances were slim, he was not about to miss any opportunity to bring Christopher to justice.

Later that evening, Ralph visited Bella and Justin to inform them of Owen's confession and the case's developments that day.

The study fell into a prolonged, heavy silence.

Although Owen was indeed both pitiful and detestable, Christopher was the true evil mastermind manipulating everything.

"Given Christopher's character, he wouldn't simply use Aaron for drug trafficking. His aim definitely isn't just about making money."

Bella sat beside Justin on the couch. Despite not having much appetite, she graciously ate a piece of sweet pear that Justin had offered her. "I believe he's trying to destroy the Larson Group completely!"

At the thought of his mother, who was now the chairman of the Larson Group, Ralph felt a shiver down his spine.

"But don't worry, Ralph. With Aunt Mila having KS Groups's support and my assistance behind the scenes, the Larson Group won't fall," Bella softly reassured him.Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Thanks, Bella."

Still, Ralph remained confused. "But the Larson Group's base is in Hatchbay, not Savrow. They're a leading company in the pharmaceutical industry, with no overlap in business with the Iverson Group. Why would Christopher go after the Larson Group?"

Bella and Justin exchanged a knowing glance and replied in unison, "Because the Larson Group is a leading pharmaceutical company. That's exactly why he's targeting them!"

Ralph raised an eyebrow in surprise.

He felt like he was once again inadvertently interrupting the couple.

"It seems that the one targeting the Larson Group isn't just Christopher himself but also the mysterious boss behind him."

Bella picked up another piece of pear and brought it to Justin's lips. "The Larson Group is a leader in the

national pharmaceutical industry, Christopher just so happens to be helping his boss with new drug experiments. So, I suspect that this boss wants to enter the domestic pharmaceutical market. To dominate the market, he needs to eliminate his competitors."

"Bella, you're brilliant," Justin praised, holding her small hand while looking at her intently as he took the pear into his mouth.

No matter what he was eating, nothing seemed to stop him from praising his wife.

Ralph continued, "Owen mentioned that the research lab for the new drug is in Meridan, called... RC."

"It looks like we need to find a way to investigate this RC thoroughly," Bella said, her beautiful eyes deep with contemplation.

Just then, her phone rang. It was Steven calling.

"Hey, Steve."

"Ms. Bella, something's going on at the hospital!" Steven's voice sounded tense and urgent. "You were right. Christopher is indeed targeting Owen's wife!"
