Chapter 158 The Truth
Of course, Antonio didn't know what the waiter thought. Even if he really knew it, he wouldn't care.
"Is it appropriate to talk about such an important thing here?" the woman put on a nervous expression.
"It's ok. This restaurant isn't impressive. And I'm careful about coming to meet you. Don't worry."
Antonio comforted her, and then sighed helplessly, "The problem is that others would notice you since
you are dressed like this in summer."
"I...I'm afraid that someone will recognize me." The woman was embarrassed.
Antonio didn't care about it and waved his hand, "Let's get to the point. Tell me, who instigated you to
do that?"
This woman was one of the women who held banners and made trouble at the door the Baron Group a
month ago. She was the one with a lot of small spots on her face.
Antonio had never given up the search for the truth. He must know it. If the skin care product incident
was deliberately planned by other companies to compete with the Baron Group in the market, Antonio
wouldn't be so worried. However, according to various signs, it was very likely that a member of the
company had something to do with it.
The Baron Group suffered a huge loss from this plan alone. If there was another plot, the
consequences would be unimaginable. Antonio must find the traitor.
He already had been suspicious of someone, but after all, it was only suspicion. He needed evidence.
In fact, Antonio had some confidence in his suspicion, but he would rather that he had thought too
much.
If the truth was just as what he had guessed, it would be a lot tougher to deal with it.
After the woman looked around and saw that no one was looking at her, she said something slowly.
Her voice was low, and the more she spoke, the faster she spoke.
In fact, her words was not very different from what Antonio had guessed.
It turned out that one of her friends came to her and said that they could make money together as early
as a month or two before the skin care product incident.
At that time, she was relatively short of money, so she asked her friend how to make money.
Her friend gave her a set of cosmetics and said that she could get 10000 dollars in reward as long as
she used it for a month or two.
She was completely lured and considered it to be pennies from the heaven. Therefore, she didn't
believe it at first.
After questioning, she knew that this set of cosmetics had quality problems. Her friends also told her
that there were many more people who would use this product with her and that they would be required
to do something when the time was right.
Her friend didn't tell her what she would be asked to do at first. She was just told that she could get
5000 dollar now if she could accept it, and she would get the rest 5000 dollar after it was done.
She hesitated again and again, and finally agreed.
On the tenth day that she used that cosmetics, she began to have spots on her face, and there were
more and more spots on her face.
She was a young girl who did her best to maintain her beauty and dared not neglect it at all, just as
other young girls.
The red spots on her face gave her a panic. She found that friend and said that she wanted to quit. Ten
thousand dollars was tempting for her, but she cared more about her face.
However, just after she told it to her friend, her friend told her that she could get an additional 30000
dollar and the employer would pay for the skin care when it was done.
A woman from an ordinary family could really not resist the temptation of $40000. For the sake of
money, she agreed again.
It was later that she knew that what she had to do was to make trouble at the door of the Baron Group.
Although she was very reluctant to do it, she could make money from it. Moreover, there had already
been large and small spots on her face. If she quit at that time, she would have extremely serious
consequences: not only could she not get the money, but her face was almost ruined.
"You know everything after that. We went to the door of your company together to make trouble."
Speaking of this, the woman smiled, "I was very nervous at that time. Fortunately, it wasn't seen
through."
After saying that, she looked at Antonio, realizing suddenly that he was the victim of this incident.
Wasn't she trying to get him angry to say such words?
"I'm sorry. I..." She was going to apologize, but Antonio interrupted her, "It doesn't matter. That is to say,
you only contacted your friend in the whole incident, right?"
"Well, yes." She nodded without thinking.
"Then, what's his name? Tell me how to get in touch with him." Antonio frowned. He didn't expect the
mastermind to handle things so covertly. It seemed difficult to find out the identity of the mastermind.
The woman did not hesitate and blurted out, "Olivia Carpenter. He is a member of a gang."
"Oh? Did you still get to be friends with someone in a gang?"
"I have to. I know a few of them." The woman sighed as if there were many stories buried in her heart.
"Give me your phone and I'll put it down in your notebook."
Antonio took out his mobile phone, unlocked it and handed it to her.
"I had contacted other women who made trouble with you before, but they were unwilling to tell me the
truth. I almost thought that I had the wrong suspicion." Antonio saw her entering words into mobile
phone and continued to say, "But what you said confirmed my guess. It also means that those women
refused to tell me because they had received enough benefits, or enough threats to get them to shut
up."
"Why are you willing to come out and tell me the truth?" Antonio looked at this woman with some
curiosity.
It seemed that what Antonio said touched a raw nerve. She snorted, "If Olivia, the son of a bitch, didn't
gave me only the rest 5000 dollar that he had promised me at the beginning, how is it possible that I tell
you that?"
"Moreover, other women and I had rehearsed a few days in advance because we were going to lie in
public. They said that they were all paid 100000 dollar. Oh! Olivia, the liar, was too greedy. Wouldn't he
be afraid to get comeuppance?"
Antonio finally murmured, "Rehearing." They even had to rehearse. Antonio felt it ironic when he heard
this word.
"By the way, you had better not lie to me, otherwise I will tell Olivia that you have seen me today. If so,
it will be extremely hard for you to continue your investigation."
Antonio looked at her coldly, "Are you threatening me?" He said softly, but she felt cold. She suddenly
shivered in such a hot day. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
"Don't worry. The money is in my trunk. I'm not someone like Olivia, and I'll give you the money I
promised you."
