Powerful Papa with Triplet Babies

Chapter 1578

He did glance at the phone when the call came in, and the number was not shown.

It was truly unusual for him to receive such a call after the infected person was burnt to death.

Therefore, Corentin returned to the study once again.

He stood next to the table and held the phone in his hand.

There was no way he could call back a number that was not shown.

A minute later, the phone rang again.

It was as if Corentin had figured he would call him again. Corentin answered the call but did not say anything and just waited for the person on the other end to say something.

"Hello, Mr. Lloyd. Since you're answering the phone at this hour, surely you won't be disturbed by others."

"Are you not even going to tell me your name before you start the conversion?"

"You should've figured out who I am. Isn't that right? There's no need to beat around the bush when talking to a smart person like you."

Corentin indeed already knew it was Tommy before he answered the call.

'You're the one who started the fire." Corentin's tone was firm.

"I'm holding out an olive branch to you. Will you accept it?" Tommy asked over the phone.

"I refuse."

"It's not good to refuse when you've already gotten your hands on my virus, right?" Tommy did not show his displeasure after being rejected. Instead, he was laughing softly.

"What are you talking about? I don't understand?" Corentin remained calm.

"Do you understand what a chemical plant is then?"

Corentin squinted his amber-colored eyes dangerously. "You investigated me?"

"Sorry about that. There's an infected person in Athetin, so I had to keep an eye out for it. Also, the person who had the island surrounded and launched an attack earlier was you, wasn't it? I figured what's going on once I put two and two together."

"Yet you still want to work with me?" Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"You can pin all those things you've done on me. I only want Anne. Is it a good deal?" Tommy stated his purpose.

"You're truly obsessed with her."

'You won't have any losses."

"I'll think about it."

"Is there a need for that? Don't waste everybody's time."

Corentin, indeed, had no other options.

It was originally something he was doing in secret, but Tommy has completely seen through it all.

It would be a huge disadvantage to him once this matter was exposed, especially since Ashlynn was pregnant at that moment. He absolutely could not let her, who was already feeling sensitive, know

anything about it at all.

Corentin said, "Pleasure working with you, but I have a request. I want to know the cure."

"You will receive it."

Corentin came out of the study and went upstairs.

Anne was hiding in the corner, and she watched Corentin return to the room.

Why did he go to the study at that hour?

She quietly went downstairs and headed to the study.

She opened the door to the study and went in quickly. She wanted to find some clues, but she found nothing.

There was certainly something wrong with Corentin!

When Anne woke up in the morning, Anthony's call came in. "Did you sleep well?"

'Quite well," Anne told him about her keeping an eye on Corentin last night.

In any case, she did not find anything at all.

"Someone returned to the scene of the crime last night. Ivan speculates it's someone from the Tianya Group. That person has the intent to kill."

"Is he alright?" asked Anne.

"Don't worry about other men."

Anne was speechless. She decided that since he was being absurd, that meant Ivan should be fine. "They only fought with each other? Did he not notice anything else?"

'He seemed to be searching for something at the scene of the crime. No valuable clues were found."

"At least that proves the fire was Tommy's doing and has nothing to do with Corentin," Anne concluded. "Do you still think it has something to do with Corentin?"

"Corentin is not a person that could be trusted."

Before Corentin received the data to make the virus from Tommy, he received a call from Beth instead. "Can you explain to me what happened to the chemical plant?"

"I refuse."
