Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

Chapter 43 Chapter 43 +26 BONUS Andrew noticed Michaels obvious relief, and their eyes met silently across the room

Theres water in front of each of you to quench your thirst.

Being thirsty isnt a priority right now.

Paul chimed in, Mr.

Rhodes is right.

Even if we die of thirst, we wont leave until we find the person who tried to harm you, Ms. Rhodes

Lauren smiled gracefully and declared, Ill be honest with everyone one of these glasses bas been poisoned by me.

Everyone must drink their water now.

Those with clear consciences will be fine, but as for the culprit... well, good luck.

Andrew returned his glare with a bright smile and warned the executives, Everyone should be careful before drinking

Once it takes effect, not even the fastest ambulance in the city can save you! This terrified the executives even more, with several of them trembling visibly Michael finally lost his composure and shouted angrily, Lauren, and you, pretty boy arent you afraid of karma for being so vicious? Lauren fixed a cold stare on Michael and retorted If youre not the culprit, then your water isnt poisoned. Why are you so nervous ? Unless you have something to hide ? 12 Chapter 43 Michael faltered, his eyes darting around nervously.

At that mome glass and drank it all

Eunice picked up her The other executives followed suit, one by one, showing their loyalty to Lauren. After all, only the culprits glass was poisoned, so this was their chance to prove their innocence.

Gulp after gulp, the glasses were emptied quickly Only Michael and Paul remained.

Pauls face turned pale as he looked at Lauren and said, Ms.

Rhodes, arsenic isnt something to joke about.

Are you sure... Lauren cut him off with a wave of her hand.

Mr.

Clarke, drink the water first.noveldrama
