Chapter 2033: Chapter 2043: More Than a Sister’s Affection
Skye Lawrence turned her head away, not looking at the phone. She pursed her lips and said, "It’s none of your business!"
A sudden flash of anger appeared in Oscar’s eyes. He clamped her chin with one hand and lifted it up, staring into her eyes as he said, "You use the Oscar family name to do things outside that I don’t know about, and it has nothing to do with me? Are you sure?"
Skye Lawrence’s whole body trembled, and she abruptly looked at him. Then she relaxed quickly, suddenly curling her lips into a smile, "You know everything, so why ask me?"
Oscar’s thin lips pressed into a line, his bright blue eyes reflecting her image. He said calmly, "I only found out this morning. I didn’t know what you were doing before. I didn’t expect my dear Mrs. Oscar to be so busy, not even taking a break during our wedding, and still going to find trouble with Rhine."
He really did not expect Skye Lawrence to cause such a huge stir.
It wasn’t until someone from Knotwell got scared and came to tell him that he knew Skye Lawrence had been orchestrating things behind his back using his name.
She even used Oscar family connections to tamper with the accounts of the company Rhine was cooperating with, and then had someone anonymously report it.
After that, the government investigated that company’s finances, causing its projects to come to a halt as well.
It was then that she arranged for Knotwell Group people to contact Rhine’s people and secure the mall project. She bribed Rhine’s Deputy Minister of Quality Inspection to deliberately provide Rhine with substandard materials, covering it up through the Deputy Minister.
Until the mall reopened and an accident occurred.
In this situation, any commotion would inevitably attract media and public attention. Once it was discovered that Rhine used substandard materials, everything would fall into place.
Rhine was completely finished.
Along with Rhine, as the representative, Enna Clark would also be stained, and no matter what Enna Clark did in the future, someone would always bring up that incident with Rhine.
He didn’t feel there was any problem with this. He even admired Skye Lawrence’s methods for being ruthless and comprehensive. One link connected to another, clean and efficient, far beyond what an ordinary woman could think of or execute.
However, he did not expect that the ’commotion’ Skye Lawrence used to stir up public opinion would be a human life.
This exceeded his imagination.
Upon learning of this matter, he even began to doubt whether the woman he had watched and believed he knew so well over the years was the same person.
The Skye Lawrence he knew was strong-willed, aloof, and stubborn, but not completely devoid of emotion.
She had her own principles and bottom lines.
She would work tirelessly for days and nights without sleep to secure a project, but she would also decisively give up on her month’s or even months’ effort if the other party’s demands exceeded her principles...
That’s the person known as Skye Lawrence.
Not the woman who, behind his back, wouldn’t care about a human life just to achieve her own goals.
This morning, after receiving a call from someone at Knotwell Group, he fiercely took her, just wanting to prove he hadn’t misjudged her.
He couldn’t believe anyone could remain disguised for years without revealing their true nature when no one was watching.
Oscar tightened his grip on her chin, lifting it up, and pressed close as he said, "I’ve always wanted to ask you why you care so much about Baron Lawrence’s affairs. More than a sister should. Now, I think I know."
"You like him."
