Chapter 448
Caleb had a bunch of documents ready in less than two hours and was on his way to the penthouse
suite at the Midnight Bar.
In front of the floor–to–ceiling windows, the man was sprawled out on the U–shaped sofa. His long legs
lazily crossed. The dim light highlighted his cool and elegant demeanor.
Caleb barged in, quickly walking over to Bernard with all the documents he had gathered.
“Boss, the one letting that guy impersonate you was Sophie.”
Bernard, took a glance at the documents but didn’t take them. He just motioned for Caleb to continue.
“Three years ago, you had us mess with her every month.”
“She’s been harboring a grudge against us ever since, which is why she used our identities to get back
at Ms. Shultz.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBernard’s cold gaze fell on Caleb.
“How did she find out about my identity?”
“She doesn’t know you are Mr. Law.”
Confusion filled Bernard’s eyes, and Caleb quickly explained.
“Do you remember, two years ago on Ms. Shultz’s death anniversary, you were drunk and took us to
get back at Ms. Ratliff? That’s when she saw you wearing a mask. She didn’t recognize you, and she
thought you were our boss.”
as able to find so
“That’s why she was able to find someone with a similar build to impersonate you. She did it to kill two
birds with one stone.”
“By having the impersonator harm Ms. Shultz, she could destroy what you care about most. And if you
found out about it, you’d definitely go after the culprit.”
“Ms. Ratliff’s move was brilliant. She used the impersonator to harm Ms. Shultz and your hand to take
us down. Her plan was perfect, except she didn’t know you are Mr. Law.”
After Caleb finished his report, the man lounging on the sofa was suddenly filled with murderous intent.
If Sophie wasn’t someone the boss had cared about since they were young, she would have been
taken care of long ago.
Who knew that his last bit of sympathy for the boss could have led to Eleanor being violated? How
could he let that slide?
“Lock her up!”
With only one hour until eight, Bernard, who was anxious to see her, didn’t have time to deal with
Sophie.
He could only lock her up first, explain things to Eleanor, and then settle the score with Sophie.
“Yes!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCaleb left as ordered.
Meanwhile, Pearce had rounded up a bunch of thugs and hurried to the Midnight Bar with Eleanor.
Eleanor looked over the rough men who surrounded her in the elevator.
Each of them had tattoos on their arms and looked quite intimidating.
But when they spoke, they seemed a bit silly, like they weren’t the sharpest tools in the shed.
Eleanor was seriously doubting whether Pearce had been conned or if he was just unreliable.
She felt that these “brutes” were no match for Mr. Law. Just as she was about to give up, the elevator
doors opened. The brutes immediately raised their clubs and charged out, making a racket. Eleanor
had no choice but to follow. The presidential suite at the top of the Midnight Bar was the only room.
They quickly reached the door to the suite.
Pearce held a small club, with her chin raised, indicating for Eleanor to knock on the door.
Eleanor’s heart was racing, and her thumb and fingertips were constantly rubbing against each other
until they were warm. She took a deep breath, raised her fair and delicate hand, made a fist, gathered
her courage, and firmly knocked on the door three times.
