"You have no jurisdiction over it despite being who you are?"
Puzzled, Rhea frowned.
Cameron explained, "Even though | hold a high post, I'm in charge of a different department."
"Tsk."
Rhea was somewhat disdainful.
"I thought you have power, but | was wrong."
Cameron did not retort to Rhea’s mockery but looked ashamed instead.
Meanwhile, Fabian and his wife were bewildered as they peered from afar.
"lI wonder what Ree has on him.I've never seen Ron looking so attentive.He was never like that, even in front of my sister.He's
acting like a..."
Fabian paused and hesitated whether to say the word.

On the other hand, Maria was outspoken, so she completed his sentence, "Like a lapdog!"
Fabian was astounded.He shot his wife a look but did not scold her because he thought so too.
"| feel the sway.l asked Ree what the secret is all about just now."
"What did she say?" Fabian asked eagerly, rather intrigued.
"She said that hearing about it might costmy life and askedwhether | still wanted to know."
Maria could not help but shudder thinking about Rhea's appearance as she said it.
Fabian was puzzled.
"It's getting harder to know what she’s thinking."
He shook his head and sighed, feeling it was wrong for him to say such a thing.
Then he added, "Well, I've never been able to know her well.l didn’t even know she could poison someone being merely a teenager
back then."
Fabian thought it was impossible when he first heard about Anastasia’s poisoning from Cameron.
He wondered how it could cause someone to suffer chronic poisoning through inhalation.It was like a plot out of a for Fabian.
Still, it had happened, and the culprit was his daughter.
Even so, Rhea was just a teenager when she started poisoning Arianna.
During Fabian’s shock, he had to admit that his daughter was something else.
"Shere..."
Maria sighed and looked toward her daughter.
However, Rhea was already gone, and Cameron was turning to leave.
Maria becflustered and said, "Fabian, where's Ree?"
"Wasn't she..."
Fabian was dumbfounded when he noticed his daughter was no longer around.
"Where could she have gone in such a short moment?"
He glanced around but saw no sign of Rhea.He no longer bothered looking for his daughter and chased after Cameron instead.
Cameron's men stopped Fabian when he was only a few steps away from his brother-in-law.
"Ron..." he called out.

Cameron stopped and turned around to give Fabian a stern look.
"Since you've landed the project, you must do a good job."
"Yes, yes!"
Fabian beamed and nodded repeatedly.
"Ron, about the funding..."
"Everything has to go by the book.You'll get the money after completing the paperwork,"
Cameron said somewhat impatiently with a frown.
"Yes, yes, | know."
Fabian wanted to say something else, but Cameron seemed busy and strode off.
His path barred by the men, Fabian consoled himself with the thought that he had secured the project after all.
‘La Beauté Group did nothing about it.Even though the paperwork looks okay, it's clear that Cameron has deliberately taken the
project away from them to give it to me, his brother-in-law.Considering how Alexander is, it's unlikely he would just give up the
contract"
Fabian was initially worried for a few days, but he later learned that the company had taken no action.He felt more at ease when
he discovered that Alexander had not returned from overseas and there was no news of him.
