A tremor ran through Soha as Alexander tightened lus grip around her arm. She
couldn't tear her eyes away from the figure on the closest table.
“Itis her,” she tried to maintain composure but was unable to. Fortunately,
Alexander was already holding her in his arms. “It is Mrs. Phelps.” she mumbled,
a wave of nausea washing over her
“Are you sure?” one of the officers asked.
She nodded gently as Alexander rubbed her back.
“Unfortunately, we cannot tell you anything right now. We are trying to contact
Mrs. Phelps family.”
“My secretary will provide you with everything that you need,” Sofia said. She
had already called Miss Amores and even
Karina
“Shall we leave this place?” Alexander said. In response, Sofia looked at the
officers who escorted them outside.
“Thank you so much for your help, Miss Lockhart. We found your calling card on
Mrs. Phelps clothing, so we immediately called you. Please expect another visit
from us in the next few days.” the officers said
Sofia could only nod in response. She and Alexander then went back to his
place.
A heavy silence clung to them as they entered the apartment. The warmth and
familiarity of the space did little to dispel the chill of grief and suspicion that hung
over Sofia.
Sinking onto the couch, she ran a hand through her hair, her mind a whirlwind of
thoughts. Mrs. Phelps death felt like yet another cruel twist in the complex web
she was caught in, a web spun by deceit and manipulation.
“It has to be Lawrence,” she finally broke the silence, her voice low and laced
with anger. “Or maybe Mr. Oh. He has been too convenient in all of this.”
Alexander sat beside her, his hand resting on hers, offering silent support.
“I have already discreetly begun investigating, he assured her, his voice firm. “My
people are digging deeper into Mrs. Phelps past, her connections, and anything
that might shed light on what happened. I also did an in-depth investigation of
Mr. Oh
Sofia appreciated his efforts, but a knot of worry remained in her stomach.
“Finding out who killed her won't bring her back.” she said softly. “But it will it will
make sure they don't get away with it. Her voice trembled slightly as she recalled
her last conversation with Mrs. Phelps.
At that time, she asked her to gather evidence that could harm Mr. Oh. Sofia
wanted something concrete against Mr. Oh, and Mrs. Phelps would have been
the perfect pawn
She never expected this to happen. Sadly, she doesn't have any specifics about
Mrs. Phelps’ death, and she could only wait for the police to come up with
something.
The very next day, the news of Mrs. Phelps’ demise had already spread inside
the office. Sofia could not help but frown the moment she walked into her office
Last night, she did not have that much sleep as she thought about Mrs. Phelps’
death. In the end, she felt like a walking

“Many of my designs have been sold on various websites even before we
launched them. This prompted me to investigate. and this is what I found out.”
Sofia added.
“And you have yet to confront her about this?” Special Agent Marcus asked.
“No. Not yet. I wanted to but... I have been very busy in the past few days. As
you know. I just became the CEO of the company. My birthday was just a few
days ago, and we encountered a few problems along the way.”
“Then may I ask where you were two days ago?” Special Agent Emily asked.
“It was my birthday two days ago. Agent Parker, I had more than twenty people
with me at an event with my grandmother. As for where I spent the night...I was
with Mr. Alexander Beaumont. In his flat. Just the two of us.” Sofia smiled.
Agent Parker and Agent Reynolds exchanged a brief glance, a silent
conversation passing between them.
Thank you for your honesty, Ms. Lockhart,” Agent Parker said finally. “We
appreciate you coming forward with this information. The documents you
provided will be included in our investigation.”
Sofia nodded.
“Besides these documents, did you notice anything strange about her lately?”
Special Agent Parker asked.
“Nothing really. Before I became the CEO, we used to interact a lot as she was
the production manager; however, it was not on a personal level. I have been
busy with my work, and since I was not overseeing everything at the time, I didn’t
notice any problems in the company.”
The two agents nodded.
“Ms. Lockhart,” Agent Reynolds began, leaning forward slightly. You mentioned
you weren't close to Mrs. Phelps on a personal level. However, as the CEO and
someone who recently uncovered evidence of potential wrongdoing within LH
Design, we find it curious that you wouldn't confide in your production manager,
especially someone who'd been with the company for over two decades.”

“However, Sofia continued. “I did notice a change in her behavior recently. She
seemed stressed and worked late more e often. But I didn’t think much of it at the
time. If you have questions... feel free to ask anyone else in the company. I know
a few people who have been working with her for more than ten years now.”
The two agents quickly thanked her. “One last thing...” Special Agent Parker
said. “May I know the people who you sent to investigate Mrs. Phelps?”
