Chapter 1024

"You go investigate the gardener's whereabouts. I'll head back to the hospital."

Sylvia glanced at the calm swimming pool and then at the rest of the Gibson family estate. "Remember what I said earlier, restoring everything to its original state is best. Don't make any changes to your family's layout; this geomantic array was set up by your ancestors and has been disrupted by the gardener."

"You mean my family has a geomantic array?" Emiliano felt dizzy.

Sylvia nodded. Generally, in large families, ancestors would invite experts to set up a geomantic array to ensure the prosperity and safety of future generations.

The Gibson family was no exception.

"This geomantic array was meant to bring good fortune to the Gibson family, but it has been damaged. Restoring it should solve the problem."

Sylvia's cool voice explained calmly.

"I see, Miss Andrews, you are truly a benefactor to the Gibson family," Emiliano said excitedly and gratefully. "If you ever need anything from us, just ask."

"Yes, especially since the Gibson family and the Hipps family are in-laws."

"We are truly fortunate to have met Miss Andrews."

Sylvia remained indifferent, not showing any emotion despite the praise. "It's just a small effort."

She didn't linger at the Gibson family estate and headed straight to the hospital.

On her way to the hospital, she received a call from Logan. "Boss, you're back? I have something important to tell you."

Sylvia's fingers, holding the phone, glowed pale in the sunlight. "What is it?"

"About half an hour ago, we found a woman's body inside one of our machines at Longevity Pharmaceuticals' factory. It looks like she has been dead for at least a month," Logan said irritably. "Although she was found in our machine, it's clear this wasn't the primary crime scene. She was definitely dumped there."

Sylvia's expression turned serious. "Something like this happened in our factory? Did you call the police?"

"Yes, the police are already there," Logan said, feeling frustrated. This incident was a major headache for Longevity Pharmaceuticals.

It would not only affect the company's reputation but also potentially impact its stock price.

Especially with netizens spreading all sorts of rumors on Twitter, the situation was snowballing out of control.

The Larro police quickly issued a statement on Twitter saying they hadn't identified any suspects yet but would investigate promptly.

However, the trending topic of Longevity Pharmaceuticals being responsible for someone's death still surged.
