Chapter 489 Okay Then

News of Dillon's death soon traveled to Jadeborough. Percy felt strangely uneasy when he learned about the news.

Sure enough, his sixth sense was right.

As soon as Sophia gave Felix the order to file a police report against Percy for embezzlement of company funds, Felix gathered all the evidence and handed them to the police that morning. At around three in the afternoon, Percy was taken away by police officers from the economic crime department.

Percy had yet to realize what was happening when he was being taken away. In fact, he did not look the slightest bit guilty.

"I'll cooperate with the investigation, officer."

Percy looked too calm to be a criminal.

When Sophia heard the economic crime police officers had arrived, she purposely took the elevator to wait on the first floor. After all, it was a rare scene.

It did not take long for her to see a few policemen leading Percy out of the elevator.

With a smile on her face, she approached them and asked, "What's going on?"

Percy scowled at the sight of her, but he quickly recollected himself. "It's nothing. The officers said someone reported me for embezzling the company's funds, so I'm going to the station to cooperate with their investigation."

Sophia flashed him a meaningful smile. "Please do your best, Mr. Zaat."

With that, she turned around and walked off in the opposite direction.

When Percy turned around to glance at her, she had already arrived at the elevator door.

Suddenly, a thought occurred to him when he recalled her ambiguous smile from moments ago. His countenance changed, and his heart pounded with panic.

"Let's go." The police officer nudged him.

Percy quickly gathered his thoughts and left with the officers.

Soon, news about Percy being taken away for investigation spread like wildfire among the employees of Odyssey. Even the senior executives who were on his side began feeling uneasy.

On the third day after Percy was taken away, his men finally surrendered to Sophia.

However, she did not respond to them. She simply watched as they fought among themselves.
