Even so, he still found something didn’t add up. “Ethan, how do you explain my employee’s phone and their voices if she isn’t with them?”

Before Irvin could get an answer from the other man, his phone rang all of sudden, interrupting the conversation. Casting a glance at the caller ID, his face contorted a little. “It’s from Justin.”

The caller’s reminder suddenly came into his mind—keep the words to himself. However, he messed up and caused a huge problem for his helper.

Feeling guilty, Irvin quickly accepted the call.

Ethan’s gaze landed on him with interest as he thought, Justin must know something about her if he sent her to help Irvin in the first place.

“Irvin, how’s it going?” The man who called spoke with a slow tone and a deep voice.

“I guess it went smoothly?” Irvin was still having questions in his mind, so he hesitated to answer.

The caller paused for a moment to process Irvin’s words before answering in a deeper voice, although his reply sounded unrelated to their previous topic. “Remember to buy the team leader a new phone.”

At that, the man ended the call without another word.

“What? All right.” Irvin was taken aback by the abrupt reply for a moment before an idea occurred in his mind. The woman took the phone.

This means that Ethan is right. She isn’t upstairs.

However, Irvin was feeling guilty as she was merely here to help him out, but he exposed her information to the others without her permission. It ended up attracting Ethan’s attention and caused her a lot of trouble.

Besides, she was a great help. He wouldn’t mind paying for more new phones if those were the cost of her aid.

As Irvin’s mind was previously occupied by the thoughts of helping Ethan to stop her, the idea to reward her never came to him. Come to think of it, I didn’t even thank her.
