Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 41 Rope Them In

Callum didn’t bother answering Elspeth’s question as he took out his laptop with his unhurt hand and started working.

She shrugged indifferently at his non-response. Then, she, too, took out the laptop she carried with her from her bag and wanted to uncover the mastermind behind the ambush. She found out about the men’s criminal organization based on their facial features as well as their recent call records and monetary transactions. All the clues led her to Alphascape Group.

“Callum, do you know who the mastermind behind this attack is?” Elspeth asked tentatively.

“Alphascape,” he answered curtly while typing on the keyboard swiftly.

She gasped in surprise. “How did you know?”

He replied in a mellow and calm voice, “Recently, our shares have risen sharply, and our venture in the jewelry industry is booming. We have almost monopolized the low-end jewelry market and are climbing closer to high-end products. Who do you think is the most worried party now?”

“Alphascape was upset because of the failure of the cooperation last time, and they didn’t get a share of the pie. So now, they are jealous of our results. This is why you think they have the motive, right?”

“You’re very smart.” Callum smiled, which was a rare occasion.

Elspeth was surprised at his quick thinking. But then, she thought of something else and asked another question, “What are you going to do now?”

She had always been a vengeful person. She would not touch those who left her to her own devices, but if she were attacked, she would ensure that her attackers got a taste of their own medicine. Alphascape Group ambushed them, so she would not let them off the hook!

A piercing gleam flashed across his eyes. “I won’t spare them, of course.”
