Upon hearing that, Rayna knew that someone had deliberately played dirty tricks and made it difficult for Giselle to return so that the latter could not alibi her.

Rayna tried to recall the happenings at the lock-up. As she started connecting the dots, she could guess who the mastermind was. “I see. Give Ms. Brenn a call and thank her for rushing back for my sake. Everything’s settled here, and she can return to where she came from.”

Ella nodded. “I’ve contacted the person in charge of Egret Scents as well as more than ten media companies. We shall hold a press conference at two in the afternoon in the conference room. Is that okay, Ms. Garland?”

“Sure! I’ll be there at two sharp.”

Immediately after Ella left, Rayna opened up the takeout boxes and enjoyed her piping hot spaghetti bolognese. It warmed her tummy up and made her feel better.

While eating her delicious food, she had flashbacks of Curtis making the same food for her.

Although the spaghetti bolognese he cooked for her was very salty and the plating was bad too, she found it extremely appetizing.

It was the first time that man had ever made a meal for her. Moreover, it was a plate of spaghetti bolognese.

Rayna’s heart ached whenever she thought about the past.

She tried to distract herself by whipping out her phone and calling a private detective.

The line was connected about ten seconds later.

“Ms. Garland.” After greeting Rayna, the private detective joked, “I heard that a small company is suing Glory. Are you perhaps planning to engage my service to find out more about them?”

Rayna took her time to swallow her food before answering, “I can settle that case within today. The reason I called is to obtain the dirt on an individual.”

“Who is it? Your arch enemy?”

“The Xavier family.”

The private detective kept quiet.

After a minute of silence, he replied cryptically, “You know, Ms. Garland, I’m just a small business owner. I don’t want to take the risk and end up hurting myself.”

“I know. I won’t let you take uncalculated risks.”

When Rayna was making her way to the company earlier, she had thought about a special plan. “You just need to focus on the investigation and leave the rest to me. Besides good remuneration, I’ll also help you obtain Yartran citizenship.”

“Really?” The private detective found it unbelievable. “It’s not easy to apply to be a citizen of Yartran. Are you sure you can help me with that, Ms. Garland?”
