Chapter 1399 Curiosity Killed the Cat

"There will be another announcement at the conclusion of the investigation, right?" Luca did not say that she knew who was behind it. Instead, she only said that she was not curious.

She knew that curiosity killed the cat.

Jason smiled as he listened to her explanation. He came to her office to find out

what she knew, but it seemed that he did not find anything interesting.

"You're right. We'll definitely publish the findings once the investigation is complete," he said.

Luca nodded. "Mm. That's why I don't need to make any baseless guesses now."

Jason smiled. He felt his phone vibrate, so he took it out and glanced at the screen. "Alright, Dr. Craw, I won't take up any more of your time."

"Take care." As Luca watched Jason leave, the smile on her face slowly disappeared.

He must have been testing her...

Luca closed the office door behind her and went to the laboratory to continue her research.

Back at Watson Biopharmaceuticals, Cole was exasperated when he read the announcement. The security guard that was caught was his cousin's son.

He did not expect that the security guard would break so easily under interrogation. Even though the security guard did not implicate him in the incident, he had a feeling that Jason would be knocking on his door very soon.

After all, they already knew that the security guard was his relative.

Cole kneaded his hands together worriedly. He thought of contacting the security guard, but the security guard was currently detained in the police station. Even if he were to visit him there, they would not have the chance to talk in private.

"How unlucky!" He cursed under his breath. He thought he could get rid of Luca, but instead, Luca had benefited from his ploy while he had to be kept on tenterhooks.

Cole waited for Talia to appear in his office, but she did not come. He dialed Talia's number on the internal line, but Mo picked up the call instead.

He frowned and asked sternly, "Ms. Stone, where is Talia Sullivan?"
