227 Slap in the Face

Logan’s face changed drastically at the sight!

He immediately stepped forward, trying to snatch Keira’s mobile phone.

Lewis stepped forward, grabbed his hand, and said sharply, “What do you think you’re doing?”

That’s when the phone rang.

Keira turned on the speaker and before the other party could speak, she said, “Dean Mills, Mr. Logan Lee said that you’d asked for three percent of the shares for the medicine. Is that true?”

Corey immediately said, “Definitely not! Does our biotech company lack that little stock? That’s just ridiculous! Who is spreading such rumors out there?!”

Keira then looked at Logan.

Logan’s face was ashen, and his anxious expression underwent a great change.

Others might not have recognized Corey’s voice, but he did!

Keira said indifferently. “Alright, thanks for clarifying that for me.”

She hung up, and with a mocking smile, looked at Logan, “Do you have anything else to say?”

Selena said, “Aunt Keira, was that Corey just now? He sounded quite polite talking to you, but isn’t Dean Mills known for his bad temper?”

Oliver scoffed. “That definitely wasn’t the real Dean Mills, it was such a joke. Who knows who she got to play along and pretend to be Corey over the phone?”

“Is that so?”

Keira looked at Logan indifferently. “Others may not recognize Dean Mills’s voice, but you should, right?”

Logan was still stubborn. “The voice did sound a bit like him, but there are many scams nowadays, I’ve heard that they can fake not only appearances bu

voices…”

“Should I make another call to Dean Mills? Ask him prove his identity?!”

Keira took out her phone again.

Logan was terrified and immediately waved his hand.

“That won’t be necessary. Dean Mills’s voice is very distinctive, that was indeed Dean Mills just now!”

Everyone looked at him.

After thinking for a moment, Logan said, “Alright, I admit that the three percent of the shares wasn’t for

He and Selena locked eyes before he bluntly said, “It was for me!”
