It was only then that Irene noticed the faint, unpleasant odor in the air and the blood all over the ground. This was too big an incident for the manager to handle alone. "How many people know about this?" Irene asked, her expression icy.

The manager quickly replied, "Ms. White, I sealed the factory doors immediately when it happened, not many have seen it."

Irene nodded, "Inform the families of these individuals, give them extra compensation. Also, ensure those who've witnessed this keep quiet. This must not get leaked. And make sure nothing like this happens again."

"I understand," the assistant replied gravely.

Irene nodded in satisfaction. The factory in Canalshore was in a very secluded area. Besides a few rundown villages, there were no other buildings around.

"We haven't tracked them down yet."

"Useless! No one can find out about that matter!" Irene said coldly.
