Pierre's expression remained the same. Even after Jason saw through his nonsense, he did not feel even the slightest bit of guilt. He turned to shout, “How can you believe him? I summoned you guys here as witnesses to prove that the bidding document incident has nothing to do with me. In fact, I'm a victim as well. As police, aren't you supposed to deal with such things?"

The officers did not utter a word.

Pierre added, "That guy, Luke, has been going to the Mallory family to give me a hard time. Now that I want to straighten things out with him face to face, he's nowhere to be seen?"

Pierre rolled his eyes and took out a cigarette from his pocket while fumbling for a lighter. "It's none of your business."

"I'm just curious. Besides, he doesn't look like one of the executives in your company..." Jason said thoughtfully while giving that man another look.

The man who was being looked at lowered his head out of guilt.

He was just a mere employee who got bribed by Pierre to become a scapegoat.
