Chapter 786 Frequent

Camille had these two questions in her mind, but she didn't participate

in the discussion with others. After all, no matter what the truth was, it

had nothing to do with her. Although she didn't like Louise, she wouldn't

push someone to their limits.

So not caring about it was the best response from her.

Camille continued with her work as everyone discussed for a few more

moments before it ended. After all, the people involved were not

present and no one could give a correct answer. So continuing to talk

about it would be a waste of time.

Just then, someone holding their phone and browsing through Hance

City's local forum suddenly exclaimed: "Louise is dead.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.

All eyes unconsciously turned towards the person who spoke those

words. She also had a pale and stiff face while holding up her phone: "I

saw it on a forum, and even the police have released an official

statement.”

Everyone subsequently picked up their phones to open up the local

forum thread - Camille included - after all such big news was quite

shocking.

The thread had exploded with comments from netizens.

The security guard at the apartment building where Louise lived found

her body in the treelawn of her apartment. She was stiff, lying in the

grass without any breath of life.

The security guard immediately called the police, who took her away,

and after an investigation, they concluded that her death was caused

by asphyxiation.

Why did she suffocate to death?

That's something to think about.

“Is this the person who apologized to Mrs. Simpson of the Simpson

Group last time?" a number of people commented on the post.

“It's that person who apologized last time to Mrs. Simpson from

Simpson Group right?"

"Yes! It's definitely her!"

“Last time when she apologized, there wasn't any response from Mrs.

Simpson, right?"

"I feel like I've discovered some huge secret today... I'm starting to get

scared...”

"Me too!"

“This is so scary... What if they silence me too?"

"Don't just speculate randomly; if they really didn?? t accept an

apology, then they would choose another way of dealing with things

instead of resorting to something like this because after all this is taking

someone?? s life! There must be other reasons behind this.”

There were many comments expressing different opinions which

caused chaos in that thread.

Compared to those people in that conference room though; naturally

everything seemed peaceful here despite Camille seeing what was

written on that post along with its replies - others saw them too - so

everyone looked at each other subconsciously including Camille as well

who felt their gaze upon herself.

Someone quickly said, "Ms. Armstrong, don't take it to heart. People

online are just talking nonsense..."

Camille smiled and said, "I'm not taking it to heart. I believe the police

will investigate thoroughly.”

She didn't do anything wrong, so she had nothing to feel guilty about.

Only those who have done something wrong would feel guilty.

So Camille's gaze turned towards Amber, who felt her stare and looked

back at her. The two of them locked eyes for a moment before Amber

seemed to flinch away.

At that moment, an architect asked in a low voice, "Miss Torres, Louise

worked for the same company as you. Did she commit suicide because

she couldn't handle the pressure from work?"

Amber's face changed even more drastically now with a hint of panic

flashing in her eyes as she replied coolly,"l don't know. I wasn't close

with her so don't ask me about it. Didn't Ms. Armstrong already say

everything there is to say about her? The police will naturally

investigate thoroughly.”

With that said Amber stood up and left for the restroom.

As soon as Amber left the conference room exploded into discussion.

"Amber's reaction was strange just now, wasn?? t it? Could it be related

to Louise?? s death?" someone asked.

“I noticed too because usually she likes bossing Louise around like she

doesn?? t see Louise as a human at all, and coupled with how their

company treats Louise like an afterthought, I wouldn?? t blame anyone

if they couldn?? t take it anymore." another chimed in

"If Amber really is responsible for Louise?? s death, then that?? s

terrifying! Did you guys see how calm and collected she was coming

into work like nothing happened? Isn?? t that scary?"

Everyone started discussing one after another. Although their voices

were low, Camille could hear everything clearly without missing any

details.

She also couldn?? t help but wonder if there was some truth behind

what they were saying or if this was all just speculation?

Could it really be Amber?

But these were all outsiders?? guesses; only thorough investigation

could reveal what truly happened, so she would not jump to

conclusions based on superficial information alone.

Camille didn't participate in their discussion but instead continued

working at her desk.

Although Louise wasn?? t famous nor held any significant position of

power or influence, she was once a living person- since news broke out

regarding where they found her body (in an apartment complex lawn),

many people took notice demanding justice from the police while urging

them towards conducting fair investigations promptly.

This morning was anything but calm, and Jenson arrived at the

museum in no time.

Jenson addressed everyone, “I'm sure you all know about Louise's

incident. None of us wanted this to happen. If the police need your

cooperation with their investigation, I hope you can fully cooperate.

Until we figure out what happened, our project will be put on hold for a

few days."

Everyone nodded and began packing up to leave.

However, before anyone could exit the conference room, security

guards from the museum arrived with police officers.

The police stated their intention: "We're here to investigate Louise's

case. According to her personal social media accounts during her time

on this project at the museum, she had many unpleasant encounters

with Camille and Amber. We would like both of them to come down to

the station for questioning.”

Jenson was present and immediately spoke up: “As head of this

project, if there is anything that needs clarification or explanation from

us regarding Louise's case, please ask me directly.”

The police replied: "Both Camille and Amber have had conflicts with

Louise, so we need both of them for detailed questioning at the police

station. If necessary, later on we'll contact you."

Although Jenson was in charge of the project he wasn't needed right

now so he didn't accompany them.

Finally Camille and Amber were taken away by authorities.

Because none of them had ever experienced such a thing before they

were all frightened beyond belief.

Sophie whispered anxiously,"What should we do? Will we also be

implicated?"

"Will this affect our work?" another asked worriedly.

"Will this project be affected?" someone else chimed in fearfully

“Is it possible that Camille or Amber are involved in Louise's death?"

yet another questioned nervously.

Jenson overheard their discussions and his expression turned cold as

he sternly commanded, "Don't talk too much about this matter! We are

all part of one team; any negative or unfavorable incidents will affect

everyone! The best way is to keep silent; don't discuss it too much with

anyone else, because doing so may implicate yourself!"

Everyone nodded obediently as Jenson instructed them all go home

rest while waiting for further instructions from him. After they left, he

picked up his phone and dialed some numbers.

"His tone was urgent,” Kian said. "Ms. Armstrong has been taken away

by the police. They want him to come in for questioning, so what should

we do?"

Kian immediately relayed the news to Ayan. Although this matter had

nothing to do with Simpson Group directly, it was related to the

museum project and involved Camille, so Ayan couldn't just ignore it.

Seeing that Ayan was in silence, Kian asked, "Mr. Simpson, should I

contact Logan?"

"No need," Ayan replied calmly. “Let's wait and see after he finishes

giving his statement. If it's just a simple questioning session, there

won't be any problems.”

If he were to step forward now when only a statement needed to be

given, it would surely attract unwanted attention and cause

unnecessary trouble.

Kian nodded in agreement before voicing his doubts: "Mr. Simpson,

why did Louise have an accident at this time? Did her company

intentionally create this situation for publicity?"

Ayan shook his head coldly: "Impossible; not every company can afford

such publicity.”

He fell silent again before suddenly remembering something and

asking indifferently: "Find out who Louise frequently interacts with."
