Chapter 263:
The smile on Annabel’s face did not waver. “It’s true that I’m in charge of the Ice and Fire project. But if we are to judge based on your logic, shouldn’t Rupert, the CEO of this company, be blamed for what happened? Should he resign too p>
Finley’s jaw dropped when he heard this. How dare Annabel say that? And in front of Rupert too.
Unable to retort, Erica turned to Rupert and said, “Did you hear her? Fire her right now p>
“Mom, that’s my decision to make. Please don’t meddle in the company’s affairs.” Rupert pulled at his tie irritably. He walked to the door and opened it. “I’m very busy. Please leave, and take Cathy and these men with you p>
“Why are you acting like this, Rupert? Auntie came here because she’s worried about you,” Cathy yelled. “You can’t allow Annabel to continue working here. Otherwise, this company will be brought to the ground in no time p>
Rupert cast a cold glance at Cathy. “Remember that you aren’t even a real Benton p>
“How could you…” Cathy was heartbroken.
She was adopted, but that didn’t mean she had fewer rights in the Benton family than this bumpkin called Annabel.
“Rupert, you will regret letting Annabel stay in Benton Group!” Erica glared at her son and left with her minions the same way they came.
“Don’t be offended, Annabel. You know how they are.” Rupert looked at Annabel apologetically.
“I understand.” Annabel shrugged with a smile.
Suddenly, her phone rang.
She looked down and saw that it was from the QA officer in the French factory.
“What’s the update? Are the results out?” she inquired as soon as she answered the call.
“Yes.” The QA officer’s voice came from the other end of the line. “After testing all the products here, it has been confirmed that some of them contain radioactive material p>

“Okay, I see,” Annabel said coldly.
After ending the call, she turned to Rupert with a serious expression. “The test results indicate that there’s indeed something fishy going on in the French factory p>
“The French factory?” Rupert asked, raising his eyebrows.
“Yes.” Annabel nodded with certainty. “The test results show that some of the products produced in the French factory contain radioactive material. Something is going on there p>
Rubbing his temples, Rupert said in a cold voice, “We haven’t been paying much attention to the branch factory in France. It appears someone took the opportunity to start something shady when we least expected it p>
Annabel put two and two together.
She reasoned that Rupert’s words made sense. Compared to the attention given to the headquarters, the management of the French factory was much more relaxed. It must have been much easier to infiltrate.
