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?novelbin
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,"I 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."
