Chapter 400
Neera looked at Joanna's sophistry coldly, grasped the point, and said unhurriedly, "Then what can count asevidence? The cold medicine I prescribed? My cold medicine isn't powerful enough to produce such toxincomponents!"
Being retorted by Neera, Joanna's complexion darkened, and she did not know how to explain it. novelbin
After all, she said those words just now, and now Neera used them to refute her. There was nothing unreasonable.
When she tried to clear the suspicion, Jean ran out of patience.
"I originally planned to end the funds invested in your research center, but now I have changed my mind. If youall explain what the components of this medicine are for and what medicines you've developed, I can continue tosupport your research and development in the next three years!"
After Joanna's team heard that, they gradually overwhelmed their fears with excitement.
After all, a good investor like Beauvort Group was rare.
Jean had always kept his promises. Anyway, this matter had nothing to do with them. If they said it, nothingwould happen. In this way, there was still hope for the research center to survive. But if they concealed it, theywould get implicated!
Seeing that they seemed to have moved their minds, Joanna became anxious. Although they united as a team, shedid not expect Jean to use such threats and lures!
She was so flustered that she quickly told her team members, "We've worked together for many years! You mustdistinguish right from wrong! Don't give up our friendship for the sake of short-term interests!"
Her words were full of hints. It was the only thing she could do now.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, one of them told Jean, "Mr. Beauvort, we've never used any ofthese components. This matter has nothing to do with us!"
In an instant, Joanna seemed to stop breathing and looked at the man fiercely as if she wanted to tear him apart.The one who spoke was the one who followed her the longest. She did not know why he betrayed her.
After the rest of the people saw it, they also defected one after another.
"Yes, Mr. Beauvort. We concentrate on the research and development of cell-based medicines. We won't involvepoisons."
"We don't know why these medicines appear in our research center. If you didn't expose it, we still don't know ityet!"
"Mr. Beauvort, Dr. Bridges was often alone in the research room some time ago. We didn't know what she wasdoing. We didn't care about it before, but it seems related to these components!"
"Yes, that must be the case! Joanna has her laptop in the office. Her laptop has records she has developed over theyears. Maybe you can find some clues..."
Jean's expression darkened, and he looked at Ian.
Ian bowed and said respectfully, "I've brought her laptop, but Dr. Bridges set a complicated password. I haven'thad time to crack it yet."
Jean sneered, then looked at Joanna without any warmth. "Since you say you're innocent, why don't you unlockthe password on the spot? Let us see what you developed in the records."
Joanna was shocked and terrified. She never thought that things would develop to this point! They should besuspicious of Neera. Why did their object of suspicion become her?
Due to nervousness, Joanna trembled and could only refuse to admit it. "I didn't do anything against Madam, letalone poison her! As for this laptop, it's my personal property. I don't need to open it! I don't need to use it toprove anything!"
Neera had already seen that Joanna was at the end of her strength. She could not help but smile. "Dr. Bridges,why don't you open it?"
Joanna clenched her hands and glared at Neera. "I have my privacy! I won't open it!"
Then, Joanna looked at Jean pitifully. She could only place her hopes on him and ask him to trust her.
However, Jean did not bother to pay attention to Joanna and ordered Ian coldly, "Since she refuses to enter thepassword, just crack it!"
Ian nodded. "Yes, Sir!"
