Jones George knocked on the door and reported, "Mr. Battleson, Miss Allen is not in the lab."
"Hmm, if she’s not there, so be it." Justin Battleson responded.
Jones George nodded and moved forward, handing over a stack of files to Justin Battleson.
"Mr. Battleson, Miss Allen and Ms. Scarlett Watson have been living in Cornelia for years. Here is the information on Miss Allen’s life in Cornelia."
"Cornelia?" Justin Battleson put down the pen in his hand and took the files.
"Yes, she has always been an outstanding student, and she got into Emperor University with excellent grades. She has a rather pure circle of friends, she only dated Ryan Richard, who was also her first love."
"Miss Allen is likely a virtuous girl. Based on the investigation of Ryan Richard’s circle, Miss Allen and Ryan Richard never had a relationship. The primary reason Ryan Richard cheated on Emily Allen was because Miss Allen is excessively conservative."
Excessive conservatism...
Hearing these four words, a faint light floated in the depths of Justin Battleson’s inky eyes.
Based on their interaction over the past few days, Charlotte Allen did not seem like a frivolous woman.
The first time he saw her, he held a bias against her, but she passed his tests.
Otherwise, Charlotte Allen would have been moved by the "one million per month" condition long ago.
"Also, Mr. Battleson, there’s one more discovery..." Jones George hesitated.
Justin Battleson raised his eyebrows slightly and said sternly, "Speak."
"Miss Curtis and Miss Allen grew up in the same village. They were classmates and are very close friends. Before Miss Allen married into Stardust Garden, she worked part-time for half a month in a resort hotel under Miss Curtis."
"That night, Miss Allen was also on shift."
Upon hearing this, the look in Justin Battleson’s eyes faltered, and his expression immediately cooled.
"Does Charlotte know about my affair with Evelyn Curtis?" His boned fingers tapped rhythmically on the table top.
His eyes slightly narrowed, lost in thought.
Could he have been deceived by Charlotte?
"This is not clear. If Miss Curtis intended to conceal it, Miss Allen might not know, otherwise she would have recognized you, Mr. Battleson," Jones George speculated.
Justin Battleson laughed coldly, "But what if Charlotte intentionally concealed it?"
"This... Mr. Battleson, I really don’t think Miss Allen is like that. Besides, she has no need to conceal anything," Jones George asserted.
After looking at Charlotte Allen’s information, he felt that she was truly exceptional and strong.
Despite the hardships in her life, she never gave up but kept pressing on with resilience just like himself.
Perhaps it was empathy or the similar experiences in his past, Jones George was actually biased in Charlotte Allen’s favor.
"Jones George, are you twisting your elbow outwards?" Justin Battleson swept towards Jones George with his sharp eyes.
Jones George immediately bowed his head, "No, Mr. Battleson. This is just my honest thought."
"Get out," ordered Justin Battleson, who clearly understood Jones George’s loyalty.
However, recalling Henry Hudson and then thinking of Jones George, both of them were attracted by Charlotte Allen and willing to help her.
Was Charlotte Allen really as innocent as she appeared?
A shadow of darkness flashed through the depths of Justin’s eyes, and he fell deep into thought once again.
At the entrance of the Riley Group.
"Charlotte, how did you become a perfumer for the Riley Group?" Evelyn Curtis asked anxiously.
Charlotte Allen responded truthfully, "I haven’t joined them. I’m just borrowing their lab to create a perfume."
"Borrowing a lab? How can the Riley Group casually lend a lab to you?" ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel·fiɾe·net
Evelyn Curtis was very suspicious and continued to question, "Charlotte, you’re keeping something from me, aren’t you?"
