Chapter 333
Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the villa, casting an eerie glow on the wine glass in the man's hand.
Twitter's server crash notifications kept popping up on his screen. His eyes darkened dangerously as he stared at the display.
"Sir, the situation is deteriorating." The assistant wiped sweat from his brow. "Château Blanc's stock prices are skyrocketing."
The man hurled his glass against the wall. Shards exploded like crystal daggers.
"Evacuate everyone immediately." He loosened his tie, voice ragged. "Take care of Daniel Murphy. Make it quick."
As the assistant scrambled to leave, the man suddenly called out, "Wait."
His lips curled into a cruel smile as he studied Evelyn Roland's verified profile picture. "Prepare a gift for Miss Roland."
Meanwhile, in Château Blanc's garden...
Evelyn tapped her fingers against the stone table, brow furrowed. "Julian, any leads on that blurry figure from the surveillance footage?"
"Forensics is working on it." Julian Roland's expression was grim. "Whoever it was knew how to cover their tracks."
A sudden breeze made Evelyn shiver.
She whirled around to find Sebastian Valdemar standing behind her, his black trench coat billowing like a storm cloud.
"You look pale." He brushed a fallen leaf from her shoulder. "You should rest."
Before she could respond, her phone vibrated violently.
A Twitter alert blazed across her screen: #ChâteauBlancFormerEmployeeDiesMysteriously#
