Chapter 528 Manslaughter

On Thursday, Brightness held a general shareholder's meeting and invited many news media at home and abroad.

Rose, the spokesperson of Brightness, took out the patent certificate of C technology and relevant parts. Without its authorization, no other company or person was allowed to use the same technology within five years.

She also told the shareholders that the technology Seine used in the bid for the equipment was stolen from Brightness. At present, they had conclusive evidence and would sue Seine at any time.

Hearing this, the crowd burst into an uproar, like a time bomb, starting the timer.

What came next was that the stock price of Brightness soared and that of Seine company plummeted on the contrary.

What a play Essie was playing. Smart people could see it.

This was a trap.

Under the influence of the European debt crisis, the profit of Seine kept falling. Zac had made a bold decision for Essie to acquire the company, which was the biggest threat to the Brightness.

The senior executives of Seine decided to fight back. They wanted to survive in a desperate situation and turn the loss into profit by cooperating with Baker. At the same time, they gave a heavy blow to Brightness. However, they didn't expect that they missed a step and fell into the cliff.

Now, it would face the double huge compensation from Brightness and Baker. It was like a ball with only a big hole and could no longer be bulging. There were only two ways for Seine to get rid of the crisis. One was to declare bankruptcy, the other was to surrender to Brightness and accept to be acquired.

The shareholders of Seine were unwilling to choose the former, not to mention that Essie had to whip them behind to speed up their pace.

Now, there was another thing that needed to be solved by Essie. The thing was to find the chief culprit who leaked the technical secret.

In fact, from the moment when Finney planted a virus in the computer and stole the technical information, Essie had found it. She pretended to know nothing and let Finney finish her work. She was going to catch the big fish in one net.

When she found Finney, she burst into tears. "I'm sorry, Essie. I didn't mean to do that, but I have no choice. If I don't do as that person said, I'll be in jail."

Startled, Essie asked, "Finney, tell me what happened."

Finney sniffed and sobbed, "I met a friend in the fitness club. She is a famous painter and has the same interests as me. We have a good talk. One day, she invited me to her house for fun. I went there without thinking. I didn't expect that she was a lesbian and confessed her love to me. I was frightened and wanted to leave, but she grabbed me. We had a quarrel on the stairs. I pushed her down by accident. She died. I wanted to pretend that she fell off the building by accident, but I didn't expect that someone took the video of that day and sent it to me. He threatened me that if I didn't do as he said, he would hand the evidence to the police and put me in jail. "

Essie's two beautiful eyebrows twisted into a ball, and her intuition told her that there was something wrong with it.

The next day, when the first ray of morning sunlight fell from the

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

nurse lifted Casey into the car. When she was about to follow them, she was stopped. "If you are not her family, don't follow us. Hurry up and inform her family."

She was at a loss and her mind went blank. After the ambulance left, she remembered that she didn't have the contact information of Casey's family at all.

Just when she was at a loss, a harsh bell rang, as if a saw had torn the surrounding air.

Casey's phone was left in the living room. It was from Marina. She hurriedly told him about Casey's injury. She wanted to find out other people's phone numbers in her phone's address book, but there was only Marina's number in it.

The second day, she called Marina and wanted to ask about Casey's condition. Unexpectedly, she got the news of Casey's death. When she fell down the stairs, her head was hit seriously and she died not long after she arrived at the hospital.

Marina also asked her to go to the villa on Wednesday to mourn Casey. When she knew that Casey was dead, she panicked and worried that she had pushed Casey down.

On Wednesday, she went to the villa alone.

That day, it was gloomy and dark.

The village was quieter than usual, and the dense pine forest around was dark under the cover of mist. From time to time, the sound of cold wind whistling came from the col, like the desolation of ghosts.

The front of the villa was full of flowers, which were in clusters. They were so dense that the leaves and branches could not be seen. There was only a bright red color. The first time she came here, she stayed here for a while to appreciate these beautiful flowers.

But today, they seemed to be extraordinarily gorgeous, excessively and strangely gorgeous, as if they had been tainted with blood after killing. She hurriedly turned her head away and walked forward.

The door was slightly open. When she slowly pushed it open, she couldn't help shivering as if a gloomy cold wind was coming at her.

The living room was covered by a vast, single white color. The cold color expelled all the anger, and also deeply hurt her eyes.

Marina stood there, her face as pale as the surroundings.
