Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

+25 BONUS Chapter 46 Chapter 46 In the conference room , Lauren asked everyone else to leave , leaving only Andrew and Francesca behind .

Lauren , did you know from the start that Paul was the culprit ? Francesca asked eagerly as soon as the room emptied .

Lauren rolled her eyes and said , If I had known it was him , I wouldve just had him arrested instead of setting up these theatrics .

Francesca exclaimed in surprise , So you didnt know who it was ? But you acted like you did ! Lauren smiled and explained , I didnt know , which was why Dr.

Lloyd suggested this trick to force their hand .

All I had to do was claim one glass was poisoned , and Paul cracked under the pressure .

Francesca stared at Andrew , shocked .

I didnt expect you to be so cunning ! She was impressed by his ability to devise such a trick , which left the culprit with no choice but to surrender .

Although we found out it was Paul , we still fell one step short , Andrew remarked .

Laurens beautiful face hardened as she agreed , Indeed .

That bastard Michael had already poisoned Paul beforehand .

Even though I know hes behind this , I cant prove it ! I dont understand how Paul willingly took poison .

Thats literally suicide ! Francesca wondered aloud .

Andrew shook his head and explained , Paul didnt take it willingly .

If he had been , he wouldnt have tried to expose Michael before he died .

Michael must have secretly poisoned him earlier as insurance .

Francesca shuddered and said , I never imagined Michael could be so ruthless .

Lauren smiled , looking at the bright side .

Either way , we forced him to show his true colors .

Dr.

Lloyd , youre truly my lucky star .

You saved me time and time again ! Ms.

Rhodes , you should be very careful of your cousin .

If Im not mistaken , he likely has powerful backing , Andrew warned her ! Lauren was startled and asked , Dr.

Lloyd , what have you noticed ? The poison that killed Paul is called Deaths Draught , and its rare and lethal .

A mere playboy like Michael wouldnt have access to something like that , so someone must be helping him , Andrew explained.

Francesca chimed in , Hes right .

Grandpa once mentioned that poison is a weapon of the underworld , not something an average person would come by .

+25 BONUS Chapter 46 Laurens face turned cold as she uttered , If he wants to play dirty , then I wont show any mercy either .

Meanwhile , in Micheals office .

Michael was violently smashing everything in sight , his face contorted with rage .

He was consumed by anger , roaring , That bastard ruined everything with one move ! I lost it all ! Pauls death did not bother him .

He had planned to sacrifice that pawn anyway when Lauren started suspecting the executives .

What infuriated him was how close he had come to being exposed .

If he had not taken the risk of attacking Paul , he would probably be facing prison time right now .

Lauren might be smart , but with my backers strategy , Im not worried about her , Michael muttered after his outburst .

But now her pretty boy advisor is becoming a real problem ! +25 BONUS Chapter 47
