Chapter 105 Entering the Game

The female employee's heart was racing, and she couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.

She wondered if Lewis would believe her.

"Oh? You really nailed it this time." Lewis praised.

Just then, Daphne pushed the door open and walked in.

The female employee shot Daphne a triumphant look.

Seeing Daphne enter, Lewis continued, "Since your negotiation skills are so impressive, it would be a waste to keep you in this position. How about a promotion?"

The female employee's eyes lit up, almost as if she was hearing things. She asked anxiously, "Mr. Anderson, are you really planning to promote me?"

"Yes, I just sent a message to your department supervisor. He should notify you soon," Lewis said calmly.

The female employee excitedly pulled out her phone and saw the notification from her supervisor about her promotion.

Her eyes welled up with tears of joy as she took a few steps toward Lewis and bowed deeply. "Mr. Anderson, I promise to work even harder and not let you down!"

The scent of her perfume lingered in the air between them.

Daphne couldn't believe her achievements were being claimed by someone else. However, Lewis clearly sensed something was off but chose not to address it, she sneered.

Maybe her heart had been numb from pain for so long that she felt nothing now.

Daphne placed the documents she was holding on the desk, glanced at the two of them, and turned to leave the office.

At the door, she finally released her tightly clenched fist.

She looked down at her palm, which was marked with deep nail imprints.

Suddenly, her phone suddenly rang.

She opened the message and saw it was from a group chat.

Several elderly residents at the nursing home had been poisoned?

Daphne frowned and muttered, "How could they be poisoned?"

With that thought, she hurriedly drove to the hospital.

After some inquiries, Daphne finally found the room where the elderly residents were staying.

As she entered the room and saw the elderly lying in bed, her heart ached.

Daphne sat beside one of the elderly residents, looked up at them, and asked gently, "How are you feeling? Is there any discomfort?"

The elderly resident shook their head. "Don't worry, I felt a bit unwell earlier, but I'm much better now."

Daphne sighed in relief. "You must take good care of yourselves."

The elderly resident looked at Daphne with a loving expression and nodded slightly. "We will take good care of ourselves. Don't worry."

After speaking, the elderly resident coughed. Daphne patted their back to help them breathe easier.

Then, Daphne noticed a water jug nearby. She bent down, picked it up, and poured a cup of water for the elderly resident.

As she put the jug down, she saw a contract on the table. Daphne picked it up and flipped through it.

Why were the latest contracts filled with unfair terms? The one Lewis showed her yesterday wasn't like this!

Daphne turned to the elderly resident and asked urgently, "Is this the new contract you received?"

The elderly resident took a sip of water, glanced at the contract in Daphne's hand, and nodded slightly. "Yeah, is there something wrong with it?"

Daphne clenched the contract, suppressing her anger, and put it back on the table with a forced smile. "No, there's nothing wrong."

She felt foolish for trusting the wrong person. If she had known, she wouldn't have mentioned it to Lewis. Otherwise, how could the contract terms have changed so drastically?

He sacrificed lives for profit. Daphne's face darkened, like a storm brewing.

"Take care of yourselves. I'll come back later." Daphne stood up and addressed the group.

The elderly residents were friendly.

"Daphne, if you have something to do, go ahead. Don't worry about us."

"Yeah, your work is more important."

As Daphne left the room, she heard voices from around the corner. She walked quietly to listen.

"Mr. Myers, are you sure I can get this amount of insurance?" A man with black-rimmed glasses chatted with the person ahead of him.

From their conversation, it seemed the man in front, dressed in a suit, was Mr. Myers.

Jagger Myers adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said seriously, "Of course, why would I lie to you?"

Afraid the man wouldn't believe him, he quickly added, "If I lied, you could report me, and my career would be affected."

Suddenly, Jagger felt someone watching them and shouted, "Who's eavesdropping?"

Seeing Jagger approaching, Daphne hurriedly left.

Jagger stepped out, saw no one in the hallway, and scratched his head. "That's strange, maybe..."

"Hey! Mr. Myers, let's continue our conversation," the man urged.

The next day, an insider from Synergy Group exposed online that Lewis had colluded with an insurance company to buy life insurance for nursing home residents, with the beneficiaries being the group’s families who would receive part of the money.

The internet erupted, with countless netizens condemning the Anderson Group.

ShadowWhisper: [The Anderson Group is shameless, treating lives like they're worthless!]

NebulaDreamer: [I agree with the comment above!]

At this critical moment, Synergy Group insiders exposed Lewis's unfair contract terms online.

Lewis was instantly criticized and became a trending topic.

Daphne read the online comments on her phone.

Why did it feel like a trap? As if the pit had been dug long ago, waiting for her to fall in.

Daphne planned to ask the families for clarification but saw Jagger leaving the hospital as she arrived.

She changed her mind and decided to follow Jagger.

Daphne was cautious, so Jagger didn't notice her presence.

The car stopped at a restaurant, and as Jagger got out, Daphne followed.

Entering the restaurant, Daphne's eyes widened in shock when she saw the person standing next to Jagger.
