Chapter 761

After chatting with Tom last night, Rachel learned that his bias towards Harold, whether intentional or not, was due to a sense of guilt in his heart.

However, Tom had always been a person of integrity and never allowed personal feelings to interfere with his judgments.

Therefore, when he met Harold again, he wanted to do everything he could to make up for him.

Using past grudges for revenge was indeed a convincing reason.

However, Harold had already made a name for himself in politics. Why would he risk everything he had worked so hard to achieve only to settle old scores?

Therefore, he must be lying!

Harold raised his hand and took off his glasses. A melancholy smile appeared on his lips. “It seems like you already know everything.”

“That’s only limited to what you want me to know.” Rachel lifted her eyes and casually fiddled with her MP3 recorder. “Who is it making you target the Johnson family behind their backs? Is it the newly appointed deputy director six months ago? Or Alfredo George, who has shown you favor, or perhaps a longtime confidante and lover?”

When Harold heard Rachel accurately mention the names of the three people, his pupils trembled with fear.

He was not only afraid of the two people mentioned by Rachel but also of her.

This woman in front of him was much more unpredictable than he imagined.

He thought that dealing with a mere woman would not require too much effort on his part.

However, reality proved him gravely wrong.

“Harold, I didn’t deliberately conceal the news when I took you away. Twelve whole hours have passed, and they haven’t shown any intention of rescuing you. What does that mean? You know it very well.” Rachel
