Life at the Top

Moana had completely turned the narrative around and made herself into the savior of the petroleum merchants. She had also elevated the Rothschild family name to a whole new level.

Murik found her words preposterous because he knew the whole truth, but the others did not, and they started to believe her.

Murik did not know how to prove Benita’s innocence anymore. After some thought, he decided to move to the side while Moana continued to lie to the previously disqualified merchants.

Murik pulled out his phone and secretly sent Benita a message.

“Mr. Murik? Why didn’t he just call me if he needed to talk?” Benita unlocked his phone and read the message.

“Something bad has happened in Bashra. Return immediately!”

Benita tried to call Murik immediately, but the latter’s phone had been turned off.

Now, he understood that Murik was not in a situation where he could pick up the phone, but still required Benita’s presence in Bashra immediately.
