Chapter 173 The next day, Aveline arrived at work to find another pile of chaotic tasks waiting for her.

10153 However, today she wasn't angry; she was looking forward to lunchtime.

At noon, Russell called to tell her the results were in and had been emailed to her.

"Thank you, Russ!" Aveline said excitedly.

Russell replied slowly, "Knowing which vegetables are poisoned doesn't prove your innocence." Aveline paused. "I think these vegetables were bought at the supermarket. There might have been an issue there. I need to check the surveillance footage." Russell said, "It's been so many days; it might be difficult." Aveline's lips tightened. She knew that if she had checked on the day it happened, it might have been easier. But she had to try.

Russell spoke casually, "Of course, if you cook ten more meals for me, I might be able to figure something out." Aveline couldn't help but laugh. "Russ, don't you have a chef at home?" Russell replied, "Just say if you'll do it or not." "Deal," Aveline agreed without hesitation. Cooking one meal or ten meals made no difference to her. Plus, it was an easy task.

M She felt even more grateful to Russell, as he had chosen a way that minimized her burden.

"Alright, wait for my news," Russell said, then hur. up.

Aveline exhaled deeply and opened her email to check. She found that the poisoned vegetables were the ones she had added to her cart later.

She carefully recalled the details of that day. She remembered bumping into someone after picking up the vegetables, causing them to fall to the ground. That person helped her pick them up.

Could something have happened during that time? Aveline tried to remember the person's face, but she couldn't.

Rubbing her temples, her phone suddenly rang. It was a call from the police station. The food test results were out, and they wanted her to cin.

Aveline got up and went to ask Gwen for leave.

Without even looking at her, Gwen said coldly, "It's working hours. You can't leave without permission." "So, I'm here to ask for leave," Aveline replied.

Gwen retorted, "We're swamped. If you leave, who will do your work?" Aveline paused. Was this her way of refusing her request? "Then just dock my pay," she said, turning to leave.

Gwen was stunned. "Hey, you, cback here!" How could she be so brazen? The higher-ups didn't favor her anymore, so where did she get the confidence to act so boldly? Immediately, Gwen ordered that Aveline's pay be docked by three times.

Aveline went to the police station and got the test report, which matched the one Russell had sent her.

She asked, "Can you find out how these vegetables were poisoned?"

matte The police officer replied, "We are still investigating. This is a serious matter that has endangered public safety, so we will definitely give you an explanation." Aveline asked, "How long will it take?" The officer said, "We're not sure. We need to follow the procedures." Aveline fell silent.

How long would this process take? A week? A month? Or six months? By the tthe investigation was complete, it would be too late to matter. She didn't say anything more, taking the report and leaving.

Just before she got back to the company, her phone rang. She m looked at the screen and saw that it En was Lucas calling. HIS BONUS.
