Though still doubtful, he narrowed his eyes and said, “So, it's you!” All of a sudden, Elektra widened her eyes, and she was on the verge of a mental breakdown.

In response, she shook her head slightly, and her lips finally parted. However, she couldn't find the words to explain herself.

“Looks like it's really you!” Disappointment filled Lucian's eyes, and he opened the door wide before walking back into the room.

“Cin. Explain yourself!” Right then, Elektra felt as though a thousand daggers had just pierced through her heart. At the stime, she was filled with regret and frustration.

At that moment, she was living in her worst nightmare.

“Don't worry. Christina has fled. However, | think I've figured out how everything unfolded,” Lucian uttered, his tone emotionless.

Elektra felt dead inside, and she couldn't bring herself to enter the room and face Lucian.

Meanwhile, Lucian was sitting on the couch with his arms folded before his chest and his body slightly leaning forward. He appeared to still be deep in thought, trying to piece everything together.

“So, you've been working together with Christina to make this plan work by adding harmful substances to the product. What's your motive?” Lucian glanced at Elektra.

His gaze remained calm although Elektra was sobbing.

It's only natural that Lucian is baffled. After all, Flora Verba Group's success benefitsthe most. In the end, however, | was the one who destroyed everything.
