"Someone bought off the factory, so there are some problems with the machines, and the ones with the
biggest problem were the batch that we gave you… It's fortunate that nothing happened during this
period of time."
As Hesper listened to Rickard's explanation, she couldn't shake the feeling that he was alluding to
something deeper. What did he mean by the batch they gave her having the biggest problem? Was
someone trying to target the Duval Group and accidentally ensnared them in the process, or was Lane
Holdings being attacked through their affiliation with the Duvals?
Before she could voice her thoughts, Rickard interrupted, "I'm tied up at the moment. I'll contact you
when I have a moment. Please investigate the Halwart Factory if you can. I suspect something is amiss NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
with their person-in-charge."
After saying this, Rickard hung up the phone. Hesper was left holding her phone, lost in thought.
'Halwart Factory? Wasn't that the same factory that fell for my bait in the business competition with the
Duvals?'
She never imagined that Rickard would work with that factory again after she left.
Without hesitation, she picked up the phone again and dialed her assistant. "Renee, please come to
my office immediately. We need to head to the Halwart Factory right away."
"Understood."

Those reporters were like a group of dogs that caught the smell of meat. When a large company like
Duval Group encountered a problem, apart from their competitors, media workers like them were the
biggest beneficiaries. Whoever could get first-hand information would have an easy shortcut to
success.
Rickard sat in his office, watching as Benji sneaked out. The company was in chaos with reporters
waiting in the lobby for Rickard to come out and answer their questions.
As Rickard examined the machine data on the documents, he noticed significant discrepancies from
the blueprints and furrowed his brow.
This factory had been a long-standing partner, and such an incident had never happened before, so the
messed-up data must have been intentional. It was evident that they knew this batch of machines was
the only one in the entire country that could satisfy this particular technology, and that's why they
targeted it.
'Someone must have leaked the information to them, but only a few people knew about this batch of
machines, so how did they find out?' Rickard thought to himself.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door. Instead of opening it right away, Rickard walked over
and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me! Dick, open the door!" Sophia's panicked voice came from outside the door. Rickard opened
the door, and Sophia squeezed in through the gap, panting heavily with a tense expression on her face.
"What's going on? Why are there so many people suddenly blocking the company? Someone
recognized me and wanted to catch me!" Sophia was a bit frightened. When she turned her head, she
saw that Rickard's face was ugly.
Thinking of the situation outside, Sophia realized that something might have happened to the Duval
Group.
"What happened to the Duval Group?" she asked hesitantly.
She did not get an answer from Rickard, so Sophia took out her phone and checked the news, only to
find numerous reports about the non-compliant machine data of Duval Group causing the death of
workers.
"How could this happen?!"
