The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella) novel Chapter 1418

Devon heard the deputy chairman say that, and he let out a cold laugh, "If you say my mentor can't oppose it, what about someone else?"

The deputy chairman was taken aback, not quite understanding Devon's point. He wasn't the only one; everyone else in the room felt the same confusion.

At that moment, there was a commotion at the entrance of the conference hall, and several officers in police uniforms strode in. "Who is Presley?"

Seeing the officers come in looking for Presley, everyone exchanged puzzled glances before turning their attention back to Presley.

Presley stood in front of the conference table, his hands constantly on the edge. His expression changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and responded, "I am. May I ask what matter brings you here?"

The lead officer walked up to Presley, first showing his badge, then said, "You are suspected of being involved in multiple missing persons cases. Please come with us."

At those words, everyone in the room looked at Presley with inquiry, shock, and disbelief.

Sensing the unusual gazes from all directions, Presley's grip tightened slightly, but he maintained a humble smile without breaking, "Officer, could there be some mistake? As a law-abiding citizen, how could I be involved in missing persons cases?"

Seeing how calm Presley was, the lead officer couldn't help but sneer internally. If it wasn't for the evidence they already had, he might have believed Presley was innocent.

"Whether there's a mistake, Mr. Presley knows best," the officer said calmly.

Then he signaled to his colleagues, and immediately two other officers stepped forward, positioning themselves on either side of Presley as if to prevent him from escaping.

Presley saw this, and the smile on his face vanished instantly. After all, he was the president of the Pharmacists' Association and knew top people in the police department. These officers were showing him no respect.
