Chapter 1163
Casually holding a book and sauntering down the stairs, Cory had just given him a big surprise.
As he stepped out the door, Jaime’s call came in.
Jaime, who was obviously spooked, had a whiny tone to his voice. “Cory, that was way out of line!”
Cory remained cool as a cucumber. “Was it really that scary?”
“You’re the mastermind behind this and you’re asking me?” Jaime shouted back
“I’m just a kid. I can’t handle scary stuff, so I just had the system send out some random creepy things. I didn’t
actually look at any of it
Jaime: “…..”
This kid, his self-preservation instincts are off the charts

“I got it! I got it! She was the one who claimed not to be afraid of bugs!” Jaime replied, half laughing, half crying.
“By the way, when is your holiday? You still going to Bane Corporation? Want to swing by my place?”

“President Silverman, isn’t the list of people you want to sue a bit excessive? Hector asked, clearly overwhelmed.

“Alright.” Hector agreed reluctantly. “After the results of the appraisal came out. Olivia fainted and was taken to the

Til handle it. You just focus on your job,” Wayne stated before ending the call.
“Olivia is trying to use the fact that she saved my life as leverage to manipulate me!” Wayne uttered coldly.
Rosalynn gently caressed the back of his hand.
“Just hold on a little longer. Once we gather evidence proving that she wasn’t in Central Park during the incident,
