Chapter 28 Tracker
Now, thanks to Knox’s incitement, the company’s morale was in disarray.
It’s all that scoundrel’s fault!
“Watts, you’re really pushing your luck!”
Lucas glared at Knox, a cold smile curling on his lips.
“What did you say?”
Knox’s expression darkened as he fixed his gaze on Lucas, his eyes filled with hatred.

“I said you’re pushing your luck! Just take your paycheck and leave–it’s that simple! I was ready to ignore someone like you as long as you stayed away from Ms. Xavier. But now, you’re forcing me to expose you!” Lucas’s eyes flashed with intensity as he spoke firmly.
“Expose? What does he mean by that?”
“What happened to Mr. Watts?”
Hearing this, the employees of CEL Cosmetics company looked on in confusion.
Knox’s eyes flickered for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure and angrily asked, “Kid, what are you getting at? Don’t play games!”
Lucas smirked and pulled out a phone from his pocket.
When Knox saw the phone, his expression changed, and he shouted, “That’s my phone! You dared to steal in the company?”
Turning to Celine, he accused, “Ms. Xavier, where did you find this driver? He’s nothing but a thief!”
Celine frowned, casting a questioning glare at Lucas.
Indeed, the phone belonged to Knox, and Lucas had easily swiped it while casually throwing an arm around him.
Now, Lucas smiled and taunted, “As long as you admit it’s your phone, that’s all I need!”
Then, he opened WhatsApp and handed the phone to Azalea. “Hey, beauty. You were just defending this Watts guy, right? So there won’t be any accusations of me making things up, why don’t you read this message aloud for everyone?”
Azalea, the HR manager, was momentarily stunned but instinctively took the phone.
At that moment, Knox’s furious expression changed dramatically!
Swoop!
He stepped forward, trying to snatch the phone back.
In the next instant, a strong arm blocked his path, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t budge an inch.

“This is my phone, and it has private conversations with my girlfriend. You have no right to read them aloud in public!” Knox shouted, his voice filled with agitation.
“Oh? You’ve labeled your girlfriend as ‘Mysterious Person? I have to admit, you’re quite the romantic, Lucas teased, then turned sharply to Azalea. “Read it!”
As Azalea glanced at the messages, uncertainty filled her eyes as she looked at Knox, then began to read aloud.
“A tracker has already been placed on her clothes.”
“Good job!”
“When will the promised two million be transferred?”
“Don’t worry. Once we succeed, the money will be yours.”
“Who are you, and what do you want?”
“You don’t need to know!”
Although it was a brief exchange, the messages revealed a lot of information!
After Azalea finished reading, Celine’s expression turned cold as she fixed her intense gaze on Knox, filled with anger.
The other employees in the room also looked at Knox with questioning and speculative glances.
“Mr. Watts, the ‘she‘ you referred to in your conversation must be Ms. Xavier, right? I heard you’ve been pursuing her secretary, Cherry. Given that Cherry is responsible for Ms. Xavier’s work attire, you used that opportunity to plant a disguised tracker in Ms. Xavier’s shirt, didn’t you?”
Lucas spoke loudly, word by word, and then said to everyone present, “You may not know that Ms. Xavier was almost assassinated yesterday! The assassin intercepted and tried to kill her on the road she had to pass. The reason why the other party knew Ms. Xavier’s driving route accurately, I don’t need to explain, everyone knows why, right?”
As his words sank in, a wave of shock swept through the crowd.
Celine glared at Knox, her eyes blazing with fury.
She had narrowly escaped death yesterday, and the real culprit was revealed to be the head of her own company’s security department!
“Bullsh*t! I don’t know what you’re talking about. You’re just making wild accusations!” Knox shouted, his face shifting between red and pale as he desperately tried to defend himself.
“Still in denial? How do you explain the tracker on you? Don’t tell me it was provided by the company,” Lucas asked, a cold smirk on his face.
“Tracker? What tracker? I don’t have any tracker on me! You’re just making baseless accusations!”
Knox was momentarily stunned as if he thought he’d caught Lucas in a lie.
But in the next moment, a sharp pain shot through his wrist. Before he could react, Lucas yanked the watch from his wrist with force.
