Chapter 113
“Stop.” Oscar immediately interrupted, “Call the cops now. Whether these foods have issues or not, once it starts a commotion, it’s our company’s reputation that suffers!” “Oh? So, what’s your take on handling this?” Arabella looked at him with interest.
“As long as you apologize to Dave, we’ll pretend this never happened.”
Arabella found it amusing. She gave Dean a nod, and he immediately dialed the police.
“You.” Oscar was furious. This girl was playing dirty!
Well, if she wanted to call the police, they’re not scared‘ Oscar knew some people in the police station; they could help!
That girl was too naive.
He took out his phone and sent a text.
After a while, a few police officers arrived; the lead officer was a stranger to Oscar. The officer listened to the story and ordered his men to take samples of the kitchen ingredients back for testing.
“Oh, by the way.” Arabella hacked into the surveillance system and restored all the deleted footage. “I’ve sent all the surveillance from the past year to your official email.” “Ms. Bennett, we appreciate your help with this minor issue!” The leading officer, Joe, was very polite: “Rest assured, if the test results show their ingredients are sub–standard, we’ll handle it by the law!”
If they violated food safety laws, they could be fined, their license could be revoked, and in severe cases, they could go to jail.
Oscar had a bad feeling about this: “Bro, are you new here? I didn’t see Kevin West today.”
“You know him?” Captain Joe glanced at Oscar, sounding unimpressed. “He just got suspended today; you need him for something?”
“Oh, no.”
“Good. Someone reported him for accepting bribes. If you’re texting him for help now, you’re basically giving evidence to the police, and his charges would only get worse.” Hearing Captain Joe say this, Oscar’s heart sank. Damn, he just texted Kevin West for help, saying he had a situation to deal with and would reward him as usual. This was bad news.
Oscar was sweating bullets, as was Dave, who was continuously wiping off the sweat from his forehead. He never thought his years in the business world would end at the hands of a young girl.
A police officer came up to him and said, “Please come with us for an investigation.”
“Mr. Oscar, help me.” Dave looked at Oscar desperately, he couldn’t be taken by the police, or he would hardly get out of the police station!
“I got you; don’t worry.” Oscar lightly patted his back, whispering, “Don’t admit to anything; I’ll have a lawyer there for you soon.”
“You better hurry.” Dave was uneasy, fearing the worst.
“I know, relax.”
“Oh, by the way.” Arabella suddenly said, “Dave owns seven or eight other restaurants.”
Dave tensed up. What was this girl up to? Did she think the situation wasn’t chaotic enough and want to add fuel to the fire?
“Dave always wears designer clothes and lives in luxury houses, but his account always shows that he’s barely getting by and can’t pay taxes; it’s hard to understand.”
Captain Joe understood immediately after hearing this: “Take him back for a thorough investigation!”
“Yes, sir!”
After Dave was taken away by the police, Arabella raised an eyebrow, glanced at Oscar, and then headed for her office.
Many employees wanted to take leave to get a health check.
“Since this issue is the result of our company’s lack of oversight, tell the headquarters to give them an extra month’s salary so they can buy some stuff to replenish their
nutrition.”
“Got it.” Dean immediately accepted the task.
Just then, Phillip sent her a message: “Bella, are you working? Tired? Hungry? I’ll have some food sent over for you.”
At the end of the message, he also sent á cute emoji.
