Chapter 2327

“There’s no need to be so pessimistic, Murik. Do you still remember Osmond? The chemist we met when we first came to Bashra.”

Murik looked up as he recalled who Marsha was referring to.

“I do, but didn’t he die during the riot in Saul’s petroleum field? He did, but the testing methods he used still remain. How else would Amber test the other petroleum merchants?”

Murik nodded at Marsha’s reasoning.

“What I want to say is that I have suspicions about Osmond. That’s why I had someone steal a few of his test samples and sent them to the capital Bardot for testing. Once we have the test report, we’ll be able to completely understand just what relationship Amber has with the higher-ups of the Petroleum Chamber of Commerce…”

“Do you understand what I’m saying?”

Murik breathed in deeply after hearing what Marsha said. He would never have imagined Marsha to already prepare for this in secret.

“I see… No wonder you’re still so confident. But does Amber know what you’ve done?” Murik felt that as someone directing what was happening, Amber could not possibly be left out of the loop.

If she truly had no idea, there was no way Amber could completely control everything that was happening. Marsha already knew that Murik would be worried about that.

“Calm down. I didn’t say she isn’t aware. In fact, Amber knows exactly what I’m doing and has tried to stop me.”

Marsha quickly told him about the danger Brock faced in the capital Bardot.

“What? You failed?”

“Mhmm. Judging from the results, we failed… But there are always exceptions. No one could have foreseen me stealing more than just one sample. And Amber evidently thinks that she has already succeeded in destroying my plans, not knowing that I still have an additional one.”

Hope ignited in Murik’s heart again.

“I understand what you mean now. Can you get your hands on this piece of crucial evidence now?”

Marsha smiled. “It won’t be easy, but I need you to trust me. I need your help to create an opportunity where I can publicly expose Amber for who she is.”

Murik fell silent for a moment, a million thoughts running through his mind.

Suddenly, he was reminded of what happened to his good friend Saul. He knew he had to work together with Abraham.

Otherwise, countless people would end up like Saul did if he allowed Amber to continue with what she was doing. Therefore, Murik grabbed the wineglass on the table and poured its contents down his throat. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

“Alright! I’ll do it!”

Marsha saw Murik’s eyes burn bright with determination.

“That’s great, Mr. Murik. Return first and act as if tonight never existed. I will contact you if we should meet here.”

Murik nodded. Then, he left the second floor of the bar and made his way home. At the same time, Marsha turned around to look at Jasmine.

“Brock still hasn’t sent the results of the second sample back. Something feels wrong, and I think he might be in trouble again.”

Jasmine found this suspicious too and asked. “Did Amber’s men get him?”

Marsha gave it some thought before shaking his head.

“Unlikely. If she were behind it, we would have gotten news of Brock’s death a longtime ago.”
