He continued to listen to the man, not missing a single word.
What the man said at first wasn't much different from what Selene Larkin had reported.
The events were the same, just described slightly differently.
But upon hearing a particular sentence, Miles Sanctus's expression changed slightly. He cut the man off, "Are you sure? Miss Sterling said that River Larkin pursued her?"
The man was taken aback, not understanding why Boss Saint would specifically ask about this. Still, he nodded without hesitation. "Yes, Boss. Miss Sterling did say that."
His voice gradually trailed off as he saw the coldness in his boss's eyes. He felt a sense of unease.
'Did I say something wrong?' He wasn't sure, but it felt like an icy aura was emanating from his boss.
Miles Sanctus's voice was much colder than before. "Tell me everything she said when she mentioned this. Don't leave out a single word."
The man nodded, recalled how she had said it, and then repeated it verbatim for his boss.
