Chapter 389:
Dustin yearned to dismiss it as a fleeting lapse, but recalling his elaborate efforts to cloak his digital trail, he found himself at a loss for words.
At that very instant, the wail of police sirens pierced the air.
Dustin appeared utterly distraught, clinging to a final plea toward Amelia, but she spoke before he could say anything. “You can’t push the blame on others. You’ve brought this upon yourself p>
Even though Dustin had been apprehended, the app was already released, casting a pall of discouragement over Ritchie and his colleagues.
Noticing their downcast spirits, Amelia said cautiously, “We have three days left before the launch. Could you develop an even better version in that window p>
Ritchie and his team were momentarily stunned by Amelia’s proposition. When they remained silent, Amelia worried her request might be too demanding and was about to reassure them when Ritchie suddenly spoke with excitement.
“Mrs. Stewart, you still trust our team p>
Before Amelia could utter a word, Ritchie continued, “Given your unwavering belief in us, we won’t let you down p>

Catching the flicker of astonishment in Amelia’s gaze, Wyatt offered a faint, knowing smile. “Just got here p>

Wyatt, though already privy to Barrie’s detailed briefing, listened with rapt attention as Amelia recounted the day’s events.
When Amelia finished speaking, Wyatt leaned forward, his voice soft yet deliberate. “If Ritchie’s crew fails to deliver a new app in three days, what is your next move for the press conference p>
Amelia sighed, her brow furrowing. “Truth be told, I’m still grasping for a plan p>
Wyatt’s eyes glinted with a spark of mischief. “I’ve got an idea,” he murmured, leaning closer to whisper a suggestion in Amelia’s ear.
Amelia’s eyes widened, a mix of intrigue and hesitation flickering across her face. “Isn’t that a bit too much p>
“It’s just a suggestion. All up to you whether to take it. Even if you go for it, the Figueroa family wouldn’t be able to say anything, considering Huntley is the one at fault this time p>
