Chapter 1460: Crossing the River and Destroying the Bridge
"You guys worked really hard, but it's a pity that the stone chamber you discovered had to be opened by my senior sister!"
Steve sneered and mocked, and Vanessa's face suddenly became a little embarrassed: "I didn't ask her to help, she was just too enthusiastic..."
"So now you're destroying the bridge?"
Steve sneered and said bluntly, "Vanessa, I know you've always disliked my senior. It's a pity that you probably forgot that when you started the excavation, you were too eager to complete the project and an accident occurred. It was my senior who intervened and persuaded you to keep your job as an archaeologist. Now you've turned your back on me!"
Vanessa's face changed instantly, turning pale and blue, but she still pretended to be calm and replied with a frown, "Steve, don't go off on a tangent. I know you blindly believe her because she is your senior, but some things may not work just because you believe them!"
"I studied under Professor Fred, and my senior is his adopted daughter. I know my senior's character better than anyone here!"
Steve sneered, glanced at everyone present, and said coldly: "If you don't want to help, forget it, I just ask you not to hold us back!"
"Steve, you don't have to act so superior. We are all colleagues..." someone couldn't help but advise.
"Colleagues?" Steve snorted coldly and said mercilessly, "If it weren't for Mr. Li's donation and my senior's hard work, this archaeological project would never have been possible! Don't forget, the person you maliciously slandered is Mr. Li's fiancée! I think if Mr. Li knew, he would regret sponsoring you guys for this archaeological project! And I don't even bother to be a colleague with you!"
He walked up to Vanessa Campbell and said coldly, word by word, "As for you, Vanessa Campbell, don't think that by deliberately spreading rumors and ruining my reputation, you can succeed in your conspiracy and take all the achievements and reputation of this archaeological project! Your ability and character are not even good enough to carry my shoes!"
After Steve said this, he turned and left.
Vanessa Campbell looked at Steve's leaving figure with a grim face, shaking with anger, and clenched her hands tightly.
She had merely put forward her own hypothesis, and many people agreed with it. Steve actually said this about himself in front of everyone. It was really...
Vanessa looked up and saw that several archaeological members who had been chatting with her well were looking at her with strange eyes, muttering something in a low voice, and their faces suddenly darkened.
"What are you looking at? Is there anything wrong with my previous speculation? You are afraid of Li Jinxing and Steve, but I am not! The most important thing now is to recover the lost cultural relics!"
After Vanessa finished speaking, everyone stopped whispering and turned around to disperse, but still shook their heads and said pessimistically: "Recovering cultural relics is easy to say, but the police have no clue. What should we do?"
"That's right. Steve's archaeological team hasn't continued their work, and Nie Yao is missing. The police have been checking on us every few days, and we haven't had the energy to continue with the archaeological work..."
"Alas, I don't know what's going on with Nie Yao. If tomb robbers kidnapped her, they must have a purpose!"
Everyone was talking to each other, and everyone was feeling a little heavy.
