Bettie's words rang out just as Alex picked up the phone, and the words fell right into his ears.Alex froze, his whole body as if someone had injected a potent anesthetic. Then, Alex's lap began to roll up a stream of cold air from within."What? Jowley, you give Bettie the phone."On this side, Jowley, after hearing half the story from Bettie, and half the attitude from Alex, also guessed what was going on and felt the importance of the problem. Although he didn't know who Jessica was, it was not someone from the Forest Corporation.Jowley passed the phone to Bettie.Seizing the opportunity, Alex immediately asked:"Bettie, what you said earlier, can you try to repeat it?"After all, Bettie was not one to lie often, and she did not have this experience, so now, when facing Alex directly, she couldn't help but tremble a little and lose her temper. But Bettie reminded herself she couldn't kick her foot with a rock. We have gone too far to draw back; Bettie hid her panic inside, then p
Alex stood up, then followed Jowley to the car. Jowley was always standing by his side, helping him, as if he was afraid Alex would fall off at any moment."Chairman, shall we go to Anderw's house now?"In the car, Jowley asked."No, go to the Locke Corporation first."As Alex speculated, Jessica must be working at Locke Corporation right now. Besides, deep in his heart, he wanted the same because he didn't want to go to Jessica's house right now; there, if he had met Mrs. Andrew, it would be even more troublesome. Alex didn't want to see her again.The car rolls on the road. Since it is not rush hour, the road is very open. Less than thirty minutes later, the car stopped at the entrance of the Locke Corporation."Chairman, wait here for me; I'll go in and arrange an appointment with Miss Jessica first.""YES."Alex also feels that it is reasonable, no matter how his legs are now, not convenient to walk, how limited, or how. And he doesn't appear in public.Jowley handled everything v
Alex cut off Mrs. Andrew's words directly, not wanting to hear any more of her redundant words.Mrs. Andrew was stunned; perhaps Alex had never been so cold to her in the past, so she was not used to it for a while. But very quickly, Mrs. Andrew regained her "wisdom"; perhaps she succeeded, maybe Alex heard that Jessica was sick, or somehow Alex knew. Okay, and see Jessica. All in all, Mrs. Andrew feels she has been a resounding success."Ah, Jessica, she's sick; she's in her room...""Sick?" Alex frowned, though he needed to determine whether this information was true or false. But right now, the most urgent thing is to wait to validate it. Alex directly pushed Mrs. Andrew away, then rushed to the second floor."Jowley, hold her back."Jowley obeyed, and Mrs. Andrew screamed and struggled like a fish caught in a net. Meanwhile, Alex quickly reached Jessica's room; he reached out to turn the doorknob but found the door locked.The door was locked, which was not a good thing, and Alex
Mrs. Andrew, of course, didn't want to go to a nursing home, and she certainly couldn't go there; she had a lot of work to do and a lot of unfinished plans. A nursing home is no different from a prison, or in other words, a grave for older people, Mrs. Andrew thought. In it, the days go by highly dully; there is no casino, no trendy shops, can't spend money, can't eat delicious food, can't watch the things she likes. And Mrs. Andrew said that was the torment and torment of older people. No, she's not old, either. Mrs. Andrew thought so and was highly displeased."Jessica, you are a traitor; you are an unfilial one. You want to put me in a nursing home so you don't have to worry, so you can bring men home and do whatever you want without anyone taking care of you!? I won't go in there; even if I die, I won't!"Jessica was too lazy to argue with her grandmother. And this also surprised Alex momentarily because she had never been so fierce with Mrs. Andrew. Until now, Jessica, in his eye
Mr. Andrew carried a load of vegetables, meat, and food. When he saw Mrs. Andrew suddenly rushing out and bumping into him like that, he was surprised:"Where are you going? Why are you in such a hurry?"But now Mrs. Andrew was not in the mood to scold or argue with Mr. Andrew; she hurried to get up and wanted to continue running, but it was too late now for the people behind her to chase and arrest her.o0oAlex's house,Jowley has been gone for a long time, and Bettie has been restless ever since.Did something happen, she wondered. She picked up the phone, wanted to call Alex, but didn't dare. What could she say to him? Would she say that she took the file and blamed Jessica?Bettie didn't want to.She entered the room, opened the wardrobe, and rummaged inside, and after a while of searching, Bettie finally pulled out a file.Luckily, she didn't burn it or turn it away.Or should she take it to Alex's hospital now and secretly put it outside? That way, you won't even know who it is
Jessica's mood at this moment was like a fire being poured over by a bucket of cold water; she didn't understand what Alex was saying, but deep in her heart, she also understood what Alex's words meant.And Alex right now doesn't want to go around too much, he said:"The other day, you entered my room at my house, right?"Alex thought he only needed to say the first half of the sentence, and Jessica should have guessed the second half without him having to say it so clearly.And Jessica now, after listening to Alex's words, was like being struck by lightning, standing still for a few seconds before she could react:"I… I…” She tried to think of a practical reason to explain to Alex, but Jessica's mind was now like a tangle of strings just entwined together, extremely chaotic, and the more you lose your temper, the more confused you become. , there is no way to remove it. Her eyes darted around, and she began to think about how Alex knew this, and at the same time, a name popped into h
From the door, two men entered, holding a blue document bag.Henry is now frustrated; listening to them humming in his ear is even more uncomfortable; he presses his hand on the table, saying:"What is up!?"The other two people saw that Henry's face was not good, and they also guessed that he had an upset situation; they smiled flatly and stopped circling but went straight to the point:"I got this today, you see; it's a treasure."Treasure? Henry cursed in his heart; what is a treasure!? What can these two useless people bring to you? Henry glanced up, simultaneously seeing the file they held in their arms. He glanced over it, frowning."What is that?" Then he held out his hand, telling the two opposites to give it to him."Give it to me."And the other two can be sure in their hearts that if their boss sees this, he will definitely reward, promote, and even use them more than ever. Having also worked for Henry for almost five years, they understand that the rivalry between Henry and
The clues provided by Bettie were too few, not enough to lead Alex to any answers. This made him even more anxious and panicked than ever before."Do... do you remember the appearance of those two men? Can you describe them?" Alex asked Bettie.Alex was furious and disappointed with Bettie, but now was not the time to address that issue, although he would not let it slide.When asked by Alex, Bettie lowered her head trembling, trying to recall and recollect the faces and appearances of the two men. However, at that moment, it was as if an external force was impacting her mind, causing everything to become jumbled, and Bettie couldn't concentrate."They... one was about 1.8 meters tall, the other was about 1.6 meters tall, dark-skinned, and black hair..."Hearing Bettie's description like that, Alex truly felt like going crazy. He put his hand on his head, then turned to Jowley and said, "Utilize all my connections, request the police to investigate this case. Oh, and yes, go to that c
