Chapter 945 If You Guys Refuse to Do Anything, Then I Will Take Action
Inside the Griffith Manor, Alexander waved his cell phone as he came into the living room from outside. At the same time, he reported the situation to Elise.
“I’ve just successfully contacted Old Master Heidelberg. Although we didn’t end up finalizing things, he’s evidently very interested in collaboration with Smith Co..” “If I’m not mistaken, Gale hasn’t given us his final decision so far, am I right?” Elise asked.
“That’s entirely understandable. After all, when the cat is away, the mice play. Old Master Heidelberg is now semi-retired, so his son Paul is the one calling the shots. That wastrel knows nothing but wine and dine, so Gale would surely be in an advantageous position,” Alexander’s deductions made perfect sense.
“Gale’s very closely related to the Heidelbergs as he’s their nephew. Does he actually intend to ruin the company?” “All this while, there have been plenty of instances where relatives of the wealthy have tried to take over position and wealth.”
Elise nodded in agreement with his words. “I’m not surprised then that he’s so interested in Narissa. Right now, he’s in charge of BJ Biotech, so he would immediately be able to dominate the Cubers once he manages to forge a connection with them.”
As Elise said that, her eyes sparkled suddenly. “Actually, this is good news for us. At least we don’t have anything to prove that Gale is involved with Wendy.”
“No matter what it is, we must get hold of BJ Biotech’s technology, so we must help the Heidelbergs identify the person causing trouble.” Alexander valued the drug research and development team of the Heidelberg Family.
“However, Gale is related to the Heidelbergs, so they would naturally trust him more than us outsiders. There is no way we would be able to convince the Heidelbergs, so how can we gain a breakthrough?”
Elise’s question was quite critical as the couple exchanged looks with each other. For a moment there, none of them came up with an answer. Suddenly, Jamie swaggered in with a helmet in his hand.
Elise and Alexander both turned to look at him and then shifted their eyes simultaneously to glance at each other. Subsequently, they nodded and smiled knowingly.
Jamie felt perplexed at the looks they shot him. “Why are you guys staring at me like that?” “It’s not important.” Elise acted dumb and asked him, “Why are you here?”
She successfully duped Jamie, and he lifted the helmet with both hands. “This helmet belongs to Narissa. Help me return it to her.”
“Why can’t you give it to her yourself?” Elise narrowed her eyes and stared at him; the expression on her face seemed to indicate that she could see through him.
“I don’t have the time.”
“What are you busy with?”
“It’s the collaboration with BJ Biotech, and… Anyway, I have a lot of things to deal with!” Jamie puffed his chest and attempted to bluff his way through.
“Alright then.” Elise’s expression changed instantly, and she heaved a solemn sigh. “It looks like Narissa’s future will be up to God then.”
“Hold on. What do you mean by up to God? I’m just asking you to return the helmet to her on my behalf. How has that got anything to do with her future? Boss, could you be more specific in your words?” Jamie panicked and paced back and forth.
“Well, that guy Gale is being such a two-faced guy. He delivered a false message. On the surface, he agreed to things but caused trouble behind our backs. Old Master Heidelberg was actually quite satisfied with Smith Co., yet Gale has been putting on airs and refused to see us. Do you think that a person like him can be counted on?” Elise spoke up.
“Of course not!” Jamie immediately took the bait and hollered agitatedly, “No way! You guys have to deal with this!”
“How are we supposed to deal with this?” Alexander spoke up casually by the side. “That’s her childhood buddy. If we approach her and comment about him, what does that make us? By then, not only would Narissa refuse to trust our words, she would even hold a grudge against us for that. We would be in such a disadvantageous position!”
“You can’t think about this situation that way!” Jamie rushed over to stand in front of Elise anxiously, “Boss, don’t tell me that you have the same opinion too?”
Elise turned to the side and intentionally refused to respond.
“Don’t forget that Narissa is your best friend. If you refuse to help her, then there won’t be anyone else who would help her. This is a matter of her future, so as her friends, there are some things that you have to bring up, regardless of whether she would end up hating you!” Jamie tried his best to convince her.
Nonetheless, Elise did not say anything but continued to sigh repeatedly with a downcast look. She practically had an expression that said she was helpless.
At that point, Jamie’s expression stiffened. “Do you really have no intention to do anything?”
In response, Elise shrugged. “I can’t do anything.”
