371 Anna Is Missing

"Look at me, Ryan. Do you think I'm joking with you right now?"

Ryan shook his head right away, saying, "No! I'm not interested in business, you know. Besides, I'll be in America in two months. I can't run the business."

"You must do it! This is our family business, so you should run it along with me. However, because you didn't grow up here as a child, no one told you about it before."

"But I'm not interested in any of this! You cannot force me to do so."

"Listen, Ryan, I'm just going to let you run the company for a while. Don't worry, it'll only be for a few months."

Hearing that, Ryan nodded his head. He remembered that Henry and Peter discussed the stock market some time ago, and he knew the group had been struggling recently.

"Has work been particularly difficult lately?" he asked.

"I didn't leave the company in your hands because things have been tough lately."

Ryan frowned. He wanted to explain but didn't know what to say. He paused briefly before saying, "Oh, I didn't mean that. But are you sure | can handle it?"

He knew the group had a lot of management talent and that any of it Was more reliable than him, a complete amateur. But Wayne let him do it because he trusted him and, most likely, because of Jasper.

Jasper's vicious attack on the Carousel Group came entirely against '370 Anna Is Missing Wayne. So, if the group's CEO was changed, he would be less hostile. Jasper couldn't do anything else because Ryan was Anna's friend.

At the thought of that, Ryan looked at Wayne suspiciously as if he wanted Wayne to confirm his suspicions.

Wayne then said, "This will at least buy me some time."

Ryan knew he was right. He looked down, thought for a moment, and said, "Okay, I'll do it for you.'

He decided to give it a shot because Wayne had dragged him here. He did so to make up to Wayne and apologize to him.

After dinner, Wayne took his coat and left. Jennie followed him and asked, "Where are you going?"

Wayne cast a glance at Jennie. When he realized Anna had helped him find his mother and brother, he felt conflicted.

"I'm returning to the office to take care of some business."

"It's late, and you're returning to work? You haven't gotten enough rest lately:

Jennie insisted on dropping him off at the gate, and she didn't walk back until his car left the yard.

Wayne might be going to France for a long time, so he wanted to see her daughter before he left. After he reached the hospital, many nurses on duty at the hospital recognized Wayne and greeted him.

"Mr. Wright, Tammy has been sleeping and she hasn't woken up yet," one nurse said.

Aiter a brief moment of hesitation, Wayne asked, "Is there someone with her?"

"There's a nurse with her. But no one came here to see her this whole afternoon. She is doing well now and is being treated in a general ward. | 370 Anna Is Missing called Miss Gabriel, but she didn't answer the calls. She's probably busy."
