I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 845

Chapter 845: I Suggest You Stay in Manches City

When they arrived at the small apartment, Allan had already brought Reed back.

Allan might still be a bit hungover. As Yanis and Zane got out of the car, Allan was sitting on the steps outside the apartment building.

Mitch stood by, his expression not looking good.

Yanis glanced at both of them and asked, "Where is Reed?"

Mitch replied, "Upstairs."

"Then I'll go up and check on her."

Mitch nodded, "Okay."

Yanis entered the apartment building without hesitation.

As Zane watched Yanis go in, he looked at Allan sitting on the steps and asked, "What about those people?"

When Allan heard Zane's question, he glanced up at Zane and said, "I sent them away."

Just as Allan finished speaking, Mitch suddenly stepped forward and kicked Allan off the steps. "Who gave you the right to make decisions for us? Who gave you the right to let them leave just like that? Do you have any idea what could have happened to Reed if it had been later?"

Caught off guard, Allan fell to the ground but took a while to get back up. "Mitch, they are all people who used to be on good terms with your dad. They won't really harm Reed; they just wanted money..."

"They wanted money? If they wanted money, couldn't they have come to me openly? Why did they have to resort to such methods?"

Listening to their conversation, Zane intervened just as Mitch was about to act and looked at Allan. "What did they do to Reed?"

Allan shook his head. "Nothing..."

"Bullshit!" Mitch interrupted Allan angrily before he could finish speaking. "Did Reed tear her clothes and injure herself?"

Allan pursed his lips. "Mitch, the injuries on Reed... last night, she..."

"Allan!" Mitch shouted Allan's full name. "Whose side are you on? You say you like Reed, but is this how you show it? When she's in trouble, you don't stand by her side; instead, you stand with the people who hurt her? Is that your definition of love?"

Mitch's words left Allan speechless.

Zane looked at Allan and asked, "What's your reasoning?"

Allan stood up, brushing off the dust from his clothes. "Those people only wanted money; they wouldn't really harm Reed."

Zane frowned. "Mitch said Reed has injuries. How did she get them?"

"Last night, Reed got scared by them and accidentally fell while struggling," Allan explained.

Mitch's face darkened upon hearing Allan's words.

Just as Mitch was about to say something else, Zane stopped him. "So you didn't report it to the police or ask Reed and Mitch's opinion, and you just let them go?"

Allan responded with an agreement, "Those people used to work for your dad... for Nealon. They had a good relationship with Sameer too. Sameer secretly transported goods a few times, and they helped cover it up. If we had really reported it to the police this time, they would definitely come back for Reed. Our days wouldn't be peaceful anymore."

After Allan's words, Mitch looked at Allan. "What did you mean by smuggling? My dad said he never touched the things you mentioned!"

Allan sat back down on the steps, "That's because he didn't want you to worry. Do you think Nealon would generously give your dad hundreds of thousands every month?"

"Hundreds of thousands?" Mitch was shocked. "That's impossible. He only gives my mom a few thousand a month, sometimes even less than a thousand."

Allan chuckled, "If he gaveyour family hundreds of thousands every month, wouldn't you be suspicious?"
