“I’ll set off once I change my clothes.” Before Emma could reply, Charlotte had woken up from her slumber. The latter was already on her feet.
“You go ahead. We will follow right behind,” Charlotte instructed.
“Okay.” Immediately, Andy spun on his heel and left to carry out Charlotte’s orders.
“Ms. Lindberg, why don’t you sleep for a little longer?” Emma couldn’t bear to see Charlotte in such a state. “You are-”
“I’ll be fine,” Charlotte interjected as she changed her clothes. Once she got dressed, she made her way to the bathroom to freshen up.
Left with no choice, Emma followed along, hot on Charlotte’s heels.
It didn’t take long for them to set off after Bruce’s convoy in their own car.
Along the journey, Charlotte called Bruce to gain more clarification on the situation. It turned out that Bruce and his team managed to discover this lead through their own investigations. They’d also sent this information to Sean for further verification. At the same time, Bruce instructed his men to make haste toward H City as well.
Bruce’s plan is a solid one. If the lead ends up at a dead end, Sean can investigate further. Now that we have men on both sides, we can effectively cover more ground and prevent potential slip-ups. Besides, I needed to return to H City anyway.
Despite repeated urges from Emma to take a rest, Charlotte could not sleep a wink.
It’s already eight-thirty in the morning. If my assumptions are accurate, Chris and Nancy must have already registered their marriage at the Civil Affairs Bureau. The other directors must also be on their way back to H City to attend the board meeting this afternoon. I wonder how things are going on back with Spencer and Sterk…
Since Charlotte spent yesterday night occupied with finding Robbie, she’d overlooked this important matter. In haste, she called Sterk and inquired about the shares.
“Jesse already got his hands on eight percent of the shares. Also, Chris, that b*stard, transferred twenty percent of his shares to Jesse too. Right now, Jesse is in possession of twenty-eight of the company’s shares. He’s Nacht Group’s majority shareholder…” Sterk uttered, his voice choked with tears. “They will announce this new share ownership in the upcoming meeting this afternoon. Charlotte, we’re going to lose.”
