Spoiled by the President novel Chapter 824

Vickie could not take a shower by herself since she was still injured, so she wrung out a towel and simply wiped herself down.

Once she was out, she put on some clean clothes and looked at the time. It was already 6:00 am.

Summer mornings dawned early, and although it was only 6:00 am, the sky was already marbled white.

Since Vickie could not sleep anymore, she simply made herself a cup of tea and took her wheelchair out to the terrace to watch the sunrise.

Unexpectedly, it was not yet sunrise when she heard the sound of a car engine from downstairs.

Stunned, she stretched her neck to look.

A black SUV drove out of the garage and headed towards the chateau’s front door.

Vickie could not help but frown.

She had lived in the chateau for a long time, so she naturally recognized that it was Gregory Graham’s car.

Usually, no matter where he went, that was the car he loved to drive the most.

However, where was he going so early in the morning?

A whiff of doubt arose in her heart, but it was clearly inconvenient for her to follow after him, so she could only stay put.

At the same time, on the other side.

In the car.

Gregory was looking down at the information on the computer in his hand, reading the data on some people.

The person driving was Harold, who reported to Gregory as he drove. “Boss, these people have all been checked out. They were all once core figures of the Vermillion Bird Organization. After the incident with the organization, these people went missing collectively.

“The people outside thought that we had them taken out secretly, but the truth is that we’ve been searching for them for years as well.

“But in the past few years, it was as if these people had just disappeared. No matter how much I investigated, I couldn’t find the slightest trace of them.

“It wasn’t until recently that they suddenly appeared and made a lot of large-scale movements again.

“According to my investigation, the people who wanted to kidnap Miss Thomas before are not only related to the Chinese Association, but also to this group of people.”

As he said this, Gregory suddenly froze.

Then, he frowned. “They’re not from the Chinese Association?”

Harold shook his head.

“Although they all apparently joined the Chinese Association after the incident at the Vermillion Bird Organization, that’s not actually the case. According to my guess, they should have little to do with the Chinese Association and aren’t really committed to it.”

Gregory put down the information, and his expression grew serious.

“What do you mean?”

“I’ve checked that the people who kidnapped Miss Thomas were indeed instructed by the boss of the Chinese Association, but they had also met these people from the Vermillion Bird Organization alone the night before the operation.”

Gregory frowned.

Harold continued, “Although these people have joined the Chinese Association, they’re not in the core department and their status in the organization is not as high either, so why did they go see him alone? That’s very suspicious.”

Gregory also noticed this point after Harold pointed it out.

He was silent for a moment before he said coldly, “Continue investigating. Let me know as soon as possible if there’s any news.”

Harold said solemnly, “Understood.”

The car drove all the way to the city.

At the same time, Vickie had finished her breakfast while being accompanied by Andrea.

She had been recuperating at home recently and was truly bored to death.

Coupled with yesterday’s incidents, Yuliana strutted around the chateau on her high horse, turning her nose up at anyone she saw along the corridors. It was infuriating for anyone to see.

In the end, she managed to escape and came back alive. She thought after making such a big move, these people would never give up on coming after her.

Unexpectedly, she had been recuperating at the chateau for nearly a month, but the other party still had not made any moves.

If they did not take action, then she would not be able to leave this place either. After all, with her current abilities, even if she left this place, she might fall into their hands in minutes.

However, as the saying went, a person’s energy was limited. If a person was constantly on guard and preparing for something, there would be a point where their vigilance grew sloppy.

Therefore, things could not go on like this.

In addition to what happened last night, Gregory’s obvious display of distrust towards her had deeply pierced her heart.

The memories that had been forgotten four years ago once again surfaced into her mind.

She did not want to experience what she had gone through again, so she wanted to leave early. She had to get out of this place as soon as possible and leave his sight.

Only then would the two of them be able to truly distance themselves from each other, and she would be able to calm her heart down and put this ill-fated relationship behind her once and for all.

With this thought, Vickie took a deep breath.

Since the other party had not shown up and waiting idly was not an option either, she could only counteract and take the initiative instead.

Did they not want to catch her? Since those people refused to come out while she was hiding in the chateau, she would be the generous one by going out instead.

However, if she just went out as usual, they might get suspicious and refuse to take the bait. If that happened, her painstaking efforts would be wasted.

Hence, the time she went out was important, but who she went out with was even more important.

Vickie’s original plan was to pretend make-up with Gregory and go out to the lantern festival together with him.

Besides, those who did not know them would not be aware of their previous relationship.

Now that Vickie had stayed in the chateau for so long, it would make sense if she said that they had rekindled their past romance.
