Chapter 1940
Susan quickly wore it on her neck, packed her backpack, and got ready to meet the young man, only to notice two students coming her way.
“Someone’s looking for you at the entrance, Susan.”
“Huh?”
Susan was taken aback.
Who’s looking for me? I don’t know anyone here aside from just a few people.
Upon walking to the school entrance with her backpack, she spotted a silver Land Rover parked outside as a young man in military uniform stood outside the vehicle waiting for her.
“It’s you, Vincent.”
“Yup.”
Vivian was as dashing as always, but his gaze darkened slightly as he noticed the exquisite necklace the Astorian woman was now wearing.
“I came over today because I need your help with something, Ms. Limmer.”
“Go ahead,” Susan responded at once, sighing with relief internally at the realization that he just wanted her help.
Yet, the man’s expression turned grim as soon as he spoke. There was also a hint of rage in his eyes.
“We’ve been dealing with a few cases of people having gone missing these days. According to police reports, this may have something to do with an ongoing international organ-trafficking case. That’s why I thought of asking the young Mr. Hayes for access to his information company.”
“What?”
There was so much to take in that Susan fell into a daze upon hearing Vincent’s words.
He wants to use… Ian’s information company?
The woman was extremely taken aback.
Still, her astonishment was immediately replaced by a feeling of pride once she returned to her senses.
My boy’s doing so well now, huh?
Later at noon, Ian brought Vincent to a new electronic information company that was newly established under Hayes Corporation and had the software engineers there help retrieve data on the trafficking group.
This company wouldn’t have been founded if it weren’t for Ian, and the fact that a local official had dropped by to seek the firm’s help within less than a year of its establishment showed how rapidly it was progressing.
“According to the leads you’ve provided, Lieutenant, we’ve only managed to come up with three individuals who meet the requirements. The first one’s a local fishery
tycoon, the second’s an oil magnate from Ackleton, and lastly, Hugo Tilan from Southeast Astoria.
“Hugo Tilan?”
The mere mention of this person’s name caused Vincent’s expression to cloud over.
Ian and Susan waited carefreely inside the office, not interfering much with what Vincent and the software engineers were doing.
How dare a criminal gang compare itself to Hayes Corporation? These guys obviously don’t know their place.
