Chapter 642 Grace Yannin
The moment she saw that gold-embossed business card from the Garner Group's Orion, she instantly understood what her father meant.
It's no wonder that Dad had this idea. After the divorce from Cason, the Packer Group lost its support.
After all, it's a halfway enterprise, and it's only with the continuous support of the Baldry family that it has truly managed to gain a foothold in Seattle.
Now that the Baldry family's support was gone, he could only seek a new goal, and the best way to do that was to use her.
She laughed at herself mockingly, but she also understood that this was the only way when there was no other way.
Yet, deep in her heart, a strong sense of doubt arose. What if Orion also cared about those scandals surrounding her, even though they were all true?
Tossing the gold-embossed business card aside, she lay down on the bed, exhausted. To regain leverage against Ainsley, she knew she must find a new ally.
So, in a couple of days, she and her mother went to the mall together to buy haute couture.
Ainsley was busy in the office when she received a call from Roman.
"Found it."
In just four short words, Ainsley lost her grip on her phone, and it fell to the ground. She quickly realized what had happened and hurriedly picked it up.
Her voice trembled as she asked, "Where are you?’
Roman gave the address, and Ainsley and Matteo immediately drove there. The place where Roman was located was his office. As soon as he arrived, he saw Manuel's car, which indicated that Manuel had arrived early.
As soon as Ainsley entered Roman's office, they discovered that it was incredibly messy. Papers scattered all over the floor were covered in phone numbers and crossed-out marks.
She understood that this was the number Roman had been investigating in the call records. On the whiteboard beside her, she saw the last number marked with a large question mark.
Upon entering the partitioned area behind the whiteboard, Ainsley and Matteo saw Manuel and Roman.
After not seeing him for a few days, Roman's face was covered in stubble, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked utterly exhausted.
Before she could ask how have they been, Ainsley greeted the two of them.
Roman excitedly said, "This is a great project! You guys have no idea how complicated this is! I've investigated all the numbers, and although some of them were empty, I didn't give up. I used encryption technology to look at these phone numbers, and finally found one that was very strange."
He pulled out a phone number. ’This is it! This number has double encryption, so even if it's decrypted, it's still a dead end. But I chose to investigate from a different angle. I specifically looked into the numbers that have been in contact with this one, and I have Mr. Gage to thank for that."
Thanks to Manuel? What did he do?
It seemed that Roman noticed Ainsley's confusion, so he explained, "Mr. Gage owns an entertainment company. He casually picked an artist and found this phone number's record in their phone. There are very few people who keep call records from years ago, but we still managed to find it.
I found this woman's name in someone's caller remark; her name is Grace Yannin."
Ainsley squinted slightly, she had heard this name before, and everyone in the entertainment industry had heard it. In his twenties, she quickly gained a foothold in the domestic scene with just a few works, winning numerous awards and becoming a grand slam star.
The reason she had heard of her was because she loved watching TV during her adolescent years, and the actress who made her marvel at her beauty was none other than this Grace.
Roman pulled out Grace's photo, "Have you seen her before? With your father?"
