Chapter 174 Why, Ethan Knight (6)
After watching the live stream, Charles quickly made a phone call, which the person soon answered. However, the person clearly sounded impatient. “What’s the matter this time?”.
The excitement in Charles’ voice was evident at this moment. “Did you watch the live stream just now? Alice just stole Galerprises’ tender document for Bruce’s sake, and the company’s gonna investigate her
and take her to court for this!”
There was a brief silence on the other end of the line; the person was probably checking the news. After a while, the person replied, “Is she out of her mind?”
“Alice is stupid in the first place, plus she’s head over heels in love with Bruce and would do anything for him. I already told you that she’s nothing to worry about,” Charles said in an apparently relaxed voice. He analyzed on his own, “I already told you that she had nothing to do with those things. She’s just an idiot. If I were Pierce, I wouldn’t tell her anything, so I don’t think she knows anything about him. Are we still gonna look into her now? Do we still need to get rid of her?”
There was another silence on the other end of the line. Then, the person replied with a chuckle, “Well, so much for the Morenos. In that case, we’ll let her off for now. As for Pierce, we’ll start elsewhere to investigate him.”
Charles replied, “Now that Alice got involved in Bruce’s theft of trade secrets, we can seize the opportunity to get our hands on the Woland Group right now.” This was his main purpose in making the phone call.
“Yeah, we can do that. The Woland Group has made a lot of money these years, so it’s okay to make it ours. And besides, we might be able to force Pierce to show himself by doing so. Once he dares to do that, I’ll make him disappear from this world forever.” The person on the other end did nothing to conceal their murderous intent.
“You’re right that we mustn’t let Pierce stay alive. Alice is an idiot, but Pierce isn’t. I’m worried that he’s still alive and has found out some secrets about what happened seven years ago.” Charles also had ruthlessness written all over his face with complete disregard for his past relationship with Pierce. Of course, there was another important reason why he wanted to get rid of Pierce-he wanted to take back the Glenn Group and get his hands on the Woland Group. If Pierce really were still alive, this probably wouldn’t go smoothly.
At this moment, the two of them thought of Alice as an absolute good-for-nothing. As they thought little of her, they didn’t watch out for her at all; they even withdrew the men they had initially sent to investigate her.
Since it was a live stream, Charles wasn’t the only person who watched this.
Ethan received news of the live stream, too.
“Mr. Knight, Archie Moreno said he’s gonna investigate Young Madam Knight. If she really has something to do with the matter, I’m afraid he’ll even take her to court,” Caleb reported in a low voice. He was really scared. He had reported this to Ethan a few days ago, at which time Ethan told him to let her be, which he actually did. But who would’ve thought that the matter would turn out like this? Alice actually went so far as to steal trade secrets. Caleb didn’t think the theft of trade secrets was the point here, as this was no big deal for Ethan. The point was Alice had done so for Bruce’s sake, which was…
Caleb gingerly looked up at his boss. When he saw Ethan purse his lips thoughtfully, his legs actually stopped trembling. Much to his surprise, Ethan didn’t seem very angry.
out like this. Smart as Little Fox is, there’s no way she couldn’t tell that Bruce Yeager was coaxing her, yet she actually helped him steal the tender document. Why? Why would she do this? Even if she really did that, with her cleverness, there was no way she would leave behind such an obvious flaw and wait for others to catch it. As I see it. the situation right now is full of holes. This isn’t supposed to be her way of doing things! So why on earth would things turn out like this? Just what exactly is her intention?
That being said, he just watched Archie say he was going to investigate her. Archie had said so directly in front of the reporters, so it was obvious that he wasn’t joking. Well, whatever her purpose and intention are, I can’t let others investigate my wife. However, he couldn’t ask her directly about this. If he were to do so, it would appear that he was suspecting her and questioning her. Therefore, he’d better help her out by getting to the root of it first.
