Chapter 739 A Mysterious Man
Josie returned to her seat beside Arnold and asked softly, “Have you finished negotiating?”
He frowned. “Why is your face so pale? You look as if you have seen a ghost.”
“It’s scarier than a ghost.” Josie continued to urge him, “Can we leave??
Arnold sensed something was wrong with her. “Didn’t you want to investigate Paul? We haven’t asked anything.”
Josie glanced at the people in the room, noting their fierce expressions. “I can see you are all scared of Wayne. You probably won’t reveal anything even if I ask.”
Arnold leaned toward Mr. Vipera and said, “See, my lover is obsessed about finding her father. She has been with me for many years, so I must at least help her. Can you give us some information about her missing father?”
“What happened back then?”
Mr. Vipera regarded Josie. He was present yesterday and knew what she wanted to know.
“Arnold, I’ve warned you not to be too involved with a woman.”
Arnold nodded. “I’ll only be asking for your help this time.”
Mr. Vipera fell silent and considered the matter. Then, he looked at Josie and said, “I can’t reveal much. All I can say it the past matter has been resolved, and Wayne has no reason to abduct him. At least I didn’t receive any information about his abduction.”
Josie was surprised by his answer. In other words, Paul’s disappearance had nothing to do with Wayne.
She wanted to ask another question, but Arnold stopped her. “Thank you, Mr. Vipera.”
They stayed there for another half an hour for Arnold to finalize the business deal. Then, he held Josie’s hand and headed outside, only to bump into Robert at the door. He looked a lot older under the dim light.
“Miss,” he said, “have you never considered that you’re the reason why your father is missing.”
Josie freed her hand from Arnold. “What do you mean? Please explain.
“It’s nothing much. It looks like you still haven’t discovered your past. That’s why you’re rushing around. like a headless chicken.”
