Chapter 546
“He is really an experienced businessman. He is so cunning and well-hidden.
“It would be too easy to destroy him by force.
“However, using wits to defeat the old fox will bring me a true sense of accomplishment.”
Haylan finished his coffee, stubbed out his cigarette, sat on the sofa, closed his eyes, and began brainstorming.
Haylan imagined himself as Albert and stood in Albert’s position to think about what Albert would do and why he chose Reign as CEO in the beginning and left himself.
Before handing over power to Reign, what kind of backup plan would Albert leave behind? Only then would Albert be able to leave without worrying about Reign seizing power. Even when facing Reign seizing power, Albert would still be so calm.
After thinking for a long time, Haylan suddenly opened his eyes. There was a deep shock in his eyes as he muttered. “No, it
can’t be?”
The best way to manipulate Reign was to threaten her with the people she valued the most.
Therefore, if Albert wanted to take back the shares from Reign, the best way was to threaten Reign with her father or her younger brother.
Reign’s younger brother was already in a vegetative state and had been receiving treatment at Massach General Hospital. Even if Albert could threaten Reign with her younger brother, it was probably not Albert’s last resort.
Therefore, Haylan concluded that Albert definitely had information about Reign’s father.
It was even more likely that Reign’s father might have been locked up by Albert for some reason for many years.
At the thought of this, Haylan was shocked and in disbelief.
A father imprisoning his own son and giving the authority of the family to his granddaughter?
No matter how Haylan thought about it, he felt it was impossible.
However, if this was the truth, it meant that Albert was a real and terrifying devil on earth.
Haylan stood up and touched his nose. He thought to himself. “Am I thinking too much? No parents will harm their child, right? Albert even wants to protect Philip. He won’t do anything to his son, right?”
This thought was too ridiculous. Even Haylan suspected that he was thinking too much.
However, ever since this thought appeared, it had been lingering in Haylan’s mind.
The more Haylan thought about it, the more he felt that Reign’s father’s disappearance was very strange.
Haylan took out his phone and called Landon. Haylan said in a deep voice, “Mr. Katz, come to my office for a while. I have something important to discuss with you.”
About thirty minutes later, Landon came to Haylan’s office. Landon looked at Haylan in confusion. “What’s so urgent?”
“I want to know the details of Ms. Labenz’s father’s disappearance, Haylan said.
“Why are you suddenly interested in this?” Landon looked puzzled.
“Since I asked, it’s naturally useful. Hurry up and tell me,” Haylan said in a deep voice.
To be honest, Haylan felt that he was making wild guesses and was very unwilling to believe this outcome.
Because if it was really as Haylan imagined, Reign had always been living under the control of her evil grandfather, Albert. Reign looked glorious, rich, and powerful, but in fact, she had always been a pawn of Albert
Such a background was too pitiful.
Nostalgia appeared in Landon’s eyes as he said, “Rei’s father’s name is Preston Labenz. He’s a martial arts genius and a business genius. His ability is outstanding. At a young age, he followed Mr. Albert to explore the business world. He could be considered famous at that time.
“Later, he met Rei’s mother. The two of them went through a sweet love story and finally got together.
“The second year after their marriage, they gave birth to Rei. In the third year, they gave birth to Rei’s younger brother, Lawrence.
“Their family of four was really blissful.
“But good times didn’t last.”
At this point, Landon paused for a moment. A hint of sadness appeared in his eyes as he said, “After that, Rei’s mom contracted a very strange illness. She was seriously ill and could not be treated. We invited all the famous doctors at home and all the famous doctors in the world, but none of them could treat her.
