Time Travel to Become Your Sweetheart novel Chapter 59

William often traveled to Europe and once heard this song in a survivor's home.

"Boss, I've heard this online. It's a bit depressing but far away from pushing people to suicide."

Frederic was surprised. As the president's special assistant, he knew little about that.

"The popular versions on the market are all distorted remnants."

Though years had passed, William clearly remembered the extremely oppressive and desperate tune.

As a calm and strong-minded man, he was still somewhat influenced by the tune.

He felt trapped by darkness. The strong sense of loneliness made him depressed.

"Is that song still available?"

The police officers didn't believe him.

"It was deleted."

Lolling in the chair, William felt tired. If it was just a simple tune, it wouldn't have taken hundreds of people's lives.

Only a few survived after listening to it.

"So you didn't call the police when you heard that?"

William shook his head slightly.

As the president of the Duncan Group, he often received different kinds of emails, threats, and extortion. Executives in famous enterprises also had similar experiences.

"Probably the day after receiving the song, I got a photo."

That might be the only weird thing.

"What kind of photo?"

The police began to take notes and they were curious about what threats he would face. They seldom dealt with the upper class.

"It is in an old community. There is a crowd of bystanders around the cordon."

William said, "A man is lying on the ground, with a big hole in his head and blood all over the place."

The man's eyes were closed and his face was ashen. There was blood in his mouth, ears, and nose.

A woman lying beside him seemed to be faint after crying. There was also a boy with a stubborn face.

William remembered that it was because of him when he strived to expand his business years ago.

The Duncans were always profit-driven. As the successor of the Duncan Group, he had to be cold-blooded.

Otherwise, he couldn't develop such a successful business.

He believed that money could buy everything.

That man, his competitor, was defeated by bankruptcy and takeover and jumped from the building to kill himself.

Admittedly, William used some means for the acquisition. But the man's failure resulted from his incompetence.

The weaker would be the loser. There were no philanthropists in the business world.

"Exactly."

Frederic nodded.

'There are only winners and losers in business. Everyone has to take the consequences. How can a person not play tricks to survive in this world?' He thought.

As William seemed strange recently, Frederic nearly forgot that his boss was a cold-blooded man.

"Yes. There is no kindness in business or the Duncan Group will be a large welfare house."

William looked at his watch. He had to go to the hospital if they could end the talk.

It was the police's duty to find the murderer, not his.

"Alright, please contact us if you notice anything unusual."

Going outside, William was not in a hurry to leave, he lit a cigarette.
