With You For the Rest of My Life novel Chapter 33

"I'm sorry, Miss Zhao. Mr. Gu wasn't in the company today."

In the reception room for the president of the Gu Group. Amanda was informed by Burke's secretary, Mike Lin, that Burke didn't come to work today.

Amanda had been out of touch with Burke for the whole day, so she was very angry and restrained herself from the anger. She knew that Mike Lin had been working for him for many years. He was an effective assistant to him. Offending him didn't do her any good. So she held back her anger, put on a smile and said, "Mike Lin, you must know where he is, right? Can you tell me? "

Mike Lin put on his professional smile and shook his head. He knew Burke's temper. He never liked others to know his schedule, so did Amanda.

"I'm sorry, Miss Zhao."

Since he had been with him for so many years, he can't be an easy one.

Knowing that she couldn't get any information from Mike Lin, Amanda decided not to humiliate herself anymore. She grabbed her bag on the sofa and left in a huff.

After the kidnapping last time, Burke was more and more alienated from her. He didn't answer her phone call from yesterday till now.

Amanda began to worry.

Did Burke find out something?

"It's all because of that Rocky. He cannot handle one simple thing..." She murmured.

That day, she had asked Rocky to hide in the corner of the warehouse. She wanted to take use of Burke's hand to get Rose in, and let Rocky kill her. Unexpectedly, Xavier showed up too.

Rose had been quite luck to escape from that.

After Rocky escaped, Amanda gave him a large sum of money to let him temporarily stay out of trouble, which also avoided the investigation of Burke and other people.

After that time, Amanda also cut her contact with Rocky temporarily, avoiding getting involved in a fire and investigating him.

She didn't know where Rocky was now.

Thinking of this, Amanda frowned and her face became very serious.

In the CEO Office of the Yuan Group, Austin stood in front of a huge French window and looked down at the heavy traffic on the road. His face couldn't be seen clearly.

"Is everything done?"

"Mr. Yuan, don't worry. It's absolutely okay."

A fat middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes said with a smug smile, sitting on the sofa.

"Be careful. Don't give yourself away." Austin reminded.

He didn't plan to work with the president in the first place. He was a meticulous man. Dealing with such an important matter with such a conceited man was not a good idea.

For decades, the Gu Group had a strong foundation, which was based on the loyalty and the united fight of several generations of people. After Burke took over Gu Group, he had made a series of changes within. The Gu Group was quite impregnable now. It could be hard to find someone to take the risk of cooperating with Yuan Group.

Austin had made many efforts and finally got to negotiate with the middle-aged man sitting on the sofa. Through negotiation, he obtained the first-hand information before the first trial of the Hetian Real Estate Project of Gu Group, the failure of which had hardly impacted Burke.

"What does Burke know? When I was with the elderly Mr. Gu, he did not know where he was. It cannot be so easy to find who was after all this. Just relax. Don't forget what you promised me before! "

The man said as he reached for the coffee on the table and took a sip of it gently. He closed his eyes as if enjoying it, half leaned on the sofa and hummed a tune.

At the thought the sullen expression on Burke's face when heard of the failure of Hetian Real Estate Project's first trial, Austin's mood was lit up.

He wanted to defeat Burke, destroy the Gu Group and revitalize the Yuan Group. And, he even intended to get Rose back from Burke.

Whatever it would cost.
