Chapter 621
Ethan was very busy during the short period of break.
Since Brent and Kelvin weren’t around, Ethan had to handle a lot of things himself.
Cyril was transferred over at a last-minute notice.
Thinking about the shareholder voting that was going to commence half an hour later, Cyril wasn’t afraid of it.
He felt sorry for Ethan instead.
“Mr. Miller, you’ve poured so much effort into the company, and that’s why it could achieve such achievements. How could they repay your favor by trying to dismiss you from your position?”
Ethan lit a cigarette. “This might not be a bad thing. I’ve long noticed someone plotting something behind the scenes. I can use the opportunity to lure the rat out.”
“Are you trying to clear the decks, Mr. Miller?”
“It’ll happen sooner or later.” Ethan exhaled a cloud of smoke. “I’ll make him know what’s the consequence of coveting something that doesn’t belong to him.”
Cyril took his phone out and glanced at it. “As you’ve expected, Kayla met a man after you left.”
“Who was it?”
Cyril zoomed in on the photo, which showed a gentleman in a white suit. He was sipping on a cup of coffee.
His side profile alone was enough to display his gentle side.
Ethan sneered. “It is him. He has frequently interacted with the senior management these years. It takes a long time for hard work to pay off. Judging from how many people stood up today, it looks like he has spent a lot of effort on this.”
“You can seize this chance to root all of them out, Mr. Miller. Oh, right, the person who splashed the acid will be released tonight.”
“Lock him in. Let him be first. I have a use for him. Where’s Diego?”
“He disembarked the plane not long ago. I bet he knows the news.”
“Have you found out who’s the person manipulating public opinion from abroad?”
Cyril shook his head. “Their IP address is fake. It changes every few seconds. It’s a professional who’s manipulating things behind the scenes. I bet it’s his doing.”
“No. There’s another person beside him,” Ethan responded confidently.
“His target is me and Miller Group. It’s the same person who ordered someone to splash acid and kill us. Liv is his target. This person must be the mastermind who hired the Black Ravens for that a*sa*sination job.”
A lot of matters and people were involved in this. It was a jumble of mess because the leads were gathered in one picture.
Among them were baits, who were being used to mislead Ethan. It wasn’t easy to analyze and investigate the details.
“If that’s the case, Mrs. Miller might be in danger at any time.”
“My announcement of Liv’s identity wasn’t only to grant her wish but also to lure that mastermind out. He’ll only take action when Liv shows up. The more he exposes himself, the easier it is for us to catch him.
“From what I see now, he’s a capable person. He didn’t leave a trace at all! We can ascertain that he’s not in Aldenvine. He’s somewhere abroad.”
“Yeah. That a*sa*sin killed himself in the police station not long ago. I don’t know what happened to that person who splashed acid, though.”
“Since his plan has failed, that mastermind will come at us again. Is the arrangement at Liv’s side done?”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Miller. I’ve increased the number of men.”
Ethan’s a*sistant knocked on the door. “Mr. Miller, all of the shareholders are here. They’re waiting for you in the meeting
room.”
“Let’s go.” Ethan stood up and headed to the meeting room.
When he opened the door, he noticed that someone else had taken his seat.
That person resembled Ethan, but he seemed gentle. His features weren’t that sharp.
That person raised his gaze to meet Ethan’s as he smiled provokingly. “Long time no see, Ethan.”
It seems Ethan only ever married Olivia to take revenge for what happened to his little sister. While Olivia is plagued by her sickness, he holds her chin and says coldly, “This is what your family owes me.” Now, she has no family and no future.
Her father becomes comatose after a car accident, leaving her with nothing to live for. Thus, she hurls herself from a building. “The life my family owes will now be repaid.” At this, Ethan, who’s usually calm, panics while begging for Olivia to come back as if he’s in a state of frenzy …
