Chapter 671 The Whereabouts of Lainey
Miles knew which was more important, so he nodded repeatedly. “Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Serina.”
Just as Ainsley was about to leave, Miles suddenly stopped her. After pondering tor a while, he said, “Ms. Easton, I saw tlie news too. I know that Ms. Salter is a friend of yours and of Serina’s. T can help remove the trending research. Just don’t think I’m nosy.”
Ainsley looked at him gratefully. “Thank you. I’m very grateful that you can help us.”
“I don’t want to see Serina sad either.” Miles glanced at her solemnly.
Ainsley stopped talking and rushed to the hospital that Roman mentioned.
The man in the Emergency Room 7 was still in surgery, fighting to stay alive. She began praying with her hands together outside, to every deity she knew.
Soon, the light was gone.
She walked over worriedly, and it was the emergency doctor who came.
“Don’t worry. The patient is out of danger. The coma was caused by a sudden hurry. He needs to rest,” the doctor said.
Ainsley heaved a sigh of relief. “I understand. Thank you.”
In the VIP ward, Ainsley had been staring nervously at the phone screen. Too many things had happened recently, and she was already exhausted.
Soon, Jaydan woke up.
The first person he saw was Ainsley. He was a little surprised, but he also expected it. He panted and looked at Ainsley in pain as he struggled to
say, “Aisy, Lainey…”
Ainsley immediately held his hand. “Mr. Salter, don’t worry. I’ll find Lainey.”
“That video…”
“That video was taken by Irene and Daniel. We’ve done everything we can to help Lainey. I don’t think anyone will bring out the video again after Irene is imprisoned. So it could only be Daniel or… someone else.” Then Ainsley paused.
She was stunned when she mentioned “someone else.” Could it be “them”?
In order to warn her, those people hurt Serina and aroused in her the most painful memories, not to mention Lainey.
Jaydan’s eyes were red. He had lived tor so many years and cherished his only daughter, but he didn’t expect such a thing to happen.
He trembled and said, “Aisy, Lainey is your good friend. You must protect her and help her.”
I low could Ainsley refuse?
“Mr. Salter, don’t worry. Lainey is my best friend. I can’t leave her alone no matter what,” Ainsley said solemnly.
“It’s just that I haven’t even found her…” Jaydan was a little heartbroken. “If I had knowi she refused like this, I wouldn’t have stopped her.”
Lainey’s disappearance made Jaydan’s heart leap to the edge.
Faced with this situation, Ainsley could only comfort Jaydan, “Mr. Salter, don’t worry. Roman is still looking tor her. Only when you stay in good health can we go and look for her more easily.”
After talking for a while, Jaydan fell asleep in peace. He had been tortured by things for tlie past two days.
Ainsley walked out of the hospital coldly. Although she didn’t knowhow to find Lainey, she would never sit still and do nothing.
The Wade Group.
“What did you say? Samuel asked us to arrive at the company before six o’clock?” The middle-aged man holding a black chess piece looked impatient when he heard the news.
The man holding tlie white chess piece was slightly older, and he slowly put down a piece, “It should not be just us.”
The man threw the black chess piece back onto the chessboard and said angrily, “What right does he have to hold a board meeting? Does he really think of himself as a big shot?”
“Brice, have you forgotten that he now holds the most shares and has veto power for company affairs?” The slightly older man was not affected in the slightest and continued to play chess according to his own thoughts.
It would have been better if he didn’t say that. Instead, Brice Quinn became even angrier. 1 le raised his thick eyebrows and said, “Lucian, it’s not like you don’t know. His shares are simply a joke!”
Lucian Meredith ignored him and stared intently at a particular point on the chessboard. After pondering for a while, he put down his chess piece and shouted excitedly, “Checkmate, haha! Brice, I win!”
“Hey! Did you hear me, Lucian?” Brice asked anxiously. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
With a smile on his face, Lucian held the coffee cup beside him to take a sip before slowly continuing, “You and T both know what kind of person Samuel is. He does everything he can to achieve his goal.”
“The biggest taboo when dealing with such a person is to fight with him openly.”
Another director sighed with a sad face, “Are we going to be at his beck and call? I can’t take it even when I think about it, Lucian!”
Lucian smiled and shook his head. “What’s the hurry? Things are not that bad yet. Let’s wait and see. Isn’t he going to hold a board meeting? Let’s go and listen first. See what he has important to say.”
There was nothing Brice could do but be anxious, so now he could only nod.
It was almost six o’clock, and everyone who had been asked to be there had arrived in the conference room.
Brice took a sip of water with a gloomy face and put down his cup heavily. “What exactly does Samuel mean? Is he fooling us? We’re all here. Where is he?”
Apart from Lucian, who had his eyes closed, the rest of the directors also looked unhappy.
At that moment, the door of the conference room was pushed open from the outside. Before anyone arrived, the voice came first, “Sorry, everyone, I’m used to arriving just in time, so you must be waiting anxiously.”
Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed.
Seeing that Brice was about to go furious, Lucian suddenly patted him on the shoulder to calm him down.
There were two seats left in the conference room. One was for the chairman, and the other was for Samuel.
Without waiting for the others to attack, Samuel took the initiative and said, “I have something important to tell you today.”
He deliberately glanced provocatively at Brice, who had been holding back for a long time, and then at Lucian, who was the oldest. He deliberately pretended to be disappointed and said, “Everyone, you know that tlie value of our group’s stock only drops these days. It hasn’t fallen yet, but what about if it does one day? There will be no turning back al that point.”
Lucian looked up at him and said calmly, “Samuel, there’s no need for you to keep us in suspense. Why don’t do some straight talking?”
Samuel clapped his hands, and tlie smile on his face even wrinkled it. “As expected for you, Lucian. You hit the mark with a simple sentence, don’t you?”
Samuel had built up enough suspense. He leaned forward slightly, put his hands together on the table. With his chin on his hands, he said word by word, “A few days ago, I counted the shares in my hand.”
After everyone’s gaze fell on him, the smile on his face broadened. “I hold 30% of the shares of tlie group, so I should have enough say in this company.”
