“Look into this! Check every surveince camera on the road carefully and don’t miss any of them.”
“Got it, Mr. Fairchild,” the tall and thin man who stood behind Xavier all this time answered. The man’s
name was Louis Tanser. He was Xavier’s assistant and a capable person in his work. Stuart had
transferred him to a remote branch of thepany during the time Xavier was in a “vegetative state,”
but now that Xavier had regained control of thepany, he had also been transferred back. “Also,
Walter is the driver who has been with me the longest and has been loyal to me over the years.
Transfer ten million over to his family. I heard that he has a daughter who is in school. I’ll fund her
education from now on.” “Okay. I’ll make the arrangementster.” Winnie groaned as she stretched her
body and opened her eyes. In the earlier car ident, both she and Xavier merely sustained minor
abrasions and were fine. However, the driver in the front seat was seriously injured. She identally
fell asleep while waiting for surgery to end, and now, she had no idea how much time had passed and
whether the person was saved. However, judging from Xavier’s expression, it seemed that it was an
unfavorable oue. “How’s the driver, Handsome? Is he all right? Can he drive us home now?”
Winnie asked innocently. Xavier replied with a gloomy expression, “We’ll take another car back. He’s
gone.” As he spoke, a body covered with a white cloth was pushed out. Winnie was aware of what he
meant, but she still put on a goofy grin and grabbed his hand. “Oh! Then let’s go too!” Xavier let her
slender hand pull him away. Neither of them noticed that at the corner of the corridor, a suspicious
person was taking photos in secret. Soon, a news article headline wrote: The famousatose son of
the Fairchild family in Avenport has woken up! Another wrote: Scandal! The Fairchild family even gave
their previouslyatose son a wife to celebrate the joyous asion! Feudal dregs! Another headline
wrote: Shocking news! The new bride of the Fairchild family is mentally challenged! An article’s
headline wrote: The Fairchild family is ungrateful. After theatose son woke up, he tried to abandon
his mentally challenged bride! Within a few hours, the news exploded on the inte. By the time
Xavier found out and blocked the newspletely, it had already spread across the country. Rufus’
phone call also came at the first opportunity. “Xavier, have you read the news on the Inte? What’s
going on?” Xavier pinched between his furrowed brows. “Yes. They were brought down in the shortest
possible time. I’m trying to find out who is behind it.” “You just took back control of thepany, and
such negative news came out. It seems that someone can’t stand to see you doing well and wants to
defame you. Look into the matter! No matter who is behind it, we’ll never let them off easily.” “I know
that, Granddad. Don’t worry about this. Just walk your dog and have coffee at ease.” In order not to
worry the old man, Xavier made no mention of the car ident the night before. However, he clearly
knew that these two things that happened in a row were aimed at him, and the clues of the culprit all
pointed to the same people—Stuart and Zyon. “By the way, Xavier, there is one more thing.” Rufus
said, “For the stability of our Fairchild family, I’m afraid you can’t divorce Winnie for the time being. If
you dump her at this time, our family’s reputation will be damaged. Your dad has been seizing power
abroad all these years, and we can’t drag him down here, so you’ll have to endure this, Xavier.” Xavier
frowned slightly as the image he saw when he woke up that morning of Winnie curled up in his arms
and sleeping soundly came into his mind. If I can’t divorce Dumbo, then I’ll let her stay with me and
take good care of her like a sister. Meanwhile, in the yroom of Lagune Mansion, Winnie could not
help but smile upon seeing the overwhelming discussions among theizens. She originally wanted to
spend some effort toe up with a trick to remain in the Fairchild family but never expected that
someone would pave the way for her. One of the news headlines wrote: The Fairchild family is
ungrateful. After theatose son woke up, he tried to abandon his mentally challenged bride! With
such news exploding, even if it were for the sake of Fairchild Corporation’s stock prices, Xavier
probably wouldn’t divorce me anytime soon. Besides, it’ll be Old Mr. Fairchild’s birthday in a few
months, when the younger generation of the Fairchild family scattered all over the country wille to
congratte him. That’ll be the best time for me to find clues about my cousin. Winnie was in a good
mood, and even the tone of her voice was merry. Nathaniel, who was on the other end of the phone,
evidently sensed it as well. “Well, Gator. You seem to be in a good mood today. Is it because I’m
coming to you soon?” “Back off! Stop flirting with me, yboy. Let’s get down to business.” “Oh, my
dear Ms. Gator. You are still so heartless. Let’s talk about Gand Group then. The business hasn’t
been doing well in recent years, so the president of thepany, Hamish, has set his sights on
investment. Since he’s new to it, we’ll tailor-make a n for him. Once he falls into the trap, he won’t be
able to get out, and when the timees, you can reap the harvest.” “That’s right. Creating trouble and
laying traps are your specialties. I trust your ability.” “Thank you for your trust, my dear Gator, but still,
Chanaea is not my home ground. Remember I mentioned to you before that I have a good alumnus in
Avenport? I n to coborate with him this time.” “No problem. If there is anything I need to cooperate
with, just say it.” “Heavens! You know me too well. We are truly a perfect match.” “Save it!” “Okay. The
thing is, I’ve been busy with Rodunst’s n A recently, so I can’t go over to you at the moment, but my
alumnus is a difficult person, so I need you to negotiate with him in person. Can you do that?” “Sure.
Send me the time, location, and his information.” Although Asiatic was a little-known smallpany,
Winnie had a deep impression of it and the big yer behind it. Normally, investmentpanies
wanted to make money, but the person behind thispany seemed to treat it as a “game” and
challenge. All the cases he handled were the kind that involved counterattacks and turning the tides.
There were several cases worth tens of billions that came to him, but he refused all of them with the
excuse that they were too smooth sailing and boring! The person was very arrogant but also extremely
capable. There was a time when Winnie badly wanted topete with him, but she could not track him
down. All because he’s too mysterious! It’s impossible to find out anything about him! The details
Nathaniel provided her also had little useful information, not even the person’s real name and photo.
Hence, she was very much looking forward to their meeting! Back in the CEO’s office of Fairchild
Corporation, Xavier received a message that wrote: My dear alumni, it’s a shame that I can’te to
meet you this time, but my partner “Gator” will go there in my ce. I hope you’ll be interested in this
case. At present, it was the busiest time for him, so Xavier did not intend to ept any invitation other
than those arranged by thepany. However, Nathaniel mentioned “Gator,” a god-like figure in the
Adrune investmentmunity, and that had sessfully caught his attention!
