Chapter 259


    “Alright, if there’s nothing much, hurry on back to thepany. I’ll give that president’s assistant a


    call,” said Jeremy.


    “Yeah, call me if anything happens,” said X as she got up.


    Jeremy nodded, and X left the room. Based on the current situation, it seemed like the Dragon


    Group was really nning to do charity by helping them. The possibility of this being true and not a


    scam was high.


    At this thought, she suddenly felt like she was on cloud nine. Hopefully, this could all proceed as


    desired. But even if it didn’t, she wasn’t afraid, because she had the money they needed.


    From the money she earned from X Entertainment, she had saved part of it and even invested


    some. Due to her good sense, her investments had been returned by a hundred folds. Since X


    Entertainment’s establishment until now, her umted wealth was just around eight billion.

    Back at the Quest Group, X shut everything out as she immersed herself in work. This continued


    on until six in the evening. Looking up, she realized that the skies outside had gradually darkened


    as the city lit up in bright, coloured lights.


    Pushing her swivel chair back, shezily leaned against the backrest as she massaged her nose


    bridge, trying to rx. Taking out her phone, she saw that Georgie had called her three times. As


    her phone was on silent mode, she hadn’t heard it ring at all. Hence, she simply called Georgie


    back.

    Very soon, Georgie’s voice flowed from the other end, “What’s wrong? I called so many times but


    you weren’t answering. If you kept ignoring me, I would have called the police.” Her voice sounded


    rxed, and there were hints of joy in it.


    “I was busy with work…” replied X.


    “Yeah. It’s nothing much, but I wanted to tell you that Mary Sullivan might be detained for a month


    because of this incident,” said Georgie, chuckling.


    “Very nice.” Xughed as well, feeling great.


    “That idiot got her just deserts. And the leader of that Josh Batton’s Wives group, Coffee Bean,


    called me earlier to apologize again. That girl was scared out of her wits, afraid that I was going to


    send her to jail. It’s the same for Mary’s hacker friend, Paris Piglet.”


    “What did you tell them?” X asked.


    “What else can I say? I just asked if we’ve ever promised them anything. Say, you don’t know how I


    got them topromise so quickly back then, do you? I’ll tell you, I…”


    “Even if you didn’t tell me, I can guess. You must have threatened and bribed them. First, youid


    out the evidence to scare them, and then you offered money to tempt them,” said X with augh.


    Georgie chuckled again. “Yeah, that’s right. That’s how I did it.”


    “How much did you spend? I’ll write it off for you.”


    “No need. It’s just a mere hundred thousand. I’m paying it.” Georgie’s tone sounded joyful.


    The smile on X’s lips deepened. “I’ll transfer you the moneyter. I’m happy with just your


    regards.”


    “No. Why are you being so courteous with me?”


    “It’s money that you shouldn’t be forking out, so you don’t have to pay even a single cent. We’re


    besties, so let’s keep things clean between us,” X added.


    As the girls talked, Josh called.
