chapter 1115


    They must not go on like this.


    s, he had to keep it together for Charmine''s sake and her illness... 2


    Before he could do anything, however, something crucial happened the next morning.


    The morning light shone into the bedroom and filled the space with warmth.


    Ring! Ring!


    The phone on the bedside rang urgently.


    Charmine felt around for the phone before she answered the call, greeted with Adam''s urgent voice,


    "Charmine, it''s bad. All thepanies under the Jordan Group were locked up. The construction sites


    are told to stop the work, and they just won''t give US an exnation when we ask about it.


    They only wanted US to call you."


    The initially drowsy Charmine sat up straight away, awakened by the news.


    She frowned. "The Association locked US down?" ''Yes. Our bodyguards dared not to resist, and they


    couldn''t...”


    Adam then warily asked, "Charmine, did something happen? Is someone against you?"


    Charmine already had a vague answer within a short while.


    "Don''t worry, it''s not a big deal," she assured him. "Ask Grandpa to rx-l can fix it."


    With that, she hung up.


    A few news articles then popped up on her phone; they were the links sent to her by herpany staff.


    When she clicked on one of them, she read as the business section stated the following: [Divine Bird


    Project Halted!] [Jordan Group Forced To Lock Down!] [Who Did The Jordan Group Offend?]


    N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    These articles were the most searched on the business news page, and many debated on the topic.


    [Everything went well so far, so why are they locked down? Didn''t the Association support this project


    fully?] [Did some major incidents ur? There''s no deadline to this lockdown, and it seems to be


    forever.] [Charmine knows so many moguls, yet nobody helped out? Maybe they can''t even intervene


    for her sake?] [Look, all the Jordan Group shares are falling!] [Argh! What to do? We bought the


    houses. Will they be a goner in time?]


    Reading them all gave Charmine a headache.


    The Divine Bird Project was forced to stop, and even all of the Group’s construction sites were locked


    down. The matter had taken a turn for the worse.


    Although they had sold out the Divine Bird houses, the other sites were ongoing and were actively tried


    to be sold out.


    If this went on, the Jordan Group would be in great loss.


    At that moment, Grandma Granger called. Her hoarse and guilty voice came through as she began,


    "Charmine, have you read the news? Have you heard? I''m sorry, but I have to do this for my grandson.


    I can guarantee you that as long as Guyes home, as long as you and yourpany stop taking


    his blood, I''ll make sure this gets sorted out right away." 1


    Charmine''s hands clenched tightly. As expected, it was Grandma Granger again! 1


    In order for Guy to not overhear, she stood up and walked to the study room. Closing the door, she


    then countered furiously, "Grandma Granger, you kidnapped Robertst night, and now you attacked


    mypany.


    Aren''t you taking things a little too far? Don''t forget that you started this by drugging me in the first


    ce! I also told you that I’ll ensure Guy''s safety!" "But Guy has a special blood type! How can you


    ensure his safety? If anything happens to him, what can you do?" fretted Grandma Granger in pain.


    She continued in a stern voice, "As I said, I have no choice; it''s all for my grandson. You can call me


    cruel or scheming if you want, but I only have one thing to say: If you don''t let go of Guy, the Jordan


    Group will be locked down forever! It’ll close down! I hope you think things through carefully,


    Charmine!" 1


    With that said, Grandma Granger hung up right away.
