Chapter 805: Fleeing


    Chapter 805: Fleeing


    Enterprises like Simpson Group, which have made countless contributions to Hance City, naturally


    receive unconditional protection.


    Especially when ites to the issue Ayan mentioned, it already involves trade secrets. The


    consequences and costs are something Sandra can''t imagine.


    If she''s reallybeled with this crime, she can forget about turning her life around.


    Sandra''s face turned pale, overwhelmed by tension and stiffness. She dared not look back at Ayan,


    afraid that he would notice the changes in her facial expression.


    Her hand, resting on the doorknob, clenched tightly. Even her breathing seemed to subside as she


    spoke softly, "Mr. Simpson, you''re using me unfairly. Although I haven''t made any significant


    contributions at Simpson Group, you can ask Kian and John, I''ve always worked diligently and without


    any mistakes. I don''t think I''ve done anything wrong, so you can''t treat me like this!"


    "The decision is in your hands, so you can choose for yourself."

    Ayan nced at the time on his phone. It had been an hour since hest contacted the kidnapper.


    There was still no news from Kian, which filled him with unease.


    With his patience towards Sandra wearing thin, he coldly said to her, "If you don''t want to tell the truth,


    then leave right now. I don''t want to waste any more time on you. But you should think carefully about


    whether you want me to find a way to protect you quickly or contact the police to incriminate you."


    Sandra''s phone had been confiscated before she entered the room, so there was no way for her to do


    anything before Ayan called the police.


    Ayan continued, "Do you think it''s worth sacrificing your future?"


    Sandra tightly pursed her lips, her mind in a mess.


    On one hand, there was her lifelong future, and on the other...


    Indeed, she had something hidden from Ayan, and her resignation was indeed rted to this matter.


    But if she confessed, would she be safe?


    Summoning her courage, Sandra looked at Ayan and said, "Mr. Simpson, I''m sorry!"


    Ayan''s eyes narrowed suddenly. He knew exactly what this apology meant.


    In a detached tone, he asked, "Since you''ve admitted it, tell me, who instructed you to do this?"


    Sandra swallowed nervously, still visibly tense. She spoke in a low voice, "Mr. Simpson, if I tell you, can


    you guarantee my safe departure from Simpson Group without any danger?"


    "That depends on your sincerity. If you continue to drag things out, I might not have the patience to


    negotiate any conditions with you."


    Ayan showed no intention of negotiating with her.


    Sandra didn''t have the luxury of contemting further. She simply wanted a sum of money to live a


    better life. So she honestly told Ayan, "He promised to give me one million. I want to use that money to


    buy a house in Hance City. Although I''m wellpensated, it''s still far from enough to buy a house


    here. He gave me a down payment of five hundred thousand and said he only needed information


    about your and Mrs. Simpson''s itinerary and schedule. He won''t harm Mrs. Simpson, so I..."


    "Sandra, I''m not here to listen to your exnations or excuses. If you want to prove your innocence in


    this matter, you better tell me right now, who is he?"


    "It''s Austin!!" Of course, Sandra knew Austin. She had frequently seen him when he joined the project


    with Mr. and Mrs. Bell. They would asionally exchange greetings since he was the person in charge


    of the cooperatingpany. As assistants, they naturally needed to be polite and courteous.


    After Sandra uttered Austin''s name, she instantly felt a sense of relief wash over her.


    Apologizing to Ayan once again, she said, "Mr. Simpson, I know that it was my selfishness that caused


    trouble for you and Mrs. Simpson. If you want to hold me responsible, I ept it. I just hope you won''t


    let Austin know that I told you all this. Becausepared to you, I really don''t want to offend Austin. In


    that case, I would truly have no way out."


    Having worked at Simpson Group for so long, Sandra naturally had known about Ayan''s character. He


    wouldn''t be harsh on his employees, let alone go too far. But Austin was different. From the disputes


    between Austin and Cora, to Austin''s disregard for Cora''s actions when she went to the Simpson


    family, and his involvement with Eileen, she could discern Austin''s basic character.


    If Austin found out that she had told Ayan everything, he definitely wouldn''t let her off the hook. At that


    point, she would truly have nowhere to turn.


    Facing Sandra''s plea, Ayan paid no attention and simply asked, "Do you know where Austin is?"


    Sandra shook her head. "It was only about the money between us and him asking me to confirm your


    and Mrs. Simpson''s schedules. I genuinely don''t know anything else. If I did, I would have told you."


    Perhaps worried that Ayan wouldn''t believe her, Sandra assured him once again and raised her hand


    as if to swear.


    Ayan gave her a deep look, then walked towards the door, gesturing for her to open it. He said calmly,


    "I''ll deal with your matter after I handle Austin''s. It''s best if you don''t go anywhere right now. Stay at the


    After saying that, Ayan strode out.


    He immediately ordered his people to check Austin''s schedule for the past few days. Now that they


    knew who was behind it, the investigation would progress faster.


    Based on hotel surveince, Austin had left the hotel this morning and hadn''t returned since. He was


    definitely with Camille right now.


    Ayan repeatedly reminded himself not to panic and to stay calm and rational. Austin wasn''t just after


    money; his ultimate goal was probably something else.


    But despite trying to stayposed, he couldn''t help but worry about Camille''s safety. How was she


    doing right now? Was she scared?


    Soon, his people discovered Austin''s whereabouts. After leaving the hotel in the morning, he drove


    directly to an abandoned vacation spa vi in the suburbs. It was a well-known deserted vi with hot


    springs in Hance City. The project had been discontinued for over a decade due to the investor fleeing


    the country, causing financial problems that hindered itspletion. No one dared to take over such a


    massive project.


    The vi had arge area and provided good hiding. So when Ayan received this information, he wasn''t


    particrly surprised.


    Since Austin wasn''t familiar with Hance City, these were the only ces with notorious reputation that


    he could find.


    Ayan asked John to detain Sandra while he personally went to the spa vi with his assistants.


    On his way to the vi, Ayan received a call from Kian.


    Kian said, "Mr. Simpson, we followed the guidance of the tracker and came to a house in a suburban


    vige. It''s a single, isted house, with no neighbors nearby. It seems to have been prepared in


    advance. However, only the man driving the car entered the house. The car is parked outside, and the


    money in the car hasn''t been touched. So, I suspect Mrs. Simpson probably isn''t there."


    "Don''t worry, keep an eye on it. I''ve made a new discovery here. I''ll let you knowter, and once I''m


    sure, you can directly take control of the situation on your side."


    "What did you discover, Mr. Simpson?"


    "I''ll let you know once I confirm it."


    "Okay, Mr. Simpson. Stay safe."


    "Alright."


    After the call ended, Ayan sat in the car with a nk expression, devoid of any extra emotions. The


    atmosphere inside the car was incredibly quiet, unsettling the hearts of those present.
