"Hi there, is this Mr. Heyton?"
In the City Hospital, several police officers appeared in the face of Jackson with an application form for investigation in hand.
"What's the matter?" Jackson's expression changed slightly.
"Several shareholders of your company are accused of illegal acts including bribery and crowd drug abusing. You, as the legal person and who is in charge of the company, come with us please." The policemen said.
'Bribery?'
'Drug abusing?'
Jackson's brain worked quickly. It didn't take him long to guess that this was Emily's scheme, but he didn't expect her to use such a dirty trick.
He underestimated her.
Jackson nodded and asked, "Alright, can you wait for me for a while?"
"Sorry, no."
Jackson looked at them and said, "I am going inside to say something to my wife. It's fine even if it's through the door."
The policemen looked at each other, and one of them nodded.
Probably for fear that he would escape, a strong hand of the policeman because had grabbed Jackson's arm.
Jackson opened the door and put his head in. He leaned forward and saw Donna lying on the sickbed. She looked a little better, but it was still not the time to be discharged. He had planned to leave with her tomorrow if the weather was better, but...
"Why haven't you left yet?" Donna saw him and asked confusedly.
Jackson smiled, "I'll leave immediately. It's going to be Tomb-Sweeping Day soon. You know, I might be a little busy."
"I know. Just focus on your business. I can take care of myself. Besides, there are nursing workers here." Donna tilted his head and coughed, waving at him, "You can leave."
Jackson nodded, then looked back and said, "I'm leaving."
"Just leave," Donna said with a smile.
After walking out of the hospital, Jackson asked, "Can I call my lawyer?"
"Sure."
Jackson turned on his phone and found his lawyer first. He wanted to send a message to his son. Then it occurred to him that his son was in the hospital because of the injuries in his legs, so Jackson didn't want to get him involved.
After contacting the lawyer, his phone began to buzz incessantly. It was either a partner or a subordinate client who called. He was still unclear about the current situation. He couldn't rashly answer the call, so he simply turned his phone to silent mode.
On the Internet, a scandal that several important people in charge of Granding Group had been arrested was spread widely. The most important thing was that apart from Granding Group, this matter involved a lot of people, including a popular star, Dixon Hood. He was the male lead who should have been shooting with Stephanie for the Shanghai Legend. For an advertisement for Granding Group last night, he slept in the hotel for dinner. The next day, he returned early and unfortunately caught up on the traffic police checking cars. Maybe he was afraid of being late. Dixon then was in a bad temper, and there was a very special fragrance on his body. It was not the smell of perfume. The traffic police felt strange. After opening the trunk, they found a small bag of ketamine and a special kind of powder, from where the strange fragrance was emitted.
Dixon didn't admit that this thing was his, but after being sent to the police station for a urine test that night, it showed that he had taken drugs.
He denied that and because he was afraid that something would happen to him, he blamed all of this on Granding Group. Near noon, a group of police officers set off to the hotel to arrest the few people who had not yet woken up. And they found a woman, with a bleeding cut on her wrist, soaking in the bathtub.
The woman was Elsie.
The entire police station was bustling with noise.
The whole City Y knew that Granding Group's boss had taken advantage of Maury's death and acquired the Britt Group. Now, the young lady of the Britt Group committed suicide and almost died in the hotel room where the person in charge of Granding Group slept. There were many stories hidden behind.
In short, Granding Group was finished.
Bribery, drug-taking, and almost forcing the young lady of the Britt Group to death, all of these things were enough for people in City Y to gossip for a long time, not to mention that there was also a well-known star, Dixon, involved.
After careful investigations by the police, they found out that the truth was more than that. It seemed that the Potters, who had just had an accident some time ago, were involved.
"Shit!" After Ferne picked up the phone, he was simply unable to express what he was thinking. As he was swearing, he met Noah's eyes and immediately slap his own mouth, "I should have learned my lesson."
"What did you find?" Noah just came out of the bathroom after running on the treadmill for half an hour. He could clearly hear Ferne shouting outside the door. Then he wanted to complain about his words. But when he saw Ferne's flattering face and his smile, he gave up.
"How smart Emily is!" Ferne walked to the kitchen and opened the fridge. Just as he was about to open a bottle of beverage, Noah snatched it away and gestured towards the water dispenser, and said, "Drink some hot water."
As soon as Ferne's dirty words came out, Noah pretended to smash his head with the drink.
"I wish to drink some hot water in the first place." Ferne finished his words and looked enviously at Noah as he unscrewed the bottle cap and looked at his Adam's apple rolling as he gulped down the drink.
"Go ahead." Noah finished drinking and put the drink back into the refrigerator. As he came out hurriedly in a vest in a hurry after taking a bath, he hadn't even dried the water on his body. The vest was soon soaked with water, revealing the clear sketch of muscles underneath. It was fierce and wild. Noah's rolling Adam's apple was emitting the smell of hormones, stimulating Ferne's lust.
Ferne's eyes moved back to his face from Adam's apple, collarbone, chest, muscles, arms, and biceps with great difficulty. He unconsciously licked his lips and asked confusedly, "What do you mean?"
Noah then was lost for words.
"What was I talking about? Yeah, Emily. I thought she was extraordinary when we first met. What a pair of discerning eyes I have." Recalling the previous talking, Ferne continued, "Do you know about the matter concerning Granding Group? It's been a day. Do you know who the mastermind is?"
Noah had already guessed the answer, but still asked with pretending curiosity, "Who?"
"My sister-in-law!" Ferne proudly introduced Emily.
