Chapter 1233 It Was Not As Good As An Ordinary Company

Robert looked Lisa right in the eye, and Lisa couldn't help but tremble in fear.

She thought that Robert had come to know something from the past.

"What? What are you talking about, Robert? How can I keep anything from you?"

Lisa said, rapidly blinking her eyes. At that moment, Adam's face appeared in her mind.

"Well, it's good if you have nothing to hide from me. Please give me some time alone as I'm really tired. I need to have a long rest. Can I come and talk to you later when I wake up?"

Robert's gaze had become tender.

As he talked, he touched Lisa's face gently.

At that moment, Lisa's heart suddenly started to beat faster and faster.

"All right. Have a good rest then. I'll just sit outside in the living room."

After Lisa left, Robert's face returned to his normal expression. He had no spirit to do anything at all. Getting up from the bed, he went to the bathroom in an attempt to wash up.

Looking at his haggard face in the mirror, Robert shook his head helplessly.

Just after he brushed his teeth and washed his face, his cell phone started to ring.

He picked up his phone and saw that he was getting a call from Linda.

"Hello?"

"Robert, when you called last night, did you have anything to tell me?"

After Charles went to his company, Linda called Robert back.

"Did I call you?" Robert was confused.

"Right. Didn't you call me last night? Or did you just dial my number by accident?"

"I didn't call you yesterday. Lisa must have checked my phone and called,"

Robert replied calmly. Now, he was almost sure that his suspicion was right. Lisa must have gone through his phone last night.

"Did you confront her?"

"Not yet. She must be keeping something from me. But I don't want the gloves to come off before I can figure out what it is,"

Robert answered, telling Linda exactly what was in his mind.

"All right then. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. If

office, Linda called Robert and asked him to come along.

Hearing that they were going to look for clues about Adam's disappearance, Robert agreed to come at once. But when he was leaving the house, he was at a loss for what to tell Lisa about where he was going.

Luckily for Robert, Lisa didn't probe him about where he was going as she was trying to improve their relationship. With the nicest tone she could muster, she told Robert to take care of himself and asked him whether he would be back in time for dinner.

To make sure that Lisa couldn't find out where he was going, Robert drove his car by himself. He had already gotten the address of the office in a text message from Linda.

They met at the entrance of the company.

The company's name was HX.

The group of four walked into the office where Robert had met his brother many times. In the past, HX Company had been the best company under the Huo's Group. No one had expected that it would go bankrupt one day.

Why had Vincent Zhou, the man who was pretending to be Adam, done this to the Huo Clan? Had the Huo Clan done anything to offend him?

He had made a mess out of the Huo's Group. The Huo's Group belonged to one of the top four clans in SH City but now, it was not even as good as an ordinary company.
