Chad Jennings always thought that he was responsible for his sister's being lost.Janette Lawson's words at that time made him realize that someone kidnapped his sister.Janette Lawson glanced at Chad Jennings, patted Chad Jennings's back gently, and continued, "And, the last phone call my dad made before his car accident was to."She took a deep breath at that juncture before continuing, "It was a call to your father. However, the call was not connected before the car accident happened. As such, that was not an accident, but a planned murder instead. I also investigated the person who called my father. He died in a car accident too, just like my father. Both accidents occurred just two hours apart."Janette Lawson wiped her tears gently after she spoke. The private room was in complete silence.After a long time, Chad Jennings asked coldly, "Why didn't you tell me back then?""How can I tell you that my father was killed because he found out some leads about Snow Jennings?""S
When Matilda saw how Janette was acting, she hurriedly greeted, "Ms. Lawson, you're being too kind. This time, Bellenuite is offering some very good conditions. Allow me to explain.""There's no need!" Yet, Janette immediately stopped her, "The Lawson Group will be investing 140 million dollars into Bellenuite!""What?"Matilda was completely stunned, but Janette walked onto the stage and grabbed the microphone before looking at Matilda and saying, "I said that Lawson Group will be investing 140 million dollars into you. Of course, there are some conditions attached! Ms. Sachs, if you're interested, then we can talk about it in private!"Those words caused a gasp of surprise across the venue. That was because an investment of that level was no different from just buying Bellenuite over.Matilda did not dare to agree on the spot and fell into silent thought instead.In her eyes, that investment was not going to come easy.However, Jojo reacted very quickly, immediately approachin
Late at night, in the suite, Matilda finally made her decision."Ms. Lawson, I'll agree to your conditions. Shall we formalize it by signing the contract?""Of course!"When Janette agreed so promptly, Matilda breathed a sigh of relief.Jojo brought the contract over, and both parties signed and stamped it with their official seals, completing the 140 million dollar investment.Matilda wanted to celebrate with some champagne, but Janette rejected her.Before she left, Janette said to Matilda, "The investment will be disbursed in three installments. The first time will be 60 million, while the rest will be given evenly in the next two installments. Also, Marilyn is in Bloomington right now. She's a part of the medical team from Europe that the Long family invited over."Walking out with Janette, Matilda said in surprise after she heard that, "But I met that medical team this afternoon. I didn't see my cousin there."Janette smiled slightly and said, "According to my sources, she
"I'm going back soon.""Have a safe trip!" Chad said, but he was still thinking about the photo on his phone."Can't you speak properly? You're even wishing for a safe trip for me. Don't you want anything you want to ask?"Janette's words reminded Chad, so he said, "Congratulations to you for investing 140 million into Bellenuite.""You! You little rascal! Forget it, I don't want to argue with you anymore. Remember to come see me when you're free.""Yes, I will."After hanging up, Chad vaguely felt that Janette had something to say to him.However, compared to his sister, nothing else was important. So, with that in mind, he picked up his phone and looked through his chat history with Black Phoenix. In Chad's freshman year, Black Phoenix added Chad on social media, claiming to be a private investigator.Initially, Chad thought that they were a scammer, but Black Phoenix accurately provided all the information about Chad's sister.Black Phoenix even said that it would be im
If that was his sister in the photo, then where was she? Was she living a good life?Black Phoenix did not mention anything about that at all. Chad excitedly flipped open the album, and it was filled with pictures of his sister.He wanted to figure out which city his sister was in from the photos, but the images were blurred and impossible to discern."Chad, you're back. Your parents have been looking for Snow for ten years. Have they found her?" Chad looked over when he heard the voice and saw a middle-aged woman standing by the door. She was Dorren Welt.She was standing at the entrance of the shop with a hopeful look on her face. When Chad saw her, he felt his heart twist with a pang of guilt that surged out.Back then, the whole of Templer Road was mobilized to look for Snow.Yet, in that process, two unfortunate accidents happened.Doreen's husband, Jack Welt, was involved in a car accident while looking for Snow and had passed away.Thud.Chad knelt in front of Doree
"Ah, there's no harm in talking about it. It's just a guess in the community here, and some rumors around here too. Before Snow went missing, didn't your father go for a consultation at some important person's house?"As Chad listened to what Arthur had to say, he found out about some things that he did not know about back then.Ten years ago, after returning from the Hawthorne family, Chad's father went for a consultation at the home of someone important.That person, to make sure all of the attending doctors would treat him to the best of their skills, kidnapped a close relative of all the consulting doctors. However, the person still died in the end.Hearing that, Chad clenched his fist tightly.Meanwhile, Arthur sighed as he said with a heavy heart, "Ah, we're just telling you all of this to advise you against searching blindly as your parents did."Grayson took over, saying, "That's right! It's been ten years. We don't even know how they're doing right now."Doreen's eyes
While Chad was staring at the photo in the news, Matilda opened the door to John's room at Bloomington Hospital.John lay on the bed in a pitiful state, with both his arms broken and his upper half completely bandaged like a mummy.When Matilda saw him, she both felt pity and anger and scolded John, "I've already divorced him, so why did you provoke him for no reason?!"Celine was upset when she heard that and cried out with red eyes, "Are you sure you're still my daughter? Your brother did all this for you"Matilda was a bit frustrated as well, "But he went to find Chad. How'd he end up offending Mr. Hawthorne from the Sangrea Group?"Celine was even more unhappy at that, sobbing as she argued, "Matilda, where's your humanity? Your brother was the one who was beaten up. Didn't you say that Chad left without anything? Why does he still have a property at Templer Road?"Matilda felt a headache coming on. She knew that her mother and brother were being unreasonable, but she had no
Celine saw that Matilda was adamant that she would not give any money, and started to curse and swear, "Matilda, did you feed your heart to the dogs? He's your brother! Your brother suffered so much for your sake, that both his arms were broken. He just wants a little money from you, so how could you refuse him? You are heartless. I've wasted so many years of my life raising you." As Matilda heard her mother's cursing behind her, her tears constantly fell.Yet, what could she do when they knew nothing and were so unreasonable?After she walked into the elevator, Matilda cursed to herself. It was all Chad's fault!She felt like, after their divorce, Chad was constantly targeting her. First, he ruined her talks with the Hart family. Then, he almost ruined her banquet the night before.Chad was just despicable!…"Achoo!"In the Hall of Herbs, Chad suddenly let out a sneeze. He rubbed his nose as he found Matilda's number.They were just divorced for a few days, so Matilda's n
