Chapter 478 Only To Find Kailey
Chapter 478 Only To Find Kailey
"Then you should eat more."
As soon as she finished her words, there was a sudden sound of brake in the yard. As soon as Rachel turned her head, she saw two people, Jonathan and Tracy, rushing in from the outside.
"Why didn't you two tell me what had happened?"
Tears streamed down Tracy's cheeks before she finished her words. "Jack, what's going on?"
Rachel and Jack looked at each other. They deliberately hid the truth from the two elders in order not to make them worry. But now, the matter had become so serious that it seemed that they could no longer hide it.
Putting down her chopsticks, Rachel put her hands on her waist and slowly stood up. "Don't worry. Let's sit down and discuss it, okay?"
"How? Now all the shareholders are asking to dismiss Jack and ask him to withdraw from the board of directors. It... " Tracy choked with sobs and couldn't continue.
With her eyes wide open, Rachel looked at Jack in disbelief, "Why didn't you tell me a word about such an important thing?"
However, Jack replied indifferently, "I won't tell you because I will only make you worried."
Then he called Jonathan, and pulled Tracy to sit down on the sofa. He said in a low voice, "Dad, mom, I will solve this matter. Don't worry."
"Solve it? How are you going to solve it?" Jonathan's face turned red. He slapped the table heavily and said, "If you can solve it, you won't let it go like this."
"If your mother and I hadn't gone out and gone to the company by the way, how long would you hide this matter from us? You didn't tell us until the company became someone else's?"
The more Jonathan said, the more excited he became. At last, he coughed heavily. Tracy hurriedly reached out her hand to rub his back from top to bottom.
Jack pinched between his eyebrows. His face, which had been trying hard not to make any expression, finally showed full of fatigue.
He said in a low voice, "After the news was exposed, several shareholders came to the company to look for me. At that time, I promised them that this matter would not affect the company."
"Then how could it be now?" Jonathan finally calmed down and asked sternly.
Jack sighed slightly and sneered, "I didn't expect that those contractors would directly terminate the contract when they heard the news."
Hearing this, Rachel's heart thumped. He just received a call and heard all these bad news. But when he turned around, he still smiled at her.
How sad he was at that moment.
Rachel held his hand tightly and comforted him silently.
Jack shook hands with her.
In a not spacious commercial house, Benny walked up and down with his mobile phone in his hands. His well-trimmed hair was now in a mess like a thatched hut, and his eyes were covered with red blood.
He looked terrible.
He kept calling, but soon he hung up and kept cursing.
On the second day after Jack's matter was exposed, Kailey suddenly disappeared. He went to all the places she might go, but she was nowhere to be found.
And when he called her, her phone was even shut down.
She seemed to have disappeared from the world.
Hearing the mechanical female voice on the phone, Benny couldn't help throwing the phone out, with his hands in his hair, as if he was about to collapse.
After what had happened, he didn't dare to go anywhere. He locked himself in this small house every day and night. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Suddenly, there was a violent knock on the door.
Benny shivered, and his pale face turned pale. He asked in a trembling voice, "Who is it?"
A rough voice rang at the door, "Open the door. Ning City Public Security Bureau."
Benny felt his legs weak and fell to the ground.
All of a sudden, Michael stepped on the gas and turned the steering wheel. He drove at full speed on the road. Then he parked the car on the side of the road and walked quickly into the house.
"Jack, I have something to tell you." He shouted.
When he entered the room, he was stunned to see Jonathan and Tracy sitting on the sofa.
Rachel waited for a while, but he didn't continue, so she asked, "What's wrong? What is it?"
"Oh." When he realized what had happened, Michael touched his nose and said in a low voice, "Let's go upstairs and have a talk."
Jack shook his head and said, "No need. They all know it. Just tell me."
The corners of his mouth twitched awkwardly, and then Michael regained his serious look. "The police have just found the whereabouts of Benny, and now they have taken him to the police station."
"Does it mean that this matter has nothing to do with Jack?" Raising her eyebrows, Rachel finally felt a little happy.
She shook Jack's arm and said, "he must know the inside story."
Jack reached out and touched her hair, smiling faintly. He didn't say anything, but he was still full of doubts.
He had heard about it before that Scarlett's cousin had been in touch with Benny these days, and he didn't take it seriously after hearing it. Now when he remembered it again, he was afraid that things were not that simple.
Moreover, Benny had been found, but Kailey's whereabouts were still unknown.
His men all said that they couldn't find Kailey, and her friends didn't know where she had gone.
And the friend who had run a bar with her before also looked for her all over the world, because before she disappeared, she had taken all the money in the bar.
Noticing that he was in a daze, Michael waved his hand in front of him and said, "Mr. Qin and others are waiting at the gate of the police station. Let's hurry up and see what he will say!"
Rachel stood up before Jack and said, "I'll go with you."
However, Jack pressed her shoulder and let her sit down again. Then he looked at Jonathan and Tracy and whispered, "Dad, mom, I'm going to the police station. You stay at home with Rachel."
"But, I..." Rachel wanted to say something more, but Jack shook his head at her, and then left quickly with Michael.
Knowing that he didn't want to take her there, Rachel had to calm down and wait at home. She kept praying in her heart, hoping to hear the good news.
As soon as Jack and Michael arrived at the police station, they saw that Henry and Marcus were talking to a police officer. When they walked forward, the conversation just ended.
Looking at the man's back, Michael asked, "What did you say just now?"
Henry and Marcus frowned tightly, as if they didn't hear what he said. None of them spoke.
"Eh?" asked Michael curiously. He poked at Henry and said, "I just said something. Didn't you hear me?"
"Yes, I did." Marcus sighed slightly and then shook his head. "But, the situation may not be very good."
"Does Benny insist that I acquiesce in this matter?" With his hands in his pockets, Jack walked to a rest chair and sat down. His tone was not serious, but more like talking about the weather next day.
Michael frowned and asked, "How did you know that?"
Jack pointed at his temple and said lightly, "Use your brain."
Michael was speechless.
The corners of his mouth twitched, but he could not refute. He had to reach out and push Marcus again. "You two are just wooden men. Tell me, what's going on with this matter? Why don't you say anything? I'm so worried."
Marcus said, "Benny insists that he doesn't know anything about it. On the contrary, Jack told him in advance that a group of friends would borrow a yacht that night and asked him not to disturb them."
Looking at Jack, Henry asked, "What should we do next?"
"I have no choice but to wait." Jack shrugged his shoulders. The people who were in prison now would definitely not tell the truth, and Benny seemed to be shutting his mouth and unwilling to tell the truth.
The only way out now was to find Kailey.
Michael asked hurriedly, "Wait? How long will we wait?"
Then he asked, "Jack, how did you know that Benny didn't want to tell the truth?"
Jack chuckled, "If he says it, everyone should know the consequences. But if he refuses to admit it, then I will be in and he will be safe."
He raised his head and looked at Michael who was in a daze. "If you were him, what would you choose?"
"Of course I choose the latter." Without thinking, Michael almost blurted it out. Then he scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly. He quickly changed the topic and asked, "By the way, what do you want to wait for?"
Jack frowned and didn't say anything. But Henry suddenly understood what he meant. He put his hand on Michael's shoulder and said, "Don't talk too much. No one will regard you as a mute."
Marcus also followed, "I'm starting to doubt that based on your intelligence, is there no employee in your company who wants to usurp the throne?"
"Maybe he doesn't know." Marcus answered immediately. The two men were singing a duet, making Michael unable to fight back.
Rachel thought it would take a long time for them to go out, but Jack came back soon. "Where are dad and mom?"
