Chapter 965 Can’t Fathom
“Then Ms. Webb…” Kyle couldn’t help worrying, because Lucia knew that Arthur was investigating Casper.
“Don’t reveal a word,” Arthur said decisively, “I don’t want to distract her. By the way, did you find the man whom I asked you to check last time?”
“I have found it, but there is no useful information. I only know that he is from abroad. There are two men and a woman accompanying him. All four of them live in the Dekee hotel. However, it is worth noting that the woman is a native of the country.”
“Have you found the name?” Arthur didn’t take this matter to heart when he heard this, and lowered his head again to focus on the document in his hand. It was just a routine question, but when Kyle reported their names, he raised his head abruptly.
“What did you say they were called?!” Arthur’s eyes widened rarely, staring straight at Kyle.
Kyle was taken aback by Arthur’s reaction, and hastily repeated,
“One is Lauren Osade, the other is Stoffer Paulino, and the man you and Ms. Webb met on the plane is Dely Toriola. Mr. Davies, is there any problem with these people?”
Arthur unconsciously clenched the pen in his hand, and his voice became low,
“Of course there is a problem. It’s a big problem…”
Lauren! He actually came here!
Why not notify him?!
“Mr. Davies?” Kyle didn’t know it. He only worked with Arthur after he returned to the country, so he didn’t know his relationship with him when he was studying, and naturally he didn’t understand what the name Lauren meant to Arthur.
“Go and investigate the itineraries of these people right away. When did they enter the country? Who did they meet? What did they do in Athegate, and who is the woman who accompanies them? I want to know the answer as soon as possible!” Arthur raised his head. His eyes became extremely sharp, and he quickly assigned tasks to Kyle.
Kyle didn’t dare to neglect, and hurried out to investigate the matter.
In the office, Arthur slowly let go of the pen in his hand, and when it fell to the table with a ding, he picked up his phone and contacted Lola.
As soon as the call was connected, Arthur didn’t respond to Lola’s usual teasing, but asked her directly,
“Lauren came to Athegate, did you know that?”
Lola was surprised when she heard the words, and immediately replied seriously,
“What? He went to Athegate? I don’t know, but he said he would notify you himself if he found out about Jacob’s whereabouts. What? Did you meet? What did he say?”
“That’s the crux of the matter. I just found out by accident that he has come to Athegate,” Arthur now finally knew why Dely kept watching him and Lucia on the plane. It turned out that he already knew who he was. He continued,
“But he hasn’t contacted me so far. He only stays in a hotel in the city. I don’t even know when he entered the country.”
“What does Lauren want to do?” Lola felt that Lauren’s actions were really unpredictable.
“It’s probably related to a woman in the country he brought with him, and I’m ordering Kyle to investigate her identity,” Arthur said.
“Women?” Lola sneered when she thought of the group of beautiful women he had been surrounded by when she went to Mexico to find him.
“Maybe it’s just his lover. Arthur, you’d better contact him immediately. Don’t make Lauren think anything.”
Arthur responded lightly, but he still believed in his instincts. Lauren’s coming to the country must have something to do with Jacob’s whereabouts. There was no doubt about it, but he hadn’t contacted him until now. So the problem can only be with the woman who came out of nowhere.
Seeing that Arthur stopped talking, Lola said worriedly,
“Arthur, Lauren has a cunning mind and has always been a maverick. Although we are old friends, you still have to be careful when dealing with him.”
“I understand,” Arthur replied, “I’ll be careful.”
After finishing the call with Lola, Arthur turned and looked out the window. From the Davonnis Corp building, the building where the Dekee hotel was located was six kilometers away in a straight line, and Lauren should be there at this time.
“Lauren, what on earth do you want to do…” Arthur couldn’t help pondering, and doubts filled Arthur’s eyes and bottom of his heart.
At this moment, Lauren didn’t know that Arthur already knew that he was in Athegate. At this time, he was taking Eve and Nia back to Athegate after the seaside trip.
On the plane, Nia had already informed Eve privately that she might encounter Casper’s troubles these days, so she asked Lauren to keep her in the hotel, so Eve told Lauren as soon as she got off the plane.
“Mr. Osade, my sister wants to take care of me by my side these days. Can she go back to the hotel with us?”
Lauren glanced at Nia when he heard the words, and saw that she deliberately buried her head in silence. He sneered and said,
“Of course, she’s your sister, isn’t she?”
Although there was some sarcasm hidden in Lauren’s words, after hearing the answer, Nia still bent her lips and raised her head to say thank you. Eve was even happier. Thinking that her sister would be with her for several days, she reached out and held him for a moment. Touching Lauren’s arm, she said sweetly,
“Mr. Osade, thank you so much! This way we can live together.”
Lauren looked down at Eve holding his hand, with a faint smile on his face, and a strange light in his eyes. When Eve caught his sight, she froze for a moment, and pulled her hand back in the next second, blushing.
Nia on the side saw the subtle interaction between the two, and was even more overjoyed in her heart. The backer she found was the right one.
Now that Lauren had agreed, the three of them drove back to the hotel together. Nia was still the driver, leaving the ambiguous atmosphere to the two people in the back seat. At this time, she didn’t notice that there was a black car behind her car.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
It happened to be noon when they arrived at the hotel. After asking the attendant to bring the luggage back to the room, Lauren first took Eve and Nia to the hotel restaurant for dinner. Stoffer and Dely also came to the restaurant after receiving the news. They hadn’t seen him for a few days, so they were worried about him.
When Stoffer and Dely walked into the restaurant together, their tall statures attracted the attention of many people, including Lucia who happened to be dining with customers.
Today was the last day of negotiation. Lucia had signed all the agreements with the client, and the client was going back in the afternoon, so she treated him to dinner and saw him off. Unexpectedly, she ran into Dely by accident. Lucia was just curious, but when she saw Dely walking towards Lauren, her body froze for an instant, and she even forgot to put down the wine glass that was held in mid-air.
