In his office, Wayne sat drowsily on the leather couch, one hand on his brow.
Meanwhile, Ryan sat on another couch, his arms supporting his thighs and his body leaning forward. As he stared at the coffee table in front of him, his fingers were crossed, and his eyes were blurry.
Putting on a serious expression, Ryan said, âI believe that Ada entered the country using another personâs identity. Plus, she was acting discreetly. She did nothing herself but have someone else do everything for her. What makes it more difficult for us to track her down is that these people only worked with her briefly, and no one knows who she is.â
After pausing for a while, Ryan kept going, âAt this point, this is the quickest way I can think of to find Ada. | donât need to police to do this for me. Actually, | can ask my friends to help me with it.â
Before nodding, Wayne frowned and remained silent for a long time. âIâm just afraid that even if we find Ada, we wonât be able to get Anna to win her case,â he worried, Ryan understood why Wayne was worried. Ada had taken a big risk by returning to Birmingham, and she had gone to great lengths to plan everything. Even if they found her, she might refuse to admit that Bill worked for her.
âIf we cannot do so, we will have to turn to one last option. Anna told us that Gary is Adaâs son. We can threaten her with Gary.â
Wayne nodded as he said, âOkay, thatâs our only choice. Iâll leave this matter to you. Also, is the guy you found trustworthy?â 491 Stay Out Of It âI can assure you that we can trust him. But, there is one more problem.â
âWhat is it?â
âI think we should put a tracker on Ada, but itis risky and dangerous. If she finds out about it, weâll be in big trouble. However, we havenât found a better tracking system yet.â
Wayne was perplexed and asked, âYou must have used a lot of tracking devices in the army. So, you can choose the one that works best for you.â
âEthan hasnât had much experience with these types of cases, and he learned limited things in school as an undergraduate. Iâm worried that heâll failâ Ryan shook his head and said.
âSo, what do you recommend?â
Ryan paused for a long time before responding. At that point, Noel burst through the office door, exclaiming, âSomeone has come to see you, Mr. Wright. I canât stop him.â
Wayne frowned as he noticed a tall man emerge from behind Noel. The man walked past Noel and went straight into the office with a calm expression âThat is very typical of you! You never tell me before breaking into my place,â Glaring at the man, Wayne said with a pout.
Jasper didnât seem bothered by his sarcasm. He sat down on the couch, raising an eyebrow toward Wayneâs phone and said, âBefore | came here, | called you three times. | believe you were too busy to answer the phone, and perhaps you were too scared to face me after what happened.â
Embarrassed, Wayne also leaned back in his chair. He then looked at his phone on the coffee table and said, âDid you forget that Iâm Annaâs 491 Stay Out Of It husband now?â
âI was Annaâs husband, too,â Jasper laughed, âBut Iâm a lot more reliable than you.â
Hearing his sarcastic words, Wayne frowned immediately.
âThe satellite positioning system that our company has recently developed might come in handy,â Ignoring Wayne, Jasper said to Ryan.
At the time, Ryan was extremely embarrassed and didnât know what to do. But when he heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said, âTell me more about it.â
âAside from using a small tracker, we have another option. We can use viruses to help us. We can hack into her phoneâs system and locate her as. soon as she taps on a link or QR code to our program.â
âThatâs the dumbest thing Iâve ever heard of in my life,â Wayne said calmly.
Yet, Ryan didnât notice Wayne was upset and continued, âWe might be able to pull it off if we think of a method related to this now. Itâs certainly less risky than simply implanting a tracker in Ada.â
âcan give you my companyâs director of technologyâs cell phone number, and you can contact him.â Jasper nodded and started talking to Ryan. They completely ignored Wayne.
Ryan immediately nodded and ignored which side he was supposed to be on. Wayne stood motionless, cursing his brother in his mind.
â| have something to discuss with Ethan, so Iâm leaving now.â It wasnât until then that Ryan noticed the strange atmosphere. So he left the office after saying that.
After he left, the office was very quiet, with two men sitti couch facing each other. 491 Stay Out Of it II âWhat else are you going to do if this doesnât work?â Jasper asked.
Wayne gave him a glance, then leaned back on the cushion and ignored him.
âIf your wife is a murderer, it will be a huge blow to your personal image. Furthermore, the impact on the entire Carousel Group would be far greater than anticipated. Of course, you donât need me to remind you because you must have a backup plan.â
After a brief pause, Jasper added, âIn everything | do, | like to plan for the worst-case scenario first, and Iâm guessing youâll do the same. So, what are your plans if Anna is convicted? Do you want a divorce before the verdict, or do you want to keep your marriage to her hidden from the public?â
âIt sounds like you have a better idea,â Wayne said, irritated.
Jasper said, âBut my actions will be determined by your plan. Iâve accepted the fact that Anna only likes you, so | wonât do anything if you can solve this. But if you try to abandon Anna, | will go to any length to save herâ
They locked their gazes on each other like a war was about to break out.
âand when that happens, she will have nothing to do with you,â Jasper appeared to threaten Wayne and made him feel he was in a huge crisis.
âYou said | was her husband, so youâd better stay out of this,â With a straight face, Wayne said.
âIâd like to hear and see what you intend to do. Wayne chuckled, âDo you want to hear my briefing? Ha! Not until you merge my company.â 491 Stay Out Of It il âIf you want to sacrifice Anna to save your company, | will acquire it later,â Jasper said as he stood up.
He walked toward the door and then came to a halt.With one hand on the doorknob, he turned back and said, âIâve shifted my focus to England and delegated management of the New York branch to someone else. We can have a good chat if Anna can leave the jail safely. You know, just the two of us.â
âOkay,â Wayne said with a nod.
After Jasper left the building, Wayne told Noel, who was standing outside the door, to go into his office.
âHowâs the thing | asked you to do?â Wayne asked Noel as soon as he stepped into his office.
Upon seeing Wayneâs darkened face, Noel was terrified. He paused for a long time before saying, âIâve found the right person to help us. But, Mr. Wright, will this be too dangerous? It is not legal. Once the public learns of this, our reputation will be ruined!â
Wayne frowned and said, âYou appear to be more concerned with the company than | am. Do you want to be the president?â
With a shudder, Noel waved his hands and said, âHuh? No! Thatâs not what | meant. Iâve got everything planned, and Iâll do whatever you want.â
âThen get out and leave me alone,â Wayne said, nodding and waving his hand.
Then Noel exhaled a sigh of relief and exited the office. He, too, stood in the doorway and took a deep breath, as Ryan had done a few moments before.
At the same time, in the office, Wayne darkened his expression. He had the aggressive gaze of a wolf, Resting his chin on his fist, he thought to 491 Stay Out Of It himself, Well, /âm not a Wright by blood. Giving the company to Ryan, its true owner, is the right thing to do, as long as it helps me save Anna from all the trouble.
