Chapter 632 - Manhunt
Ayan finished and did not intend to give Benjamin any opportunity to
speak and directly reached out to take Kian handed the tablet, he
slightly narrowed his eyes, deep under the eyes reveal a few deep and
light smile.
He spoke lightly: "This is the police department's pursuit information,
things because the matter has a relationship with the Simpson Group,
so I have kept a backup, just let Kian also specially contacted the police
side to ask the results, the results are not yet any news."
Ayan did not indicate what the matter is, but from his words can already
tell that this matter is not trivial, after all, involves the pursuit as well as
the police, naturally it is a matter of breaking the law.
So immediately after his words, Mr. Bell said, âIs there something
wrong with Mr. Simpson?"
Ayan just smiled: "Something happened with the Simpson Group
before, but it's behind us now and it's all in the hands of the police.â
Ayan finished, his gaze swept to Benjamin, and his tone was not warm,
"Mr. Baxter is familiar, so that's one of the main reasons why I asked
Mr. Baxter so many questions and background.â
"What does Mr. Simpson mean by this?" Benjamin asked faintly.
Ayan: "Mr. Baxter take it easy, I just want everyone here to see it, and
save Mr. Baxter the misunderstanding that I'm targeting you."
Ayan handed the tablet in his hand directly to Mr. Bell: "Look, does Mr.
Baxter resemble the person on the wanted message?"
Mr. Bell picked up the tablet and scanned the contents of the tablet
screen with the man's picture as well as his name and the details of the
incident.
Mr. Bell said, "Preston?"
Ayan did not say anything, just side glance to Benjamin's gaze, under
the eyes reveal a few meaningful look, nonchalant look.
Kian light voice in response to Mr. Bell's question, he said: "Mr. Bell,
this Preston before deliberately set up a project of the Simpson Group
caused personnel victims, although the impact on the Simpson Group
is not large, but wantonly hurt innocent people simply abominable, so
the Simpson Mr. Simpson Group as Simpson Group president naturally
will not easily forgive, Mr. Simpson joint police investigation Preston,
the result of Preston drove directly into the river so far there is no news,
so Mr. Simpson saw Mr. Baxter after feeling very familiar, which asked
two more questions. "
Kian's words have explained the general situation clearly, Mr. Bell read
the contents of the tablet and then handed it to Mrs. Bell, and then just
passed it one by one for everyone in the room to read.
After the tablet reached Benjamin's hand, he just swept his eyes down
lightly and said with a smile on his face, "Mr. Simpson means that I am
the same person as this Preston?"
"I certainly didn't say that.â
âIsn't that what Mr. Simpson is saying?"
"Mr. Baxter much worry, as I said, the reason for more questions just
because Mr. Baxter let me feel very familiar, and this matter is not a
trivial matter, has been involved in the issue of life and death, I naturally
hope to understand, since Mr. Baxter think Preston has nothing to do
with you, then why should be nervous? *
Ayan hooked his lips and smiled lightly, and the forced look in his eyes
was filled with a sense of pressure.
Benjamin's face stiffened slightly and he pretended to be fine: "Of
course I'm not nervous, I just think Mr. Simpson has been targeting me
since we met today, does Mr. Simpson have any misunderstanding
about me? Is Mr. Simpson misunderstanding me? Is it because I'm late
so he wants to give me a warning? Or does Mr. Simpson think I'm
someone from the Norman Group, so he has something against me?"
He converted Ayan's attitude into something else, implying between his
words that Ayan said and did this just because he was Austin's
replacement for the project, so he took out his dissatisfaction with
Austin on him, which in disguise was also telling everyone that Ayan
was small-minded.
But his words were followed by no response from anyone else, and
everyone was lost in what they had just seen.
If the man in front of you is really Preston, what is he after?
Horace has never been too fond of meddling in matters other than his
interests, but if Benjamin really is Preston, then what will happen later
cannot be predicted.
Since Ayan poked the matter away, it was natural to suspect
something, so he went along with it and said, "Everyone wait, Mr.
Baxter or give us an accurate response!"
"Mr. Burris, what response do you want?"
"Are you Preston or not?"
"Of course not, how can I be Preston, I don't even know who Preston
is, there are many similar looking people in this world, is every similar
looking person related?" Benjamin thought it was absurd to hear, and
the smile on his face was helpless.
Horace nodded and asked no more questions, but said lightly, "Mr.
Simpson, how do you think we should handle this? While we are all
here, it's better to make it clear, at least to avoid any unfavorable
accidents and risks to the project in the future!"
"What Mr. Burris said is, let Mr. Baxter say that it has nothing to do with
Preston, then take it as I had to confirm it one more time for the good of
the project, so Mr. Burris don't take it to heart and have a
misunderstanding.â
Ayan smiled lightly, the corners of his mouth slightly upward arc, but the
bottom of his deep eyes did not change at all.
Benjamin pursed his lips, his tone revealing his displeasure, but still
kept a light smile on his face; "So this meal is everyone's trial of me?
Just because I'm the people from Norman Group, should I be treated
differently? If this is the case, then why did Mr. Simpson promise the
Norman Group to replace people? Instead of just kicking the Norman
Group out of the game?"
He looked at Mr. Bell, smiled lightly, and said in a low voice: "Mr. Bell, if
you think so too, then just tell me, I and the Norman Group will not stalk
me, now that I'm in the project, Mr. Simpson and this Mr. Burris seem to
have a strong opinion of me Ah!"
Mr. Bell: "Mr. Baxter misunderstood, Mr. Simpson should also just worry
about it." Mr. Bell was caught in the middle, he looked to Ayan: "Mr.
Simpson, what do you think?"
Mr. Bell this face Ayan will undoubtedly give, he hooked his lips a smile:
"Mr. Bell said yes, I also just because of worry, if there is no relationship
with Mr. Baxter, Mr. Baxter can just say that is, why so serious?"
Benjamin was also staring at him, and their eyes locked.
The meal did not go well, because Mr. Bell's moderate Ayan did not
continue to pursue.
Horace, however, asked curiously, âI don't suppose the scar on Mr.
Baxter's face has been there long?"
"Almost a year now." Benjamin swept to Horace, he did not know
Horace, only know to Armstrong Corp financing, the rest of the
information do not know much, instead, his attitude let Benjamin
subconsciously crossed him to a piece with Ayan, these two people are
afraid that there is not any friendship between them, right?
Benjamin didn't wait for Horace to say anything else, and briefly
explained two more things about his scar, and subconsciously revealed
the hospital records of his scar treatment at Campole.
Because his answer explained the whole thing clearly and
unambiguously, the rest of the people did not continue the topic.
Afterwards, everyone talked about project-related topics, as if the
scene had never happened.
Just the whole time, only one person did not speak.
Camille she hadn't opened her mouth all night except for the two
sentences Mrs. Bell asked her about.
I did not eat much of the meal, and my heart was extremely heavy.
The meal didn't end until after 9:00 pm.
The meal is Benjamin host naturally by his bill, after the group from the
private room out of the restaurant.
The group also said goodbye in the parking lot, and after the discussion
just now, Benjamin will officially take over all the work that Austin left
behind tomorrow.
Camille and Ayan left in the same car, Kian drove, the atmosphere in
the car was a little quiet, both sat in the back seat did not speak.
Until Kian's cell phone rang, he picked up and wondered what was said
on the other end, only to hear him report back to Ayan when it was
over, "Mr. Simpson, he's staying at Austin's place.â
Ayan did not say anything, deep eyes swept to the woman beside him,
then reached out to take her hand, his voice gentle and asked, "Why
don't you say anything? What's on your mind?"
