Chapter Wife 103
The Cherished Wife (Noelle and Charles)
Chapter 103 With Joseph gone, Robert looked really upset. He picked up the phone and dialed a familiarnumber. âGet to my office now. I want to know everything that happened yesterday, down to the lastdetail!â
Joseph stepped out of the Colossus Grou building with a sinking feeling. He suddenly remembered that Jenson Lowry from Colossus Groupwas the head of the Finance Department.
A jolt of fear ran through him. What if Jenson was in trouble? That would mean Robert could be inhot water too. The issues cropping up at Frotconn now were certainly no accident.
He quickly dialed Xavierâs number. âStop working on Robertâs shipment right now. If you can,destroy it all, and donât leave any evidence in writing.â
However, Joseph did not realize that he was only barely scraping the surface.
Robertâs secretary recounted every detail of the previous dayâs events to him. Robertâs face turneda shade of stormy gray. âWhat have you been doing? Why didnât you tell me yesterday? WhereâsJenson now?â
âWâwe donât know.â
âWhat do you mean, you donât know? How can someone just vanish into thin air? Did you even lookfor him?â Robert was fuming. âHe has too much important information. If Charles gets his hands onit, weâre doomed.â
At that moment, despite being restrained, Jenson was being treated to good food and drink byRonaldâs crew.
Jenson knew he was trapped. He had always known working for Robert might lead to trouble, buthe never imagined it would come knocking so soon.
âMr. Hoffman!â
Ronald spotted Charlesâs car rolling up and swung the door open for him. âHeâs inside.â
Charles stepped out, his dark eyes aloof and detached. At Ronaldâs words, he glanced up. âWhatwas that?
11 âHe didnât say much except that heâs excited to meet you!â
Charles quirked an eyebrow, his long fingers drumming on the car door. âAlright. Letâs go check itout.â
When Jenson caught sight of Charles, he shot to his feet. âMr. Hoffman, Lknow I messed up. Iâll tellyou anything you want to know about Mr. Harris. Just promise youâll free me! I have to look after myparents and my kids! I canât end up behind bars!â
Charles shot Ronald a look. Ronald signaled the bodyguards, and two of them quickly steppedforward to yank Jenson to his feet.
âMen shouldnât kneel for no reason. Iâm not your greatâgrandpa, so why kneel to me?â
Charles was clearly amused. He pulled a chair aside and took a seat with a relaxed air.
While Charles seemed totally at ease, Jenson was sweating bullets.
Charles was even more notorious for his ruthless ways than Peter Lennon. If anyone in Brookvillecrossed 1/2 +15 BONUS Mr. Hoffman, he had a million tricks up his sleeve to use against them, none of which would requirehim getting his hands dirty.
The bodyguards pinned Jensonâs hands, not allowing him to move even an inch. His face wasdripping with sweat.
Charles squinted slightly and chuckled softly. âRelease him.â
The moment the bodyguard let go, Jenson slumped to the floor like he was boneless. âMr. Hoffman,Iâve got a ledger here with records of Mr. Harrisâs secret dealings over the years. Heâs also startedtwo companies with Collosus Groupâs money.â
A sharp glint shone in Charlesâs eyes. âGo on.â
âMr. Harris has been pulling money out of Collosus Group every six months, using all sorts ofexcuses to funnel it into his own businesses. Heâd always shuffle the funds around to cover histracks.â
