On the top floor of Time Group, Henry was at his desk when he received a call from Richard.
Henry knocked on the door and entered John's office. "Mr. Shi, one of the branches caught a traitor. Richard is interrogating her as we speak. A video feed has already been established."
Henry held the tablet screen in his hand in front of John. On the screen, there was a woman with messy hair and a formal suit with a company logo on the jacket.
She was the CFO of Time Group branch. She was not only an established employee but a senior manager no less.
John had been searching for so long that he didn't expect the traitor to be holding such a high position.
"Katy Xu, it's you!" John's voice was so calm, you'd never believe he was confronted with such treachery.
Anyone who was familiar with John knew how enraged he could get and what misery would befall Katy Xu.
"Ah..." Katy Xu's desperate scream sounded on the screen, but it didn't arouse any emotion out of John.
After a while, when Katy Xu appeared on the screen again, her face was swollen, and the red palm print on her face glowed even in the dark room. There wa
ceful palm, with the tablet crashing to the floor. Looking through the screen, Richard couldn't see John anymore but he could feel his anger.
Henry held his breath. After a while, he said cautiously, "But Mr. Shi's father found Mrs. Shi and chose her to be his daughter-in-law."
Richard's mission in life was to protect John. He disagreed with what Henry said. "Mr. Sam Shi got the marriage licenses for Mr. and Mrs. Shi two years ago, but Mrs. Shi only met Ms. Shi a little over two months ago."
With his deep and unpredictable eyes, John snapped, "I don't want to hear your suspicions again. Send someone to keep an eye on Albert."
Then he stood up and drove back to North Yard.
He left the car window wide open feeling the piercing wind whistle against him as he sped home.
Richard's guess was reasonable and the constant thought of it felt like a thorn in John's side.
He didn't want to doubt Nina.
But she had been acting suspicious recently. She was very attentive for no real reason.
It just so happened to coincide with his most turbulent conflict with Albert.
'My little girl, don't let me doubt you.'
