Chapter 679: Chapter 679: Be Careful
"You..."
"Miss Wendy, don’t worry, we can have a better cooperation. You should have seen the effects of the drug by now. Remember how he got you into the room? As long as Miss Wendy is willing to cooperate with us, I promise to give you the medicine you most desire."
Wendy Lynch felt a compulsion as if being led by the nose, stepping into some sort of trap step by step.
But she was unwilling to be insulted by Melody Thorne and that other woman, especially since she had already lost the most precious thing for a woman!
"What do you want?"
"I remember your father already holds ten percent of the Quinn Family shares, right?"
...
"It seems like someone is causing trouble behind Wendy Lynch," Harold Chapman played the recorded sound, including all of Wendy Lynch’s conversation with that man just now. This recording firmly proved that Jared Quinn hadn’t touched her."
"Brother Jared, should we release the recording now or wait to catch the person behind her?"
Jared Quinn stared at the computer playing the recording before him, "Release it."
He wanted to show it to the little woman upstairs, to surprise her when she woke up. Although he believed her, nothing was more reliable than this.
"Alright," Harold Chapman prepared the recording, saved a copy, and handed another to Jared Quinn.
"I’ll continue to watch that woman and catch the person behind her as soon as possible," Harold Chapman stood up.
"Wait, I’ll go with you," Leon Rivers put a hand on Harold Chapman’s shoulder, extremely interested in this mysterious person. Truly, there are skies beyond this sky; the medicine he hadn’t developed was unexpectedly snatched by someone else!
"Let’s go."
"Young Master... You..."
"I’m heading to the company," Jared Quinn picked up his coat, paused slightly, "Remember to prepare some nourishing soup for when Madam wakes up."
"And this, give it to her when she wakes up," Jared Quinn handed the recording to the butler. After the gloom of the past few days cleared, his tightly furrowed brows also relaxed a bit.
"Yes, Young Master."
When Melody Thorne woke up, it was already noon. She drank some nourishing soup and listened to the recording the butler handed her. Her focus wasn’t on Wendy Lynch saying that Jared hadn’t touched her, but on the part where they planned to reenact the scene again.
Last time Jared Quinn had touched Wendy Lynch, and this time she planned to make him do it again.
But, was it really Wendy Lynch who drugged Jared Quinn last time? Why hadn’t Jared Quinn noticed?
"Butler, is there any more of this soup? I’d like to take some to Jared Quinn’s company."
"Yes, there’s plenty. Young Master instructed the servants to make more, saying you should drink more," the butler said with a smile, quickly packing some soup for Melody Thorne, "Ma’am, would you like the driver to take you? You’re pregnant now, so it’s better to be cautious."
Melody Thorne glanced down at her belly. It wasn’t showing yet since it was still early, but she should indeed be careful, as she occasionally felt some sharp pains.
"Alright, let the driver take me."
"Alright, right away."
The car reached the gates of Quinn Corporation. Just as Melody Thorne was about to get out, suddenly someone in front of the window was wielding a large rock, fiercely smashing it against the car window glass, aiming for the driver’s head.
The driver let out a muffled groan, the sudden change nearly knocking him out, blood continuously flowing from his forehead.
That person clearly didn’t expect the one driving in front was the driver, and after throwing the rock, they ran away.
