Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

562 They Knew About Wayne's True Identity

"Don't you already have a gun? Why do you need more?" Puzzled, Patrick asked

"I'll distribute the guns to everyone on the team. In this way, we can keep ourselves safe and gain the initiative."

"What do you mean?"

Anna frowned, saying, "Today, I saw Smith at the grocery store. He wasn't wearing a uniform. And he was accompanied by two soldiers. He appeared to have placed an order with the grocery store owner some time ago."

"What is it?"

"It's a time bomb hidden inside a leather case."

Surprised, Patrick asked, "Really? Are you sure?"

"Of course."

Then Patrick asked with suspicion, "How is this even possible? They came here with many soldiers and a large number of weapons. Why would they bother to customize a bomb at such a town?"

"I suspect he's keeping that bomb for himself," Furrowing her brows, Anna said

Patrick froze for a moment. When he thought of the fact that Anna had suddenly decided to buy guns in bulk, he realized what was going on

"Is he planning on blowing up our station?" In shock, he asked

"Shh! Keep your voice down!" With a frown, Anna said. As Patrick stopped the car, Anna asked, lifting her chin toward the lighted room in the

front yard, "Does she live there?"

Hearing the sound of a woman coughing coming from that room, Patrick said with a nod, "That's right. Let's go."

In the evening, a group of police officers arrived at the hospital in the town near the mountain. "Have you seen this young man?" A young plainclothes officer asked several nurses. He showed them a picture of Matthew

One of the nurses looked at the photo for a moment before saying, "I'm sure I've seen him. He arrived last night."

"Is he still in the hospital?"

"He left the hospital early this morning. Someone picked him up here."

"Who?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know."

"Did the person take any notes when they left?"

"Yes."

Although this was a small hospital, the staff kept meticulous records on each patient. So, it didn't take the officer long to find the note

A few minutes later, Ryan received a text message. He froze when he saw that picture

"How are things going? Did they find any clues?" Karl asked

Ryan paused for a moment before handing Karl his phone. Confused, Karl asked, "Huh? Anna took Matthew away? How is this even possible? Annais still at Fleosil at the time, and there is no way she'd return and take

Matthew away from the hospital."

"But this is her handwriting."

"Someone must've faked her handwriting. That person is so shrewd!

561 They Knew About Wayne's A] The hospital is run-down, and there isn't even a security camera there. We can't find anything there! Where are they taking Matthew?" Karl said anxiously

Ryan exhaled deeply and said, "Calm down. The very least we can do now is ensure Matthew's safety. Well. It's highly likely that he got hurt

Otherwise, they would not have taken the risk of sending him to the hospital."

"So, how is he?"

"Matthew was diagnosed with a concussion. He was in a coma when he was taken to the hospital."

Shocked, Karl stood up right away. "Huh? If he doesn't get treatment right away, his condition will get worse! Have you sent them out to find him yet?"

"I've dispatched people to look for him, but there's no word from them yet. I have no idea what's going on." Ryan's phone rang at that precise moment. And he answered the call, "Hello? What's up, Emily?" "Did you find Matthew yet?" Over the phone, Emily asked

"We're still looking for him

"The board is back with a new drama."

"What's going on?" Ryan asked, shocked

"Long story short, they found out about Wayne's true identity and called a shareholders' meeting and invited all of the directors. Your mom is on her way there."

"I'll be right there!" After hanging up the phone, Ryan quickly grabbed his jacket and left the room. He didn't have time to explain anything to anyone. On his way, he kept thinking, This is so strange! Why did everything happen all at once recently? First, Matthew went missing. And

561 They Knew About Wayne's NSF now, the board of directors tried to find someone to replace him. It can't be a coincidence that these two things happened at the same time!

Meanwhile, in one of the meeting rooms of the Carousel Group headquarters, many people were arguing.

"He's not even a member of the Wright family, and he's still a teenager. What gives him the authority to be the group's president?"

"No, you're wrong! He's been coming to the office a lot since he was a

kid, so I know him well. I know he's a business genius! He's outperformed the adults since taking over the group."

"But no one believes he can manage the group well. In short, we cannot let him manage such a large group!"

At that moment, someone opened the meeting room door. After seeing Jennie, the crowd fell silent. Jennie was dressed in a long black dress and a black coat, giving her an oppressive appearance "What brings you here, Mrs. Wright? Where is Matthew?" One of the board members asked condescendingly

With a calm face, Jennie replied, "Matthew has been resting at home lately because he isn't feeling well. I'm filling in for him at the meeting."

"Is he sick, or has something else happened to him? Mrs. Wright, you can't fool us. Everyone has heard that Matthew's car crashed off a cliff."

Jennie looked at that man and said, "You should have seen on the news that the rescuers had found the empty car. Matthew was not in the car when it crashed. He suffered minor injuries, and the doctor said he would be fine after some rest at home. You can send the documents he needs to sign directly to my house."

One of the directors sneered and said, "Mrs. Wright, are you serious? Why would we send files to your home? We won't allow anyone outside the

561 They Knew About Wayne's. YY Wright family to handle these matters."

"What? Do you dare to say that in front of my father again?!"

"Yes, of course. Mrs. Wright, you know best who Wayne's father is. Of course, you know whether or not he is your father's biological grandson!"

"Isn't the company's discretion distributed based on equity? What's the point of caring about such trivial matters?"

"Yes, it is true that it is distributed based on equity. But, sorry, I propose that it's time for us to elect a new executive president. Matthew owns less than fifty percent of the company. So, as long as two-thirds of people here vote to re-elect, he will no longer be president."

Matthew's identity has no direct bearing on whether he will be elected president, but it would undoubtedly influence the shareholders' decision. At that thought, Jennie frowned deeply

Then a director said, "Many of us here have been working at the company for many years. Carousel can achieve such success because of Peter's hard work. He can't work right now, but that's not the reason we should leave his company in the hands of someone who isn't a Wright."

"Mrs. Wright, if you want to make decisions on Matthew's behalf, you can also vote. I completely agree with this, and I believe everyone else also does."

"You..." Jennie was trembling with rage. She was well aware that these people were taking advantage of the fact that neither Peter nor Matthew were present. As a result, they wanted to steal the painstaking fruits of the Wrights

At that precise moment, someone opened the door. Ryan then stormed in with a group of people. And everyone in the meeting room was taken aback by their presence
