Chapter 424: He Said Someone in the Family Wanted to Take His Life

Sawyer could hardly believe that he would actually meet the person he wanted to see the most on this island.

That person was Emily, his true granddaughter.

They hugged each other tightly for a long time before something seemed to strike Sawyer’s mind.

“Emily, why are you here? Why … Did Hunter bring you here? Are you fine? Did they bully you? Did you get hurt?”

Seeing the lump on Emily’s forehead, Sawyer was quite worried.

“What’s going on? Who hurt you? Is it Hunter?”

Emily remained an innocent and pure girl, but Hunter actually vented his anger on her. He crossed the line!

Emily shook her head and sniffed, managing to stop her tears.

“It’s not him. I didn’t drive carefully and slammed on the brakes. After bumping into the steering wheel, I was knocked unconscious.”

She rubbed her eyes and finally calmed down.

“Grandfather, Sasha, why are you here?”

Hearing this, Sasha felt extremely guilty and sad.

“Milady, have you also known who you are?”

“Actually, I’m not sure yet, but I’m also pretty sure at the same time.”

Emily held Sawyer’s hands tightly. “Previously I took my own hair and Grandfather’s hair for DNA testing. But the result is I am not your granddaughter.”

“How can that be?” Both Sawyer and Sasha were shocked.

Sasha hurried to say, “However, we clearly heard Wendy admit that she used your blood sample to have a DNA test with Dad in Bentson City. The result is that you are indeed related to each other.”

“That’s why I suspect that someone did something to our hair samples. The only possibility is …”

Emily bit her lip. Until now, she didn’t want to doubt that person.

However, it was no longer a question of doubt. That was obviously the truth and she had to face it.

“Probably, Hunter didn’t want me to get reunited with you so quickly. I believe he asked someone to change our hair samples.”

“It’s Hunter again!” Sasha clenched her fists with her eyes filled with anger.

“What happened? Did Hunter also … do something to you? Was he involved in this matter?”

Emily felt something clutching her heart, making her heartbroken!

The last thing she wanted to see was for Hunter to make members of the Gale family in trouble.

But now …

“He didn’t do anything to us. Instead, he rescued us from the high seas.”

Sawyer held her hand and sighed helplessly.

“However, I think I can understand Hunter’s feelings. He didn’t want to join hands with Wendy, but he also hated to see me live comfortably. That’s why he left us here.”

“Since he isn’t in partnership with Wendy, why couldn’t he make things easier for our Gale family?”

Sasha couldn’t understand this. Could it be that what Sawyer said to her today had something to do with this matter?

Sasha looked at Sawyer, feeling more and more suspicious, “Dad, is there an enmity … between you and him? Did the Gale Group offend the Jackson Group before?”

However, normal business competition was inevitable wherever it was.

If Hunter took a revenge because of this, weren’t there a large number of companies that had competed with the Jackson Group in the marketplace?

How many people could Hunter retaliate against?

When it came to his relationship with Hunter, Sawyer always wouldn’t say more.

Sasha knew that there must be an historic enmity between her father and the Jackson family.

However, he was unwilling to say anything about it. Now that things had been like this, nobody could do anything about it.

“Milady, accompany your grandpa back to his room for a rest. I’ll go and study how to steer the speedboat.”

Sasha was also very worried right now. What she was most concerned about was the Gale Group’s future.

“I hope Joseph can try his best to save the situation and not let Wendy do anything she wants.”

“Joseph …” Emily didn’t want to dash their hopes, but there was something she had to tell them.

“Milady, what’s wrong? Did something happen to Joseph?”

Sawyer and Sasha stared at her anxiously at the same time.

“Before I fainted, his people received the information that Wendy had taken you to the high seas, so …”

Emily hesitated for a moment and continued, “He went to the high seas to find you with his men.”

“What?” If what Emily said was true and Joseph couldn’t return today, wouldn’t the Gale group …

Darkness came over Sawyer’s eyes and he almost fainted.

Sasha and Emily were startled and supported him in time.

“Grandfather, don’t think about anything. Go back and rest first.”

“There’re doctors on the island. Hurry up, send him over and see the doctor!”

Today, there was indeed an upheaval in the Gale Group.

Joseph hadn’t returned yet, and no one could contact him.

And now, the meeting room was filled with directors of the Gale Group.

Today the board meeting was held to dismiss Joseph from his post as president.

Wendy would be designated as the new president.

“It’s impossible for my father to appoint you as president without informing us.” Lottie was the first to stand up.

“That’s right, we can’t accept this either, unless the chairman comes back and explains it to us personally.”

A group of old employees also owned a small stake in the company, and they were all on Lottie’s side.

“Lottie, it’s Grandpa who appointed me as president. I also have the share transfer he gave me.”

Wendy sat in the main seat. The person sitting next to her wasn’t a core employee, but an old shareholder of the Gale Group!

The one with the longest seniority was Carl Gale, Sawyer’s half-brother and Lottie’s uncle.

“We’ve already asked the lawyer to authenticate this transfer. It’s true and effective. From now on, Wendy will take over Sawyer’s shares.”

“Uncle! She is not Dad’s granddaughter, nor an heir to our Gale Group. She is an imposter!”

Lottie glared at Wendy, “Also, she asked someone to take Dad and Sasha away. Right now, we don’t know their whereabouts yet!”

“I’ve already called the police. They will soon find out what she had done!”

“Sorry, I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Wendy was unafraid and smiled disapprovingly, “The police had taken a statement from me. If they suspected me, why didn’t they arrest me?”

“Actually, this transfer was signed on Thursday. Take a look at the time yourself.”

Wendy looked sideways at Lottie without fear.

“I remember clearly that on Friday morning, Grandfather and Sasha appeared in front of the media. At that time, I was with Hunter. If you don’t believe me, you can send someone to investigate.”

She had alibis for not being involved in the disappearance of Sawyer and Sasha.

It was Sasha who tricked Sawyer into going out to sea. What did it have to do with her?

Now that both of them had disappeared after going out to sea, no matter how the police investigated, they couldn’t suspect her.

“Lottie, now I have every reason to doubt that you are scheming against Grandpa. Otherwise, he wouldn’t transfer the shares to me in advance. He even told me that someone in the family wanted to take his life!
