When She Stops Playing Nice

Chapter 454
Clinton, fuming from attack from both A b b e and Ethan, felt a wave of dizziness. "Fine, I'm leaving
Ethan interjected, "You don't need to go. I'll leave right away. This is so annoying. I just wanted to have a meal, and all I get is this nonsense!"
Without another word, Ethan stormed out while A b b e tried to stop him. “Hey, Ethan, don't leave, you haven't eaten yet. Don't listen to your father's nagging." „Elhan didn't even glance back
A b b ie glared at Clinton angrily. "Are you happy now? You drove our son away. Marrying you must have been my punishment for past sins."
fault?" Clinton was also speechless. "Why are you blaming me? I didn't even mention the problems with his project yet, and he exploded. How is that my The couple started arguing again.
Ethan was deep in thought as he walked out of the house. He didn't have much money on hand, and his project was worth a few hundred million dollars. He worried about not having enough funds if an urgent need arose. But everything seemed fine with the project for now, so he decided to stop worrying
unnecessarily and not scare himsell
Ethan was about to relax when he suddenly received a call from his secretary. When he picked up the call, he heard the secretary say anxiously, "Mr. Jackson, the chief technical researcher of our team has just tendered his resignation." "What? Wasn't he doing well? Why did he suddenly want to resign?"
Ethan listened as he got into his car
"Mr. Jackson, our research on the all-in-one medical examination machine has been very successful, attracting a lot of attention. Many are eyeing our core technology and someone offered him a higher salary, and he was tempted," the secretary explained.
"Tempted?" Ethan laughed angrily. "Have I treated him poorly?"
"No, but people always look for better opportunities," the secretary said.
"Does he think I'm underpaying him? He's such a traitor!" Ethan was furious. The project was based on unique technology and if others acquired it, his competitive edge would be lost.
Ethan felt something was off as problems started to arise just when he was low on funds. He wondered if someone was trying to sabotage him and guessed that it might be Gina or Gabriel
Ethan felt that his suspicions were reasonable, thinking that they were the ones who wanted to poach his technicians as they couldn't bear to see him doing well. His thoughts were interrupted by the secretary's voice. "Mr. Jackson? Mr. Jackson?"
"What is it?" Ethan was getting impatient
"I would like to ask about our next steps," the secretary said.
"Isn't it obvious? We need to retain the researcher Ethan thought.
Ethan punched the steering wheel in frustration "What's the use of having you?
You only know how to ask me what to do, don't even know how to help me solve the problems."
"Sorry, Mr. Jackson."
Ethan hung up the phone angrily, messaging his temples white calling Ibrahim, 01:04 Sat, 15 Jun M
Chapter 454
Ibrahim was not surprised that Ethan would call him immediately and answered with a sneer. "Mr. Ethan, what a coincidence. I was just about to call
you
Ethan rolled his eyes. "Why do you want to call me?"
"Our team is busy upgrading the all in one medical examination machine. Hence,
the lab needs new medical equipment, and we need funding," Ibrahim
explained.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier when I was at Harry's house?" Ethan was enraged,
Mt. Ethan, don't be angry. Mr. Harry had something to tell you back then and how could an outsider like me interrupt?" Ibrahim continued to pretend to
be humble.
Ethan gritted his teeth. "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
"Mr. Ethan, please calm down. Even if i interrupted at that time, what would it change? Are you going to choose not to help Harry?" (brahim countered. Ethan was stunned by Ibrahim's question.
Ibrahim continued to press on. "Mr. Ethan, you care for your family and are grateful to them, so I couldn't tell you that our project needs money and suggest you not help your uncle. Later, I did give you a solution, didn't I?I didn't spell it out, but I was considering our team and the project's success."
Ethan sighed, rubbing his forehead. "Give me the bank manager's contact." "Right away," Ibrahim replied smoothly while laughing silently as Ethan had taken the bait.
Gina arrived at Xander's ward.
As soon as Xander saw her, he immediately tried to get up from his bed.
"Miss Miller"
"Stay in bed," Gina said calmly.
She then sat on a chair and asked, "How did you get kidnapped?"
"I don't know. I was unconscious after drinking a glass of water at home. After
that, I was kept in a sack the whole time and I didn't even see my kidnappers, Xander explained, holding his head.
"Do you or your father have any enemies?" Gina still wanted to ask Xander about
the situation.
Xander thought for a moment and replied, "if I had to name someone, it would be
Henry, but he's already been arrested."
So, the problem lies with the Blue Vale Hospital," Gina concluded.
"Blue Vale Hospital? What's wrong with them?" Xander was puzzled.
"We're still investigating. Besides you, has anyone else around you been to Blue
Vale Hospital for check-ups?".
"The hospital offers cheap check-ups, so many of my neighbors have been
there."
"Did anything happen to them?" Gina asked.
"No, they are all fine."
Gina stood up after getting the information "Rest well. I will continue to
investigate. Since I've promised to help you find your father, I will keep my word.
Don't worry."

Xander was so touched that he choked and said, "Miss Miller, thank you. I can
never repay your kindness to my family. If there's anything I can do to help. please let me know. I don't want to just sit and wait for news."
Gina said calmly, "Xander, don't worry. Sorry for saying it too directly, it's just that
you really can't help."
The hospital issue is too complex and it wasn't something an ordinary person like
Xander could get involved in. Hence, it was better for Xander not to participate in
the investigation.
Seeing his disappointment, Gina added, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking
down on you,"
"I understand. Alright, Miss Miller. Anyway, thank you!" Xander said.
"No problem." Gina got up and left the ward.
