Back in Love
Chapter 388 A Dangerous New Project

Lola blinked, her eyelashes like butterfly fluttering. "You... You already knew it?"

"Uncle William did such a bad thing to me. Of course I should be on guard against him. He thought I did it for his and grandma's sake, but in fact, I have already sent someone to watch his every move! I know exactly what he is doing! Uncle William has accepted money, power and even beautiful women which are gave by Murphy. So his trouble is Murphy."

Hearing this, Lola opened her mouth wide in surprise. "You mean... Okay, I'll deal with it. I'll go to see grandma tomorrow. I heard that Aunt Catherine will also go."

"No, you don't have to go. All you need to do is watch the show. It is easy for me to solve Uncle William, and even I don't need to care about whether he will betray the company or not... In fact, if he would betray the company, it will be better for me."

Lola thought about it carefully and frowned, "Why? I don't understand."

Sitting next to Lola, Jacob turned his face sideways and raised a deadly smile at the corners of his mouth. "Do you know why I still keep Uncle William in the company after what happened before?"

Lola shook her head.

"Uncle William is an old man of the company. Although he doesn't make much contribution, he has worked hard for decades. If he is kicked out just because of fighting for power, the old men on the board of directors will not let me go easily... Although I'm not afraid of them, the last thing I want to hear is their nagging. They will chase after me every day! After all, in their eyes, I am selfish and don't care about family affection. But it will be different if Uncle William betrayed the company. Needless to say, the old men on the board of directors will kick him away and will never allow him to step into the Gu Group..."

Lola sighed and shook her head. She couldn't help but feel respectful. "You really have a good plan!"

It seemed that he didn't need her to worry about anything. He had done a good job.

Lola knew that Jacob must have been waiting for the day when his Uncle William gave himself away. Before that, Jacob was just hiding.

"If I don't have such means, how can I manage the whole Gu Group! And how can I dare to put Uncle William in the company? You don't have to worry about anything. Uncle William can't touch the real core technology of the company at all. My people will naturally pay close attention to him and won't give him any chance! As for their plan to buy a lot of shares... As long as my, grandma's and your shares are in hand, no one else can shake my position! Even Uncle William won't be stupid to sacrifice his shares..."

Lola's heavy heart was finally a little relieved, and then she remembered what Lily had said. She frowned and said, "Is there a new group of people in the Gu Group?"

Jacob turned around and looked at Lola seriously. "You have known it?"

"Someone told me. Among the new employees of the Gu Group, there should be someone who was planted by Murphy! You have to carefully investigate and replace that person, because it is very likely that the person is the key..."

The expression on Jacob's face changed, as if he had thought of something, and then his expression became more and more serious.

Lola was so nervous that she grabbed his arm and asked, "What's wrong?"

When Jacob looked up, he saw Lola's concerned face. He smiled and said, "Nothing. I just remember that I haven't seen the information of these people. It's time for the human resources department to investigate..."

"What position are the new employees?"

Jacob patted Lola's hand gently and said calmly, "Nothing."

"Jacob, tell me now. I want to know if it's important. Please don't hide it from me. Your face changed just now. There must be something more than that... What do they do in the company now?"

Looking at Lola's lips moving up and down, Jacob felt a trace of softness in his heart. He calmly reached out his hand and rubbed her hair. "Why are you so nervous? I've told you nothing. Do you really think that I will be scared? I just didn't expect that Murphy would send someone in..."

"What happened? If you don't tell me, I won't talk to you anymore. I will really be angry!" After saying that, Lola turned around and frowned. Her mind was in a mess.

With a gentle sigh, Jacob straightened her body and put his forehead on her forehead seriously. "Don't be angry. I'll tell you."

Lola felt stressed and lowered her eyes.

"It's not surprising that new employees come to the company every month. But I specially poached a group of technical personnel from all over the world to join the new project team for development and research. At present, there is some progress... I think if Murphy really sends someone in, he won't be an unimportant person. It's likely to be in this group of people..."

Hearing this, Lola raised her head, pressed Jacob's arms and frowned, "A technical staff?"

"Yes. The principal technical personnel. There are five people in total, all of whom are highly paid."

Jacob continued seriously, "If one of them really works for Murphy, then things will get tricky."

Lola's heart jolted. "Fortunately, we have noticed it. We can replace that person first and then move on with the project..."

"Lola, the project has begun. If it stops, we will suffer a huge loss," Jacob said seriously.

"I've been thinking about developing a new perfume for a long time. I've heard that a new type of material can bring unique enjoyment to the perfume, so I hired five experts to study it and bought several patents. The board of directors also passed this project, and they all think highly of the future of this perfume! A large number of materials and resources have been put into the market in the early stage. Moreover, I don't want to stop. I have to make a unique perfume!"

The more Lola thought about it, the more she felt that it was like a big net that surrounded her and Jacob. They couldn't catch their breath!

She couldn't help but feel a little cold.

"Then what should we do? Are you going to continue the new project?" Looking at Jacob's expression, Lola seemed to have expected it. So she shook her head slightly and said, "It's too risky for you to do so! Have you ever thought about what will happen if something goes wrong?"

"No matter what kind of impact it is, I can bear it. Anyway, I will make this perfume!"

"Why?" Lola shook her head in confusion, showing that she couldn't understand Jacob's state of mind. "Is it so important to you? If you stop now, although you will suffer losses, you won't fail. But if you are not careful enough, there will be problems with the perfume, and with the help of Murphy and others, do you think what you will face? Do you know how serious the matter is?"

Jacob leaned forward, took Lola's hand and put it in his heart, letting her feel the pounding heartbeat.

"You are right. This perfume is very important to me."

"But..."

"It is as important as you," Jacob said with a smile.
