Super Sweetheart of the CEO Daddy -
Chapter 912
The first thing Joshua Wayne did after he left was to check up the accounts of the company. He realized that Eric Marum had actually filled in every single account without leaking any water. Joshua Wayne sat in his office with an ice-cold expression. Only a day after Eric Marum left, many of the company's top officials had already expressed their intentions. It seemed that they had long since reached an agreement and were prosperous together.
In the beginning, he didn't care about money. When he founded this company, it was due to a moment of interest, but he only felt tired from the experience, and the feeling of being betrayed was sometimes even more unacceptable than having a real knife cut off one's flesh.
In the end, Joshua Wayne lost his trust in people, and he became more silent.
Elizabeth Jones saw all of it and felt her heart ache.
In the evening, Joshua Wayne brought Elizabeth Jones the Back to Wayne Family to eat dinner.
At the dining table, Lareina's gaze was a little unfocused. Elizabeth Jones's smiling appearance, caused her to fall into a trance.
The reason why Lareina felt so absent -minded was because at some point in time, it was as if she had really found a trace of April Jones's shadow on her face.
In the past, April Jones had sent Lareina quite a few pictures of her. However, her smiling face and her gentle and sweet appearance, Lareina had seen each and every one of them before.
Because she had deep grudges against him, April Jones's face was still deeply engraved in her memories. Elizabeth Jones noticed that Lareina was looking at her from time to time, and her heart trembled slightly. An uneasy feeling spread through her chest. She suddenly felt as if she was sitting on pins and needles.
At this time, Joshua Wayne invited Edwards Wayne to the study room upstairs to chat.
Lareina was almost troubled by her own speculation, she couldn't help but sigh in the bottom of her heart, what's wrong with her? Why do I keep thinking of Elizabeth Jones and April Jones together? They were clearly two unrelated people, thought so because she had talked about April Jones with her youngest son last time. At that time, Elizabeth Jones was also at her house, if April Jones really had something to do with her, then she wouldn't have acted out at all.
Unless...
Lareina's heart sank.
She did not believe that her sons would deceive her.
In the study on the second floor, the two brothers sat on the sofa and one on the desk, discussing about John Wayne.
Because of his grandfather, although the two really wanted to bring him to justice as soon as possible, there were always many things they had to worry about.
"Brother, Eric Marum has resigned, I plan to recruit new people." Joshua Wayne said.
"Why did he resign? Aren't you the one who trusts him the most? " Edwards Wayne was not sure what had happened in his brother's company, but with the relationship they had built up over the years, Edwards Wayne knew that Eric Marum was a very important person to his brother.
"He is not worthy of my trust. We have fallen out. He set up another company behind my back and is fighting over the business with me." Joshua Wayne said it casually, as though he had taken Eric Marum's matter lightly.
"So that's how it is!" Edwards Wayne was not too surprised, because benefits would change many people.
"I might be a bit busy recently, if you have time, please take care of grandpa and grandma!" Joshua Wayne decided to take care of this matter properly.
"Don't worry, I will take good care of them!" Edwards Wayne walked to his side, reached out and patted his shoulder lightly to show his sympathy and also to show his encouragement.
Brothers are not like sisters, when sisters sad they can hug to cry, together scold and vent hatred.
Ever since Edwards Wayne and Joshua Wayne were young, the way they expressed their feelings was rather depressing, but it was extremely heavy.
"If you need my help, just say so. No matter who betrayed you, I will always be your brother!" Edwards Wayne said with a light smile.
"I know, brother has always been the source of my peace of mind!" Joshua Wayne was a little embarrassed to say such words.
Edwards Wayne quipped: "You even know to be shy in front of me?"
Joshua Wayne shook his head: "Of course I'm not shy. I actually have another thing I want to talk to you about!"
"Oh!" Edwards Wayne raised his brows, indicating him to speak.
The expression in Joshua Wayne's eyes became serious: "Brother, have you ever suspected that someone was secretly helping the John Wayne father and son?" "Why do you say that?" A hint of surprise flashed across Edwards Wayne's face.
Joshua Wayne shook his head: "I don't know, but I just feel that the John Wayne father and son don't have that kind of strength, and think that they can fight against us. If there's no one supporting them from behind, I don't really believe it."
Edwards Wayne's expression slowly grew heavy. "I need to investigate this matter thoroughly. Maybe they found a way to rely on themselves, or maybe someone had already planned for Eric Marum's betrayal to you."
"Yes, I suspect that it is targeting at us, that's why I have to remind you!" Joshua Wayne said in a low voice.
"Do you have a suspect now?" Edwards Wayne's eyes revealed an unfathomable coldness.
"Not at all. Brother, you should think about who can become your opponent in our country!"
"I have a lot of opponents, but I don't put most of them in my eyes. Even though we've been peaceful all these years, it doesn't mean that there aren't any potential enemies." Because of his words, Edwards Wayne's heart was alarmed.
"Maybe I was just guessing, but you still have to be careful!" After Joshua Wayne finished speaking, he lowered his head and looked at his watch: "It's getting late, I went upstairs to say hello to Grandfather, then went back home."
"Are you and Elizabeth Jones getting along well?" Edwards Wayne was still worried for them.
"It's good for now!" Joshua Wayne shrugged his shoulders, and then opened the door and left.
Joshua Wayne went upstairs, but discovered that the old man was already asleep. He couldn't bear to disturb him, so he directly went downstairs.
In the living room, he saw the pale-faced Elizabeth Jones. She was sitting nervously, and her pair of beautiful eyes seemed to constantly stare in the direction of the stairs.
When she saw Joshua Wayne, she secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Joshua Wayne said to her: "Let's go home!"
Elizabeth Jones nodded, the two said their farewells to families, then got into the car and left.
On the way back, Elizabeth Jones clenched both her hands tightly, as if she was extremely nervous.
"What's wrong? You don't look too good!" Joshua Wayne finally realized that something was wrong with her.
Elizabeth Jones bit her lower lip lightly, and said after a long while with a trembling voice. "Joshua Wayne, why don't we tell your mother that I'm April Jones's niece?
"What's wrong with my mother?" Joshua Wayne's brows furrowed, as he nervously held onto the steering wheel.
Actually, he had been avoiding this matter on purpose, thinking that as long as he didn't mention it, he could conceal the past.
But now, it seemed that if he wanted to ignore it, he couldn't.
"Your mom is sizing me up today. I feel like she knows something, so I'm a bit worried!" Elizabeth Jones became more and more timid. Because she cared, she became more cautious.
