NovelEnglishI nodded, not planning to hide it from her." The Fredericks wanted to reach a cooperation with the local trade and
commerce in Limbia, but the Zimmersons who manage the trade and commerce decided to pick Grant
Corporation, so Jordan kidnapped Theo and forced him to sign the contract to transfer the trade and commerce
cooperation to him. But his plan didn't succeed in the end."
Cally's complexion grew even paler. She found it impossible to believe that Jordan actually did such a thing and
did not know what to say for a moment.
Elena looked at Theo with concern and heartache, but she did not ask anything. She said to Cally, "For the sake
of profit, the Fredericks Corporation you're working for was willing to resort to illegal means and failed to observe
proper limits."
Cally pursed her lips but made no answer.
"Mr. Grant, I'm really sorry that Mr. Fredericks has hurt you. | also know that you've made your decision. | can't

Corporation."
Theo glanced at her but did not say anything. He merely said to Elena, "Contact a lawyer."
He tookaway after saying that.
After getting into the car, | finally asked the question that had been bothering me," Did you already know these
things a long tago, Theo?"
Elena said that this was discovered after the workers moved the equipment in order to paint the walls, but |
knew that only Jordan and Theo could enter this operation room. Even Elena could not go in. Hence, someone
deliberately wanted others to find out about this underground garage. That person was most likely Theo.
Theo withdrew his gaze from the car window and looked atwith gentle eyes. "I had someone check the walls
the moment you toldabout the problem with the wall construction."
| pursed my lips. "Why didn't you expose him back then? Why did you wait until now?"
Theo narrowed his eyes. “If | had raised this issue back then, Jordan would surely have set a bigger trap for me. |
would have to spend tlooking into it again. Since | already knew what he was up to, | might as well go along
with his plan."
Sure enough, an entrepreneur's brain worked differently.
| sighed. "So you knew that Jordan would surely make a move when you arrived at Limbia, and after learning that
he had also arrived in Limbia, you wanted to return to the hotel immediately."
Theo nodded. "But my men lost him, so | wasn't able to receive news of him arriving in Limbia. Otherwise, his
men wouldn't have takenaway either."
It was no wonder he acted so leisurely when he met up with Milan to compete for the business cooperation. It

| pursed my lips and asked, "Do you believe that Milan actually died just like that?" "From what I heard, the
deceased body was Milan. The DNA profiles match."
| was stunned. "I find it a little hard to believe it. Jordan killed him just like that? Besides, how can a sly man like
Milan die so easily?"
It was too sudden. Initially, | thought that Jordan had obtained the man's body from a hospital in order to
befuddle us, but I never expected him to actually murder someone-especially not his business partner.
The car stopped at the entrance of the villa. As we had not been back for so long, Theo hired a cleaning lady to
cover and clean up the place. At this moment, the lady happened to finish cleaning up and was about to
leave.
When she saw us, the lady walked up to Theo and said, "A tall and hunky man cby earlier and said that he
was looking for Mrs. Grant, but when he saw that both of you weren't around, he askedto pass on a «
message. He asked you to be careful."
