That afternoon, William posted on his Weibo, saying that the Stanton Group had been using inferior
materials to make cosmetics. He also revealed a large amount of data, pointing out that the Stanton
Group had evaded tax for hundreds of millions.
As the news came from William, the general manager of the branch company of the Stanton Group, it
seemed highly credible.
As he posted it online, it immediately caused a heated discussion on the Internet.
The stock of the Stanton Group also hit a limit ten minutes later.
Things happened too quickly. The Stanton Group did not even have time to react before the stock
slumped.
Blair rushed to the Stanton Group upon hearing the news.
After entering Josh's office, Blair asked anxiously, "Dad, what happened? Why did William suddenly
reveal those things?"
Josh was so angry.
"I also want to know why, but he doesn't answer my phone!"
Josh said while calling someone.
"Hey, think of a way to remove William's post!" After Josh finished the call, he clutched his chest in
anger and sat on the chair with a pale face.
Blair quickly ran towards Josh. She took out a small bottle from his pocket, poured a pill from it, and
sent it into his mouth. She then caressed his chest. Josh felt better.
"Dad, don't be angry. It's bad for your health."
"How can I not be angry? Just see what he posted online. If it is not removed, our group will be ruined."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBlair looked at Josh in a daze.
"Dad, you are so nervous. Everything in that post online is true? Our group really..."
"What's the use of saying this now? Find out where William is! Find him as soon as possible!" Josh
ordered.
Before Blair said OK, Josh's secretary rushed in.
"Mr. Stanton, it is worse now. The relevant department just called and asked to investigate all the
accounts of our group. And the Procuratorate called and asked to investigate all the stock products of
our group."
Josh slumped onto the sofa.
It was over!
Blair was stunned.
She didn't know what had happened.
When she understood the situation, she quickly grabbed Josh's arm and said, "Dad, what should we
do? Now that both the Procuratorate and tax authorities will investigate our company, what should we
do?"
Josh leaned in his chair with his eyes closed. He made a decision.
Josh held Blair's hand tightly, "Blair, leave here."
"Leave?" Blair was stunned, "Where should I go?"
"Leave Peace City and go abroad. Leave here this afternoon. It's late to leave tomorrow. So, leave with
your mother this afternoon."
"I go with my mother. What about you?"
Josh looked so depressed.
He laughed at himself, "Now, both the Procuratorate and tax authorities keep an eye on us. Do you
think I can still leave? If I go with you, none of us can leave."
He nudged Blair, "Go home quickly and pack up with your mother. Then go to the airport and take the
earliest international flight abroad."
Blair held Josh's hand tightly, "No. Dad, we have to go together. If we leave, what do you do with it?"
"Don't worry about me. If you don't go now, you can't leave when the Procuratorate and tax authorities
come. I don't want you to go to jail with me. Besides, I have already made arrangements abroad. You
don't have to worry about your life abroad."
"But..."
"No more worries. Just go."
Josh urged Blair to leave. She hugged Josh tightly. She then resolutely turned around and left his
office. She rushed home to pick up her mother.
...

Blair and her mother Kathy rushed to the airport with their luggage. Then, Blair took their ID cards and
passports to the Ticket Hall.
The ticket seller took the cards and passports from Blair.
"Where are you going?"
Blair asked anxiously, "What time does the earliest flight abroad take off?"
"Passengers are going through the security inspection of the flight to Paris at 4. 20 pm."

the security checkpoint.
It wouldn't take long to get on the plane after passing the inspection.
Blair held Kathy's hand tightly.
The person in front of Blair had just passed the inspection. As she was just about to hand over her
ticket, several people suddenly came.
One of them waved his work pass in front of Blair.
"Miss Blair, Ms. Kathy, we are from the prosecutor's office. You can't leave the country now. Please
follow us back to the prosecutor's office for investigation!"
Blair composed herself and smiled, "Do you guys make mistakes? My mother and I are going overseas
for a vacation. We are about to board the plane. Please don't make jokes, okay?"
"Miss Blair, if you refuse to cooperate, we have the right to enforce it. Please don't put us in that
situation!" The person in front of Blair said in a tough tone. Her face instantly turned pale and her body
trembled greatly.
It was over. She couldn't leave.
Ms. Kathy shook Blair's hand in fear, "Blair, what should we do?"
Blair bit the bullet and said nothing.
In the end, Blair and Ms. Kathy followed them and left the airport.
Outside the airport, a car was waiting for them.

Audrey narrowed her eyes as she stared in the direction the car had left, and gave a smile of
relief.
