NovelEnglish| found Jordan's phone number and was just about to call him when something dawned on him. He snatched my
phone away in a hurry, saying with a disgusted expression, "I just praised you for not being so stupid and now
you're going to act like a fool in front of me?"
| froze. "W-What's wrong?"
"Why are you giving him a call when you don't even know if he's an enemy or a friend? If it weren't for your
family background, it would be really strange for Theo to have fallen in love with a stupid woman like you."
Why was this man so sharp-tongued?
I sighed, asking, "You suspect him?" "Of course." Tory stuffed the phone into my arms. "Do you think only Theo
and Milan are eager to have business cooperations in Limbia? Do you not know that the Fredericks want a slice
of the cake too? If cooperation can be reached, the benefits brought will be unimaginable.

Businessmen will do anything for the sake of profit. Why else do you think Jordan cto Limbia? You think he's
here on a vacation? Wake up. Stop being so naive."
His words awoke me, and my thoughts becclear.
| looked at him and said seriously, "So, 1 can't only suspect Milan right now but all the people who want a piece
of that cake."
"Stop with your reasoning. No amount of reasoning can save your husband," Tory mercilessly said.
| lowered my head. Tory was right. Everyone was the enemy in the face of interest. There was no kinship or
friendship. A person could use any means in the face of huge interest.
When Harold gave Theo such a huge piece of cake, it was bound to make a lot of people envious. They would try
to snatch this piece of cake away from him, doing anything just to do it.
| pursed my lips and looked up at Tory. "Do you have any good suggestions?"
This time, he said readily, "Call your father's subordinates and ask him to find a way to pull up records of Jordan's
whereabouts for the past two days and who he's been seeing lately. Have them look into the Fredericks’
industries in Limbia as well. Find out whether any of them have had large inflows of money lately."
I nodded and got up, saying, "Thanks."
| was ready to leave but Tory stopped me. "Is there something else?" | curiously asked.
Tory sighed, saying with a helpless expression, "Don't do anything by yourself right now. It's best if you can
instruct someone to do it. You're Theo's wife. If this culprit is an extremely selfish person and wants even more
things, he might make you a target. You must know that Grant Corporation will be yours if anything were to
happen to Theo."
I broke out in a cold sweat because of his words.

Was this culprit also trying to get his hands on Grant Corporation?
What strong ambition!
"What do | do now?’ Tory looked as though he was dumbfounded by my foolishness. "It's either you stay in a
hotel with the subordinates your father sent you and you don't take a step out of the hotel because you might be
in danger, or you can stay here and decide the next course of action after finding out Theo's whereabouts."
| pursed my lips. "Can | stay here?"
"You can. It's just inconvenient. That's why | suggest you stay in the hotel because no one can threatenif you
die."
How could someone make agreeing sound so infuriating?
Since | had decided to stay here, | called Solomon to inform him about it. | then instructed him to investigate «
Milan and Jordan and get back towith answers immediately.
