Chapter 48
Angela smelled the alcohol on him and couldn’t help frowning. “I’m here to return the Sinclair Group’s shares to you.”
Kenneth sneered, “Angela, you went out of your way to come to Grandma to divorce me, but now you want to return my shares. You don’t want to get divorced again, do you?”
Angela looked at him coldly. “Yes, I do.” ”
“Well. Since you still want to get a divorce, don’t mess with me again. Keep the shares. From now on, we are square”
After a brief silence. Angela said, “When do you go to the Courthouse?”
A look of indifference flashed across Kenneth’s eyes. “Tomorrow morning. Don’t worry. I won’t delay you on purpose.
Angela nodded. “Okay. That’s agreed then.”
As she finished speaking, Kenneth closed the door of the villa directly.
Early the following day, Angels had just entered Empyria Group, and Frank came over with a document
“Ms. Lewis, this is the project we have been planning for half a year. Take a look. If there are no problems, please sign it so we can start the project”
oring Frank’s flattering smile, Angels took the document and said calmly, “Okay, you can go, Mr. Black”
Ignoring
Frank’s smile froze. “Don’t you review it now, Ms. Lewis?”
Angela said, “I have other contracts. I’ll call you after reviewing it
Frank said with a fake smile, “Okay, I see.
After leaving Angela’s office, his face instantly became gloomy.
Thinking of Peter’s threat, Frank knew he would not have money to give Peter if he couldn’t get this project.
Frank had to let Angels sign this contract
In this way, after he got the money, he could repay Peter’s money and leave with the rest. As for the Empyria Group’s situation, it had nothing to do
with him
After Frank left, Angela felt uneasy for no reason..
She checked the time irritably, thinking, The Courthouse is about to open, and Kenneth should call me soon
With this in mind, she felt that time seemed to drag, hoping she could divorce Kenneth smoothly this time.
At around ten o’clock, Angela received a call from Kevin.
“Ms. Lewis, Mr. Sinclair was in a car accident, and he now needs you to sign for surgery. Please come over quickly.”
Angela felt her heart sink as she heard this news. “Il be there right away.”
After hanging up, she sped to the hospital immediately.
Angela signed the agreement, and the operation started. She turned to look at Kevin, asking him, “How could there be a sudden car accident?”
Kevin stated, “This morning, Mr. Sinclair went to the Courthouse. There was a car following him on the way there. The driver noticed something was wrong and wanted to get rid of the car, but when the car drove on the river–crossing bridge, the car accelerated obviously to crash Mr. Sinclair’s
car into the river.
“Then the driver turned the wheel sharply, and the car hit the opposite bus. That car took the opportunity and drove away”
Angela was livid, saying coldly. “Have you investigated the information about that car?”
Kevin answered, “It’s still under investigation, but that car is fake–licensed. It will probably take some time to figure out”
I understand. Don’t tell Mrs. Beatrice Sinclair about this. Let’s discuss it after the operation”
Kevin nodded. “This is what Mr. Sinclair ordered before he was unconscious. Now his parents are abroad. Ms. Lewis, please take care of ham during this perad
11:52 AM
Angela was about to speak when her mobile phone in the bag rang.
The ringtone was so strange that it was impossible to tell what kind of instrument it was playing, but Angela’s expression changed upon hearing
that
She walked aside and then took out her mobile phone, seeing a message on the screen.
[Julic, one of those people we let go before is Quentin. He pretended to be a hatchet man and escaped. We have been exposed. Quentin’s people are now chasing me. They may find you soon. He careful]
The message disappeared soon.
Angela lowered her gaze as if thinking of something.
She put her phone into the bag and turned around to see Kevin looking at her with confusion.
“What’s wrong?”
Kevin said, “Ms. Lewis, your mobile phone ringtone is strange. I seem to have heard it somewhere.”
Angela’s expression changed slightly. “Where have you heard of it?”
This ringtone was specially made for the encryption software by a hacker in the mercenary
ry alliance. Only people in the alliance had this software on their mobile phones.
Kevin shook his head. “I forgot about it, but the ringtone was so strange
ge that I remembered that I had heard it before when I heard it just now”
Angela didn’t ask any more questions, and the two fell silent.
After a while. Kevin looked at her and said, “Ms. Lewis, the car Mr. Sinclair took in spontaneously ignised soon after it hit the bus. The other subordinates only had time to rescue the driver and Mr. Sinclair, so I guess the divorce agreement.
Angela had expected this result, nodded, and said, “Well, I’ll talk about this with Kenneth after he gets better.”
She had to investigate if this car accident had anything to do with Quentin. Before, she had heard that Quentin liked to torture his rivals rather than kill them directly.
Angela and Kevin waited for more than eight hours outside the operating room entrance before the lights inside were turned off.
When Kenneth was pushed out, the anesthesia was still in effect. He lay on the hospital bed with his eyes closed. His face was pale, completely different from his usual vigorous and resolute appearance.
The doctor, Colin Hoover, took off his mask. He looked a little solemn.
“Mr. Sinclair’s previously injured legs were hurt again in this car accident. He may never be able to stand up in the future. Please be mentally prepared”
Instantly, Angela’s face turned pale. She tried to calm down, saying, “I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Hoover.
Colin Hoover said, “Well, Mr. Sinclair has not passed the critical period yet. The next three days are critical, so I will arrange for two mirses to take turns to check his condition. You’d better arrange for someone to guard the ward door.”
Angela nodded. “Okay”
After Kenneth was sent to the ward, Kevin received a call from the manager of the company’s public relations department.
“Mr. Brown, there are rumors on the Internet that Mr. Sinclair was seriously injured in a car accident and was hospitalized. The Sinclair Group’s shares have also been affected. Can you contact Mr. Sinclair now!”
Kevin frowned, “Til go to the company right away
After hanging up, he looked at Angela with some embarrassment. Just as he was about to speak, Angela said. “You go
go and deal with the company affairs first. I’ll stay here. If anything happens, Til call you right away.
“Okay, please, Ms. Lewis.”
As soon as Kevin left, Angela immediately contacted a person on WhatsApp with a black profile and a blank name.
She sent a message: [Figure out who spread the news about Kenneth’s car accident.]
The other party replied: [Yes]
11:52 AM
Angela put away her phone and glanced at Kenneth, who was lying on the hospital bed wearing a ventilator, lost in thought. She hoped that the car accident had nothing to do with Quentin.
Soon, she received a message.
[I got the result. Quentin’s people spread this news.]
Angela’s expression suddenly became solemn. As she had expected, it was really related to Quentin.
She replied: [Okay. I see.]
The other party sent: [Don’t hesitate to contact me if you need assistance]
Angela didn’t reply, feeling a wave of irritation unconsciously. She should have eradicated Quentin at that time. Then, that incident wouldn’t happen.
In the end, Kenneth’s car accident was not concealed, and it was widely reported by major newspapers, which led to a slight drop in the share price of Sinclair Group.
After Beatrice learned the news, she fainted from anxiety. When she woke up, she hurried to the hospital.
Seeing Kenneth lying on the hospital bed, tears rolled down her face, and she was shaky.
Angela quickly supported her, “Grandma, don’t be too sad. Mr. Sinclair will get through the dangerous period safely.”
“Angie, if I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have forced him to divorce you toughly.”
