Edward Ford contacted Roger Scott a few days later, he looked at Roger Scott who appeared in his field of vision, the bottom of his eyes could not ignore the astonishment, the movement of his glass also unconsciously shivered, “I really did not expect that the person who bought the Lees’ five percent of the shares was you. .”
Roger Scott slowly sat down in front of him, then couldn’t help but laugh, “I didn’t expect it to be you either.”
The two men looked at each other with a smile, followed by a mutual speculative glance, “What are you doing buying up the Brown Group when you’re minding your the Scott for good reason?”
“Edward ……”
Roger Scott leaned back and gave him a good long look, “You should know that the woman I loved most in my life died at the Brown, and was abandoned by the Brown.”
“I understand that, and it’s because I understand that I’m thinking of taking this out for you!”
Roger Scott froze and quickly reacted, thinking that if he really knew nothing about it, perhaps …… would really believe him on this, only unfortunately ……
Edward Ford finished, as if he didn’t find it too credible, and quickly ignored it with a smile, “It’s just that ……’s five percent of the shares won’t be of any use in your hands, so why not sell it to me and I’ll… …”
Roger Scott was not impressed, “How is it useless?”
Edward Ford frowned, “What, you’re interested in the Brown Group too?”
“No.”
“Then why are you still ……”
Roger Scott’s tapping on the sofa followed, “I’ve never married in my life and I haven’t left a single child, so I’ve always treated her children as if they were my own.”
“So, you’re trying to help Logan Brown?”
Roger Scott didn’t deny it, and Edward Ford immediately sank, “Roger, I’ve been friends with you for over ten years, and have treated each other more like confidants over the years.”
“We are friends, but I have to think of Logan Brown as my child. I bought the shares with the idea that I could help him one day, and you know better than anyone that he is not well liked at the Brown.
There was nothing wrong with what he said.
Edward Ford gritted his teeth, “But I’m also helping him now, there’s no place for him at the Brown and I’m being targeted at every turn, the reason I’m destroying the Brown Group is to help you, to help him and to help me!”
At those words, Roger Scott was instantly silent.
Edward Ford saw the movement on his face and then continued, “Roger, we’ve been friends for so many years, don’t you think I’d lie to you, the Brown’s people want my daughter for themselves too, I can’t swallow this!”
“Edward.”
Roger Scott took his hand and patted it, “I know what you’re thinking, but those are children’s business, and we’re getting old, so instead of thinking about that, we should be thinking about how we’re going to retire.”
“No way!” Edward Ford grimaced, “Elena is my only daughter and the only thing Joanna Lake has left me, and I will never give her up in this life!”
“But she’s married and about to have a child, why are you forcing her?”
He wondered what it was about Elena Bush and Logan Brown together that was holding him back, and even more so, why he was so insistent!
Edward Ford clenched his teeth and stared intently at his hands, “You’re not me, how can you understand?”
Roger Scott gave him a look and in the end sighed deeply, his face full of helplessness.
“Roger, after all that, all I want to know is, will you help, or won’t you help me?”
“You asked me to think it over, and I need to weigh both, so I can’t give you an answer right now.”
“Fine, then I’ll give you time!” Edward Ford stood up, “Roger, we’ve known each other for years and I know you’ve never let me down, and this time too.”
The latter didn’t reply, just lowered his eyes, wondering what he was thinking about.
Nor did Edward Ford bother to dictate to him again.
Everything that followed seemed to go exceptionally well, and Edward Ford soon left, leaving Roger Scott alone in the large box for an instant.
His eyes fell on the door, which was closed and untouched, before he fished out his phone and sent a message to Logan Brown.
Edward Ford strides out of the box and into the back seat, his gloomy gaze falling on his assistant, “Where’s Kent! No one’s been found yet?”
“No, I haven’t heard from him since he left, and I don’t know which direction he left in.”
“Damn!” Edward Ford let out a low curse.
The assistant burst into a cold sweat and said busily, “I’ll send extra men to look for him as soon as possible, I’m sure we’ll find someone in less than three days!”
“When is Elena’s due date?”
“Next month.”
Next month. ……
Edward Ford’s hand clenched into a silent fist, veins sprouting from his forehead, “Time is running out, contact Roger Scott’s side more often! And find out which one the Brown is planning to work with these days, I want to know all about it, and I want to see the results tomorrow morning!”
“Tomorrow, tomorrow?”
The assistant felt his scalp tingling, as if a huge burden had come down on him, leaving him at a loss for words.
As soon as the words left his mouth, a chilly gaze was instantly cast over, causing him to be splashed with cold water as cold as his bones from head to toe.
“I believe that there is always someone who can do what you can’t do, and do it better than you.”
Edward Ford’s words were devoid of any emotion and drove him straight to the edge.
The assistant’s head was almost buried in the ground as he thought about it and nodded, “Don’t worry, President Ford, I’ll find a way to get it all in front of you before you wake up tomorrow!”
“Better so!” Edward Ford snorted coldly, the threat in it couldn’t be clearer, “I don’t want you to talk the talk and not walk the walk!”
At the mention of this, Edward Ford couldn’t help but immediately think of Jacob.
He couldn’t even help but think that if his assistant had been Jacob instead, he wouldn’t have gotten any questions, and apparently Logan Brown was only doing so well because he had the best assistant in the business!
“Wait!”
He suddenly spoke up, and the assistant who hadn’t had time to breathe a sigh of relief lifted his heart once again.
“President Ford, is there anything else you want?” The assistant’s forehead was sweating and his words were unnaturally tense as he spoke.
Edward Ford gave him a cross look, “What? What have I done to make you so afraid of me?”
“No!” The assistant immediately denied, “It’s my problem, it has nothing to do with President Ford.”
Edward Ford looked at the man in front of him, and the more he looked at him, the more unpleasant he felt, and his tone sank, “Go and investigate Jacob for me, the more details you can!”
