“President Ford.” The assistant spoke in a whisper, pulling Edward Ford’s thoughts back, “What?”
“No, I just wanted to ask, what should I do with this agreement?” The assistant spoke with trepidation, his eyes not daring to fall on Edward Ford’s body.
At this, the latter’s face went cold, “Do you need me to tell you how to do this, are you too stupid or too useless?”
“I ……” the assistant lowered his head guiltily, looking a little pitiful.
Edward Ford swept him away, and the contempt at the bottom of his eyes couldn’t help but deepen a few more points, “Leave this to the lawyer, he’ll take care of it, and ……”
“President Ford you say.”
“Is there any news from Jacob’s side in the next few days?”
The assistant was stunned, then shook his head and said honestly, “No, he’s the only senior person in KL right now, so I’m afraid he won’t give us any answers either.”
“Rubbish!” Edward Ford snarled, “Couldn’t I have given him a better deal?”
Edward Ford’s intentions were a little unclear, “President Ford, didn’t you already promise Miss Elena that you wouldn’t take action against KL, or the Brown Group? Why are you still trying to bring Jacob to our side in every way possible?”
At those words, a serious gaze was immediately directed at him.
Edward Ford clenched his palms and said coldly, “I said I would return H City to a clean slate, but I didn’t promise that I couldn’t poach the talent I wanted!”
“But ……” the assistant had a hesitant look on his face, “Jacob, with that look, is obviously loyal to Logan Brown and would never say yes easily.”
“The more people like that the more I need! Unlike you ……”
Edward Ford skewered him, “Arm-twisting, all that talk and all that work, and still the same useless!”
The assistant couldn’t help but bow his head in shame at his snide remark.
Edward Ford looked at his face and said, “Forget it, go and take care of the company’s business!
“Yes!”
The assistant woke up and remembered that there were more important matters at hand and quickly took the agreement and left the office.
Edward Ford looked at the reckless way he left and became angry again.
Inside the hotel where Logan Brown was staying
Back at the hotel, Jacob followed Logan Brown’s lead and entered the hotel room, a document in his hand.
“Sir.”
The man’s tall body was sunk deep into the sofa and only slowly opened his eyes at the sound of movement, “Weren’t you told to stay in H City? Or does …… H City have something important to do?”
Jacob nodded and shook his head again.
Logan Brown’s cold eyes narrowed slightly, “What’s going on, just say it.”
“I found out this morning that Mr Scott had gone to the cottage and asked Mia for the key to the master bedroom afterwards, and only after checking did I find out that Madame’s account had now been moved to Mr Scott’s, and that …… Madame had also changed her surname to Scott. ”
The man’s pupils shuddered and he looked at him sharply.
Jacob lowered his eyes and continued, “And on the account, the relationship between the two is that of father and daughter …… I guessed that the gentleman was probably unaware of this matter, so I took it upon myself to book a flight and rush over.”
Said, handing him the document in his hand together, “I have confirmed with Mr. Scott afterwards, he also arranged a lawyer for madam, according to the lawyer, madam contacted him because she wanted to know whether the agreement signed with the wrong name would be effective.”
Hearing this, Logan Brown understood everything at once!
Elena Bush had been threatened and signed, but she was still working on her own to deny the divorce papers and to find a way to keep Edward Ford from noticing the difference.
The thought of that slender back came to mind, and his heart nearly choked him.
The room suddenly became quiet and Jacob dared not make a sound to disturb Logan Brown’s state of mind at the moment ……
For a long time ……
Logan Brown opened his eyes slowly, “Uncle Roger is probably worried, reassure him and say thank you to him for me ……”
“Yes.” Jacob nodded, looking at his haggard appearance with some concern, “the Ford Group partnership has been signed today, there’s also a big mess within the Ford Group right now, the stock market will have to fluctuate for a few days at least to regain stability.”
Logan Brown nodded slightly, unable to say whether he felt happy or sad at the moment.
What he hated more than anything was that Edward Ford had the woman he loved most in his hands, and he couldn’t do anything about it!
“What’s happening with the Brown Group’s new signings?” He asked slowly, leaning back on the sofa with his eyes tightly closed.
“Everything’s going well, the previous signings tried to protest, but they were all silenced by the old man, so no one is causing any trouble, and the Brown Group executives have all acquiesced to the changes.”
Logan Brown had already guessed that this would be the case, with a betrayed manufacturer and a new one with no problems, he thought that no one would want to trust someone who had betrayed them.
“That’s fine.” He hooked his lips, subdued and calm.
Jacob looked at him for a moment before saying, “You shouldn’t have had a proper rest yet, sir, go and get some rest first, I’ll get you up when it’s later.”
“No.” Logan Brown propped himself up and shook his head, “I’m going to go to the Ford.”
“The Ford!?”
Jacob looked surprised, “I had someone look into it when I got here, the Ford is on tighter security now, so it’s going to be hard to get in and out.”
Logan Brown grimaced, “There she is, I’m not going to leave her alone waiting for me.”
After all she had done, was he left to attack The Ford Group from the outside to get Edward Ford to compromise?
If so, then this was destined to be a protracted battle and he couldn’t wait, nor could his child!
“Sir!” Jacob stopped him just in time, saying nothing would allow him to go.
Logan Brown looked at him coldly, “How dare you stop me?”
“I’m just not willing to put sir at risk, sir, should you remember what happened to Mr Lewis, not to mention that you are now Edward Ford’s enemy, and if you are caught by him, you will only ……”
“So you want me to do nothing!?” He snarled, a cold chill surrounding him.
Jacob suddenly fell silent and didn’t answer.
Logan Brown sat back on the couch in exasperation, his eyes cold and frightening.
Jacob stood aside, not speaking for a long time, and only after half a second did the man who had been silent for a long time lightly open his thin lips again, “Go and check out the Ford’s personal doctor, I want to know where he lives in the shortest possible time!”
