Flynn stared at the disconnected phone for more than ten seconds, then quickly opened the QuickSound Short Videos to investigate.
“How could Molly see my likes?” Flynn was puzzled, unable to find a reason no matter how he thought about it.
He found Edwin Gallagher’s number and dialed it.
Edwin Gallagher was drinking tea when he saw it was Flynn calling. He jumped in surprise. The last time he called Flynn to go to Club Apex, Flynn scolded him mercilessly. He had been hiding at home these days and didn’t dare to go anywhere. When Flynn called, he almost scared him to death.
“B-Boss…” Edwin Gallagher stuttered.
The demon king couldn’t be that angry, right? It had been a few days, so he shouldn’t still be upset.
Even though he thought that way, Edwin Gallagher was still anxious.
He had no idea what he did to offend Flynn last time when he invited him to Club Apex. Did he do anything wrong?
“The last time…” Edwin Gallagher started.
“Forget about the last time!” Flynn interrupted directly and said indifferently, “Do you know QuickSound? Where can you see someone else’s likes?”
“Huh?” Edwin Gallagher was stunned.
Did he mean QuickSound Short Videos?
Where to see someone else’s likes?
What was going on?
He called just to ask this?
“You don’t know either? Then find someone who knows!” Flynn said with a serious face.
“Alright, alright! Just wait a moment!” Edwin Gallagher put his phone on the table and ran outside the villa, shouting loudly, “Gather everyone here!”
Bodyguards, servants, chefs, chauffeurs… more than twenty people ran over.
“How can you see someone else’s likes on QuickSound?”
Huh?
Everyone was confused.
He urgently gathered everyone just to ask this question?
They were scared.
They thought something big had happened!
“You’re all idiots! Speak up!” Edwin Gallagher anxiously sweated.
“Mr. Gallagher, I’m not really sure, but don’t worry. I’ll call my sister and ask.”
“I don’t play QuickSound much, but my son should know. I’ll call him now.”
“My wife is in e-commerce. She should know…”
All twenty-plus people started making phone calls, causing chaos in the entire yard.
“What? You don’t know either? Ask someone for me! Right now! Hurry up!”
“You’re in a meeting and can’t take calls? Cancel the meeting immediately and figure this out for me now!”
“You’re busy with your livestream? If you don’t figure this out right now, I’ll come back and break your legs!”
After some commotion, everyone finally came to a conclusion-without using special methods, they couldn’t see someone else’s likes at all.
“So what you’re saying is that Rose fooled me again? Is she trying to trick me?” Flynn’s face darkened, annoyed.
“I knew it! When I like a beautiful female influencer’s post, only heaven knows, my phone knows, and Faith McCarthy from the Edge knows… but no one else knows!”
Flynn’s expression turned even darker as he became more frustrated.
“Uh…” Edwin Gallagher almost choked.
He thought it was something big. It turned out it was just a joke between Rose and Mr. Clark…
“Alright, I’ll hang up.” Flynn was about to hang up the phone when Edwin Gallagher quickly said, “Boss, I have one more thing to tell you. I’m not sure if I should say it or not.”
“Speak!” Flynn impatiently said.
“Mr. Clark, someone from the Clark family will be coming to Niarak soon.”
“Paxton Clark?” Flynn’s gaze turned cold.
Edwin Gallagher said, “No, it’s Paxton Clark’s nephew, Ignatius Clark.”
“Ignatius Clark?” Flynn narrowed his eyes.
Callie had mentioned that after he went to prison, Ignatius Clark came to Niarak and even fought Matteo Kaur.
“That’s right. His company has a collaboration with a local enterprise in Niarak. I found out about this while having dinner with the owner of that company yesterday,” Edwin Gallagher explained.
“He said he was here to handle some personal matters.”
Anything related to Flynn was a big deal.
Edwin Gallagher felt it necessary to inform him.
“I see.” Flynn hung up the phone and stood by the bedroom window with a chilling look in his eyes…
Phoenix Blossom Mountain, Niarak.
Inside a luxurious villa.
Lilia Hussain paced back and forth with a glass of wine in her hand, her face serious.
Too many things happened in Niarak today.
Stellan Wallace’s death didn’t concern her much. However, Takada Kazuo’s death had a huge impact on her.
He was her biggest investor.
After hearing the news, she quickly called Layla Woods to inquire about the details. But before she could ask about Takada Kazuo’s situation, the Watson family called her instead.
Layla Woods immediately went to Pelens upon hearing the news about Maisie and Stellan Wallace. This delayed their conversation about Takada Kazuo.
During dinner, Lilia Hussain made a phone call pretending to ask about Maisie’s condition while subtly asking when Layla Woods would return.
She had two main reasons for her inquiry-first, to ask about Takada Kazuo, and second, to prepare for the showdown with the Sharp’s Group for the top pharmaceutical company in Niarak.
Losing Layla Woods would be a significant setback.
Just as she was feeling anxious about it, Layla Woods walked into the room.
“Layla Woods, how is Maisie? Did you save her?” Lilia Hussain quickly poured a glass of red wine for Layla Woods and pretended to care.
Layla Woods sat on the sofa with a tired expression. “She can eat in three days but will never be able to sit up again.”
“She can only lie in bed and needs assistance for everything.”
Maisie was severely injured. Even with Layla Woods’ ancient formula and the head of the Jenkins family’s support, Maisie couldn’t fully recover.
“Lord Valerian Nox is too ruthless. How could he lay such heavy hands on a little girl?” Lilia Hussain shook her head with regret. She had heard that Jenkins family cherished Maisie very much. Knowing this news would surely enrage them.
Layla Woods remained silent. She wasn’t one to gossip and felt that discussing these matters served no purpose. However, there was a hint of shock in her eyes for a brief moment.
While preparing medicine for Maisie earlier, Layla Woods heard from members of the Watson family that when the head of the Jenkins family learned that his granddaughter had become vegetative, he destroyed mountains instantly-such destructive power could only be described as horrifying.
Lord Valerian Nox would probably meet his end in three days’ time.
“Layla Woods, what happened with Takada Kazuo? He was accused of stealing formulas?” Lilia Hussain couldn’t help but ask.
Layla Woods nodded. “Bartholomew Quinn confessed. There is solid evidence. According to official reports, Takada Kazuo died resisting arrest.”
“Please don’t spread it around.”
Since the authorities were willing to vouch for Flynn publicly, Layla Woods naturally couldn’t contradict them publicly either.
“Oh… okay. Don’t worry. I won’t say anything,” Lilia Hussain answered with some avoidance in her eyes as she hurriedly promised.
Layla Woods was too tired after going back and forth between Pelens all day-treating Maisie took a lot of energy-and didn’t notice Lilia Hussain’s expression.
She took a sip of wine and hesitated for a while before speaking up again, “Lilia Hussain, having Takada Kazuo invest was my mistake.”
“After this business battle is over, return Komatsu Conglomerate’s money and dividends immediately.”
“I don’t want you to have any further contact with Komatsu Conglomerate. Do you understand?”
Lilia Hussain froze for a moment but forced a smile in response.
Layla Woods frowned slightly. She could feel that Lilia Hussain’s smile looked forced and her eyes seemed complicated-almost as if she were avoiding something.
But Layla Woods didn’t think too much about it. She just wanted to go back and rest as soon as possible.
“I’m going back now. Tomorrow, I’ll help you secure the title of Niarak’s top pharmaceutical company.”
“Flynn was very rude today. If Reginald Shaw hadn’t come over, I would have broken his arm.”
“Tomorrow… I’ll make sure he will make a fool of himself!”
Leaving behind these words, Layla Woods turned around and left.
