Baby, I Found for You an Awesome Daddy

Chapter 394 Emerson Corporation’s Conspiracy



Charlotte stared blankly for two seconds, then lowered her head and tried her best not to look in Shane’s direction. She was trying to convince herself that this had nothing to do with her.

“What’s the matter?” Shane picked up the phone. Whatever he heard made his face darken instantly. “No matter what you do, I want to see results within an hour.”

On the other side, Jackson replied with a wry smile, “Mr. Fuller, it’s not that I refuse to follow him, but there’s simply no other way for me to do so. That man named Christopher is too cunning. He sent my address and information to my enemy. You know that I only care about Josephine in my life. Let’s not mention how much she has done for you. I just want to keep her alive.”

When Josephine was mentioned, Shane’s eyes darkened. “Protecting Josephine and completing your assignment are both your responsibilities.”

“Mr. Fuller, I can only try my best.”

The sound of the call disconnecting was his only reply.

Shane had hung up.

Charlotte pretended to ask casually, “Who is that guy? I saw the caller ID. I wasn’t aware that you knew someone named Jackson.”

“I hired him to track Christopher. His people are crafty, so I needed someone seasoned.”

“I see.” Charlotte smiled. Of course, she chose to believe Shane. Or rather, she had no choice.

Why would a person who should have been tailing Christopher appear in her vicinity? Was Christopher nearby that day? Suspicion bloomed in Charlotte’s mind, but she had no proof and could only remain silent.

As soon as Charlotte returned home after work, she received a message from Luciano. Although they had only worked together once, seeing as she and Rick gave him capital, Luciano had become their pawn in Airline Union. His message this time was simple-Emerson Corporation was looking for someone to acquire shares, and they were about to go bankrupt.

Charlotte had been expecting to hear this, but it still took her by surprise. She knew that it was only a matter of time before Emerson Corporation went bankrupt. Countless people, including investors, were circling them covetously.

However, she didn’t expect Emerson Corporation to take a nosedive so quickly.

“Can you come forward to buy shares?” Charlotte asked.

“Of course. However, if I step forward now, would they be suspicious? After all, I was on the verge of bankruptcy earlier.”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“It doesn’t matter. The money was funneled from an offshore account that belongs to Jane Corporation. They will not notice that you are on our side.”

“If someone asks, how should I answer?”

“You could say that you have a distant relative who went abroad in his early years and worked hard all his life. But before he passed, he realized he was all alone, so he decided to leave a large sum of money to you.” This cover story was not fabricated by Charlotte. She had discussed it with Avery and Rick for a long time before settling on this narrative.

On one hand, no one would find out. On the other hand, there were many people with similar experiences in this world.

Only after a lifetime did he realize that he was born with nothing and would die with nothing, thus he entrusted his wealth to an irrelevant person before kicking the bucket.

Luciano thought this was a good idea. He gave a thumbs-up to Charlotte.

Charlotte smiled but did not reply.

The next day.

The situation at Emerson Corporation suddenly improved. Luciano sent a message saying there was no need for the story.

Charlotte was suspicious, so she immediately ordered Peter to investigate.

Christopher came into some money unexpectedly, but the source was unknown. He couldn’t find the original investor at all. Simply put, it was very likely that this money was stolen. Even if the money was acquired legitimately, it might have belonged to a bad person.

“And they also bought the brokerage company which Cassius invested in. I think they are going to wipe him out. I heard that there is a man around Christopher who knows the agent of the artist who hurt Cassius. This artist is disgusting.” Peter was wearing a headset, and the click-clack sounds of his fingers flying across the keyboard could be heard.

Charlotte was just about to head to Cassius’s villa. Last night, he sent her a message informing that he was injured. She was going to visit him today. Wearing a Bluetooth headset, she was on her laptop, and the fatigue between her eyebrows was obvious. “Have they found out about Luciano?”

“No, they released the news that they went bankrupt this time. It seems like they were trying to smoke out the people you’re hiding, but they didn’t obtain anything,” Peter answered.

“That’s good.”

“About Cassius, do we still follow the plan? We’re practically in a direct confrontation with him in the entertainment circle.”

“Of course we have to continue. I won’t stop until one of us goes down.”

Charlotte was shocked at the vehemence of her words. Cassius was a very important pawn to her. She would not allow anyone to trample on him easily, let alone Elaine.

Peter, too, did not expect that. On top of being surprised, he sighed with emotion. “I didn’t think there would be a day when Miss Charlotte would be so courageous. Well, I will find a way to solve it as soon as possible. It’s about nine o’clock in the evening. They should not be able to speak, but they still need Avery’s help. I can’t make a big difference by myself.”

“Avery will always leave eventually.”

Peter was stunned. “Ms. Emerson, what do you mean?”

“After he deals with Stevens Family, he will leave. We all knew this.”

Peter sighed and was at a loss for words.

It saddened him to accept the truth.

Charlotte arrived at the villa and was led to Cassius’s room by a private doctor. Cassius had begun his livestream. He put on makeup and tried to appear as lively as possible, but he still looked exhausted and sickly.

Charlotte initially wanted to comment that he was rocking his slightly haggard look. But she found that he was still sluggish despite trying his best to put up a cheerful front. His fans should be able to tell that something was amiss.

On the contrary, this effect was better than his dispirited manner.

When Cassius heard a sound, he turned around and saw that it was Charlotte. He immediately stood up and greeted, “Miss Charlotte.”

“How is it going?”

“Thank you very much for saving me. I’m fine now, everything can go on as planned.”

“Tell me what’s going on.”

Charlotte’s attitude was cold.

Cassius was indeed injured, but when he thought of his state yesterday and the fact that she had come all the way here to visit him twice, he did not have any complaints. He even felt that she was bothered because he did not protect himself.

Cassius whispered, “Let’s start from yesterday afternoon.”

In the afternoon, he had nothing to eat at home, so he went to the supermarket to get some groceries.

When he was about to pay the bill, he met his friend and started chatting. Someone knocked on his door just after he got home. He was already tired after going to the supermarket, so he opened the door without thinking and found that it was Zayn’s agent, Zachariah.

Zachariah was known for being ruthless and vicious in the industry. He could do anything.

“He threatened me that if I didn’t quit my career, everyone in the industry would know what kind of person I am.” Cassius shook his head with a wry smile and continued, “But what can I do?”

To accede? That’s impossible.

To reject? He didn’t have the guts.

Therefore. ..
