Elly Campbell, if you disappear without a word again like you did four years ago, even if it means destroying the Clark Family and the Campbell Family, I will find you.
The expression on Adam Jones’s face was terrifyingly cold. The memory of her sudden disappearance four years ago, which had left him searching the world in vain, was now relentlessly assaulting his brain and heart.
He was scared, truly scared that what happened four years ago might happen again, and this time, he feared he might never find Elly Campbell in his lifetime.
This fear had never been so clear to him as it was at this moment.
After standing in front of the hospital building for a long time, Adam managed to calm the panic in his heart, and walked towards the parking lot.
Upon getting in the car, Robert Green was still tapping away on the computer keyboard. When he saw Adam approaching, he greeted him with a nod and continued typing.
Adam, who had just closed his eyes, suddenly opened them and looked towards Robert.
"Madam went to Alaska.
Adam frowned almost imperceptibly, "What did she go to Alaska for?"
After learning of Elly Campbell’s whereabouts, Adam let out a breath of relief without a change in expression.
"Madam took over Brayman Enterprise."
Adam was aware of Brayman Building Material Industry and knew it was the company of Elly’s maternal grandfather, Mason Clark. However, the company was managed by an externally hired CEO, with Mason Clark hardly involving himself in its affairs.
Although small, the company had made quite a name for itself, as it had developed several types of building materials in recent years that were held to high standards in health, environmental protection, and construction usability. It holds numerous patents and is popular among developers and homeowners, being a company with great potential.
The reason for its small scale was only due to a lack of funds to support such technology development. They had invested most of their financial resources in research and development, hence the production scale was limited.
But with the research technology of the company, its growth was only a matter of time.
Adam had taken notice of this company and had even sent people to invest in it. Brayman Enterprise was currently in need of operational funds, and an injection of capital from Jones would have been a significant boost. He hadn’t expected Brayman to flatly refuse.
If they refused, Adam certainly wasn’t going to be obsequious. Although he saw potential, it didn’t mean it was indispensable for him.
Unexpectedly, Elly had resigned from the hospital this time and accepted Brayman’s offer.
Adam leaned back in his seat, tapping his fingers on his thigh pensively, his thoughts unknown.
"Stop the investigation into Elly that I asked you to do," he said.
Robert looked at his boss in surprise. Was the CEO turning over a new leaf?
He had been insistent on finding out who the "other man" was outside of marriage.
Robert had been worried that the CEO was straying further and further from the path of reconciliation, and now, out of the blue, he had decided to stop the investigation.
What a timely withdrawal.
"Yes, CEO," Robert replied, relieved.
He couldn’t be more pleased.
The CEO had tasked him with finding out about the other man Madam might be seeing, and he had been unable to find any leads, worried that the CEO might blame him for incompetence. Now, the CEO himself had suggested dropping the matter, which was perfect.
Robert secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Adam didn’t concern himself with what Robert might be thinking; at this moment, he had his own considerations to make.
Since Elly had taken over Brayman Enterprise, at least for the short term, she wouldn’t be leaving, which was good.
Something crossed his mind, and Adam suddenly chuckled to himself.
Robert, seeing his boss laugh inexplicably, especially noticing the indulgence spilling over in those usually cold and merciless eyes, shivered involuntarily.
