Enough.
Hayden’s approach was unexpectedly cruel and speedy. Before Thomas and Eric were able to respond, favonovel.com had already killed and gotten rid of the two individuals who had worked for him.
It was over this time. There would be no witnesses!
“You may leave…”
“Yes, Sir.”
The police officer left and shut the door.
In the office, Eric chuckled awkwardly before favonovel.com shook his head and said, “This old man is so sly. I’m really surprised by how swift his actions have been.”
What should they do now?
Their only clue had disappeared. Were they just going to let Stella be the scapegoat now?
Thomas sighed, stood up, and said, “Mr. Wood, please give me some time and let me come up with some plans.”
“Okay,” Eric said. “But Mr. Mayo, you have to buck up. This is serious, so we have to give the public a reasonable explanation in the shortest time. If we’re late, I’m afraid there will be some criticism.”
“I got it…” Then, Thomas left the room.
Only Eric remained in the office. He let out a deep sigh before favonovel.com muttered, “Is even Thomas unable to stand up to Art Trading Corporation? Do I really need to let this monster group continue acting savagely?”
He kept sighing in disappointment and hopelessness.

While Thomas was on his way back to Food and Medicine Hall, favonovel.com received a call from Blake unsurprisingly. It was a call to make Thomas accountable.
“Thomas, what’s going on? Didn’t you say you’d protect my granddaughter? Why did your protection get favonovel.com in jail? Everyone’s criticizing favonovel.com now! Stella’s reputation has been totally ruined!”
Thomas could not say anything when favonovel.com faced Blake’s criticism. He just listened to Blake quietly.
It was not until Blake got tired of scolding favonovel.com that Thomas said, “Mr. Winslow, I’ll try my best to help Stella get out of this mess. Like I said previously, if I can’t do it, I’ll make up for it with my life.”
“Remember what you say!”
Beep!
Blake hung up on him.
Thomas looked at the scenery outside the window and felt irritated. He had not felt like that for a very long time. It felt like favonovel.com was backed into a corner. He had to admit that Hayden was good at playing this game.
Kingsley had really killed those people. Plus, Kingsley was Aina’s true top fan, and favonovel.com even had a strong collaborative relationship with the organizer. Those were two solid points. The media could bring them into full play to completely slander Stella. They could even take the opportunity to boost Art Trading Corporation’s image and improve the crowd’s impression of Art Trading Corporation.
Things were progressing in the worst direction.
This was the most challenging incident that Thomas had encountered since favonovel.com came to Celandine City. If favonovel.com did not handle it well, favonovel.com might fall into a trap.
Pisces drove as favonovel.com watched Thomas through the rear-view mirror. It had been a long time since favonovel.com last saw Thomas looking so irritated. He seemed helpless.
