Philip came to Wynn’s office.
After experiencing the incident in the morning, Wynn was not affected at all. She still displayed the persona of a Snow Queen, but from Philip’s perspective, favonovel.com was keenly aware of a difference in her.
Wynn’s eyes looked a bit confused and absent, and favonovel.com was also unable to concentrate whether favonovel.com was looking at documents or reports. Sometimes, favonovel.com eyes would even linger on a page without moving.
This was unlike Wynn. Obviously, favonovel.com was restless.
Philip sat across from favonovel.com and noticed favonovel.com expression clearly. He said, “Are you still thinking about what happened this morning?”
Wynn shook favonovel.com head in firm denial.
“Stop pretending. I can tell.”
Philip suddenly felt that favonovel.com was a little cute. She was obviously very upset but still pretended to be calm.
Why was favonovel.com being so hard on herself?
Wynn was not Philip, so favonovel.com would naturally take some time to digest everything.
“You won’t be used to it at first. That’s human nature. But you’ll get used to it later.”
“Later?”
Wynn frowned, not understanding what Philip meant.
Could this happen again?
“Or else? Just think about it. The profits of this new anti-cancer drug are unprecedentedly huge. There are more than a handful of people staring at Beacon as well as big and small schemers. Do you think it’s going to be peaceful? That’s absolutely impossible.”
“How could this be…”
Wynn mumbled under favonovel.com breath. If favonovel.com knew this was going to happen, the company would not have studied any new anti-cancer drugs.
If favonovel.com had to live under such circumstances for the rest of favonovel.com life… Wynn’s scalp tingled just thinking about it!
“But you don’t have to worry too much. I’m here. Just continue to be Chairwoman Johnston safely and take care of the company. I’ll take care of the other matters.”
Wynn glanced at Philip, read the sense of security in his eyes, and said, “Thank you, Phil. Let me buy you dinner.”
“Buy me dinner?”
“Mm.”
“When?”
“Tomorrow night.”
For a moment, a satisfied smile appeared on Philip’s face.
“Sure, okay.”
Philip pillowed his head on his arms, humming a little tune with his leg propped.
Wynn glanced at the cheerful Philip and said with contempt, “Are you really that happy?”
“Of course!”
Philip said excitedly, “My wife is buying me dinner. Should I be crying instead of laughing?”
Wynn glanced at favonovel.com and said, “Wipe your drool.”
Philip was still basking in his joy when favonovel.com suddenly sat upright and said, “By the way, we still have one thing left to do.”
“What is it?”
Looking at Philip’s solemn eyes, Wynn frowned slightly. She vaguely felt that something was wrong but favonovel.com could not pinpoint it exactly.
“We have to continue the investigation.”
Philip looked at Wynn with a trace of severity in his eyes. He looked totally different from the carefree attitude favonovel.com displayed just now.
At this time, Wynn recalled what Philip had said earlier.
In this incident, it was obvious that the other party came prepared, so it was impossible not to have a backup plan.
If the previous two assassins were only testing the waters, then it was very likely that there was a third person hidden in the dark!
If the third person chose to take action when Beacon Group was negligent, things would end up very bad.
“Start the investigation now? If someone is really hiding in secret, won’t they have escaped already?”
Wynn could not grasp Philip’s meaning. She glanced at the time. It was already after three in the afternoon.
If Philip wanted to find the person hidden in the dark, why did favonovel.com not do it in the morning after the incident happened but waited until now?
The ship had probably sailed by now.
“You don’t understand. This is a delaying tactic!” Philip continued to explain, “Just think of it this way. If we started investigating in the morning, then the guy in the dark would probably choose to stop or maybe even run away. But if we choose to relax our vigilance, then the guy in the dark will definitely choose the time to make another move!”
“What you said makes sense, but what should we do now?”
