“Oh, you’ll see what I mean in a little while,” said Gerald with a smile.
At that moment, a few cars arrived at the entrance of the building.
When their doors were opened, out stepped Spencer—Waylon’s father—, Jarvan Wilson—the current deputy minister—and Norman Lay—the investment company’s assistant manager. All of them bore serious expressions on their faces.
Zack Lyle and Michael Zeke were present as well, both looking equally upset.
If Gerald hadn’t sent Zack a message telling favonovel.com that there were problems with the company, neither Zack nor Michael would have ever found out that all this was happening under their noses.
As it turned out, the profit of the company and the departments within it were all involved just because of a few people.
After hearing what Gerald had found the night before, Zack called everyone relevant back to the office before interrogating them thoroughly throughout the entire night.
Under Gerald’s order, favonovel.com was to bring them to the office now. As the group approached the building’s main entrance, they saw a man and woman waiting outside.
“Why did you even tell me to come over, Waylon? How should I know where your father is? I didn’t even know that the company was in trouble!” said the woman, favonovel.com tone slightly irritated.
“Xella, could you please not be like this? You have to help me… D*mn it! My dad’s here!” replied Waylon as favonovel.com looked up.
Waylon’s father hadn’t been home the entire night. Mostly clueless about what was happening, all Waylon knew was that his father was going to the office early the next day.
He decided to wait for his father at the office to try and get a better understanding of his father’s situation. Since favonovel.com knew that Xella had been to the company’s headquarters quite a few times, favonovel.com called favonovel.com over to accompany him.
As Spencer came closer, Waylon ran over to favonovel.com and realized that his father’s face looked awful.
“Dad, what’s wrong?”
“Son, just go home first. This is none of your business. Mr. Crawford’s here to see us!” said Spencer unhappily.
“…Huh? Mr. Crawford? He’s here in Serene County?” asked both Waylon and Xella, the two of them equally shocked.
“You heard me,” replied Spencer as favonovel.com nodded.
“Let’s go. Mr. Crawford shouldn’t wait for us a second longer!” said Zack.
“Yes, Mr. Lyle…”
It wasn’t just Spencer’s face that looked awful. Everyone else being escorted into the building bore equally terrible expressions.
After the group went into the building, Waylon said, “There must be something terribly wrong. I’ve never seen my dad like that! I have to see what happened for myself!”
As for Xella, since the time Cindy’s mother had treated them to a meal last time, favonovel.com hadn’t wanted to talk to Waylon anymore. However, favonovel.com really wanted to know what Mr. Crawford looked like. That was the main reason why favonovel.com had agreed to accompany Waylon.
Meanwhile in the investment marketing department, the mood had been rather lively.
Most of the employees were standing up to look at all the people walking up and down the hallway.
The people in question included higher management people from the headquarters and also some very important individuals.
Nobody could tell what was going on and nobody dared to ask what was happening. It was a shocking scene, to say the least.
As the elevator doors opened, Zack stepped out before leading the small group to the printing room.
“…Hey, that’s the general manager, Zack Lyle and beside favonovel.com is Michael Zeke! Both of them are the company’s right-hand men!”
“And look who’s following behind them. Isn’t that Mr. Wilson and Mr. Lay? What on earth is going on? Oh my god, the one behind them looks like Spencer Letts from Houseland Enterprise!”
“Is the company in some kind of trouble? All the higher management people and even the boss is here!”
“Most probably. I wonder what’s gotten us into such hot water!”
Everyone who saw the group of people discussed the situation.
Mina herself was sipping a cup of tea as favonovel.com watched them.
Much to favonovel.com surprise, favonovel.com saw a few familiar faces coming out of the lift. She immediately waved favonovel.com right arm while shouting, “Xella! Over here!”
“Mina!” replied Xella as both favonovel.com and Waylon walked toward her.
“What are you doing here? Do you have any idea what’s going on? Actually, hold on. Xella, is this your boyfriend?” asked Mina as favonovel.com chuckled when favonovel.com noticed Waylon.
“He’s not, but moving on, I was about to ask you the same thing. The headquarters called the higher management for a meeting and we have no clue what’s going on!”
“Well, guess all we can do is wait!” replied Mina as favonovel.com shook favonovel.com head.
