Dr. Jackson's assistant stopped talking when he sensed Rhett's attitude. He walked out of
the office.
After Luca received the well-copied documents from Mo Stone, she checked all the
documents once to ensure there were no errors. Then, she placed them all in her briefcase
and left the office.
Five minutes ago, Luca had already asked Warren to wait for her downstairs.
Warren opened the back door of the car when he saw Luca coming down.
After she got into the car, Warren sat back in the driver's seat and drove to T Corporation.
Meanwhile, Marcos and the others returned to the hotel and began to take action.
After Marcos received a phone call, he opened the door and went downstairs.
Ethan happened to be walking out of his room the moment Marcos opened the door.
Marcos raised an eyebrow when he saw Ethan come out. He found out that there were no
bugging devices or surveillance cameras inside the room with Kastov's equipment.
However, Ethan happened to open the door and come out of his room as soon as Marcos
stepped out. Were there really no bugging devices...
Marcos glanced at the entrance of the suite and immediately understood.
"Where are you going?" asked Ethan.
"Mr. Crawford asked me to attend a meeting at his company," replied Marcos.
Ethan frowned. "Why are there so many meetings? You're not up to something, are you?"
"Do you have any idea how complicated it is to have two companies work together? Mr.
Ethan, you're a lawyer. Do you even know how to handle collaborative projects?"
questioned Marcos.
Ethan did not understand these, indeed.
He gave him a suspicious look.
"Mr. Ethan, Mr. Matysh has made it clear that he doesn't need my help. I can't do anything
to help him with you watching me," Marcos reminded him. "What you need to do now is
clear his name. The whole family is counting on you."
After that, Marcos turned around and went downstairs.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis time, Kastov did not accompany him because he had other plans.
Ethan clenched his fist and glanced at the door of Marcos' suite. He gave a cold snort.
Then, he withdrew his gaze and returned to his suite.
Marcos did not need to send someone to watch over him. The one who did not trust him
was not Ethan but someone else in Russia!
Marcos went downstairs and headed straight to the hotel's parking lot.
Luke had arranged a chauffeur for him.
Marcos got into the car, and inside, Gale was sitting there.
"Hello, Mr. Marcos," Gale greeted him. He wore the exact same clothes as him.
"Thank you for your hard work," said Marcos. Luke had sent Gale to assist Marcos. Gale
even dyed his hair the same color and had the same haircut as him.
He would be another Marcos if one did not look at his face.
According to the plan, the chauffeur would drive to T Corporation and park at the
entrance. Gale would play his role and get out of the car at the entrance. Then, he would
enter T Corporation.
After that, the chauffeur would enter the parking lot and exit through another exit. He
would then take Marcos to the outskirts of A City.
"The truth is, I should be thanking you for giving me a break," Gale said with a smile on his
face.
Since he had to impersonate Marcos, all the remaining tasks were left to Rain to handle.
All he had to do was play the role of Marcos. After he entered T Corporation's building, he
would head to the reception room. Then, he would lay low and wait for Marcos' text. Upon
receiving it, he would pretend to get into the car and return to the hotel. He would be able
to leave after that.
It was such a simple task. It gave him a lot more free time too.
Besides, if he wore a wig and changed his clothes, it was alright for him to leave T
Corporation!
"Mr. Gale, there seems to be a car following behind us." The chauffeur noticed that a car
was tailing them.
"Don't worry about it. Keep driving," replied Gale. He had put on a cap when he got into
the car earlier. Even if a car was following them, those people would not discover their
plan.
Moreover, their car had tinted windows, making it quite difficult for others to take a look at
who was in the car.
Marcos, on the other hand, snorted coldly.
That Russian guy did not trust him indeed.
Not only did he send Ethan but also someone else...
However, Marcos had a few good friends in A City. How could that trash possibly track
him?
The car arrived at the entrance of T Corporation, and Gale handed Marcos the same cap.
"Mr. Marcos, put this on. It's new."
"Thank you," replied Marcos as he put on the cap.
Gale took off his cap, lowered his head a little, and pushed the car door open before
striding into T Corporation.
Those working at T Corporation would recognize him with just a glance. Hence, no one
stopped him.
Gale walked quickly to the elevator and faced away from the entrance. He pressed the
button.
At the same time, the chauffeur arrived at the underground parking lot and then left T
Corporation through another exit.
He sent Marcos all the way to the outskirts of A City.
"Mr. Marcos, Boss said that it might not be easy to find the right place at this time. I can't
drive into these narrow alleys, so I'll wait for you here. If you get tired, feel free to come
back and rest in the car. It'll be easier to find her at around five or six o'clock," explained
the chauffeur.
It was working hours now. Even though they were on the outskirts, most of the residents
here were office workers.
People were busy at work at this time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMoreover, Marcos' mother lived here alone. It was unlikely that she was unemployed. She
probably had a job too.
Luke believed that it would be highly improbable to find her here at this time.
The doors of every household were tightly closed during working hours. It would be
difficult for Marcos if he wanted to ask about a middle-aged foreign woman with ethnic
features.
After all, those who struggle to survive in A City would seek slightly cheaper rent
compared to the prices in the city center.
Most of the people here were migrants. They dealt with immense life pressures. Also, they
usually would not bring their elderly parents or children over.
As a result, the suburbs were even quieter than the city center during working hours.
Marcos nodded and replied, "Okay."
He pushed the car door open while wearing the cap given by Gale.
Marcos did not think that he would find his mother after one or two attempts.
If it were that easy, it would not have taken over a month for Luke's men to find this place.
Finding someone was never easy.
It was especially so when he was looking for someone who was believed to have passed
away over 20 years ago. ...
Luca arrived at the door of Luke's office with the documents in her hands. She knocked on
the door and only pushed it open after she heard Luke say, "Come in."
"Mr. Crawford, there are some documents that need your review." Luca pushed the door
open. She initially intended to have Jason deliver them, but no one was in the assistant's
office.
She went to check the secretary's office, but no one was there either.
With both the assistant's office and the secretary's office empty at the same time, Luca
could not help but wonder if the CEO's office was unoccupied too.
However, she thought it was unlikely since she had informed Luke earlier, so she knew
that he was in the office before coming here.
No one was there to help Luca deliver the documents to him. Hence, she had to do it
herself.
As she uttered those words, she realized that Gale was sitting on the sofa in Luke's office.
