Henry immediately replied, “Yes!” Asking someone out was a piece of cake for him. He immediately checked the number of Yechiel’s executive assistant Ethan and made a call. Henry wasn’t able to ask him out with his identity. Thus he revealed another identity. “Hello, Mr. Trevor. i’m Damon, the CEO of East Arising International Group. Are you free to come out for a cup of coffee?” When the person on the other end heard “East Arising International Group”, he got completely carried away. “Yes, yes. It’s my honor to have coffee with you. I’ll book a place now.” “Moon Island Coffee!” Henry said. Ethan agreed readily. “Alright, alright. I’ll be there soon.” “Okay.” Henry hung up.
He looked at Annalise and blinked his charming eyes as if he was asking for credit. “Annalise, it’s done.” Herman was stunned around them. He was awed when hearing the words “East Arising International Group”. East Arising International Group was one of the top 50 companies in the world. Its performance doubled annually, with last year’s annual report fanking 38th in the world group with 214.7 billion dollars. Herman did not know if the young man in front of him was really the CEO of East Arising International Group or if he was using such a way to trick Ethan out.
He had a feeling that it was impossible for such a young person to be the executive president of such a huge corporation, but what the young man had done just now almost convinced him: This was because when Henry was on the phone just now, the aura around him made him king-like. He behaved in a majestic manner with no diffidence at all. Herman put this doubt behind his back as the case should be solved quickly, and the Medicine Directorate had to come to a conclusion. The group rushed to Moon Island Coffee.
Henry chose to set the place in Moon Island Coffee after considering Annalise’s condition. It was only a 20-minute drive from the current bus station. Even so, Annalise’s face was still pale in the car. Once she got out of the car, Annalise turned her back and retched. Henry asked anxiously, “Annalise, how are you? Are you feeling very uncomfortable? What do you need to eat to make you feel better?”
Trevor had rushed straight into the Moon Island Coffee Club. After a while, he came out with some food in his hand. There were peaches, nuts, spicy sticks…
He said in a calm voice, “Annalise, look, which one of these can help? You can eat whatever you want.” Annalise was touched. She took a bite on the peach. It was sour and salty. However, it could indeed suppress the discomfort in her stomach. Annalise said with a smile despite the comfort, “It’s fine. I usually get car sick. Let’s go in and wait.” Trevor supported Annalise with one hand. Henry looked at Trevor with a strange gaze, as if he had discovered some big news. “This guy is usually cold and indifferent to everyone, especially women. He’s really too concerned about Annalise, Could it be that he has a crush on her?
“Damn, it’s better not to be the case!” thought Henry. After they entered the clubhouse, Ethan had yet to arrive. The Xander Group was at least 50 minutes away. Henry immediately told Annalise to take a break. He then asked the waiter to prepare plain water and fruit platters and coffee for Herman and the others. Reaching out to grab Trevor’s arm, Henry lowered his voice and said, “Come out for a moment.” Trevor followed him out, assuming that they were discussing something important. “You like Annalise?” Henry asked seriously. “Yes,” Trevor replied.
Upon hearing this, Henry’s face distorted wretchedly. His expression was indescribably vexed, angry as he said with a hint of accusation in his voice, “Damn, you… You actually like Annalise. She’s Julian’s woman! We’ve always been by his side, but you covert his woman! Julian is always worried Annalise will be coveted by another man, but in the end, you…” Trevor was speechless. His face darkened and he said, “Is there something wrong with your brain? Do you know what you’re talking about?” “Didn’t you say that you like Annalise?” Henry was stunned. Trevor said in a low voice, “You don’t like her? I mean I just like her as a friend. I admire her character and how she handles things. I think she’s a good match for Julian. I respect her from the bottom of my heart.”
“Fu**k, you should have said so earlier. You scared the hell out of me,” said Henry, covering his chest. Trevor rolled his eyes at Henry and turned to enter the club. He stopped in his tracks and said, “Be
helpful. Don’t let Annalise do everything.” Henry said, “No, you’re just talking about me. What about you?” “I’m in charge of finding people and protecting her. You’re in charge of the specific matters,” said Trevor. Then he walked into the club. Henry rolled his eyes behind Trevor. It was not that he didn’t want to help, but Annalise was too capable! © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Not long after, Ethan rushed over. Henry guessed Ethan had sped all the way here through the red light. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have made it here so quickly. Ethan looked around as soon as Loring entered the club. Henry said in Ustranasion, “Hello, I’m Damon from East Arising International Group.” Looking at Henry, Ethan was a little confused. “Ah… hello…” He found Henry quite familiar as if he had seen Henry somewhere before. How did he become East Arising International Group’s Executive president? Ethan wondered if this was a trick.
Henry, who could tell what Ethan was thinking, quickly said, “Forget about my identity. We have something else to talk to you about now. It’s about you getting Caretech Pharmaceutical Company’s employees to displace medicine!” Henry was not in the mood to prove to Ethan that he was the Executive President of East Arising International Group. Moreover, it was good for this identity to remain mysterious All trump cards would be the magic weapon to win. Ethan’s pupils constricted slightly on hearing that. However, he, as a veteran after all, was much more composed than Nydia. Ethan looked at Henry with a frown. “What medicine? You’re mistaken. How can I get someone to exchange medicine? The Xander Group doesn’t deal in medicine.”
“Drop the act. We are able to find you because we have evidence. Do you think that you did it flawlessly? Then you really think too highly of yourself. We have got the footage of you and Nydia, flawlessly? Then you really think too highly of yourself. We have got the footage of you and Nydia, the Warehouse manager of Caretech Pharmaceutical Company. We’ve known everything including you giving her a suitcase of money, the medicine you gave her, and the time to change the medicine. “I called you here just to make clear who’s behind this,” said Henry with cold eyes. That aura around him was completely different from his usual frivolous attitude. really don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Ethan, who had been working as the executive assistant for Yechiel Xander for 20 years, was very tactful. Without evidence, how could he allow others to trick him?
Even if Nydia was caught, it didn’t mean Ethan would admit it. He did not know how Nydia was caught, but he knew very well that his appointment with her was very secretive. He had avoided the surveillance cameras. Even if Nydia revealed him, he could bite back at her saying that he didn’t know her at all and she was just making things up. What evidence did she have to prove it was him?
