Those who had helped Duncan source the other pictures turned th
heads the other way.
They were afraid they might vomit.
Ten minutes later, Duncan returned the golf club to the security guard.
After cleaning his glasses, he read out the names of the women he
had chosen, âLuna Goodheart, Raine Lovelace, Jessie Yancey!â
The bodyguard nodded and then summoned someone to begin cleaning the room.
Just then, a knock rang out.
Duncan said calmly, âCome in!â
A tall bodyguard walked in and said, âSir⦠Weâve received news from
Splendor Microchips that Melody Stone met with one of the
companyâs higher-ups today!â
âWho did she meet?â Duncan asked calmly.
âWalter Watsonâs nephew⦠Louis Watsonâ¦â
âHaha⦠That womanâs a smart one for getting Walterâs family to investigate Splendor Microchips!â A sneer appeared on Duncanâs face.
as he spoke.
âWhat should we do now? Should we try getting rid of Louis Watson?â the bodyguard asked in a low voice.
âMelody will definitely tell Nash everything sheâs learned once she returns home. Nash isnât dumb, but heâs not particularly clever either. My guess is that heâll ask Walter to keep an eye on Louis!â
Duncan picked up another phone and made a call to the president of Splendor Microchips.
âSirâ¦â The man on the other end of the line spoke in a respectful tone.
âIâve taken a look at the recent financial statements. Profits of the
Greater Western Somer area, which Louis Watson is in charge of,
have hit record lows for three consecutive months. Heâs not fit for
this role!â Duncan spoke calmly.
âI know how to proceed!â
Duncan hung up the phone once the man on the other end of the line.
responded. A victorious smile appeared on his face.
If Melody went to Nash, there was no doubt Nash would worry he had
bribed Louis.
Hence, he would ask Watson to keep an eye on Louis so that they
could not get in touch with each other.
Yet, Louis was not involved in all this.
It was a game of cat and mouse.
However, not only would the intelligent mouse not get caught by the
cat, but it would also bite the cat when the time was right.
Then, Duncanâs other phone began ringing.
âMiracle Doctor Tanner! Hello!â Duncan said in a low voice.
âDidnât you set an appointment for this afternoon? Why arenât you here yet?â Mireille asked gently.
She had received a text message requesting an appointment
yesterday afternoon.
Yet, despite it already being late afternoon, the patient still had not.
arrived.
She was worried it was a severely ill patient who could not make it
because their condition had worsened, which was why she decided to
make that phone call.
âCough⦠Cough coughâ¦
âDoctor Tanner⦠I donât have any strength. I canât walk at all⦠Can you
visit me at my home?â Duncan asked weakly.
âIâm sorry, but I donât make visits in the evening⦠Perhaps you could visit the nearby hospital?â Mirielle replied, her voice sounding
apologetic.
Duncan laughed sadly, âThe doctors at the hospital are all quacks. They canât cure me of my illness. Tanner Group Clinic is the only
establishment I trust!â
âWellâ¦â
Mireille did not know what to do. Her father and Larry were attending. a conference at Capiton, and she was the only person working at the clinic now.
Both her grandfather and her father had made her promise she would not visit patients at night.
