Chapter103
Kaleb gave Adelaide, who was sitting next to Reginald, a meaningful look, cleared his throat, and got straight to the
point.
“Just now our guys already questioned Zayne, he confessed to hiring people to kidnap Ms. Pierce and even filming videos to
threaten her.”
Finley showed a fatherly expression and said “Adele, I’m sorry for what happened. I never thought he would do such a crazy
thing.”
Seeing him act vividly, Adelaide said with a smile but not a smile, “It’s good that the person was caught, but I still can’t let go
of the tax evasion. Dad, have you and Spencer cooperated to
investigate the audit over there? Have you found out about the
tax evasion?”
“This time it was Zayne, who knows who it will be next time. If I get kidnapped a few more times, I can’t handle it.“‘
Sure enough, Finley’s face looked visibly stiff.
“The Hicks Group didn’t evade taxes,” Spencer said, looking at
Adele with a reassuring expression. “Adele, don’t worry,
something like this won’t happen again. Once we’re out, I’ll
Chapter103
arrange for you to have a few bodyguards by your side.”
Adelaide felt a chill in her heart.
She guessed it right on the money, Spencer was planning to
arrange a bodyguard for her.
“Are you sure it wasn’t you who said that, but the auditor?”
Reginald raised an eyebrow, smiling faintly as he spoke.
In an instant, Spencer shot a glance.
“Mr. Thorton, this seems to be a private matter of my the Pierce
family.”
“Spencer!” Finley whispered a warning.
But Spencer turned a deaf ear and just glared at Reginald with
hostility.
Reginald chuckled lightly, his eyes filled with more emotion.
“Adelaide was the core designer of my team. When something
happened to her, I suffered immeasurable losses. You should be
grateful she is your daughter, otherwise you and your son
wouldn’t have the chance to sit here peacefully and talk.”
Finley caught on to something, eyes widening: “Adele, were you
a designer on Mr. Thorton’s team?”
Spencer fell silent for a moment, with a storm brewing in his
Chapter103
eyes.
Adelaide smiled slightly, “Mr. Thorton hired me because he saw
my skills. But Dad, shouldn’t you be more concerned about
where I work now?”
At this moment, Kaleb coughed lightly again and said, “Bring
Zayne in.”
As soon as the words were spoken, the door opened and Zayne,
who had been escorted in by the police, looked crestfallen.
When he saw Finley and Spencer, he immediately lit up with
excitement.
“Finley, you are absolutely shameless!”
“If it weren’t for you, how could I have ended up like this!”
“I had no grudge against you, but you still dragged me out to
take the blame. You will get what you deserve!”
The empty meeting room was filled with Zayne’s angry shouts.
Finley’s face turned pale and then green, but he didn’t say
anything.
