"No, it's nothing," Jared said with dark eyes. This month's financial statement seemed normal, but it felt like

something was wrong with it.

"Mr. Johnston, there's still no news on Iris," Max said, disappointed. "Was she always so good at hiding before?"

Max considered it highly unlikely that Iris had already left San Joto unless she could fly. Despite the size of the city,

there were few places for Iris to hide. Where could she hide without being discovered?

Jared's expression was gloomy. He did not expect that there would be no information about Iris's whereabouts.

"Should we call the team back?" Max probed. If the manhunt slackened, Iris might let down her guard and show

herself.

"No. She'll lose patience eventually,” Jared replied. She could hide all she wanted, but there would be times she

would need to show herself to survive.

"Yes, sir," Max responded. "I'll send in more manpower."

"How is it on Lawrence?" Jared asked coldly. Compared to Iris, Jared felt Lawrence was a bigger thorn in his side.

"We've been in contact with a few projects that have been negotiating with Genesis Group. But Lawrence did not

make any further moves," Max informed. They could not tell what Lawrence was planning as he was keeping a

rather low profile.

Jared's eyes narrowed.

"Let's not rush it and wait," Jared said. Unless Lawrence conceded defeat, there was no way he would keep a low

profile.

"Yes, sir." Max then left the office.

Jared shifted his attention to the computer screen again, his eyes deep and thoughtful.

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.

A series of sudden hasty knocks sounded on the door.

"Come in," Jared answered coldly.

Max reentered the office and announced seriously, "Mr.

Johnston, the company's stock price suddenly went down."

This was an unusual case for Johnston Group unless someone was behind it. Jared could not think of anyone who

could freely manipulate the group's stock price.

Jared instructed, "Investigate the situation now.”

"I've already got someone on it. It's just that there's not much news yet," Max said with his face pale. "Mr. Johnston,

could Lawrence be behind this?"

However, the investigation on Lawrence's side had not yielded any result, and it was uncertain that Lawrence had

the ability to do such things.

"Have them investigate overseas as well," Jared ordered.

If it were Lawrence, he probably would not link the actions to Genesis Group. It was more probable that they were

connected to his operations overseas. However, Lawrence's ability to jeopardize Johnston Group's standing in San

Joto through his overseas operations indicated that his strength had increased considerably.

"Understood." Max nodded and left the office again.

Jared tapped a finger on his desk, something flashing in his eyes.

The news regarding the abnormal decline in Johnston Group's stock price was no secret to the major companies,

including Nicole. In Riddle Corporation, Steve and Sean were both in Nicole's office, discussing it.

"Jared's facing a rough patch. He's been on edge lately, but this caught me off guard," Steve remarked with a hint

of sympathy, his brow creasing.
