Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 638 A Strange Contact

Once Ainsley returned home, she received a call from Manuel before she got out of the car. Hearing the call's

contents, she immediately put on a serious expression and told Matteo not to go to the parking lot. ’Matteo, let's

head to the Gage Group."

"What' is it? Did they decrypt the phone's message?” Matteo's expression was solemn.

Ainsley nodded nervously, holding the phone in her hand. Manuel had already hung up the phone a long time ago.

Throughout the journey to the Gage Group, she was nervous.

She did not know what kind of information was found in the phone and if there were any clues that could be used.

Feeling uneasy, Ainsley and Matteo pushed the door of Manuel's office open.

At that moment, the person sitting in the main seat was not Manuel but Roman. His eyes were bloodshot.

Apparently, he had stayed up all night to fix the phone.

He turned the screen of his computer toward Matteo and Ainsley. "Look. This is Mr. Easton's chat history that day."

Matteo could retrieve the call logs himself, but he found nothing unusual after retrieving them.

Ainsley stared at the computer screen intently. There was nothing else to see.

Some of the messages were from Harold: [Leandro, when are you coming? Everyone is waiting.]

[Leandro, nothing's going to happen to Aisy. Don't be too anxious. Do update me if there's any news.]

[What happened? Why didn't you answer the phone?]

Although there was half an hour between each of the three messages, nothing was unusual.

From the list of contacts, Ainsley also saw her name.

It was back when she was kidnapped, and her father, Leandro, had been texting her incessantly: [Aisy, are you

okay?]

[Aisy, don't scare me!]

[Aisy, I'm coming for you!]

From the call logs Matteo had retrieved, she found that almost all of Leandro's calls were made to her that day.

However, her phone had been thrown away, and she did not answer any of them.

Even when Leandro was speeding on the road madly, he had kept calling Ainsley, hoping she would pick up his call.

Yet, none of his calls had gotten through.

The rest of the messages were mainly from the company, except for one very suspicious message that caught

Ainsle/s attention.

The message wrote: [Do you agree or not?]

Seeing his message had not been replied to after a whole day, the person sent another message: [Don't regret it.]

The message had been sent to Leandro when he went to the family banquet.

Ainsley pointed at the chat history and asked bafflingly, "Who's this?"

Roman casually clicked to send a message and replied, "Look. This account has been deleted a long time ago."

With a solemn expression, he continued, "When I saw this message, I tried to check who the sender was, but I

couldn't find anything, not even the IP address. After all, this message was sent four years ago, and it was not easy

to find it."

Ainsley thought it was not an easy path for them, as they only found one such message after investigating for so

long.

But there was no other way. No matter how difficult it was, she still had to investigate it.

"The contact person's phone account has already been terminated. I've printed out the call logs for the day of the

incident, the day before, and also the day after. I think it's unrealistic for this person to only send messages. He

must have called, too. We should be able to find some clues after checking these numbers one by one." Roman

placed a thick stack of papers in front of Ainsley.

Ainsley nodded with a solemn expression. Anyway, they could only do so before they had any other clues.

"Thank you." She was about to take the papers away.

Roman immediately took the papers back. "You're most welcome, Ms. Easton. I'll have someone check these phone

numbers, and we may know the outcome soon. Don't worry too much."

"Can you forward me these messages?" Ainsley asked.

Roman immediately pushed a flash drive toward her. "I already prepared it beforehand. Here. This flash drive

contains all kinds of records of Mr.

Easton, as well as some photos and videos. I think it's very important to you."

Ainsley's fingers trembled slightly as she took the flash drive. ’Thank you." "If you want to thank someone, thank Mr.

Gage. He specifically ordered me to prepare this."

Ainsley glanced at Manuel, who was looking at her worriedly.

Meanwhile, there were not many people left in the Wade Group. Samuel walked into the company confidently.

Compared to a month ago, he now had many shares of the Wade Group, and no one could look down on him

anymore.

He only came to the office now because Irene was gone.

He even called for an emergency shareholders meeting in front of Irene's assistant.

During the meeting, he swept his gaze across the shareholders present.

Elvis and Sam are still in the company. This person who has remained silent should be Manuel's watchdog, Brice.

"Since when can an outsider hold a board meeting? It's unbelievable!" Elvis sneered. Having the Easton family

backing him up made him fearless.

Samuel laughed in response. "All the shareholders are here. Why are you the only one spouting nonsense?"

Sam immediately replied, "Not all shareholders are here. While Mr. Wade is still in a coma and Ms. Wade has been

hold up in the detention room, the most irrelevant people hold an emergency board meeting and even sit in Mr.

Wade's seat. Is the Wade Group yours now? Why haven't I heard about it?"

Irene's assistant, Danny, stood behind Samuel and stared at the despicable middle-aged man before him. The

shareholders still have no idea what Samuel has done. Cason and Matteo's shares are all in his hands now. He has

the right to speak more than most people here.

Samuel smiled and pointed at Elvis and Sam. "Speaking of irrelevant people, I know two of them. Elvis, Sam, the

board meeting of the Wade Group should have nothing to do with the two of you, right?"

"What do you mean, Samuel?" Elvis immediately rose from his seat and glared at Samuel.

Sam was much smarter. He did not question Samuel directly and began to think carefully about what he had

overlooked. If Samuel doesn't have any shares, it's impossible for Danny to let him sit here peacefully. But as far as

I know, even if Irene is really imprisoned, she will never give Samuel the shares of the Wade Group.

"I mean, you guys are not the shareholders of the Wade Group. Why are you attending the board meeting?"

Samuel questioned calmly.

Elvis and Sam looked at each other silently before saying, "Samuel, why don't you make it clear?"

Samuel immediately rebuked, "Don’t think that I don't know what you guys have been doing secretly. The shares of

the Wade Group in your hands have long been sold out. I'm warning you, leave now! Otherwise, I'll have security

guards kick you out!"

As soon as his words fell, most of the shareholders present looked at Elvis and Sam. Most of them did not

understand what Samuel meant.

A hint of panic flashed across Sam and Elvis' eyes, but they quickly recomposed themselves. There's no need to be

afraid. Our shareholders' rights are given by the original owners!
