Chapter 189 Multiple Crises

“What? How is that possible? Who was her grandfather?” Taylor asked, surprised.

He always thought Willow was merely the president of Southlake Corporation. He didn’t

know she had such a background.

“Willow’s grandfather was Zander Stewart. He was highly accomplished in geomancy.

Unfortunately, he passed away a few years ago. However, I found some information that

he possessed a manual, and it’s likely in Willow’s hand now,” Bob explained.

This was the information he managed to collect in a short time.

He was taken aback at first, but as there was more evidence, he gradually came to believe

it.

“Here’s some information on Zander.” Bob passed a tablet to Taylor.

On the tablet was a new report about Zander’s early fame and expertise in astronomy and

geomancy. Under the pressure of his family to continue the legacy, he took over the

company but never gave up on his interest.

“I didn’t expect Willow to have such an amazing grandfather. With Zander gone, I wonder

if she learned anything. We can capture her for interrogation or steal the manual from

her!” Taylor exclaimed excitedly.

“It’s a good plan! But Caspian is her husband. It might be risky to act rashly,” Bob

expressed his concern.

Caspian’s strength was unfathomable, and Bob didn’t dare to act without a proper

strategy.

“Things might work in our favor. We could capture Willow and use her as leverage to lure

Caspian into the tunnel at Dragon’s Hill. Even if he’s powerful, he’ll surely meet his end if

he’s there alone!” Taylor said.

Despite Caspian’s status as the Diatoranian God of War, they had an army of soldiers, so

they weren’t afraid.

After all, Caspian was only human. As powerful as he was, he couldn’t possibly use his

skills in a tunnel.

“Excellent! If Willow can solve the puzzle, we can accomplish two missions. Even if she

can’t, we’ll seize the manual and kill Caspian!” Bob chuckled.

“Make sure Willow tells us the exact location of the manual. We shall observe if she can

solve the puzzle. After she unlocks the disk, we’ll kill her!” Taylor added.

He cared more about the treasures behind the stone door. Though unsure of Willow’s

ability, he wanted to give it a try.

“I understand. I’ll arrange it now!” Bob responded excitedly. If they could get the treasure,

King Kan would undoubtedly reward him handsomely.

“There’s no need to rush. I have something else to tell you. Even if Willow has the ability

to solve the puzzle, she’s still a woman and might not have the strength.

“When the time comes, I’ll need your soldiers to move the constellation pieces.

“But I assure you, if we manage to complete this task, I’ll request a reward of five billion

dollars from King Kan. The condition is that you must do as I say unconditionally,” Taylor

instructed.

In order for the mission to succeed, Taylor needed reinforcements. He knew that he

couldn’t accomplish it just by relying on himself.

“It’s a deal!” Bob didn’t refuse.

Five billion dollars was a large sum of money to him!

In the morning, Willow went to work at Southlake Corporation as usual.

When she arrived at the garage, she found Caspian standin

in front of the car.

“I’ve been free these past few days. How about I drive you to work?” Caspian said with a

smile.

“What’s going on? Why are you so eager to drive me to work? You’re definitely up to

something!” she said, puzzled.

“It’s only natural for me to drive my wife to work, right? Besides, you don’t have a driver.

Let me take on the role, but you don’t have to pay me!” he jokingly remarked.

He said so to dispel her concerns.

The reason he was insisting on accompanying her today was that he had received some

news from Sylvia.

She told him that the Tigrans were gathering information about Willow’s grandfather.

Caspian was worried that they might pose a threat to Willow, so he intended to stick close

to her these days.

“Well, since you’re eager to work, I’ll still give you a salary,” she said.

She also thought it wasn’t good in the long run for Caspian to remain unemployed. Since

he wanted to work now, she’d give him a chance.

Nodding, Caspian sat in the driver’s seat.

He drove Willow to Southlake Corporation.

Shortly after they left, Sylvia, Macy, and the Elite team followed them.

They’d also been safeguarding Willow these past few days.

Willow was still unaware that there might be danger looming over her.

“Has the situation at the company improved?” Caspian asked while driving.

“You’ve never cared about the affairs in the company. The company’s doing slightly better

now, but we can’t let our guard down!” Willow answered.

Southlake Corporation was slowly getting back to their feet, but Glorious Group was

watching them closely. They couldn’t let their guard down.

“I think Glorious Group will certainly close down in less than five days. By then, Southlake

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Corporation will dominate the entire Southlake City,” Caspian said with a smile.

In his view, he could deal with the other party in five days. Hence, when the time came,

Glorious Group would close down too.

“What? In five days? How is that possible! They’re thriving right now!” Willow didn’t

believe. Caspian’s words at all.

However, Caspian didn’t refute as he knew that the next few days would prove his words

right.

They safely reached Southlake Corporation.

Once Willow entered her office, she busied herself with work while Caspian leisurely read

the newspaper on the sofa.

She didn’t bother him as she had a pile of documents to go through.

The day passed without any unexpected incidents.

As evening approached, Macy called Caspian..

He left the office to take the call.

“Caspian, there are a few suspicious cars parked downstairs at Southlake Corporation,”

she

said.

“Do you know the identities of the people in the cars?” he asked.

“I’m not sure. But it’s evident they’re foreigners!” Macy replied.

“It seems they’re preparing to act. I’ll leave with Willow. Both you and Sylvia get ready. If

the people inside the cars are the special forces of Tigra, eliminate them on sight!”

Caspian instructed.

“I understand.” After Macy finished speaking, she hung up.

When Caspian returned to the office, he noticed Willow staring at him.

“Did you do something that you don’t want me to know? Is that why you sneaked out to

take a call?” she playfully questioned, pretending to be angry.
