“It’s the GW Group again.” The thought of them gave me goosebumps. If Ashton had been more

adamant with Sean back then, I’d be the one missing now.

Marcus’ head was still hanging low. “I’ve been searching for them in M Country for the past two weeks

but to no avail. I wonder how they’re doing now…”

I was lost for words. The GW group must’ve kidnapped Camelia and her child as leverage. It was just a

matter of time till they get in touch with Marcus. And by then, Marcus could only yield to them.

What Ashton said was true. The GW group was callous and brutal.

Seeing how Marcus was mentally disheveled, I decided to let him mull over a bit. I got up and went to the

kitchen.

“Have some water. You have to take good care of yourself in order to get them back.” I handed him the

cup.

Instead of taking a sip, he plonked it on the table and grabbed my wrist in a flash. I quickly waved my

other hand towards the bodyguards to show them that it was alright.

“Scarlett.” Marcus looked earnestly at me in despair. “I’ve never ever begged you for anything. Could you

help me out this time?”

“Yes, Marcus. I’ll send someone to look for them. Camelia is just like a sister to me. If the situation

permits, I’ll look for them myself!” I’d do anything for Camelia, my bestie.

Marcus seemed disappointed with my offer and turned his head away. “That’s not what I’m talking

about.”

“Then, what do you want?” Right, Marcus could obtain a bigger search team with a phone call and

needn’t come here personally. It must’ve been something else for him to risk his life. The bodyguards

almost locked him up in the basement, assuming that he was a hitman.

What exactly did he want?

After some time, he gave out a pitiful gaze and uttered a few words with his chapped lips. “From what I

know, Ashton is trying to strike a deal with the GW group.”

A week later, the Fuller Corporation announced that its subsidiary in Dartan had gained 18% of Eisen

Corporation’s shares through a swap transaction via an intermediary. As a result, it had successfully

acquired Eisen Corporation by withholding more than 50% of its shares.

Scores of investment organizations brought a suit against Fuller Corporation in Dartan, saying that

Ashton intentionally manipulated the stocks and wanted compensation for their financial damages from

this hedge fund. While the government was dismissing the case, Ashton was already back in K City.

He was back home an hour later.

“What a victorious return, Mr. Fuller.” I welcomed him with open arms.

He reciprocated with a long hug in front of Summer.

After he gave Summer her present, Mrs. Eriksen took her aside to unbox it.

Ashton and I finally got to sit down and caught up a bit after two weeks.

“Hey, the international media put out news about you being thoroughly ravenous, and your actions had

caused suicides of those who’d lost their fortune in the share market. It seems like they’re going to bring

you to court on the issue of equity transactions too. They won’t let you get away with what you’ve done.”

I teased him using the news I read on Facebook.

He appeared unruffled and turned around to embrace me. While he habitually fiddled with my hand, he

talked about this project that involved tens of billions. “Just let them do as they please. It’s not the first

time something like this has happened, anyway. It’s funny how those who’ve pocketed so much profit

from it are jealous. But what can they do? They can’t sue me in Dartan, and their charges against me in

M Country were dismissed. At the end of the day, they achieved nothing but embarrassed themselves.

I’m not interested in stopping them from their foolish acts.
