A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Chapter 1510 Restart

"No, nothing happened. It feels a little strange, right? I think it's suspicious that Darren didn't take advantage of the time when you were gone. I wonder if he's plotting something," David stated. They had been waiting for Darren to strike but so far, he had done nothing.

"It's hard to say. Darren is a crafty guy. He will always attack when he knows the enemy is least expecting it," Jacob replied.

This whole time, Jacob had always regarded Darren as his biggest opponent. After all, Darren had always found a way to compete with him. Darren's methods were sly and devious. There was no way that Darren had just stopped trying to take them down.

While the two of them were considering the possibility that everything was going back to normal, chaos had broken outside.

Sam barged inside the office with wide eyes. He reported to Jacob and David as soon as he received the news.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Xu, have you seen the news? Someone said that even though the HT Group was in the middle of a food poisoning scandal, the CEO of the company was unsympathetic. They're saying that he went on a vacation with no regrets!" Sam informed them in an anxious tone. It seemed that they were in big trouble again.

"How can they bring it up again? I thought we cleared it up already. Why are they targeting you again all of a sudden?" David asked, glancing at Jacob. It was strange.

"I have no clue either. I was shocked when I saw the news floating around on the internet just now. It escalated quickly and was immediately shared by several reporters. There's a swarm of reporters downstairs," Sam told them. He felt helpless at this point.

"Let's just wait and see what else happens," Jacob said in a calm tone. He didn't want to lose composure yet.

After Sam enlightened them of the situation, Jacob and David turned on their computers. They saw the news that Sam was talking about and found that it was spreading like wildfire on the internet.

It seemed that Darren had had something up his sleeve after all. They had wondered why Darren had kept quiet when Jacob was away. It turned out that he had just been waiting for Jacob's return so he could drop this on them. Darren hadn't had a change of heart; he still wanted his revenge.

For a moment, Jacob became the center of the storm.
