Following the navigation system’s direction, Darius drove Bridget and Erin to the location of the banquet.
Sometime later, Erin finished fixing her makeup in the backseat.
She felt awful for letting Darius, her boss, drive them all to the event, so she cleared her throat twice to speak.
"Mr.Reid, based on my investigation, the banquet will occur at a location that the Gillettes are familiar with—Remnard Estate, their family home.According to tradition, their family gathers in that estate for significant events throughout the year.Earlier, when we encountered Thomas Gillette, I searched for photos of the Gillette family’s events online and did not see him in any of them.Thus, I firmly believe that man has ulterior motives.Not to mention, it’s quite an uncanny coincidence that he’s showing up now.The Gillettes have always been arrogant.The family’s focus isn't on their money.Instead, the Gillettes are more concerned with whoever poses a potential threat to them.It’s always been this way, so they’ve never encountered any trouble.Therefore, I believe that Thomas is a foe."
Pin-drop silence ensued in the car as Darius did not respond to her.
Erin inhaled deeply, gathering whatever courage she had left to say, "But what shocks me is when I investigated the Gillette family’s affairs again, I learned that majority of their business shares are indeed under Thomas’ name.Such a transfer of share ownership should’ve been revealed in the news.Plus, the legal procedures would take some time, so things shouldn’t be as it is now."
Darius continued to drive stoically.
