"Kompass Group, right? Good. In that case, it's time for me to do something. Don't blame me if I forget the friendship we shared once." A sly smile played around Edward's mouth. As a matter of fact, he got along with the former president of Kompass Group quite well. It was not an appropriate time for him to turn them into an enemy. But something unexpected happened: they had challenged him. In this situation, there was no need to act friendly toward them anymore.
Mr. Mu, what should we do next?" The technician looked at Edward and asked. There were severe consequences for people who irritated the CEO, no matter who they were. They were going to be in a world of trouble.
They are trying to buy the stocks of our departmental storeS, aren't they? We will let them buy on purpose. But remember to protect the main system of FX International Group well. Keep them from hacking it. Besides that, let us increase their workload. Decode the firewall in their information system. They will enjoy the feast brought upon by the virus. Finally, we will purchase their stock shares," Edward stated. Edward was strong in the business field. He would not allow others to mount the high horse and look down upon him. He knew how to fight back in a decisive way and put pressure on his enemies. An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Oh, no! He would ask more for redressal from them.
"Yes, we'll get started right away," the technician replied firmly. One of the most fundamental requirements for a company to be successful was to equip the most advanced defense system. Many complicated and intricate firewalls had been installed to protect the data in FX International Group. If someone wanted to hack them, they were welcome to try! It was not even possible. The boss of FX International was Edward Mu. To let that happen, you would have to go through him first. However, things would be different if that 'someone' was a computer genius like Justin. But Justin would never do such thing as he was Edward's son.
Yes. Let me know if something comes up." Edward left the technology department. He took out his phone and called Luke.
"Hello! Mr. Mu. What can I do for you?" Luke was about to start his car to exit the company grounds. He stopped immediately to answer Edward's phone and waited for his orders.
"Luke, I want you to find out where the president of Kompass Group from H city is right now. Also, I want all the details about the people he has been in touch with recently." Kompass Group must have cooperated with another big company. Otherwise, they would not be bold enough to interfere with FX International Group's business.
Yes, Mr. Mu. I'll do it right away," Luke answered. He never questioned his boss's orders, but he could not help but frown. He knew Kompass Group because Edward had made contact with them before. However, he did not understand why he wanted to know more about their president all of a sudden.
Yes, just go! Do pay attention, the one I want to know more about is the new president of Kompass Group, Shaun Gao. Not their former president. Don't get this wrong," Edward emphasized. He pushed the doors of his office open and walked inside. He needed to know everything about his enemy. As the Chinese saying goes: if you know yourself and your enemy well, you will win every war. Edward was an expert at this. Before he took any further actions, he must know his enemy's social circle as he knew the palm of his hand.
"Yes, I see. I'll go. Bye." Luke hung up and dialed another number, ordering his men to carry out the mission. In S city, it was easy for Luke to investigate someone. Within half a day, detailed documents about all the people who had connections with Shaun Gao appeared on Edward's desk. Luke was a true detective. It was the reason why Edward trusted him with the work. "Mr. Mu, here are all the files and photos of Shaun Gao we took while we followed him secretly." Luke put the documents on the desk and stepped back, standing with his hands lowered. He looked at Edward respectfully, who was frowning slightly.
Sure. Is this woman familiar to you?" Edward asked, gesturing toward the photo in his hand. He did not know why, but he thought he had met this woman before.
Oh, I noticed it too. I thought it was strange. Her name is Melissa Xue. She is Shaun Gao's new girlfriend. Unfortunately and to my surprise, we were unable to find any information about her. She seems to have come out from nowhere. There is no trace of information regarding her at all. We know nothing but her name." That was part of the reason why Luke was staring at Edward. He wanted to know how he would react to this woman's photo.
"What? No trace at all? Well, since we can't find anything about her, why not go and meet her?" Edward smiled mischievously. They were staying at Kate Hotel of FX International Group. What a bold pair! They weren't worried at all that they might be under investigation.
I'm afraid they've gone out right now. I have sent some men to follow after them in secret." Luke frowned. He still remembered that when he had deliberately passed by them, Melissa Xue had turned pale. Soon, however, she seemed to recover and walked away as if nothing had happened. Luke found it extremely strange. He had a weird feeling about her.
Well, then let's meet them by accident!" Edward said. He would like to know how capable this Shaun Gao was. How dared he try and acquire FX International Group.
I see, Mr. Mu. Do you mean to have dinner at Kate Hotel?" Only that way could the boss avoid alarming them. He could truly make them believe they met by chance.
"Yes. Oh, invite Rain and the others to have dinner with me. It will be more interesting when they are around." Edward smiled coldly. Shaun Gao, a brilliant graduate from Harvard University? He did not think so. If Shaun Gao was such a smart guy, how could he choose to stay at Kate Hotel, his enemy's territory? Arrogance could kill a person.
"Yes. I'll inform them about it soon. But Mr. Leng seems to have gone abroad," Luke inferred from the news he had heard earlier. His reply was hesitant. He was not sure whether or not Edward knew about it. As Mr. Leng's good friend and Leena's brother, he must know.
Oh! Yes, you remind me! I almost forgot about it. Leena is ill. Duke flew over to Paris to take care of her. He will probably be back in two days." Edward ran a hand through his hair. How could he have forgotten such an important thing? Was Leena better now? She caught a cold earlier.
"Miss Leng is ill? Is she all right now?" Upon hearing that Leena was sick, Luke could not help but ask. After all, he had known Leena since she was a little child. He did not wish for her to be in any trouble.
"Oh! She must be much better now. Since Duke is not here, you can call Tom and Rain. They should be enough, I think." Edward sighed. Leena always had them worrying over her. Luckily, Paris was not so far away from here. Only half a day of flying could bring Duke there. Otherwise, they would have no idea what to do when something befell her.
