"So can we be sure that he was the one who hired the navy this time?"
"Yes. They were very cautious about keeping their identities hidden, but I still found a flaw. Following the clues, I traced it back to one of Faaris's assistants. When you think about Faaris's identity and the conflict between you two, it's not hard to guess the reason behind it."
"Evidence? Do we have any solid evidence to prove that it was them?" Laila was tired of someone constantly trying to sabotage her.
Xiao Ye smiled, "Evidence? Let's not talk about whether my evidence can be presented openly. Do you think you need evidence? Miss, you can be Laila Moran, the daughter of the Moran family, right?"
Laila was stunned by his words, and it took her a while to come to her senses.
Right! Most of the evidence he found in his way couldn't be brought out in the open court. It's believed that they must have taken many precautions, so it's not easy to catch them.
Moreover, as he said, she was a member of the Moran family, the heiress to tens or even tens of billions of assets. Did she need evidence to do something?
She had never thought about it because she didn't grow up in this place. Her thoughts were formed before coming to this world. In her subconscious mind, she didn't realize how much power money could give her in America. Whenever something happened, she would unconsciously think about it from the perspective of her previous life, forgetting the power she already had.
Why was she such a "country bumpkin"? Many noble families should know that things were instilled in the children of the family from an early age. But after she arrived, she basically couldn't get in touch with those things.
Little Laila's memories were like books in a library, only when she wanted to read a book would she find it. She couldn't think of using those things, so she couldn't search for relevant memories in her mind.
So, she had great backing, but she was embarrassed because she couldn't remember to use it except for publicity related to movies.
Xiao Ye understood her expression. It turns out that this young lady is a truly good person. She never thought of using her privileges! A little touched, what should he do?
He looked at her and couldn't help but want to wipe his eyes to express his emotions. He had seen too many people who abused their privileges, but he rarely saw someone who had privileges and didn't think of using them. If you used privileges once, people would unconsciously think about using them a second time. But this young lady only thought of this under his prompting, apparently never having had such thoughts before.
If Laila knew that even her subconscious expression would make others think she was being played the "good person" card, she would probably be speechless for a while.
"You're right. I'll tell Grandpa about this matter." She didn't know how to use her so-called privileges, and she believed that her grandfather would be happy to help her solve this matter. And through this matter, she could learn about how the nobility dealt with such things.
Xiao Ye dryly smiled, "Actually, I think your grandfather might already be helping you."
Laila was stunned again, "What do you mean?"
"Don't you think you had a comfortable second half of last year, with no one secretly causing trouble for you?"
Laila nodded. It was true. There was originally a group resisting "The Lord of the Rings," which kept helping her gain popularity, but for some reason it ended without a trace, disappointing her for a while.
"The reason no one was causing trouble was because Faaris returned to his country. And the reason he went back was because Dawud's family had caused a lot of trouble, and many people were eager to bring him down from the top."
Laila was puzzled, "What does that have to do with my grandfather?"
"Think about it. For so many years, Dawud's iron-fisted policies have kept the rest of his family in line. If there weren't people supporting him from the outside, would they suddenly all come out? And their competitors, if there were no benefits, they would not act against him so rashly."
It seemed to make some sense. Laila nodded in confusion, then shook her head, "I still think it's unlikely. According to what you said, if it was my grandfather doing something, he would have had to lay the groundwork early to achieve the current effect. But you just found out the news, right? How could my grandfather have known early on and made a reaction?"
"How would I know?" Xiao Ye's analysis was based on some clues he had received, and he couldn't come up with any solid evidence. "Don't forget, I've already quit. Now, I'm just a small makeup artist under you. It's not surprising that I found out about the intelligence a few years late."
Although he said that, he was also puzzled. Even when he was still in the original organization, it was unlikely that he would have found Faaris, who was hidden so deeply, a few years ago. Was it just a coincidence? Was it just a coincidence that Dawud, who had targeted Laila, was seen unfavorably by other people in his family, so they wanted to replace him? Was it just a coincidence that his competitors saw him being entangled by his family and came out to fish in troubled waters?
After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Ye couldn't figure it out, so he could only put the question aside, "I don't know anything about these business matters. Anyway, I've told you the direction of the investigation. It's up to you what to do next." With that, he suddenly chuckled, "If you want someone to disappear from the world without a sound, I can introduce you to a few people who can make some extra money."
"No need! Thanks!" Laila declined him very decisively. Whether he was joking with her or being serious with that smug smile, she had no intention of using the dark world's methods to solve the problem. She loved movies and couldn't allow her movies to be made under such dark shadows!
Say she was silly or didn't know how to use her privileges. Anyway, she wouldn't allow her movies to become dirty sacrifices!
Of course, Xiao Ye was joking. But if she agreed, he wouldn't mind helping his friend make some extra money.
"If you have any ideas, feel free to call me anytime." He winked at her ambiguously, made a gesture of making a phone call with his right hand, and then left the office.
Laila propped her chin with one hand, frowning.
She didn't like this kind of messiness. She preferred a simple space where she could make her favorite movies to the extreme. She didn't deny that occasionally, for the sake of promoting movies, she also liked to play some tricks, but those tricks were never aimed at hurting others, just to get more attention.
But now, she learned from others that the person who had been secretly causing trouble for her all along was because of Faiza. This made her very uncomfortable. Because from the beginning, that woman had been causing trouble for her, and she almost died in the desert because of her. She really couldn't imagine what would have happened if Roy hadn't been by her side at the time. I believe that apart from being buried in the desert, there would be no other possibilities, right?
