Q’s Identity Has Been Found!
Sean’s words made sense.
It was to the extent that Lawrence didn’t even know what to say anymore. He lowered his head and
muttered to himself, “But if we take the initiative to contact them, then it will look like we have accepted
defeat.”
Taking the initiative to contact the enemy made it look as though they were begging for mercy.
Sean looked at him. He really didn’t know what he should be saying about him anymore.
In the end, he looked at Justin and asked, “Boss, what do you think?”
Justin would never decide against investigating what exactly had happened just because he didn’t want
to be embarrassed, and end up making enemies for himself everywhere.
The first principle of business was to hold harmony above all else.
Justin’s fingers tapped against the sofa, his expression surprisingly calm. Although he was rather angry
at Philip’s insistence that Nora had cheated on him, his rationality was still intact.
He slowly replied, “The question here is, will they tell you even if you ask them about it?”
Sean frowned.
That was also what he was worried about.
Philip had made it clear that they intended to be on opposing sides with them. His attitude was as though
he couldn’t be bothered to talk to Justin, and as though he was determined to drive them to their wits’
end. At a time like this, even if he sent Sean to bow down and ask them about it, Philip definitely couldn’t
be bothered to say anything.
When Justin saw the big frown on Sean’s face, he finally smiled and said, “What’s the hurry? Tell those
clients to persevere for a while longer. Even if we don’t ask him about it, someone will approach him and
find out for us just what has happened!”
Lawrence was dumbfounded when he heard him. He asked, “Boss, who’s going to ask them about it for
us?”
Sean: 1
11
Justin: “…”
Justin ignored Lawrence, lowered his head, and continued to read his documents and deal with work
matters.
As for Sean, the corners of his lips spasmed and he lowered his head and said, “I know what to do now.”
Lawrence was still confused. “Sean, what have you realized? What are you and the boss talking in
riddles about?!”
“… You’re better off just continuing being the bootlicker,” replied Sean.
Lawrence’s attention was immediately diverted. “Damn you, Sean! Are you looking for a beating or what?
You’re the bootlicker! Everyone in your family is a bootlicker! What I rely on are my education and
abilities, okay?”
The two left the Hunt Corporation bickering.
After they stepped out, Sean happened to see Herman walking by in front of him, so he suddenly
stopped.
Lawrence bumped into him at once. “What are you doing? Has Philip scared you so badly that your mind
isn’t functioning anymore?”
Sean frowned and sighed. “How can that be? No matter how powerful Philip is, this is America! America
will protect us. Besides, he isn’t just up against the Hunt Corporation, but both the Hunt Corporation and
the Smith Corporation, which are leading companies in the country. If we were overseas, we definitely
won’t be his match, but given the current situation, it’s hard to say who the winner will be!”
Lawrence nodded. “You are right!”
Sean spoke again. “No wonder Boss decided to cover up the news about Ms. Smith cheating. Unless we
absolutely have no other choice, news of it mustn’t get out.”
Lawrence: “?”
He was dumbfounded. He wanted to reprimand Sean and say that Ms. Smith hadn’t cheated on Justin
and that the person in the villa was none other than Justin himself!
Other people might not know any better, but he had delivered food to Justin before!
But when he looked up, he happened to see Herman standing where he was. The elevator had obviously
already arrived, yet he didn’t enter. Lawrence got it right away.
The guy was indeed rather smart, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to stay by Justin’s side and
help him fend off all of the unwanted advances on him all these years.
He promptly and decisively said, “Yeah, it’s just that Boss has suffered some grievances. Sigh!”
Sean and Lawrence exchanged a look. Then, both walked into the corridor next to them in unison.
After they left, Herman’s face turned green.
Lauren, who was beside him, looked at Herman’s expression and immediately said, “I didn’t expect that
Justin would be willing to even be cuckolded just so he could keep his position! Sigh, he may despise
you, but at least you were much better than him back then!”
Herman suddenly looked at her. “You talk too much!”
Lauren knew that Herman didn’t want to talk about the shame and humiliation of being forced to give up
his wife, so she immediately said, “Don’t take it to heart too much. What happened back then was not
your fault, really.”
Herman lowered his head. “If Justin loses the Smiths’ support, I wonder how long he’ll be able to keep
his position as president of the company!”
Lauren’s eyes flickered when she heard this.
She said, “I’ll go and ask around.”
The two went downstairs. With their chauffeur driving, Herman took Lauren to the hotel where Philip was
staying. He had just set up a meet with Philip, the two were really planning to join forces this time.
In the hotel.
In the study, Herman and Philip discussed how they should go about suppressing the Hunt Corporation.
Lauren’s status was not worthy of seeing Philip yet, so she could only chat with Jason, Philip’s assistant,
outside the door.
Jason’s hands were placed in front of him, and he stood where he was in a prim and proper manner
without moving at all. It was obvious at a glance that he was trained in martial arts. He was not only
Philip’s assistant but also his bodyguard.
After a moment’s thought, Lauren leaned over and asked, “Mr. Jason, to be honest, even though Herman
and Justin are fighting each other in the company, Iris is still in charge of family affairs. I plan to fight for
the housekeeping rights, so I’d like to ask you a favor.”
Jason glanced at her with some disdain, but he nevertheless asked, “What kind of favor?”
Lauren said tentatively, “Originally, the matter about Nora Smith’s cheating was already a sure bet, but
who knew that Justin would suddenly pop up out of nowhere and insist that he was in the villa during
those few days. In truth, he had actually gone abroad during that time. We all know this very well, but
even so, I don’t have any actual evidence, so I can’t cement the fact that Nora cheated either… If the
news about her cheating can be cemented and posted onto the Internet, the Hunts will have to break off
the engagement with the Smiths, even if it’s just to avoid embarrassing themselves. When that happens,
he won’t have any help from the Smiths anymore.”
Upon hearing this, Jason lowered his eyes and suddenly said, “Nora Smith’s secret lover is Q the
hacker.”
“What?” Lauren didn’t expect to sound such important information out of Jason so easily. She said in
surprise, “Really?”
“Yeah,” Jason told her about the evidence he’d found.
Lauren instantly understood.
After Herman and Lauren left, Jason finally entered the office and said, “I have told Lauren about Nora
Smith keeping Q as a lover.”
“Okay.”
Philip said, “Eagle of the Imperial League is probably a Smith. I don’t want to fall out with the members of
the group either.”
After all, King had taken Eagle’s side the last time.
Therefore, when Herman was on the way over earlier that day, Philip had hinted to Jason to give them
the true identity of Nora’s secret lover, as well as evidence of it.
—
On the third day.
As soon as Nora woke up, she received a call from a concerned Tanya. In a low and hoarse voice, Nora
asked, “What’s the matter?”
Tanya said immediately, “Nora, you are trending on social media again! They are saying that they’ve
found out who the pretty boy you’re keeping as a lover is!”
