1719 Make Plans
Morey slowly turned back. “Didn’t you manage to find anything?”
The secretary glanced at him and lowered his head slightly. “No, we did.”
When Morey saw the hesitant look on the secretary’s face, his eyes narrowed automatically. “What’s the matter?”
“The person Mr. Fan wants to see happens to be Chairman Min’s girlfriend.”
Morey was stunned. “What do you mean? Are they the same person?”
The assistant acknowledged softly. He quickly took out his phone, tapped on the investigator’s report, and handed the phone to Morey.
Morey frowned and took the phone from the assistant.
After some time, the secretary said, “Count Kerr, please take a look at Mr. Fan’s email.”
Morey swiped through Fan Shun’s email.
The photo on both reports showed that it was the same woman. Also, the information on both files was the same.
After reading the files, Morey’s face turned dark. “It’s really the same person.”
“That’s right. It is quite the coincidence.” The secretary did not manage to see Huo Yao’s face last night. When he received the report from the investigator, he was stunned.
The secretary paused and said, “I wonder if Mr. Fan knew about this already. It doesn’t matter if he didn’t. But if he did, then…”
The secretary stopped mid-sentence, but his words were clear enough.
If Fan Shun knew about this and told them to capture the girl, it was clear that he had evil intentions.
After all, they could not afford to offend the chairman of the Weapons Bureau.
Morey passed the phone back to his secretary. He walked up to the coffee table and sat down. After some time, he finally said, “Regardless of Fan Shun’s knowledge, to us, this is just business.”
There was no such thing as a free meal in the world.
The secretary sighed and looked at Morey. “Then, what should we do now, Count Kerr? Prince Rocco probably came regarding the weapons. If we offend the chairman of the Weapons Bureau now for the sake of a woman, we won’t get what we want.”
Morey narrowed his eyes solemnly. He had to work with Fan Shun.
In comparison to possessing an army of DNaltered soldiers, a woman was nothing.
Considering Rocco’s constitution, he might die at any time.
After considering the pros and cons, the best option was clear enough.
However, it was a bad idea to openly go against the Weapons Bureau. Morey narrowed his eyes and said, “Prepare some invitations and send them to the Huo family and the Weapons Bureau.”
He paused and added. “Oh yes. Mr. Fan has to attend my birthday banquet.”
The secretary instantly knew Count Kerr’s intentions. “The Huo family doesn’t get along with us, so they might not come. Even if they do show up, the Huo family might not bring the young woman along with them.”
Morey flicked his fingers nonchalantly. “We have to create opportunities for ourselves. Make arrangements to see Huo Qing.”
The secretary’s eyes lit up and promptly nodded. “Got it.”
The Huo family was rich and powerful. Owing to their long history, internal conflict was unavoidable.
When Huo Jinfeng took over the clan, he used iron-fisted methods to help the clan move out of the underworld. Now, they were as rich as the treasury.
Such major revolutions naturally caused existing internal disagreements to aggravate. After all, major changes in the clan would touch everyone’s personal pies. Naturally, some people did not like Huo Jinfeng’s actions.
Huo Qing happened to be one of them.
