Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 1427 A Tiny Company

"Alright."

Upon hearing that, Darcy quietly lowered her gaze to her meal, not daring to instigate further conversation. If Kendrick could evade bankruptcy, she would be more than happy to maintain her silence.

Suddenly, Kendrick retrieved a bank card from his pocket and placed it before Darcy.

She was taken aback by Kendrick's action as she recognized the card. It was a black card that was recognized worldwide, but there was a small symbol on it indicating it was a supplementary card.

A supplementary card was fine with her.

"Kendrick, what are you doing?" She feigned confusion.

If he truly meant this move, then she had struck gold.

"This supplementary card is for you. You must be running low on funds by now. Don't worry. I have some to spare."

He pushed the card forward with his gaze fixed on Darcy, studying her reaction. It was only by continuously understanding her thoughts that he effectively executed his plan.

Her eyes suddenly sparkled. With this, she would have access to all of his assets and could buy whatever she wanted.

"It's fine, Kendrick. I still have my salary, so you don't need to concern yourself with this."

In an attempt to preserve her image, Darcy spoke softly, not wanting him to uncover her true intentions.

"Keep it. Consider it a keepsake of our time together."

He lowered his gaze and continued savoring his steak with a faint smile on his lips. He no longer wanted to watch Darcy's acting.

Seeing this, Darcy feigned shyness and tucked the card away, saying somewhat bashfully, " I'll accept it then."

She carefully stowed the card in her bag before she resumed eating, not daring to disturb him.

After the phone call, his mood had soured. At this time, she needed to be considerate.

Back in Restrad, Ryan discovered that Kendrick had completely abandoned him and was momentarily thrown into a panic.

He surmised that he had overreacted this time, which led Kendrick to discover the truth so quickly.

Ryan would not allow himself to bear the blame for this matter alone. Since Kendrick wanted to pin all the blame on him, then he could not be blamed for being ruthless in return.

He sat down and began to compile the information he had gathered about Kendrick during this time.

After two hours, Ryan scrutinized the information he had compiled with a serious expression. There was not much, just Kendrick's name and the name of an obscure company.

Ryan's brows furrowed upon realizing that, but he believed this information would be valuable to Colton.

He tidied up the information and set it aside before sending it in an email to Colton.

Colton would undoubtedly seize this opportunity to apprehend him, but what if he provided information on Colton's opponent? Would he be let off the hook then?

He did not know; he had to take a gamble.

"Let Isaac handle it." Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Upon reading Ryan's message, Colton responded without hesitation. It was only fitting for Isaac to manage this matter.

After all, not many people could outwit a seasoned fox like Isaac. Clearly, Ryan was still a novice.

Beryl raised his eyebrows at Ryan's email. Ryan had really landed himself in hot water this time.

By the time Ryan was imprisoned, they would already have all the information they needed. For them, it was like killing two birds with one stone while Ryan would lose everything.

"I've found something on Kendrick's company, but it will take time to find out more."

Beryl suddenly brought up the topic of Kendrick's company, as investigating it was no easy task. It was unregistered, and they suspected it was quite a tiny company.

There were many tiny companies around, so it was normal for the right one to be hard to find.

"I see. Keep searching. Be fast."

Colton nodded, but his expression was tense. If this matter continued to drag on, Kendrick would have time to recover from this.

Wendy, the little princess preparing boxed meals nearby, overheard the conversation between the two. They no longer feared her presence, probably because they were confident she could not escape. Listening to these conversations was a way to alleviate her boredom.

Tonight, she would have another opportunity to converse with Nicole. Heh, it was as though the gods were helping her.
