Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love

Chapter 834: Chapter 837: Has Mr. Lucas Been Cursed?!

Lily frowned in deep thought.

But no matter what Simon Taylor’s reasons were, she had no intention of letting Rowena Gray off the hook.

After hanging up the phone, she immediately issued a strict order to Blake Graham.

Under no circumstances were they to back down, they had to make sure Rowena Gray received the punishment she deserved.

The crimes committed by Rowena Gray could perhaps be settled with money, but the last charge, hiring a hitman to commit murder, turned the whole affair from an economic crime into a criminal case.

Even if Simon Taylor had the money to cover the seventy five million shortfall.

The charge of hiring a hitman for murder, however, was something Rowena Gray could not escape from, no matter what she said.

Furthermore, due to Blake Graham’s high profile, The Taylors had tried several times to bail out Rowena Gray, but the police station dared not relent.

Simon Taylor wanted to save Rowena Gray; she would not give him the chance.

Having ended Blake’s call, she then called Sadie and Blake separately.

She instructed Sadie to guard Lena Hammond securely and ordered Blake to step up the investigation into Rowena Gray’s son’s information.

Her woman’s intuition told her that the key to the problem might lie with the son Rowena Gray had borne for Simon Taylor.

Because she was delayed by these matters, Lily didn’t manage to call Benjamin Lucas IX early in the morning as she had originally planned.

At lunchtime, Aidan Lucas suddenly stopped Benjamin Lucas IX, who had come in to deliver a working meal.

“What tasks have you arranged for her?”

“Ah?” Benjamin Lucas IX was stunned for a moment, then he realized, “Mr. Lucas, Miss Redington didn’t call this morning.”

When he arrived at the company that morning, Mr. Lucas notified him that Miss Redington would call him later and asked him to arrange a job that was easy and well-paid for her depending on the situation.

Benjamin Lucas IX was puzzled at the time, Miss Redington had only just resigned yesterday, so why was she coming to work at the company today?

This woman’s move to get close to Mr. Lucas was too swift, and moreover, her background couldn’t be clearly discerned, clearly posing a risk.

Thinking it over, Benjamin Lucas IX decided to voice his concerns.

“Mr. Lucas, although we have been working in Bastion recently and even if she comes over, she won’t be able to access the company’s core data… I just feel that Miss Redington’s appearance is a bit strange, wouldn’t it be inappropriate to let her into the company?”

In Benjamin Lucas IX’s mind, this Arianna Brooks was likely a corporate spy.

Even if she wasn’t, she might still be a woman sent by Theodore Lucas to entrap with her beauty.

Although Theodore Lucas had been quiet this past year, it didn’t mean he wouldn’t take action again.

Aidan Lucas’s expression darkened slightly upon hearing his words.

His tone became chilly in an instant, “If she hasn’t called by the time work ends this afternoon, you take the initiative to call and ask. Arrange a job for her as soon as possible, she needs money.”

The man didn’t bother to address Benjamin Lucas IX’s doubts at all.

After speaking, he buried himself in his work, completely indifferent to Benjamin Lucas IX’s shocked reaction.

Oh my God!

Benjamin Lucas IX mentally vented.

Had Mr. Lucas been bewitched, to be so good to that woman?

The advice he had just given clearly went in one ear and out the other for Mr. Lucas, completely filtered out!

Benjamin Lucas IX adjusted his gold-framed glasses, preventing himself from cursing out loud.

Not until he silently walked out of the office did he excitedly call his younger brother.

This wouldn’t do, he felt his brain wasn’t functioning well enough.

He had to seek help from the always resourceful Harrison Lucas.

Ten minutes later, Benjamin Lucas IX dialed Arianna Brooks’s number with a triumphant smile.

Heh heh heh, Chester was right; if Mr. Lucas truly took an interest in that woman.

Given Mr. Lucas’s domineering and tyrannical nature, it would be utterly useless no matter how much he argued against it.

Rather than blocking them, it’s better to deliberately create opportunities for that woman to get close to Mr. Lucas.

If she really harbors ill intentions, when the time is right, she will naturally reveal her true colors.
