Chapter <b>706 </b>
At the end of the conference, Vi’s phone on the table buzzed.
Harvey was talking, so Vi declined the call after ncing at her phone screen.
However, the calls kepting in. Vi had a hunch it was <b>not </b>going to be something good. She looked at the caller ID from Jepton, and her heart <b>raced</b>. Instinctively, she looked at Mnie.
Mnie had been looking at her, so she was not shocked to see Vi shooting her a nce.
Vi was startled by Mnie’s calm gaze but was unsure why she would react like that. Yvette displeasedly interrupted, “Miss Shaw, can you please answer the call? Your phone keeps buzzing, and even the table is shaking.”
Looking at Harvey, Vi noticed the impatience in his eyes. She apologized and took her phone out of the room.
However, before leaving the door, she stopped and sounded to be in disbelief as she asked, “What did you say?”
Clutching the phone, she looked back at Mnie in fear.
However, Mnie only looked at her calmly.
Vi left the conference room and did not return even when the conference ended.
At noon<b>, </b>
Yvette returned with gossip and looked at Mnie meaningfully. “You look like you knew about this way long before we did.”
“Know what?” Mnie calmly arranged her things.
“Vi is being called to the police station in Jepton. They want her to cooperate in some investigation.”
Yvette clicked her tongue and continued, “Do you know what I saw when I came here? I saw Harvey and Vi quarreling in the lounge. Harvey sounded angry, and Vi was crying.”
Mnie looked at Yvette. “Why was she crying?”
Yvette shrugged. “She was insisting on her innocence. I’m just curious why the police in Jepton <b>gave </b>her a call.<b>” </b>
Mnie did not think she <b>needed </b><b>to </b>exin. It <b>was </b>her matter<b>, </b>and she did not
want everyone to know about it.
Yvette started analyzing the situation out of nowhere before suddenly <b>bing </b>silent.
Mnie felt a light shadow covering her. She lifted her head, only to see Eugene standing before her.
He was looking at her calmly as always.
Mnie froze and thought he came looking for her because of Vi.
Then, as expected, he tapped the table in front of Mnie twice. <b>“</b>I want to have a word with you.”
Mnie looked into his eyes calmly and lowered her head. Then, she nodded and followed him.
At a café nearby, amidst the soothing song that was ying in the background, Mnie looked at her cup of coffee as she waited for Eugene to speak.
Eugene’s voice sounded serious and formal. “The date of Jackson’s return to Oskon City has been arranged. He’ll be arriving at the airport at 10:00 am next Monday. Jackson is a man who cares about his reputation and is stubborn.
“As soon as he decides something, you can’t change his mind.”
He was stern and sounded serious.
Mnie did not expect him to discuss this and suppressed her strange feelings. So, we have to grab this opportunity?”
Eugene’s eyshes fluttered, and he reminded Mnie, “Not we, it’s you.”
Mnie pursed her lips, knowing LeapCo was in a different situation.
LeapCo was a corporation. Even if Redwaves was against Eugene, they would still be respectful because of Cedric.
However, Burning Star Studio had no backers.
Mnie lowered her head and pondered before nodding. “I got <b>it</b>.” Then, she looked at Eugene and said thoughtfully<b>, </b>“Thank you.”
