Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 1006: Hand Her Over (8)
Of course, there’s also Gu Nuan—
But did Gu Nuan get fooled, or not?
A glint appeared in Su Yixia’s eyes.
Wei Changqing, Zhang Sanfeng, and others, along with people around the world, were in the hotel listening to the news broadcast being played right now, a piece of news that stunned the entire finance world.
Although, they actually knew Rogers was a fraud before the news aired.
"The news wasn’t leaked by our people." Wei Changqing’s expression was quite severe.
Since Gu Nuan had been taken away by unknown individuals, they couldn’t just let the news leak out, mainly for the sake of Gu Nuan’s personal safety. Based on this reasoning, the person who leaked the news to the media must be a third party. Who could it be?
Everyone was deep in thought.
Zhang Sanfeng knitted his delicate brows and said, "Maybe it was them, but what’s their purpose?"
Was it the black hats? But why would the black hats expose Rogers as a fraud? Initially, they all thought the black hats might be colluding with Rogers. If Rogers is a scammer, looking at the situation now, things don’t seem to be as simple as they thought.
"They definitely have an agenda!" Zhan Dapeng, pacing the room, stopped and said decisively.
Zhong Qiaohui looked at them, wanting to know one thing: "The question now is, where is Gu Nuan?!"
Zhang Sanfeng glanced at her anxious expression, a thought on the tip of his tongue but left unsaid. Clearly, someone intentionally leaked this information, and it must be related to Gu Nuan.
Anyway, Rogers certainly suspects that it was Gu Nuan or them who did it.
We could say their move was like killing three birds with one stone.
No, possibly accomplishing much more.
In Duke Philips Castle,
Melissa watched the news on TV, slowly putting down the remote, and turned to her great-grandson standing next to her, "Go call your second uncle."
Anthony saw the bluish tint on the news anchorman’s face on TV, now with a bit of color, nodded, and ran off.
Soon, Zhuang Haoran was pulled by the child into his grandmother’s room.
"Grandma, you were looking for me?" Zhuang Haoran, who was already planning to go to sleep and wearing his pajamas, was surprised to be called at this hour.
That was because he knew nothing of the news. His phone signal had been blocked by his grandmother.
Melissa didn’t speak.
Soon, Zhuang Haoran noticed the news on TV. Since this party was related to Gu Nuan, he focused on listening, and after it finished, he fell silent.
Melissa asked him, "What do you think?" 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Zhuang Haoran replied, "She wouldn’t be deceived. She’s so smart."
"Yes, she’s very smart, I admit. So, I dearly wish that if I had met her earlier, perhaps today, everything might have been different."
Hearing the implications in the Duchess’s words, Zhuang Haoran looked up at his grandmother, "Grandma, you mean—"
Melissa gave a bitter smile. Maybe outsiders who heard this news wouldn’t associate it with her, Duchess Phillips. Therefore, the person who understood the gravity of this matter, and how it pertained to Duke Philips’s castle, was probably only herself.
She had intended to withdraw, having reached some agreement with Rogers. Now, because Rogers’s fabricated scam was exposed prematurely, and at such a critical point, it caused the funds Rogers promised to return to her tonight to evaporate.
