Chapter 71 Value Beauties More than Anything Else
Chapter 71 Value Beauties More than Anything Else
Shortly after Ann returned home, Daisy came over with her lost bag and phone.
Ann was told by Daisy that someone had picked up her phone when she was kidnapped.
Only when that person called Phillip could he get there in time. Ann couldn't help but feel the warmth
and was very grateful to the kind-hearted stranger.
They chatted for a while. Then Ann remembered something and said hesitantly.
"Daisy, you know more about the Moore family and the Moore Group than I do. Can you help me check
out Phillip's information? For example, what did he experience when he was young? I want something
that cannot be found on the Internet."
Hearing this, Daisy looked up and said in a teasing tone.
"Are you interested in him?"
"No! I just want to confirm something."
...
The next day, Ann returned to the company.
When she was eating in the staff canteen, she heard their colleagues discussing at the next table.
It was said that the Moore Group and William Group, which were originally going to be connected by
marriage alliance, had canceled their cooperation, and even the projects they had worked on earlier
were suspended.
When Ann heard this, she stopped eating and thought that those gangsters were instructed by Jennifer
last night. Although she felt that she could not have such a great influence on Phillip, she was still a
little nervous.
In the afternoon, she had been worried about this matter, so she decided to go upstairs and ask about
it.
She knew that the William Group was so powerful that ordinary enterprises did not dare to provoke it.
When she arrived at the office, she was hesitating when she saw Aydan.
Thinking of the relationship between Aydan and Phillip, Ann bit her lower lip and thought perhaps he
knew something.
"Aydan, may I ask you a few questions?"
Aydan was also a little surprised when seeing Ann. Then his gaze became somewhat complicated.
For this woman, his brother had officially stood against the William Group. What a tragedy!
"What do you want to ask?"
"Why did we cancel the cooperation with the William Group...?"
Before she could finish her sentence, Aydan's eyebrows cocked, and he became irritated. "What do
you think it is? Miss Scott, don't you know?"
Was it really because of her? Ann's heart sank.
"Aydan, shut up!"
Aydan and Ann were both shocked when they heard this. Turning around, they saw Phillip standing at
the door of the office with a solemn face.
Phillip coldly glanced at Aydan, then pulled Ann into the office and closed the door.
When Ann learned that she had made the Moore Group and the William Group become enemies, she
felt quite guilty. Furthermore, she saw that Phillip was exhausted from this.
Standing there with her head down, Ann was at a loss.
Phillip pinched his forehead and took a sip of tea on the table.
"You don't have to take his words seriously. We didn't plan to continue cooperating with them. Besides,
I was the one who proposed to cancel the cooperation with the William Group."
Ann looked down at the ground and did not say anything.
She knew that Phillip was just trying to comfort her.
Phillip looked at her quietly, and then he chuckled.
He bent down slightly and looked at her. Under the sunlight, his pitch-black pupils were clean and
beautiful, as if they possessed the power to suck others' souls.
"Ann, in your eyes, am I the kind of person who can sacrifice anything only for beauty?"
Pausing for a moment, he showed a mocking smile. "Or do you think that you have become more
important to me than the whole Moore Group?"
A single sentence easily drove away from the guilt and helplessness in Ann's heart. Her heartbeat was
quick, and there was a dazzling explosion of fireworks in her imagination.
She felt frightened and somewhat unpleasant.
Ann couldn't say anything when he met Phillip. She fled back to her office under Phillip's teasing gaze.
Phillip's words kept echoing in her mind. She knocked on her head and felt a little annoyed.
It was just a joke. She couldn't take it seriously!
At this moment, an App in the lower right corner of the computer screen flashed.
Ann calmed down and clicked it. It was a message from Daisy. Inside was a packed document.
The name of the document was Phillip.
Ann spent a few hours reading the document. After she finished it, her feelings towards Phillip became
even more complicated.
Apart from the rumors saying that he was an illegitimate child, there were also rumors that Phillip had a
car accident not long after he was brought back to the Moore family. Everyone thought that he was
dead at that time, but he survived.
And the mastermind of the car accident was actually the original wife of Phillip's biological father. Her
purpose was to fight for the Moore Group's inheritance.
Before Phillip took over the Moore Group, his life was not as luxurious as outsiders imagined. Instead,
he was trapped in abuse and framing. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
It was also recorded that Phillip had stayed in Clear Water Town for a period of time before returning to
the Moore family.
...
After reading the information, Ann suddenly understood why Phillip was so cold and indifferent.
Anyone who grew up in such an environment would not be warm-hearted.
Reading the car accident recorded on it, Ann remembered the little boy's face when he was a child.
Was it because of the accident that his appearance was disfigured so that he looked different from the
past?
Phillip could really be the little boy.
