My Cold Ex-Wife Refused to Move On novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175 Dangerous Connections

“Based on what you know about Alfred, where do you think Henry would keep someone? Mario asked Aimee.

Aimee thought for a moment. “At Moses Group, Alfred had an entire floor just for keeping people locked up.”

Everyone looked shocked. Aimee nodded. “Yeah, that’s right–an entire floor. All kinds of rooms inside. When I was investigating, there were over a dozen people being held there.”

But that had been overseas. This was Gennemont. Locking someone up wasn’t so easy here; evading criminal investigations was even harder. Aimee hadn’t been back in the country long, and she honestly couldn’t figure out where Henry would keep someone now.

Which was exactly why Waylon had been desperate to get ahold of Wendy.

Among all of them, the only person who could be said to truly understand Henry was probably Wendy. And she’d gone up into the mountains, where the signal was spotty at best.

“When’s Wendy coming back?” Caesar asked.

Chase kept his eyes on his phone. “She said four or five days. Once the visiting experts leave the country, she’ll bring her project team back. But with all the rain up there lately, the signal’s been terrible.”

While Caesar was deep in conversation with the others about Henry, Mario was the one keeping an eye on Aimée.

Aimee had gotten used to her cousin–in–law by now–especially since she’d officially joined Typhoon Corp. Most of her tasks had to be coordinated through Mario, who oversaw the majority of the company’s operations.

She got why the Meyer family had it out for Mario–he was just too good at what he did. Good enough that they were starting to worry he might end up running Typhoon Corp himself and shove the Meyer clan out for good.

Judging by his relationship with his brother, though, their concerns seemed overblown.

“I’m done eating. I need to get back and check on their setup. You all carry on. If there’s any update on Wendy, let me know.” Waylon stood, bracing one hand on the back of Lemon’s chair. He leaned down and added, “The weather’s been bad lately; tell the driver to take it slow.”

Lemon nodded sweetly.

No matter how fierce Lemon was in the entertainment industry, in front of her brother, she was always a soft, delicate girl. Even dating had to pass through his approval.

As soon as Waylon left, Lemon wiped her mouth and said to Chase, “I’m dating Noah.”

Chase went quiet.

Everyone froze for a beat.

Chase instinctively looked over at her.

Mario chuckled. “How come this never leaked? What’s Typhoon Corp entertainment department doing napping on the job?”

Aimee silently mourned her coworkers.

She didn’t work in the entertainment division. She was in the international department, handling major global stories as a dedicated correspondent.

Typhoon Corp didn’t make its name in showbiz media anyway–they never focused on just one beat.

Lemon checked her reflection in a mirror. “Noah’s not that well–known domestically yet, and I’ve been keeping a low profile. Didn’t want my brother catching on. He doesn’t like people in the entertainment business, and I haven’t figured out how to break it to him.”

Because of Waylon’s influence and Lemon’s ability to generate profit, she had avoided the fate of being forced into a business marriage.

But as one of the Fred family’s heirs, she still couldn’t date just anyone.

Even if it wasn’t an arranged match, her partner still needed to bring something valuable to the family.

If Noah were as high–profile as Patrick, it might’ve been easier.

“Then wait a bit. Isn’t Noah working on a new project?” Chase asked.
