Chapter 73

“I don’t know. Where was Jennifer? Jordan wasn’t at home and she didn’t notify you?” asked Jessica.

The two of them hurriedly rushed out without even having time to call the driver.

Shannon drove, and Jessica sat in the back. She took out her phone and glanced at it.

Shannon said, “I was training the new staff earlier and didn’t check my phone. Jennifer said that about two hours ago, Jordan was picked up by a woman; Jordan said she knew her.”

“She’s a nanny, did she not inform Michael?”

“She did. Michael said it was fine.”

It seemed Helen still had contact with Michael. Since she didn’t appear at Jordan’s birthday party, it was probably because they had come to some agreement.

Jessica said, “This time we definitely have to catch this woman. Roy needs her too.”

The Aitairy case was also connected to the Jills family, and the Jills family was the source. Roy hadn’t caught anyone abroad and suspected that someone had helped them escape back to the country, which was why he returned.

“Back then, your car accident was no coincidence. Aitairy was at its peak then, and Mrs. Wilder was in their way, so they wanted to kill you to threaten her. But unexpectedly, Mr. Green appeared and saved you. Michael was sent abroad at the same time.”

That was right. Jessica only discovered this huge mystery left by her mother after taking over the Wilder Group. For years, a mysterious force had been obstructing the Wilder family’s development. At first, Jessica didn’t suspect the Hall family, but she kept running into members of the Hall family and gradually felt something was wrong. Moreover, Aitairy had already been declining abroad. The Jills family married into the Hall family to save Aitairy. Then the Hall family merged the Aitairy branch company, and Roy wiped them all out. Jessica had long suspected the car accident was no accident. She was always very careful when driving. Even if they had run away to elope, they would never have caused such a big stir.

“Find Helen, and everything will be clear.”

Shannon glanced at Jessica through the rearview mirror and hesitated before saying, “Actually, you’re upset because of Mr. Green, aren’t you?”

“I’ve always been indifferent to Chris over the years because I was afraid that the mastermind would use my concern for him and try to reach out to Chris. But last year…”

Last year, Chris had an incident. Chris stayed at home every day but was still set up.

When Jessica and others rushed back home, they found him… The kitchen gas was still on, and the entire house was filled with… Chris had fallen into a coma, but they couldn’t determine the cause, even if a spark could cause an explosion.

Back then, Jessica was abroad and was supposed to return the next day according to her original schedule, but she wanted to surprise Chris and changed her flight. When she couldn’t contact Chris after landing, she sensed something was wrong and used a code to open the door and rescued him. If she hadn’t come back, she would have returned the next day to find Chris dead.

Someone reaching out to Chris was something Jessica couldn’t tolerate. She could accept competition in business and had even sabotaged others’ projects openly and secretly, but she never used lives as threats. If someone had gone over the line, she naturally fought back.

Since then, Jessica had become increasingly cold toward Chris. If Chris was smart and careful enough, he would understand the key point.

Shannon said, “Later, they found sedative ingredients in Mr. Green’s tea. At that time, your relationship with him was good, and he didn’t need to take any medicine.”
