Chapter 572
Chapter 572
It was said that a soldier was the most handsome type of man of all. Thaud didn't agree before, but at that moment, he felt that Lenold was really handsome. Unfortunately, Thaud was not skillful enough, so he had to be academic.
Otherwise, he would not be a lawyer. It was also a good thing to be able to speak well. At least, he could travel around the world with a glib tongue. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Lenold stopped and wiped his body with a towel. "Go ahead. What's the matter?"
"Take a look at this." Thaud handed the materials to him with a straight face, which was completely different from the expression he showed just now.
Lenold took it over in confusion and looked at the words on it. He quickly understood and said with a smile in his bright eyes, "You want me to send someone to find this person?"
"Your men are more qualified to do so."
"No problem. I'll call them now," Lenold agreed and took out his phone to make a call. Sitting on the sofa, Thaud listened to him until the call ended.
"Lenold, thank you for your hard work." "You're welcome. You're doing it for my good. In fact, I've thought about Diana a lot these few days. How did she become like this? I haven't figured it out yet," Lenold responded in a deep voice. He rarely stayed at home, so he knew too little about the family's affairs. However, as for the matter with Diana, he had always treated everyone equally and did not think too much about it.
Thaud was silent for a moment and said coldly, "Diana has always felt that she's not a member of this family. Although I always thought that our relationship was fine, it wasn't fine at all,"
"I've never seen that side of Diana before when I was locked up. She treated me like a stranger," Lenold would never forget the hatred in her eyes.
Although he was not at home, he knew very well that his father and mother were not the kind of people who treated her poorly. He couldn't understand why things would turn out that way.
However, Thaud didn't agree. He didn't have a good impression of Diana since he was a child. In his mind, she was a villain. She claimed that she was pitiful and innocent, but she always had dirty thoughts in her heart.
"You'll be able to avenge yourself if you find her. Don't think that I'm cruel. I wanted to kill her when she took your shares away. Lenold, you've lived in the army for so many years. You should know what it means to be kind to others who don't
deserve it."
Of course, he understood his intentions. Otherwise, he wouldn't have called people directly to find Diana.
The feelings he had for her as a sibling had vanished completely.
On the other side, Diana went out to buy something, wearing a mask. When she got back, she found that there were several people sneaking around. She realized that something was wrong, so she turned around and went out, hiding in a secluded corner and observing these people.
When the sky turned dark, a group of people rushed in to look for her but there was no one in the room.
The group of people looked at each other helplessly. They had to head back to report. At that moment, Diana was already in a villa in the suburbs, sitting leisurely on the sofa.
"You are smart enough to know that someone is looking for you."
"It's not that I'm smart, it's just a coincidence. I saw you when I went out to buy something, so I called you." Diana could only say that she was lucky to not be found.
Wilson glanced at her and couldn't help thinking about how lucky she was. He stood up, looked at her, and said, "You can live here in peace. Someone will settle your needs. Don't walk around for the time being,"
She nodded. She knew what would happen once others found her, so she stayed where she was.
Wilson immediately left the villa. When the secretary saw the scenario, she couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Godfrey, is this really alright?"
"It won't benefit me if Diana is gone. Now that the Godfrey family's power has not recovered, we need her money."
The secretary did not say much and drove away.
Lenold received a call, and was informed that there was no trace of Diana. He assumed that she had already run away.
When Cecil heard the news, she was furious. If Diana ran away, it meant that their whereabouts had been exposed.
"Have you investigated Wilson's industry?" Lenold remembered that the previous document clearly stated that someone from the Godfrey family had contacted her. Except for Wilson, no one had the guts to come into contact with her.
"I'm going to find Wilson." Upon hearing this, Thaud stood up to look for him.
However, he was stopped by Cecil. "Calm down. Wilson won't admit it even if you go to him now.
Besides, you don't have any evidence for this matter. Do you think you can solve it with the information given by Theodore?"
Cecil's words made him calm down. Once Diana knew about it, she must be on guard. It was even more difficult to investigate her whereabouts.
Lenold and Thaud remained silent for a long time.
On the other side, Everleigh had already heard of this matter from Theodore. She was very surprised. "Is Wilson crazy?"
"He's doing this for Godfrey Group. At the very least, the Godfrey family has eased up quite a bit. The compensation project can also be slowly used to get the money back." He could see Wilson's intentions. Without the funds, how could he possibly save the money that he had lost before?
Everleigh once again praised the businessman's tactics. He did everything he could.
On the other hand, Xavier ignored what he had heard.
Madison was exasperated to see him like this. "You're not going to do anything about it?" She had more or less heard about the incident involving Wilson.
He was a complete villain.
Xavier slowly raised his head and glanced at her.
"Don't you know what's going on with me right now? Even if I go find him, what can I do?"
Her expression froze and she opened her mouth, but she was unable to say a single word.
It was not that he didn't want to take back the company, but he had to take care of himself. Otherwise, no matter how much he thought about it, things couldn't be changed.
Unfortunately, Madison had always wanted to win back Godfrey Group, but she completely overlooked Xavier's health. She kept saying that she loved him, but in the end, she didn't care about Xavier at all.
He sensed her intentions. Loving him was an excuse to go against Wilson.
Sometimes, he couldn't help sighing. They were both parents, but why was there such a huge gap between them? He always thought that they loved him, but in the end...
"If you don't have anything else to do, go back and rest. I'm very tired now." He didn't want to talk to her anymore.
Realizing that what she had said was wrong, she did not stay any longer. She turned and walked out.
After she left, Everleigh came in. In fact, she deliberately avoided Madison after the nurse saw her. She didn't want the conflict between them to put Theodore and Xavier in a dilemma.
Xavier looked at her and laughed out loud. "Are you avoiding her?"
"Then when can I be discharged?"
She sighed softly and said, "Maybe in a month. I know that you are worried that your father is still fooling around in Godfrey Group, but you have to understand your own situation clearly. Life is more important than the company. You should always take that into consideration,"
He chuckled. What she said was really interesting.
However, it was not reasonable.
A month passed. When Xavier was discharged from the hospital, he went to take a look at Madison. Her illness was severe, and her thin appearance made people feel terrible for her. A few years back, she was full of noble temperament, but now, she looked like an ordinary patient, which made people feel distressed.
She looked at Xavier, who was being pushed in by the caretaker in a wheelchair. Her dim eyes shone brightly. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm going to leave the hospital today. You will be treated well here in the future. Don't lose your temper again." His voice was hoarse, he could feel the concern in his mother's tone.
Her entire body shook as she listened to her son's words. Tears instantly flowed down her cheeks. "Fine, I'll listen to you,"
Without saying anything, he turned and pushed the wheelchair out.
Theodore waited for him at the door. When he saw him coming out, he personally came over to push him away.
"Mom still loves you a lot. A few words from you are more meaningful than a bunch of words from me," Theodore's deep and cold voice came from above. Xavier sat on the chair with a smile on his lips. "Are you jealous? Isn't Wilson concerned about you?"
"They're both too extreme. Among the Four Great Families, the most harmonious families are the Meyer family and the Hayes Family. The Godfrey family will only fight among themselves." Theodore had noticed the harmony in the Meyer family through Felicia's incident.
Xavier pursed his lips and remained silent. In the past, he had been resentful that Theodore could get everything. He even thought that he would abandon his parents who had crippled him.
However, after this incident, he realized that he and Theodore were both pitiful people. People who always said that they would fight for them ended up stabbing them in the back in the end.
There was nothing he couldn't let go of.
Theodore sent Xavier back to the villa in North District. This used to be the place where Madison lived, but it was taken away by Yvonne. Now, he had taken it back.
"This villa..." Xavier couldn't help but ask as he looked at the villa that he was familiar with.
"Yvonne is dead. I brought back a lot of things at that time. You can rest assured. The public transport here is very well developed. If you need anything, you can call at any time."
"You know how to take care of others. Everleigh is very thoughtful," Xavier said coldly. Theodore was not the type who was considerate to others.
He didn't mind at all. This was indeed Everleigh's idea. She asked him to find a quiet place with good public transport.
In case of any emergencies, he would not be delayed.
Theodore spent the entire night talking to Xavier about the current situation of Godfrey Group. However, he didn't mention that most of his people had been wiped out.
Xavier observed the current situation. He pursed his lips and didn't say anything. He was deep in his thoughts.
"You have to rest early. I'll think of a way myself," he said after a long time. Theodore didn't seem to mind either. He stood up and went to rest. As he closed the door, he said, "I'll have Yantsey stay behind to take care of you. His ability isn't any weaker than Sean's."
The next day, Xavier went to Godfrey Group when Theodore left. He didn't know if Wilson was aware of his current situation.
When Xavier appeared at Godfrey Group, the people at the front desk were all waiting for him. Their eyes were filled with shock. He saw all of their expressions, but he did not respond to them. He told Yantsey to push him up to Wilson's office.
When Wilson saw Xavier, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. He couldn't believe it. He heard that Xavier had been pushed into the operating room many times, and that his situation was severe. He couldn't believe how he had made a fast recovery.
Xavier saw the surprise in his eyes and smirked. "Mr. Godfrey, it seems that you're very surprised to see me, right?"
"When did you wake up?" Wilson asked coldly.
"Is it important?" Xavier retorted. It didn't matter anymore.
Wilson sneered. It was not important after all. He got up directly from the office chair, walked to the front, and looked at him from above.
Xavier couldn't do anything about his demeanor. He was in a wheelchair, and could only be looked down upon; he had to look up to everyone.
"Yantsey, step out first," he said in a deep voice.
Yantsey was a little worried, but seeing the determination in his eyes, he could only give up the idea in his heart and walked out of the office, leaving the room empty for them.
"You're here to ask for Godfrey Group, aren't you?" Wilson said directly.
"I'm not here to ask as it belongs to me. You took it away, Wilson. If Grandma was alive, she would never let you step in," Xavier said with resentment.
Wilson chuckled, "Your words are unreasonable. That was when she was alive, but now, it means nothing. What right do you have to say this in front of me?"
"You did something in private to hurt Godfrey Group. What rights do you have to sit in this position? For the sake of this piece of land, you couldn't wait to lose the entire Godfrey Group. Wilson, are you too shallow to only focus on the interest that lies in front of you?" Xavier directly accused him of his mistakes and glared at him with anger in his eyes.
However, it was not important to Wilson.
