Xia Wan’an held onto the door handle, her fingertips applying a slight pressure. She turned her head to look at Han Jingnian sitting inside the car. Perhaps due to the streetlights shining into the car, his complexion appeared overly pale.
Xia Wan’an gazed at him for a mont, ultimately remaining silent. She pursed her lips, closed the car door, and went inside the villa.
Once the villa’s lights were on, Zhang Te started the car and drove away.
On the way, Zhang Te finally voiced the thoughts he’d been harboring but had no chance to express due to Xia Wan’an’s presence, "President Han, what do you think about tonight’s event?"
Han Jingnian didn’t respond.
Zhang Te spoke up again, "It’s evident that Gao Lin fell into Mada’s trap. But Secretary Ai, do you really believe she has nothing to do with this?"
"Even though Secretary Ai presented a record of purchasing counterfeit goods from Taobao, I could tell that her necklace and shoes were genuine."
"Furthermore, despite the excessive words that Gao Lin said to Mada, Mada seemingly had no intention of contending with Gao Lin. Instead, she changed the subject midway, spoke about Miss Song, and claid there’s no one with the sa na as Miss Song in our company... this is obviously a hint for Gao Lin. So, I guess Gao Lin relentlessly criticized Mada because of Secretary Ai’s manipulation; her plot likely involved using Miss Song’s na."
"And Mada clearly knew about it all along... She maintained her composure only to make Gao Lin attack Ai Jiang and keep her own hands clean..."
"So, it turns out, Mada is the darkest big BOSS!"
Han Jingnian opened his eyes to look at Zhang Te.
Zhang Te hurriedly clarified, "President Han, when I said Mada is the dark big BOSS, I an to praise her for being clever!"
Han Jingnian closed his eyes again.
Zhang Te carried on, "President Han, do you rember when we were in Hong Kong for business, and Secretary Ai called to inform about Mada’s marriage? Now it seems, Secretary Ai has been targeting Mada all along..."
At this point, Zhang Te resud, "By the way, President Han, earlier Secretary Sun called . She said she thoroughly checked the docunts when she ca to the hospital and did not miss anything. She also ntioned that when she had to use the restroom before leaving the office, Ai Jiang kindly helped her carry those docunts..."
Han Jingnian, on hearing this, opened his eyes again.
So, Ai Jiang ca to the hospital with ulterior motives?
Three seconds later, he finally spoke up, "Let her go."
Back at Beijing Hotel tonight, Zhang Te had already predicted the likely outco for Ai Jiang.
Whether Ai Jiang collaborated with Gao Lin or not, according to his understanding of President Han, anyone under suspicion would not be kept.
However, just to be sure, Zhang Te asked for clarification, "Go? Do you an to dismiss her?"
No one answered.
While driving, Zhang Te attempted again, "President Han?"
The car remained silent.
Zhang Te instinctively glanced back and noticed Han Jingnian had collapsed onto the back seat.
Zhang Te quickly hit the brakes. When the car stopped, he rushed out and hurried over to Han Jingnian, "President Han! President Han!"
As he called out, he extended his hand, touching Han Jingnian’s forehead. It was alarmingly hot.
Getting closer, Zhang Te faintly heard Han Jingnian mumbling sothing.
He leaned in, listening closely for a while, until he finally made out what he was saying, "Wan’an... villa... villa...
