Contract Marriage With Mysterious President novel Chapter 268

Halbert frowned as he listened to what the two people said. He did not believe something they said, but what they said seemed so true.

"When did you know Miss Newell? And when was your mother ill?" Richard asked.

"We have known Miss Newell for a long time. Be then she was the vice president of the HD Group. However, after she came back, she seems that she doesn't know us. Our mother was ill three months ago. And we don't know why Miss Newell would know our mother's illness and she gave us money. Then she asked us to do her a favor." When one of them finished, he looked at Richard regretfully.

"We do not know what trouble will bring to the HD Group. We didn't check a batch of products, thinking that the HD Group goods were generally qualified, so... Mr. Carter, could you please spare us? It's our fault. It's our fault." They knelt on the ground and cried, but Richard's fists tightened.

"Take them down." Richard was tired. He needed to think about what was going on.

"Are all the workers who made that shipment still here?" Richard asked his men.

"Some of those workers quit, some of them are still there. Shall I take some workers here?" asked the man.

"Well, get some here. I want to see what happened." Richard waved his hand and let his men out.

Rubbing his sore temple, Richard was thinking hard, but he couldn't understand Amy's intention. Was she trying to destroy the Carter Group? But why? Did she have that much of a grudge against the HD Group? But he didn't do anything wrong to her.

"Mr. Carter, Mr. Carter! The old Mr. Carter fainted with anger and was sent to the hospital." Richard was having a meeting when his staff rushed in. It seemed that Halbert's condition was in danger.

"The meeting is over." Richard closed his papers, gave them to his secretary, and walked quickly out.

After Halbert learned that Amy was responsible for all what happened to the HD Group, he couldn't accept it, plus there was something wrong with his head, so he fainted again.

Cathy was so scared that she cried all the way down the road, "What's wrong with the family? Why would it become this bad?"

"The patient can't stand any provocation. I have told you when he was discharged from the hospital last time. His life could be in danger at any moment." The doctors just finished the operation with Halbert.

"Yes, yes, it's all our fault. We shouldn't have made him angry." Cath didn't know what was going on. She said Halbert fainted when he got an email and checked it.

"He had not been out of danger. You can't say anything provocative to the patient." The doctor warned with a straight face.

"Well, all right, we'll keep that in mind." Richard held his mother.

Halbert was lying on a hospital bed, looking pale with tubes intubated all over his body, and was surrounded by two nurses.

"I want to go in and see your father," Cathy said to Richard.

Halbert was now in ICU. They were only allowed to go in and see him once a day.

"Mom, don't go in there. Tell me what happened. Why dad fainted again?" Richard helped Cathy sit down.

Richard was afraid that Cathy could not help crying when she went in and saw Halbert. His mother was always taken good care of by his father, so she was not strong enough to bear any difficulties.

"Your dad was at home chatting with me. Then he got a phone call, and went to the study. And after a while, I heard your dad fall." Cathy didn't have time to see anything and immediately called an ambulance.

"Mom, wait here. I'll go back and check." Richard felt that things were going completely out of control. He always felt that there was a dark hand behind these things, but he still didn't want to believe that it was Amy who did it as there was no reason for her doing so.

When Richard got home, he turned on the computer, but there was nothing on it. What did his father see that made him angry? There seemed to be no one visiting him.

Richard checked Halbert's computer and other things in the room, but there was nothing else he could find. Even the phone number in his phone was temporally used and it was invalid when it was used. So what made Halbert so angry?

Everything was done very stealthily. Richard sat in his father's chair, with his head in a fog.

Richard had to accompany his father when he couldn't find any clue. Well, there were two people in the Carter family injured now. He didn't know who would be the next one to be in the hospital. Carter had such a bad hunch.

Richard looked at the woman sitting across from him. She had been so in love with him, but now she was so strange, so much so that he didn't know what to say.

"What's the matter?" Amy asked Richard coldly.

"Yes." Richard withdrew his eyes. He couldn't control his emotions as soon as he saw Amy.

"What is it?" Even though Amy looked cold, she felt a thrill in her heart when she caught Richard's eye. She couldn't conceal her love for him.

"I want to ask if you have sent money to the HD Group's inspector." Richard didn't want to beat around the bush.

Amy gave Richard a look. His eyes were burning as he looked at her. Had he found out?

"Yes." Amy nodded. She didn't want Richard to know she was doing this. She hated him, but she wanted to help him.

"Did you see Matt some time ago?" Richard asked again.

"Yes," Amy nodded. He legs hurt a lot that day, but she still went to see Matt. He had to get back at him herself.

"That's my purpose for coming to you today. Thank you for coming to see me. But I wonder what I did to you to make you do this to me?" Richard couldn't believe Amy did it. But her confession hurt him.
