Chapter 887: What Do You Mean?
--Half an hour later, the two sat in the living room.
When Henry Dales told her that she was almost sold to a sixty-year-old man, Scarlett Yates clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
She was sold to Drunken Dreams by Uncle Thompson and May Denton like merchandise, then auctioned off as a packaged product.
Indeed, they spared her life, but such actions are equally hateful.
If Henry Dales hadn’t saved her, she couldn’t imagine how terrifying her fate would have been.
"Scarlett, what exactly happened?"
Henry Dales noticed her complexion was very bad; initially slightly flushed, her face turned ashen with anger, her whole body trembling slightly.
He had already heard some things about the Saxon Family from others.
Although Scarlett hadn’t told him the whole story of why she appeared here, Henry could somewhat guess.
Scarlett being sold to this place was most likely related to the Saxon Family’s upheaval.
He quietly observed her expression, hesitated for a moment, then softly asked, "Recently, I heard something happened with the Saxon Family, and Roy Saxon and Matthew Saxon’s situation is currently unclear. Scarlett, do you know what this is about?"
Scarlett slowly raised her head.
"Senior Brother Dales, have you heard any news in the last two days? About the Saxon Family?"
She had been unconscious for two days and nights.
She didn’t know if Matthew Saxon had started taking action during these two days.
"Scarlett, what are you referring to?" Henry Dales gazed at her gently, thought for a moment, then said, "Are you asking about Matthew Saxon’s whereabouts?"
Speaking of this matter, Henry Dales furrowed his brow.
He had noticed Scarlett’s expression earlier; when talking about the Saxon Family, her gaze showed subtle changes.
Clearly, she should know some insider details, while he only had surface-level knowledge.
During a meeting, Roy Saxon suddenly fainted, and a spokesperson later said his situation was caused by low blood sugar.
Numerous media reporters went to the hospital to probe for facts but were all turned away, unable to discover anything.
The day after Roy Saxon was hospitalized, a Saxon Family representative claimed their chairman was going abroad for a recuperation period and wouldn’t return to the country for a while.
This news caused an uproar as soon as it was released.
No one would believe Roy Saxon was really going abroad just for recuperation.
If he were going for recuperation, why choose this time specifically?
Low blood sugar is not a major issue; he could recover gradually at home through diet, so why bother traveling abroad?
Moreover, he left discreetly and quietly.
Such secrecy only led to speculation that Roy Saxon might have a severe illness.
Rumors spread wildly for a time.
During those days, the stock price of Seymour fluctuated significantly.
If it weren’t for Seymour’s strong capabilities and excellent crisis management, a smaller company would have gone bankrupt already.
Not long after Roy Saxon went abroad, Seymour’s President Matthew Saxon also disappeared quietly.
No one knew where he went.
First Roy Saxon had an incident, then Matthew Saxon shortly followed; in a short time, both key decision-makers of Seymour vanished from public view, leading to speculation about negative possibilities.
For instance, whether the father and son’s disappearance was deliberately orchestrated by someone?
