Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2403: Chapter 1799: The Most Obvious Poisonous Plot (Part 2)

How could this Huaxia person make things sound so terrifying!

Even the onlookers felt a sense of collapse.

Jenny and old John looked complex and uneasy.

They finally had the urge to speak, but were equally afraid of those behind them, fearing that speaking up would also lead to a dead end.

Lei Ying observed their reactions and smiled, ”We don’t need you to confess everything, to reveal all the secrets of those behind you. We know you only know so much. Let’s start with this contract, and only discuss this issue, okay? We can count it as a merit for you and reduce the charges on certain matters.”

Lei Ying first gave them the chance to speak, then asked them to answer a few questions. These non-lethal questions didn’t seem to matter if they spoke, which helped ease their resistance.

However, once people open their mouths, sometimes even if they start with a word, it’s like a dam breaking, and it’s difficult to stop.

”Go ahead, say something, and you’ll spend less time in prison, and have a relatively better life.” Lei Ying persuaded gently.

Jenny and old John nodded their heads slightly, almost imperceptibly, in a dejected manner after a long consideration.

They finally agreed!

Zack and the others were instantly invigorated.

Lei Ying gestured to the people beside him, implying ”You can ask now.”

Then, Lei Ying turned around and walked out.

Zack and the others watched Lei Ying’s departing figure with awe and respect, then quickly got to work questioning Jenny and old John.

...

An hour later, having obtained firsthand information, Lei Ying called Bai Xiaosheng.

”Sheng, it’s done here. Jenny and old John have started talking. Yes, they said quite a bit, but regarding someone of Caroline’s level, they didn’t dare to say anything. Of course, there are some clues. What can be confirmed is that behind General Manager John is the Deputy Executive Vice President of the Africa Division. Whether their Executive President or Business President is involved, is unknown...” Lei Ying reported everything in detail.

”I didn’t expect you to be so quick with your actions!” On the phone, Bai Xiaosheng was somewhat surprised.

Lei Ying immediately laughed, ”Isn’t it because I’ve been learning from you all these years? Even if I have six or seven out of ten of your skills, it’s enough to deal with them.”

These words carried a hint of flattery.

Bai Xiaosheng laughed at once, ”Alright, the matters over there can be handed over to Mr. Wen Yan’s people now, you don’t need to worry about it, just come join us.”

In such a short time, Lei Ying conquered the tough nut. The subsequent matters could be transferred to Wen Yan’s people.

With the breakthrough of Jenny and old John, other issues should also be easily resolved. After all, the remaining people weren’t as tight-lipped as these two.

Bai Xiaosheng was extremely satisfied with how the issue was resolved so swiftly.

After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiaosheng felt relaxed and took a glass of water to stand on the balcony, admiring the night view.

Reflecting on the entire event, Bai Xiaosheng gradually frowned.

”Since Melanie provided the crucial information, the whole thing went surprisingly smoothly, as if someone was pushing it behind the scenes...” Bai Xiaosheng murmured.

Jenny’s visit, carrying important documents, such confidential information, how could it be brought up for discussion, let alone overheard by others.

”It seems someone is using Jenny and old John as pawns!” Bai Xiaosheng pondered.

He suspected from the start that this was Caroline’s handiwork.

But the reason behind it was elusive.

Is it to use these people as bait, to attract my attention, and cover up something more important?

But there were no signs of any other anomalies on my end, Caroline’s move seemed unnecessary.

Was it to deliberately set up a problem targeting Jenny and old John, making me intervene heavily, then prove that they were innocent, and make me, the new monitoring department vice-chairman, look bad at the headquarters, potentially entangling me in a lawsuit and embarrassing me?

Bai Xiaosheng shook his head even more.

From the moment Lei Ying got hold of solid evidence against Jenny and old John, this theory didn’t hold...

What on earth is the reason then?

Caroline, what exactly are you plotting?

Bai Xiaosheng contemplated deeply for a while, but couldn’t grasp any method.

But just as Bai Xiaosheng lowered his head to drink, a burst of insight suddenly struck him.

”Caroline is an extremely clever person. Every time I’ve contended with her, she has always made high-level moves, and I’ve gotten used to thinking deeply. Would she use my habitual thinking as a pattern, to create a shallow plan this time?”

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but narrow his eyes, murmuring, ”I just arrived in the Africa Division and am exercising my new authority vigorously here, dealing with subsidiary companies of the Africa Division, without notifying any of the Africa Division’s leaders. If this was in the workplace, coming to a new department and making a big overhaul is a major taboo. The scene has changed to a higher level, but the principle remains the same. My big actions can make the originally neutral Africa Division’s Business President think! I’ve ignored such... shallow scheming!”

Bai Xiaosheng immediately gave a bitter smile.

It seems that Miss Caroline is indeed an extremely cunning woman, using his thinking inertia to set up the simplest of traps.

Sowing discord.

”But the simplest things are often the most effective!” Bai Xiaosheng frowned.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng obviously couldn’t call the Business President of the Africa Division to communicate.
