As soon as I heard it, I become more worried.
This time, I really had a big problem.
Mr. Liu who was in charge of the project ran away with so much money, so we didn't have enough circulating funds. If I couldn't give them an explanation, I was afraid that it would have a great impact.
However, the funds of the Xi's Group had long been put in the workshop as the operating fund, so there was no money to turnover.
"You're lying! Profiteers!" Just as I was thinking about what to do, a mineral water bottle was thrown at me.
It almost hit me, fortunately, my assistant pulled me aside.
I avoided the bottle, and my face became extremely unhappy.
"The situation here is in a mess. We'd better go back and talk about it."
The assistant pulled me and said with a worried face.
I had no choice but to agree.
I asked them to appease the emotions of the migrant workers and wanted to leave, but these workers were very excited. They surrounded us and hit us with mineral water bottles. When they were about to hit me, more than a dozen cars suddenly surrounded us.
Those workers were probably frightened by this situation. They all stepped back and looked at us with vigilance.
I didn't know where these cars came from. Then the leading car door was opened, and I saw Justin walking out. I was confused.
Why did Justin come here?
"Ashley, you should thank me." Justin walked to me and said in an evil way.
"Why did you come here?"
"I heard that someone is making trouble at your construction site, so I come here to cheer for you," Justin said to me seriously.
As soon as I heard it, my whole face darkened.
Cheer for me? Was he joking?
After taking a deep look at me, Justin raised his hand and snapped his fingers. Then, I saw boxes being carried out one by one.
"Distribute the money to them according to their salary." Seeing that I was shocked, Justin ordered his assistants.
"Justin, what are you doing?"
Justin's assistants opened those leather boxes. I saw so much cash inside and couldn't help asking.
"I lend it to you for the time being. You should pay it back." Justin gave me a cold look and said lazily.
"Thank you." Hearing this, I let out a sigh of relief. Just now, I was thinking about where to raise money.
Because Edward was on a business trip, I didn't want to disturb him. I wanted to solve the problem by myself.
I didn't want to be overly dependent on him.
"You don't have to thank me. Just pay it back to me with interest."
Justin held my hand and said indifferently.
The migrant workers over there had calmed down, and I let out a sigh of relief.
I talked to the person in charge of the project, and asked him to improve the worker's food.
"You're quite vigorous now." Justin looked at me talking with the staff. When I went over, he smiled ambiguously and said to me.
Hearing his words, I just smiled and explained, "Everyone has to grow up. When I took over the Xi's Group alone, I was growing up."
"Ashley, do you feel happy now?"
Justin suddenly turned around and asked me.
"Of course. Why not?" I looked at him strangely and nodded.
"Really?" Justin said softly, and then he didn't speak anymore.
The mask on his face still looked cold and strange. I said, "Justin, how much did you spend this time? I'll give you an IOU, and return it to you later."
"I'll ask the secretary to send it to you tomorrow." Justin turned arrogant and said blandly to me. "Sure." I nodded. Just as I closed my eyes and was about to take a break, I received a call from Scott.
"Ashley..."
"Wuwu..."
As soon as I answered the phone, I heard Scott's hoarse voice, followed by her painful crying.
Scott had always been a very elegant woman. It was rare for her to lose control of her emotions. Did something happen?
"Mom, what's wrong? Don't cry."
"Ashley... I'm sorry..."
"Mom, what happened? Why did you say sorry to me?"
I asked in confusion.
"Ashe...Ashe is missing." Scott's crying voice sounded again, but I was so shocked that the phone in my hand falls to the ground.
Ashe was missing!
Scott was still crying on the phone, but I couldn't hear anything.
My Ashe was lost... What should I do?
