When he heard this, Dormer shook his head. He no longer wanted to be bothered about Fade. He waved his hand and said, "Mr. Chen, please go back!"
Leroy also added, "Centro, see Mr. Chen off."
"Dormer, I..." As Fade tried to explain himself, he noticed that Dormer did not give him a chance at all. Hence, he turned around and left.
Left without any choice, Fade and Joey had to leave.
Back in the living room, the Luo family gazed at Fade's back as he left. Borton sighed as he remarked, "Ignorant and arrogant guy. He has offended a hidden family, and yet he claims that he can counter them. How ridiculous."
Sandra added, "Let's see for how long he can remain arrogant. Romeo will be back soon."
On the other hand, Dormer sighed. "What a pity. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to have the nourishing pill."
When he saw this, Borton quickly comforted him, "Father, you don't have to worry about it. Later, I will go to the imperial hospital to find a National Chinese Medical Doctor, and ask if they can help to make a nourishing pill for you."
"Alright!" Dormer nodded and then turned around to walk away.
Outside on the courtyard of the Luo family, Gentro sent Fade and Joey to the car. His tone was extremely apologetic. "Mr. Chen, Joey, I'm really sorry. I didn't expect things to turn out like this. I will definitely find a way to persuade my grandfather to agree."
Fade smiled. "It's fine, It's not your fault. We will think of another way ourselves."
Then, Fade and Joey left.
On the way back to Capital University, Joey remained silent with her head down.
Fade comforted her, "Joey, it's alright. We will think of other ways later and we will definitely be able to find more clues. Worse comes to worst, we can use the old fogey's reputation to help us. It will definitely be effective."
"Yes!" Joey squeezed out a smile as she nodded at him.
In the next few days, Fade tried to ask Gentro about the situation, but he couldn't get through his phone at all. Moreover, Gentro had been absent from school for several days, so he could only set the matter aside.
One day, as Fade was preparing for class, he received a call from the branch of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. "Hello, I'm Fade. What's the matter?"
A somewhat anxious voice came from the other end of the phone. "President Chen, Miss Meng has been away for business for more than half a day and hasn't returned yet. We can't get in touch with her. The manager asked if you want to call the police."
Fade immediately frowned and asked, "We can't get in touch with Yankee? What's going on?"
"A few days ago, the company received a big order from a new customer, saying that he wanted to order one million bottles of our Life Elixir Wine. Moreover, the customer asked Miss Meng to negotiate."
"She went over to negotiate early in the morning. However, it is already in the evening and she has yet to return. We tried to call her but her phone was turned off. We are a little worried, so..."
Fade immediately grew anxious. He quickly asked, "Where did they meet? Who is the customer who placed the order? Send me the details."
"They agreed to meet at a five-star hotel not far from the company. However, when we called and asked, the hotel staff claimed that Miss Meng had left before noon, and it was a young man who left with her. We don't know where she went after that."
