Reading the title alone, I felt like a ticking time bomb exploding right in front of me!
I hurried to the front of the computer and moved the mouse.
And I began to scroll down the news page.
There lay a photo below.
Unexpectedly, the photo showed that Patrick held Glenn in his arms on the engagement banquet of Shelton and me back then.
Moreover, the photo highlighted the fact that Patrick was similar to Glenn.
Then, there was another photo below.
Seeing this photo, I couldn't help but gasp in shock.
It was a photo of me and Patrick.
Looking a little blurry, the photo showed that Patrick held me in his arms on a wide road without no one around us amid heavy rain.
I looked at the photo carefully. Unexpectedly, it was a picture of me when I had just arrived at City Y!
"Had someone been keeping an eye on me as soon as I arrived in City Y?" "If it weren't Patrick, who could it be?"
I sat there, feeling confused in my mind. After I thought about it randomly for a while, a name emerged in my mind.
Roger Newman.
Roger once said that he wanted to mess up the Cowell Family.
In the case, he would get what he wanted by doing so!
After I read the news, my heart was beating wildly!
Oh my god! At this moment, what I feared most was that both Glenn and Ned would be hurt!
At Ned's age, he surely couldn't withstand this sort of provocation.
I took the cell phone out of my pocket and looked at the cell phone screen. For a moment, I didn't know who I was going to call.
Should I call Patrick? No way.
What was the use of calling Shelton?
Should I call Ned? No way.
After thinking for a while, I dialed a number and called Roger instead.
Ever since the last time, I saved Roger's phone number.
Soon, Roger's joyful voice came over the phone, "Hey, isn't that Mrs. Cowell speaking? What makes you call me today?"
He had been deliberately calling me Mrs. Cowell.
I guessed that this matter surely had something to do with him.
I said, "Ask your people to remove the news."
"Hmm? What are you talking about?" Roger seemed to be drinking water. It wasn't until he swallowed the water in his mouth that he raised his voice, "Oh, you are talking about that. Am I wrong, Mrs. Cowell?"
This time, Roger emphasized the title "Mrs. Cowell".
I was very angry, saying, "In fact, your behavior has no effect on either Patrick or Shelton. They are running companies. So the stock price fluctuates at most and will be back to normal soon. However, Grandpa Cowell is old. And he can't stand these!"
"Well, that's right. I want that old thing to die as soon as possible."
Roger said as-a-matter-of-factly.
His words made me feel a chill on my back. And I asked, "Your purpose is Grandpa Cowell, right?" "Yes, ignore Patrick or Shelton. After all, I can't ruin the Cowell Family. I want Ned to die of anger." Roger paused and continued, "Miss Nolan, I guess you don't know how to use the recording function on your cell phone."
"Recording?"
"Oh yes! I can record our convesation with my cell phone!"
However, I indeed didn't know how to do it.
I admitted it, "Yes, I don't know how to. But you are so young. What hatred can you hold against Grandpa Cowell?"
Roger wasn't even as old as Patrick.
When Roger started to hang out in the business field, Ned should have given up his position.
