I said this and left Stewart's office with weak legs.
After I left the hospital, I went straight to the factory director's house.
The director was also one of the employees I trusted in the workshop. He was honest and dull. He was forced to lay off by other factories, and his family was very poor. I hired him for my workshop because I knew what happened to him. Because I believed that he would definitely manage my workshop well.
"Boss Mu, why are you here?" When I came to the director's house, he was at home alone. He had a wife, but she had been in the hospital all the time. He worked so hard because of his wife. He was a good person.
"Let's go in and talk." I looked at him and said blandly.
He quickly took out the key and opened the door. He led me into his house. His house was old and shabby, and even the sofa was tattered.
The director took a look at me and smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, my house... is like this. Please don't laugh at me if you feel uncomfortable."
I looked at the director who was embarrassed and shook my head faintly. "No, I won't."
"Are you here to let me quit the job? I'll be responsible for the accident this time. It's all because I didn't manage the whole workshop well..."
"Where did you go last night?" I interrupted his words and said with a deep look in my eyes.
The director had always been conscientious. Apart from the last time he was absent because he was on vacation, he never made such a mistake at work.
"Last night... My wife was suddenly sent to the operating room because she was critically ill. I told Mr. Wang and went to hospital. I didn't expect that there would be a fire in the workshop." The director looked at me and explained with a guilty face.
"That is to say, you asked Mr. Wang to guard the workshop last night." I focused on the key points and continued to analyze them.
"Yes, he is also a very capable person. Boss Mu, I have to take responsibility for this matter."
"Don't talk about this. I'm not going to blame you. All you need to do is to do your job well. Do you understand?"
I got up and said to the director.
He seemed to be very touched that I didn't blame him. He was so excited that his hands were trembling.
"Don't worry. I won't let you down."
"That's good."
I looked at the director with relief, ordered him something and I left.
After leaving the director's home, I went to the workshop. I didn't enter the workshop, I just went to the security room. There was only a new security guard there. When he saw me coming over, he immediately said respectfully to me, "Boss Mu, why did you come here?"
"Where is Mr. Wang?"
"Mr. Wang? He is eating with Mark in the canteen."
Were he and Mark good friends?
Mr. Wang was the leader of the security guards, and he was responsible for managing all the security guards.
"Are they good friends?"
"Yes. I often see them drinking and chatting together. Mr. Wang is a dull person, but he has much to talk with Mark." The security guard seemed to not understand why I asked this, but he answered me honestly.
I didn't expect that they were good friends. Because Mark didn't like dull people.
I said goodbye the security guard and then went to the canteen.
When I went over, there were only a few people in the canteen. I went straight upstairs to find Mark. Someone who saw Mark told me that he liked to eat upstairs.
Last time, I suspected that it was Mark who put those rats in the workshop, and he quarreled with me.
If the fire had something to do with him, I would definitely not let him go.
"Mark, what the hell was going on? I just left for a while, how could there be a fire?"
As soon as I reached the stairs, I heard Mr. Wang's sigh from the left side.
I concentrated, slowly walked upstairs, and came to the back of the screen.
The canteen was separated by screens, so they didn't see me.
"It was something unavoidable. We couldn't stop it."
"It was you who was guarding the workshop last night. Did you see any suspicious people?"
Mr. Wang asked Mark again.
It seemed that Mr. Wang left the workshop for something, so he asked Mark to guard the workshop.
If it was Mark who guarded the workshop...
My eyes turned cold.
If it was Mark who guarded the workshop, did the fire have anything to do with him?
"No, it was an accident. Someone didn't do it on purpose. How could there be suspicious people? Well, this is not something we should worry about."
"Then I'll go first. Alas, so many things were destroyed. I'm afraid that Boss Mu is so worried now."
When I saw their intimate movements, my face darkened.
Could it be that Mark and Betty were lovers?
I couldn't help but think about it in this way. Betty was so awful, how could she like Mark?
"I have given you so much money. You'd better keep your mouths shut. If I'm over, you will also be over with me." Betty suddenly pushed away Mark's hand angrily and sneered at him with a cold face. "Humph, do you think we're in your way now? If you have the ability, you can deal with Ashley by yourself." Hearing Betty's impatient words, Mark was unhappy, and he sneered at Betty.
Betty was angry with Mark's words. She glared at Mark and said in a colder voice, "What else do you want? You know how much money I have given you these years. If you ask me for more money, I don't have any. If my identity is exposed, you are also in trouble. Do you want to live a rich life? Do you want to take lots of money to gamble in Aomen and play with women? Dream on."
"How could your identity be exposed? Ashley doesn't know anything now, and the people who know about this matter are all dead. As long as we don't say it, Ashley will never know about it."
"I'm worried. Ashley will remember something one day. Even if she doesn't know her antecedents, she will definitely remember what happened when she was 12 years old. At that time, she will know..."
"Edward is dead, so what? Even if she knew that it was she who saved Edward at the age of 12, it doesn't matter." Mark Mu said indifferently.
"Idiot." Betty looked at Mark disgustedly and shook her hand, "If Ashley knows this, she will definitely not let me go. At that time, there will be other things involved. She will be aware of other things. No matter what, I can't take the risk. You should solve her as soon as possible. I will not only make her unable to live in Beijing but also I want her to live a life worse than death..."
It was me who saved Edward at the age of 12? What did it mean? I couldn't listen to them any longer. Mark and Betty talked so much, I only remembered this.
Betty said that the person who saved Edward at the age of 12 was me?
What did she mean?
Why didn't I have any impression of it?
"You...Why are you here?"
My appearance scared Betty and Mark. They looked at me as if they had seen a ghost.
"Tell me, what do you mean by what you said?" I stared at Betty and Mark and said coldly.
What on earth did they hide from me?
Why didn't I remember what happened when I was 12 years old?
"You're insane, I don't know what you're talking about." Betty was obviously a little guilty. She raised her voice and said to me angrily.
I heard Betty's words, and there was a coldness in my eyes.
I looked at Mark and said, "Mark, the fire in the workshop was set by you."
"Ashley, don't slander me! The fire in the workshop has nothing to do with me. If you have the ability, just take out the evidence. If you don't have the ability, don't talk nonsense!"
