Chapter 622
Chapter 622: After she left, Alicia remained alone, pondering the information she had just received.
Reginas visit was intended as a reconciliation, but why did it feel so fraught with tension? What was she feeling guilty about? Alicia thought about Caden, who was currently traveling abroad, and a wave of concern washed over her.
However, with him on a plane, she had no way to contact him.
Once Cadens plane landed, he immediately called Alicia to confirm his safety.
Over the phone, Caden simply said, Take care of yourself, and dont worry about me.
Alicia was too overwhelmed with worry to respond.
Meanwhile, the bodyguard who had hurried to meet him said, Mr.
Ward, the car is ready.
Shall we go to the hospital? Alicia caught this and her eyes flickered.
After the call ended, Caden got into the car, his face unreadable.
He opened his laptop and pulled up the confidential files of Blizzard Group.
The files detailed the shareholder relationships from the companys inception, including comprehensive profiles of each key person.
Ranked third was Gareth Morales, one of Cadens most trusted co-founders working overseas.
Earlier that day, Caden had been informed that Gareth had been shot and was now critically wounded in the hospital.
The bodyguard reported, Gareth was shot at his residence.
The bullet was extracted immediately, and the crime scene was sanitized.
The FBI is involved, but they havent found any significant leads yet.
Cadens face was stern as he asked, How is he? The bodyguard responded, Not well.
The bullet hit a major artery, and hes still in critical condition from the massive blood loss.
If they were fortunate, they might get to see him one last time.
The success of Blizzard Group today was largely attributable to its founding partners.
They were not only indispensable to Caden but also like family.
With Gareth in trouble, the next targets would likely be the other partners, followed by Caden himself.
Caden shut his laptop, a deep weariness settling over him as the sense of impending disaster loomed large.
It felt as if everything around him could shatter at any second.
The car sped down the road, the hum of the engine pushing against the quiet tension.
Caden trusted his medical team there was no doubt in their expertise.
But that wasnt the issue gnawing at him.
He needed to find out who was pulling the strings behind this chaos.
The bodyguards voice broke the silence.
Our team is in position, sir.
We should have answers in three days.
Cadens jaw tightened.
Three days wont be enough.
Theyve hired professionals assassins.
Finding them could take weeks.
We cant waste time and resources chasing shadows.
