Chapter 174


As soon as Joshua stepped out of the car, the driver respectfully informed him, "Sir, Thomas just called and said he urgently needs to reach you, but your phone seemed to be off."

Joshua quickly masked the gentleness in his eyes and ended the call with Allison. Almost immediately, Thomas' call came through.

A chilling light flickered in Joshua's eyes, his voice as cold as ice. "Thomas, if you don't get to the bottom of this within five days, you know what will happen."

Thomas replied fearfully, "Yes, sir..."
