Chapter 656 Killing Two Birds With One Stone

Azure was skeptical of Christina’s words. To prove she hadn’t made a mistake, she immediately dialed Barnaby’s number, only to find that his phone had been unreachable.

Unwilling to give up, Azure summoned Chandler and asked, “Did something happen to Old Mr. Stone? I haven’t been able to reach him on his phone.”

The butler, who had just spoken to Barnaby, knew that there was only one reason why no one answered the phone: Barnaby was ignoring her on purpose.

He replied calmly. “Perhaps he’s busy.”

Since Barnaby was on vacation, he had left Stone Corporation in Sheridan’s hands. No matter how busy Barnaby was, he could definitely still spare a moment to answer her call.

Although Azure was almost convinced by what Christina had said, she couldn’t give up completely without having witnessed it personally first.

“Deliver a message to Old Mr. Stone. I wish to meet him in person.”

“All right. I will convey your message as soon as possible.”

“That’s not enough. I must meet him latest by tomorrow.”

“I will do my best. I suppose you understand Old Mr. Stone’s temperament well. He dislikes others disturbing him during his vacation.”

He actually thinks that I’m being unreasonable?

Azure’s frustration caused a pang in her heart. However, she couldn’t afford to have a falling out with Barnaby’s subordinates at this point.
