Love’s Cunning Ruse

Chapter 209

Julie stared at the photo. The man in the picture was indeed Lucian, and according to Julien’s investigation, the plane was purchased by a mysterious buyer from

London…

“Do you think the person who bought the plane could be Lucian?” Julie asked.

And that was exactly the question Kieran was pondering.

Looking at Kieran’s thoughtful expression, Julie said, “After Lucian’s plane crash, Simvar Co. was up to its eyeballs in debt, right?”

Even though Julie didn’t care about Kieran’s work, she wasn’t unaware of such big problems the company had faced. The company of the Hernandez family used

to be Simvar Co.

After Lucian’s plane crash, the shareholders of Simvar Co. came out of the woodwork. It was only then that Kieran found out that under Lucian’s management, Simvar Co. had racked up a whopping financial deficit.

The reason Lucian boarded that plane was to tackle the company’s financial deficit.

But the accident on the plane didn’t be expected. After Lucian’s accident, Simvar Co. plunged into a severe crisis. All responsibilities fell on Kieran.

All the shareholders demanded Kieran – on behalf of the Hernandez family to give them a decent explanation.

It was not until Kieran had the books checked that he realized Simvar Co. had been in the red for over a year. Later, a group of old-timers launched a business war in the company.

Simvar Co. was torn apart. Kieran resigned as the CEO accordingly.

All this showed that, most importantly…

Later, he established Simpo Co., and only then managed to buy back Simvar

Even if Lucian’s plane crash was premeditated, even if Lucian survived that accident, he could only start afresh penniless.

If Lucian was the mysterious rich man who bought the plane in London back-then, where did he get the money?

Even if the plane wasn’t Lucian’s, based on this photo, Lucian surely had a close connection with the plane’s owner.

So, what on earth had Lucian been up to all these years since he disappeared?

These were the questions Julie was wondering about, and they were also the questions Kieran had contemplated.

Looking at Kieran, Julie asked, “Have you been looking for Lucian all these years?”

Kieran took Julie’s hand and sat down by the bed, nodding, “When I reappeared in your life a while ago, when Bertha committed suicide by jumping off the building, I had just tracked him down.”

“If Lucian didn’t have a solid background all these years, he couldn’t have stayed off the radar for so long under your and Hayden Simson’s scrutiny, right?” Julie said.

I’m just a gofer in the legal department, not even a full-time employee. I only signed the contract with Creative Nexus Media before, but never with Simpo Co. So, if we can get the Creative Nexus Media stuff sorted tomorrow morning, I want to head back to Accolade Law Firm in the afternoon.” “You just go straight to the company and quit tomorrow, then go to Accolade Law Firm to wrap things up. I’ll pick you up at Accolade Law Firm after I get off work in the afternoon.” Kieran suggested.
