Chapter 632 I’m Sorry

Ziyue looked up and saw Muchen gesture for her to come to him.

Thus, she had no choice but to get up and go his way.

"I need you to find Ke and get a document from her."

"Sure," Ziyue answered, but she made no move to leave.

Muchen arched his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did Marni's company start a new brand recently?" Since Muchen was involved in this industry, he would naturally know the recent developments in all the major corporations.

"Why? Are you interested?" Muchen reached out to pull her into his embrace.

But Ziyue moved out of his reach. She was discussing a serious matter with him and was not in the mood to fool around.

Then, she looked at Muchen sternly. "I just heard from Bessalyn that their company had appointed Hanyan as the ambassador for their new brand."

Muchen's usually calm expression briefly froze when he heard that name.

"Hanyan?" Muchen repeated.

It was rare to catch Muchen with such an expression, so Ziyue smiled and said, "It seems she is preparing to return to acting."

Muchen's expression darkened. "Hah, let's see if she dares."

"She dares to return to show business because someone powerful supports her. Just like… when she was able to escape from Mogwin Castle." Ziyue carefully observed Muchen's expression as she spoke, as if trying to decipher something from his reaction.

Unfortunately, she failed.

Muchen would not slip up once he decided to hide something.

However, he also did not mislead her this time.

"Gricy," Muchen replied evenly.

His response left Ziyue stunned. "You knew she joined Gricy?"

Muchen pulled the stunned Ziyue into his embrace but did not answer her question.

However, Ziyue was preoccupied with the matter and cared about nothing else.

"How long have you known?"

"I suspected it since I heard about Hanyan's escape. However, I only confirmed it when I found her later," Muchen answered solemnly.

He knew better than Ziyue the extent of Hanyan's hatred for them.

Although neither side would act rashly against the other for now, Ziyue believed they needed a breakthrough.

"Why does she want to return to acting now?" Ziyue felt they should consider this question.

Muchen caressed her hair and answered, "She was probably ordered to do so by the higher-ups in Gricy."

"What is Gricy up to?" Ziyue frowned and could not understand why they would want Hanyan to become an actress again.

Is it for money and influence? Is there no end to their greed?

Muchen answered, "I don't know."

However, he only said this for Ziyue's benefit. He knew Gricy's insatiable ambition.

Gricy had immense wealth and authority. However, it was human nature to be greedy for more, no matter how much one attained. There was no end to humanity's greed.

When Gricy gained control of a town, they desired a city. Once they attained a city, they dreamed of having the whole county.

Muchen had checked Gricy's movements in the past few years. They seemed to move only in one direction: to keep expanding their influence.

Gricy was already the largest criminal organization in the world. Yet, they wanted to expand their authority and delve into various sectors.

They wanted control over the legal and criminal realms.

Their ambitions were immeasurable.

Moreover, they resorted to robbery and crime to achieve their aim.

Looking at Gricy's uncontrolled growth, Muchen suspected they had colluded with someone in the royal family. Otherwise, they must be connected to someone in the government or someone close to the royal family.

However, he did not tell Ziyue any of this so as not to scare her.

Ziyue regained her senses and recalled his instruction from before. She removed herself from his embrace and said, "I'll get you the document first."

Muchen let go and allowed her to leave.

…

The following day, news about Hanyan's return to show business became the entertainment news headline.

The newspaper even published a full-page article about her.

It discussed her filmography, charity work, and sudden retirement announcement two years ago.

Moreover, other major papers also seemed to have a collective agreement to publish articles about Hanyan.

Ziyue instructed the maid the night before that she wanted to read the newspapers the following morning.

The maid was dutiful and brought the newspapers to her in the early morning. Ziyue saw them when she woke up.

The articles not only talked about Hanyan's past but mentioned her appointment as the ambassador for Bessalyn's company.
