Not One, But Two!

Chapter 249

"Hold on. I'm going to make a call." Greg didn't go to rest, either. When he heard Abigail mention Philip's name, he had already asked someone to investigate the matter. However, there was still no news for them at this moment.

As for Abigail, she originally wanted to stop him. However, she immediately stopped herself from doing so when she thought that although Greg might appear easy to talk to, he was actually a grounded person. Therefore, she decided to wait. Nevertheless, deep down, she still felt a little more sorry and bad for Greg.

Soon after, Greg returned.

"I've got something. According to my investigator, the reason Philip got arrested was very simple. It was Jonathan's doing. But for some reason, he doesn't want to get bailed out now. So do you want to go and visit him instead?"

Philip didn't wish to get bailed out was something rather beyond Greg's expectation.

Similarly, Abigail was stunned too, when she heard that Philip didn't want to get bailed out.

He wants to keep staying inside? What does he mean by that?

Did Philip get knocked so badly to his knees that he wants to spend the rest of his life in the detention center?

Thoughts ran through Abigail's mind as she was feeling a little incomprehensible about the intention behind Philip's action. However, she still felt a little bad after she saw Greg looking tired.

"No rush. He's in the detention center anyway, so he can't escape. We can visit him anytime. But you—you haven't rested all night. Will you get some rest already? We'll discuss this matter again after you wake up from your sleep."

Abigail's words warmed Greg's heart. Despite feeling as warm as life, he still sighed when his gaze shifted to the contract and documents in front of him. "Trust me. I also wish to rest, but I have to deal with these matters first."

"Is Benjamin still sick?"

Abigail heard that Benjamin was sick. Therefore, she couldn't help but ask when she couldn't spot him today.

Upon hearing that, Greg felt upset.

"Sweetheart, shouldn't I be the one you should be concerned about?"

"I am! I'm concerned about you. Think about it. If Benjamin is here, you can just leave these matters to him. Now that he's not here, do you have other assistants who can help you? If not, how about your deputy CEO? You're not the only employee in this entire company, so how can you work around the clock by yourself like this?"

Abigail didn't notice the upsetting tone in Greg's words. Nonetheless, her words did make Greg grin happily.

"Yeah, you're right. I'm not a machine, so why are they pushing all the work to me?"

With that, Greg immediately used the intercom in his office and called his two deputy CEOs to make a trip to his office.

Upon receiving the call, the two deputy CEOs thought they had done something wrong. In a swift, they headed to Greg's office. Jittering in fear, they carefully opened the door and entered the office, only to be stunned when they saw Abigail. However, Abigail paid no attention to them like they were some sort of invisible men while sitting on the sofa on one side, playing with her phone.

Pushing the workloads in front of him forward, Greg casually put his legs up on the table. With an idle demeanor, he said, "I'll be busy in these two days, so I will need your help to deal with these affairs."

Upon hearing that, the two deputy CEOs looked at the documents in front of them with speechless expressions painted across their faces.

"Mr. Buckley, we would like to, but only you have permission to access these files. We—"

Before they could finish saying that, Greg quickly cut them off by saying, "It's fine. I'll just ask the secretary to switch it up a little. I'll grant you two the authority to fully handle these affairs."

At this rate, Greg nearly didn't directly blurt out and told them that he was going to literally be an arm-flinging shopkeeper.

In the meantime, the two deputy CEOs looked at each other and silently wept in sorrow. Mr. Buckley, are you trying to take our lives? They wanted to complain about the potential chances of death resulting from the sudden increase in workload, yet they didn't dare to do it in front of Greg. After that, they looked at Greg's cupid-struck state to learn that there was nothing that they could do to stop a man in love.

Leaving with no choice, they could only take the order. "Yes, Mr. Buckley." Then, the two of them eventually took the documents and went out, feeling bitter.

Greg instantly felt carefree. Looking at Abigail with a smile, he said, "Shall we go back home to rest? I don't feel comfy sleeping in the
