Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 664: Why her and not you?

The next day...

[Pierson Corporation]

Dean walked to his office in silence. Today was the board meeting, and until then, he had to do some extra work for it. On his way, his assistant welcomed him and fell a step behind.

"Sir," called the assistant, making Dean slow down in his steps. "Mr. Davis might not be able to make it today, he said."

Dean's brow arched as he set his eyes ahead. "And why is that?"

"He didn't say anything else aside from that he had a prior commitment he couldn't cancel."

"A prior commitment?" Dean let out a shallow laugh, sneering. "Did he think I would buy that?"

The assistant didn't respond and simply followed him to his office quietly. It was true that no one would believe Finn's lame excuse. After all, the board meeting of the Pierson Corporation was one of the most important meetings the company held three times a year-except in emergencies.

Everyone always attended it.

Finn might not be a direct member of the board, but he was one of the new partners of the company. Therefore, it was natural for him to attend and have a formal introduction. Finn had known about these months in advance and wouldn't have scheduled another commitment on the same day as the board meeting.

Soon, Dean arrived in his office and turned to face his assistant. He spoke only once the door was closed.

"Find out where he is and what happened to him. It's much better if you check all the hospitals in Anteca or see if he boarded a flight," he ordered without a pause. "William Pierson wants me out, so he might have started breaking my limbs."

The assistant lowered her head and answered sternly, "Yes, sir."
