If things were not serious, Braden and Anne would not have come to the hotel with wounds all over without treating them first. Shane was very clear about that, and he also knew that Rick wouldn't understand this bond between them, so he reminded him without going into details.

However, Rick was Braden's brother-in-law, after all, so he decided to point it out, "Rick, if things are not serious, will Anne and I rush over looking like this?"

"I'm sorry." Rick massaged his eyebrows. "A lot has been going inside my mind these days. I'm not sure how I can help. But if you need anything, just call me. I'll leave with Kendall first." "Bye bye." Braden waved at him.

As soon as Rick and Kendall left, Braden immediately sat down. He removed the wrapping paper of the chopsticks and started eating. The dishes were quite delicious, but his hand was injured, so it was somewhat inconvenient for him to move. His movements were very sluggish too. "Initially, I wanted to go to the hospital to find a private doctor first. But there is one thing that I have to tell you in person." "Say it."

"Christopher has a fishpeople who works for him, and he's the mastermind behind this incident. I suspect that he's pressuring you guys to take action. Otherwise, he'd destroy Emerson Corporation. After all, the company is a product of Charlotte's parents' painstaking effort. She wouldn't just sit by and do nothing, so..." Braden shrugged and continued, "I just want to tell you as soon as possible so that you won't fall into a trap." "How much money is required to take down Emerson Corporation through illegal means?"

"Around one billion dollars, I guess." Braden kept shoving food into his mouth and said nonchalantly, "Emerson Corporation is worthless, so it's not hard to acquire it through Short sale. But the problem is that if we really acquire it, Christopher will be able to achieve his goal."

Shane remained silent.

Anne, who was beside, added, "Moreover, one billion dollars is only a conservative estimate. I calculated it on the way here. If the value rises, it will be a loss."

"I'll take care of this. You guys keep an eye on Charlotte, don't let her go overboard," Shane said as he picked up his suit jacket and draped it over his shoulders. Only when he was about to find his car key did he remember that Charlotte had taken it.

Braden tossed his car key to him. "Here, use mine."

"Thank you."

"Brothers don't need to thank each other." Braden arched his eyebrows at him and said, "You can use it for the next few days. Anne and I will travel to the neighboring city to look into the fishpeople incident these two days. We just want to go on a trip for a little while."

"Be careful."

"Don't worry. I won't put my wife in danger."

Shane nodded and left.
