The Bound Between Us

Chapter 440

Julie's call had a clear purpose nudging Grannie Anita into action.

With Herman out of town, the timing was perfect.

Grannie Anita was on her way back to the countryside when she got the call. She immediately told the driver to turn around and head back to Riverdale. Still, she didn't dare go back to Salstrom Manor and opted for a hotel instead. Grannie Anita also phoned Katie, urging her to move forward.

Meanwhile, at Eagle Corporation...

Joseph found Herman's sudden departure from Riverdale suspicious. He called in his secretary. "Find out about Herman's flight from Elysian Technologies. Where did he go? What happened?"

The secretary replied, "Mr. Salstrom, I've already looked into it. There was a factory fire at Elysian Technologies in Shanghai. Two-thirds of their goods were destroyed."

Hearing this, Joseph's senses sharpened. "What kind of goods?"

"New energy car batteries. I heard it caused five deaths. Elysian Technologies is suppressing the news. Should we spread it?"

"No, don't rush to spread the news. Someone else will handle that. Herman won't be able to deliver on time; he'll be desperate and look to his peers for help. We need to buy up all the goods before he does." "But Mr. Salstrom, we don't have enough
