The Ex and Her Riches novel (Gwendolyn and Maverick)

“Since we can’t solve this issue by going the right way, let’s make it all go wrong instead. With Channing’s help, things will become much easier without unnecessary restrictions. We can focus on the bigger picture. Besides, Channing himself has children, and after being persecuted by the tainted milk powder incident, he will surely pay more attention to the safety issues related to milk powder,” Cedrick reasoned.

His obsidian eyes darkened. He had already laid out his plan and analyzed the situation thoroughly.

Swain, who had just entered, finally found an opportunity to speak upon hearing this. He looked astonished and said, “Boss, am I hearing correctly? You’re actually going to collaborate with Mr. Kron in business?”

Under necessary circumstances, such cooperation would indeed yield greater results.

However, the formula milk business of Jenson Group was massive. Wouldn’t it be too obvious if everything was handed over to Channing?

If someone caught wind of it, they could exploit the situation.

Cedrick succinctly assured him, “Don’t worry.”

He sat behind his desk and gestured to Neville. “How is the pursuit of the bodyguard who goes by the alias Quintrell?”

Neville shook his head, his face filled with frustration.

Though he didn’t say anything, his expression spoke volumes.

He had suffered a total defeat this time. Despite having two squads of soldiers under his command, he was outmaneuvered by the other side.

“This man still has a few loyal bodyguards following him. I discovered their traces in Lightspring last night, but this person set up traps and managed to escape by chance. Someone saw him appear in Durbaine this morning…”

Cedrick tapped his finger on the smooth and reflective desk. He spoke with a low and deep voice. “Quintrell is just an alias. I suspect his real name is Joe Landon. He has military experience and possesses exceptional counter-surveillance skills. Capturing him is understandably time-consuming and labor-intensive.”

However, Cedrick was relieved that at least there were some leads in the tainted milk powder case.

“The arrest warrant has been issued, and perhaps it will help with your capture mission.”

Few could match Cedrick back in the military district, with Joe being among them. He was an extremely talented man. Hence, Cedrick knew all too well that ordinary police officers were no match for him.
