Chapter 1153: Captured Alive (Thanks to the book friend Silver Moon Demon Man for his reward)
In the whole of New York, there is no one else who is a private investigator who does a better job than Jessica Jones, but who can not sell the information of customers, and can hold the important handle of the opponent in a very short time.
Just the day after meeting Ling Xiao, Joey got what she needed most from Jessica Jones, and with this thing, she was sure enough to pull Lawrence and the others down from their current position, and give them a good look.
Joey was strolling along the Hudson River with his dog Turo, and happened to see Ward coming menacingly, and as soon as Ward met, he said angrily: "What do you think, you refused severance pay without consulting me?" ”
"That doesn't mean why you went to Lawrence without consulting me!" Joey glared at Ward very unceremoniously and coldly.
Ward defended, "I could have gotten what we wanted for us, how could you do that to me?" ”
"I'm doing this for you, for both of us." Joey snorted unceremoniously, then she took a deep breath, barely regained her composure, and said, "I know how to take back our jobs!" ”
Ward shook his head helplessly and said, "They've driven us out, Joey, the number of votes on the board has reached the requirements, and we don't have a foothold at all!" ”
Lawrence did not have a problem with this, otherwise, Joey should not be looking for Jessica Jones, but Jerry Hogarth, she nodded, and said, "I don't mean legal loopholes......"
"What else could it be, oh, you're not thinking about Daniel, are you?" Ward couldn't help but laugh, and then he said mockingly, "Use his image as a corporate crusad, use the board of directors to get rid of us because we want to stop poisoning others." But I'm sorry, that's stupid! You can't control him well, and every time he opens his mouth, it will cause you to sink deeper. ”
Joey was not angry at Ward's words, she calmly took out her phone from her bag, opened it, and handed it to Ward.
Ward frowned, took the phone in his hand, and asked puzzledly, "What is this?" ”
"Here's how we go back." Joey glanced at Ward, then sat down on a nearby bench and waited for Ward to finish reading the contents of his phone.
At this time, Ward's face has changed, and if these photos in Joey's mobile phone are transmitted to the media, the scandal involved will definitely pull the stock price of the RAND Group to the bottom.
These photos are taken of the old bastards on the board of directors of the RAND Group prostitution and drug use, as well as Lawrence, who has always been strict with himself, this guy was arrested by the police for drunk driving, and later this time I don't know why the police removed it from the file.
"Oh God!" The worry on Ward's face was swept away, and he quickly sat down next to Joey, and asked excitedly, "Joey, are these true?" ”
"Lucky, yes." Joey basked in the sun, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Half of the board members are stealing the company's money, or sleeping with someone who is not a spouse, or driving drunk, our board of directors is rotten!" ”
Ward slowly calmed down, looked at Joey, frowned and questioned, "You can't have collected so much black material in one night, where did you get it?" ”
"I hired a private investigator some time ago to start the investigation and she definitely got the money's worth...... At least that's when you're not drinking. Joey looked at Ward and said apologetically, "The reason I didn't mention it yesterday was because I wasn't ready for these things, and I wasn't ready to do it." ”
Ward looked down at the photo on his phone and sighed, "I don't know what to say, I can't believe you'd be willing to do something like this." ”
Joey smiled helplessly and said, "I didn't cause us to go down this dead end, I just wanted to find a way out." ”
"Are you saying I have to blame for this?" Ward looked up at Joey, a slight hint of pleading on his face.
Joey touched Turo's back, then looked at Ward and said, "I already know you've been taking more medication for a while, and you seem to have been able to control it well, until recently. So I collected this black material in case it had a negative impact on the RAND Group. ”
"You always felt that it didn't matter, until it affected the RAND Group." Ward shook his head in disbelief and said, "Oh my God, Joey, are you my sister, or my HR representative?" ”
There was a bit of a joke in Ward's words, and Joey breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and then chuckled and said, "To be honest, I don't know!" Ward, when was the last time we talked about things outside of work? ”
Seeing the smile on Joey's face disappear, Ward's face sank as he said, "That's all. ”
"Do you know my last date?" Joey looked at Ward, looked at his brother, and said with some emotion: "I don't know who you're dating, or what book you're reading, or whatever situation you're living outside of the RAND Group, we weren't like that before." One day, you suddenly built a wall of heart, I don't understand why, did I do something wrong? ”
"I'm protecting you." Ward shook his head slowly, and said, "Don't ask why, I won't and can't tell you." In the future, you will know the truth one day, but not now, at least not now. By the way, lend me some money, I've been having some financial difficulties lately. ”
Ward suddenly changed his words, making Joey a little unable to react for a while, and she asked with a surprised face, "What?" ”
At this moment, Joey's cell phone suddenly rang, and she received a text message, which she opened to see that the message was from Skye, and the message on it said that Daniel Rand had taken a plane back to New York and would arrive this afternoon.
When he saw this text message, Joey couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Ward on the side couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”
"It's Danny." Joey smiled helplessly and said, "This guy who has been missing for almost 48 hours finally has news." ”
Since the night before, Joey has been unable to get through to Danny's phone, and according to police regulations, the disappearance can be reported 48 hours later.
"Danny!" Ward was slightly stunned before asking, "Do you know where he's been during this time?" ”
Ward hadn't seen Danny since they parted the night before, and to be honest, he was still a little worried.
"You better ask him about this matter yourself, I still have something." Joey stood up and was about to lead Touro away, when suddenly, as if she remembered something, she looked back at Ward and said, "I'll give you $100,000 in the card, which should be enough for you for a while." ”
"Oh, that's enough, that's enough!" Ward couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, now he didn't have a penny in his account, Harold was very ruthless that night, so that all the money in his account was emptied, and there was a reason why he had to agree to Lawrence's request.
Daniel did return, not only did he successfully return to New York with Colleen and Claire, but he also brought back Mrs. Gao with him.
Who would have thought that Daniel would actually capture Mrs. Gao alive, which Ling Xiao was very surprised, you must know that it was Mrs. Gao, even if Ling Xiao made a move, he was not completely sure that he could capture her alive.
Madam Gao's flying sword, as well as the secret techniques she mastered, although Ling Xiao was sure enough to kill her, but it was much more difficult to capture her alive, and without adequate preparation, Ling Xiao would never make a rash move.
So there is a problem here, Daniel Rand can only kill Mrs. Gao unless he fully explodes with the power of the iron fist, but it is also a head-to-head confrontation when Mrs. Gao is defenseless, and he may not be Mrs. Gao's opponent, there is another mystery in this.
Ling Xiao stopped Skye from rushing to meet with Colleen, and asked Colleen to prepare a report first, and she herself would sink down for a while.
Everything has to wait for Ling Xiao to read the report in detail before he can determine the next move, he still doesn't know whether Mrs. Gao deliberately fell into Daniel's hands to plan for her own conspiracy, or whether the Bo disciple secretly plotted against Mrs. Gao to let her fall into the situation in front of her.
