CEO's Dumb Bride

Chapter 171 Scheme

Chapter 171 Scheme

The man was confused, "Why? He has no reason to do this. He is now the only son of the Landau family, and the entire Landau Group will be his in the future. What is his purpose in doing this?"

"Only son?" Johnson sneered, "Are you saying this to me? I'm afraid he already knew something."

The man sighed.

"Let's stop here." Johnson hung up the phone and walked out quickly.

On the way out, he saw Francis's car. The car was parked quietly on the road with its lights still on, seemingly waiting for him.

Johnson walked over and saw Francis sitting inside through the car window.

Francis put his arm on the car window, holding a cigarette between his fingertips, and his collar was casually open, looking a bit carefree.

Johnson raised a smile at the corner of his mouth and greeted him, "Boss, are you waiting for me?"

Francis turned his head and stared at him indifferently. Smoke curled up in the air, making his face look a little more inscrutable. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

"My dear brother-in-law. You are so smart, and how could you make such a mistake?" Francis's tone was unclear, and it was hard to figure out what he wanted to express.

Johnson smiled, opened the car door, and got in.

After he sat firmly, the car drove out and stopped at a remote fork in the road.

Francis lowered the window, took out another cigarette, leaned against the window, and lit the cigarette.

The light of the lighter reflected on his face and was quickly extinguished.

Johnson turned to look at him, "I was still a little confused and wanted to ask you about it, but now it seems that there is no need."

"It's all something we know well, so why bother asking again and again?"

"Then what do you want me to do?"

Francis flicked the ashes from his cigarette and tilted his head slightly, "Where is that person?"

Johnson paused for a moment, then felt relieved, "You do know."

Francis said nothing.

Something came to Johnson's mind. He laughed self-deprecatingly, "So, you were just pretending in front of me before?"

"That's right. In fact, I already guessed it. The first plan didn't pass while the second did so easily."

"It's a pity that I didn't guess your last step. I feel bad for Lilian Rossum."

Johnson said with a sigh. He only told Lilian that Francis didn't care about her because he wanted to arouse her.

Now it seemed that Francis really didn't care about her.

He knew that Lilian was in his hands, but he pretended not to know and acted anxious in front of him to make him relax his vigilance.

It was only after the plan was submitted and approved that he began to search for Lilian's whereabouts.

Johnson thought that he was really worried about Lilian's safety, so he was not interested in working and submitted the plan with reassurance.

Although he later guessed that Francis might have done it on purpose, since everything was signed, all he had to do was transfer the money later.

Anyway, it was signed by Francis Landau.

At that time, with some strings pulled, the company's capital chain would be broken and turnover would be difficult, and they would have only two options, either to sell the shares or to dilute the original shares bt adding new shares.

Either way, it gave him an opportunity to take advantage of it. He could use the transferred money to pocket Landau Group's shares bit by bit.

Unexpectedly, Francis guessed his last step and did what he wanted to do before him.

Francis's eyes dimmed. His hand was hanging outside the window, and the cigarette was half- through. The white ash broke off and fell lightly to the ground.

Francis ignored the question and asked him, "Why did you do this?"

Johnson said, "Shouldn't I ask you this?"

Francis still ignored the first half of his sentence and asked, "I want to know why you did this. What is your purpose for lurking in the Landau family?"

Johnson also lit a cigarette, leaned against the car window, looked at the night scene outside, and said, "What if I don't tell you?"
