Chapter 1043: Chapter 1043: Thorough Investigation
What kind of eyes were those, filled with firmness and persistence?
In a daze, Andrew Anne seemed to truly believe what Charlotte Thompson had just said.
The unwavering thought in his heart also began to waver faintly.
Andrew Anne found it incredible; he had been around the business world for so many years, yet he had never seen such a gaze.
He opened his mouth, the foolish words on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them all down.
"Mr. Anne, I will certainly investigate this matter thoroughly," Charlotte nodded to Andrew Anne and made a promise.
However, Andrew Anne seemed to turn his head away quickly with indifference, no longer looking at Charlotte.
Facing Andrew Anne’s attitude, Charlotte’s heart did not stir because today’s events weighed heavily on her chest like a stone.
Who was the mastermind behind the scenes, targeting their Thompson Family, or saying...
Walking out somewhat absent-mindedly, in the waiting area, Jordan Thompson had already changed Vincent’s dressing and bandaged him up again.
They waited for Charlotte to come out, and immediately went up to greet her.
"Sis, what happened, who was that man? He didn’t do anything to you, did he?" Jordan held Charlotte’s shoulder, asking with deep concern.
Then he shook his head, his expression somewhat ambiguous.
"What happened! What did he do!"
Jordan’s voice immediately became tense, and even his grip tightened.
This brought Charlotte back from her daze; she stretched out her hand and flicked Jordan on the forehead.
"Ow!" Jordan winced, holding his forehead and speaking with a hint of grievance.
"Sis, what do you mean by that?"
"It means you need to calm down, don’t be so nervous," Charlotte explained helplessly.
Then she pinched the bridge of her nose, and Jordan quietly moved behind to start massaging her shoulders.
Now that their statements were recorded at the police station, there was no need for the three of them to continue staying there.
Although Vincent’s wounds had been treated and bandaged by Jordan, the ladies were still somewhat worried, so they forcefully insisted that Vincent go to the hospital immediately.
Unable to thwart Charlotte, Vincent could only obediently follow her advice.
On the way to the hospital, Annie Anne finally spoke up under Jordan’s intense gaze, "I never thought that the person who attacked me today would turn out to be the head of the Anne family, Andrew Anne."
Upon hearing this, the car fell into silence, with no whispering among the rest, and the usually lively Jordan was as quiet as a mouse.
"How could it be? Do you have any dealings with the head of the Anne family?" Vincent was the first to speak, breaking the silent tension between them.
"I don’t know either. He just said that the Anne family’s bankruptcy now is related to our Thompson Family," Charlotte said, shaking her head with difficulty.
"I’m just implicated with the Thompson Family. Didn’t they say early on that our family had already stopped pressuring the Anne family?"
Jordan also knew some things about the Anne family; he rubbed his chin and suddenly, as if a thought struck him, he snapped his fingers and said.
"My guess is that the Anne family’s finances were in trouble long ago, they couldn’t support themselves, and they simply found an excuse to pin the blame on our Thompson Family."
"Otherwise, it can’t be explained why Andrew Anne kept clinging to our Thompson Family, right?"
