Chapter 193: 174、His Exorbitantly Priced Wife
From Ivy Aretha’s residential area to the coffee shop where Adam is, it takes about an hour by car, but Michael Gordon only took half an hour to get there, not knowing with what mindset he drove to the destination.
His mind kept going back to that one sentence Adam said when he called him: ’You may have taken an astronomical-priced wife.’
All the memories were frozen on the words "astronomical price". Michael Gordon didn’t lack money, nor did he need to marry a sky-high priced wife, but hearing those two words from Adam made the conjectures in his mind almost certain.
When he found out that Ivy Aretha had had a car accident, he asked Adam to start investigating from the orphanage, one by one, including the car accident back then and why a five-year-old child was sent to the orphanage after the accident.
Even if both parents were dead in the accident, there must be relatives in the family. How could they let such a young girl live in an orphanage?
What happened in between? What did little Ivy suffer back then to cause amnesia?
Ivy Aretha, an astronomical-priced wife? Could it be related to the famous Aretha family back then?
That was a legend that had disappeared. Could it be that...
Michael Gordon didn’t even dare to think further!
"Boss!"
When Michael Gordon arrived, Adam was already waiting for him with a stack of materials. Seeing him coming in with a somewhat unpleasant expression, he first got up and called him before handing over the documents from the file bag to him.
Michael Gordon took the file bag, glanced at him, and then sat down on the sofa opposite Adam, tearing open the material and flipping through it page by page. His slender fingers glided over the ivory paper, and Michael Gordon’s face gradually sank. As he flipped through the pages, his hand suddenly stopped, and Adam clearly saw the man opposite, his hand trembling on the paper...
"Boss!"
Adam called him in a low voice, wanting to say something, but before the words could come out of his mouth, Michael Gordon’s deep voice suddenly rang out, "Tell me, who else is investigating Ivy’s affairs besides Mario Jensen?"
Michael Gordon knew that Mario Jensen was investigating Ivy Aretha’s affairs, and he didn’t even try to stop him. After all, he was Ivy’s senior, and apart from his identity as his love rival, he had no aversion to him.
"In addition to Jensen’s people investigating Aretha family matters, Risa Scott and Alya Larson’s people are also investigating Aretha family’s matters?" Adam was very sensitive about these two getting involved. After all, the relationship between Alya Larson and Risa Scott was too unusual, and Risa Scott’s purpose was also too obvious.
"Where did you find out that the news of the death of David Aretha and his family in a car accident was fake?" Michael Gordon had already read the report sent by Adam and then closed the folder with the documents, looking at Adam thoughtfully. Between his eyebrows were shock and surprise, but also a faint trace of delight.
"When I checked on the deaths of the Aretha family of three after the car accident and went to the local area to verify, I encountered Jensen’s people investigating. I used some means to steal their information, so I knew..."
"Ahem..." Michael Gordon glanced at Adam lazily and said, "You’re good at this, having you investigate things, and you directly steal other people’s achievements? Does Jensen know it was you who did it?"
"Of course he doesn’t know!" Since he had already stolen from them, he certainly couldn’t let them know. "Boss, as you know, detective work is not my expertise, it’s more suitable for me to snatch and steal secretly. In fact, as long as you order Mr. Thompson, all the details, even which way the lady was facing when she was born, will be immediately known!"
This kind of thing is what Oliver Thompson is best at, and it is extremely fast!
Adam told the truth, ever since he took on the task from Michael Gordon of digging into people’s backgrounds, he had become irritated and even lost weight.
Michael Gordon glanced at him and then nodded. The last time he went on the blind date with Sienna Harrison and found out that Sienna was called Ivy Aretha, he asked him to investigate, but the result was a resume like that of Baidu.
"Mr. Thompson is busy looking for a wife lately, and men with disharmonious sex lives are definitely not efficient at work!" Michael Gordon glared at him. His woman was hiding here to serve his wife and child, and he didn’t plan to let him know.
After a moment, Michael Gordon added casually, "You did a good job secretly snatching things. Be more careful when you steal next time, don’t let them catch you!"
"Boss, do you plan to tell your wife about this matter?"
Adam just asked casually, after all, this was about Ivy Aretha’s relatives. He didn’t know why the Aretha family sent a five-year-old child to the orphanage back then, and then told the outside world that all three members of David Aretha’s family died in a car accident. "Now the people of the Aretha family are secretly looking for the lady. There is some news on the street. The Aretha family is now down and out, saying that there is something on the lady that can reorganize the Aretha family business and restore the sensation of David Aretha’s time!"
Hearing this, Michael Gordon’s deep and profound face sank again. He never thought that Ivy Aretha, who was born in an orphanage, was once the only daughter of David Aretha, the famous jewelry and antique family in those years.
From the beginning of investigating Ivy Aretha’s childhood, he thought of millions of possibilities, but never this one?
He inadvertently married an astronomical-priced wife. Back when David Aretha was in the limelight, the Gordon family was just a small family business. Later, David Aretha’s family died unexpectedly, and his half-brother took over, slowly fading away.
After all, they were in different industries, and he didn’t pay too much attention.
He didn’t expect his daughter to still be alive, and somehow became his wife. So why did the Aretha family secretly send a badly injured girl to the orphanage back then, and now they are starting to secretly look for her?
"For now, there’s no need to tell the wife, I have my own plans. You just watch Risa Scott, and don’t worry about other things!"
Michael Gordon knew that Adam’s investigation had come this far and it was already his best effort. After all, he was a businessman, and he couldn’t cultivate such a peculiar talent. It was more reliable to let Oliver Thompson handle this kind of thing!
"Thank you, Boss!" Adam finally breathed a sigh of relief, no longer having to worry about those brain-killing matters.
"Be more careful when sneaking around and stealing guns in the future!" Just as he said that, Michael Gordon’s casual voice came over, "But if you go to steal someone’s underwear and bras, I still support you. Adam, you’re not getting any younger, it’s time to find a woman to live with!"
After saying that, Michael Gordon left without looking back.
Adam: "..."
His boss just got married yesterday, and he’s already learned to live a life today? This wife is really amazing!
