Chapter 487 Adolf
Georgia stood and chatted with Wilson on the sofa in front.
“What is it? Did you turn up some news on what I told you to check to chat with me alone?”
“There’s several pieces of news that I’m going to tell you one at a time.”
Georgia’s expression turned stern.
“There were several dozen people in the list you gave me. One is currently working at the Albertson
Group as the head of a department. Seems like he holds an important position. I checked his
background in academics too. He specialized in biopharmaceutics and graduated with a doctorate.
He’s forty years old and male. His name is Adolf.”
“Is that the only person you found?”
Georgia was a bit discontent about that and fell into thought.
She’d checked the Albertson Group before, and the Wimbledon family was behind them.
The Albertson Group could be the power behind Kayden, and Adolf, who’d escaped from the lab, was
now with the Albertson Group. Adolf could know something about Robert.
Now that Kayden had stolen Robert’s test data, all that just so happened to connect into a circle.
This Albertson Group and the Wimbledon family behind it had to have something up. Seemed like she
had to approach them or send people to probe them.
“That’s the only person I’ve found so far. I haven’t turned up the whereabouts of the rest of them yet.”
“All right, I’ve got it. Go on investigating.”
As Georgia said that, Wilson continued.
“There’s one other thing. Didn’t you have me check the person called Gordon Williams, and if Gina and
Sarah’s account of the past was true?
“I found the property rights to the island. The owner of the island used to be a person called Gabriel, a
merchant. The island was ancestral property, and it’s about two hundred years of history there. But
because of the economic crisis, their family business was getting hard to maintain, so they sold the
island. I’ve sent people to check with Gabriel.
“Word came back that the people who bought the island were indeed Gordon Williams, and Sarah’s
father Percy Duran. Gabriel dealt with the two of them, so Gina’s account was true. But as for what
happened between Gina and Sarah, whether Gordon sold the rights to Percy of his own volition, or
Percy forcefully took it with his own methods, that’s still an unknown factor.”
“Have you investigated what sort of person Percy Duran was? What was his style of business for those
years?”
“Whatever it took. There’s a high probability that he forcefully took the island just as Gina says.”
“Then let’s make a hypothesis. If everything Gina says is true, do we consider the Duran family’s offer?
There’s s risk of property dispute.”
“Percy Duran might have been a person who did whatever it took, but Sarah’s on the rise these last two
years, having gotten most of the Duran family business and important personnel in the palm of her
hand. If Miss Duran can resolve the property issue, I feel that we can cooperate on this. If our SY
Group gets a part of the original share just by offering technology, it’s not a bad deal. In another ten or
twenty years, they might surpass us or develop their own tech. Cooperating early gives us the
advantage.
“But if Miss Duran can’t resolve this, then we shouldn’t partner up. Once we invest in this project, it’s a
sink of several billions with a return of only 20% every year. The first two years might also take more
investment in the infrastructure. If property disputes arise within these two years and the opponents
produce proof that stalls or halts the project, it’ll just make us lose even more.”
“I’ve got it. I’ll discuss this with Miss Duran in person and see if she can resolve it. From what I know of
Miss Duran, she might be capable.”
After Georgia and Wilson finished discussing it, it was noon.
The family had lunch in the dining room, half the day having already passed.
Robert went over to the biopharmaceutical company he’d invested in in the afternoon. It wasn’t a top
hundred firm, but the company was growing rapidly, and had gotten Robert’s investment at their lowest
point last year. They were growing well this year.
Robert had also told Georgia, though, that Randy said that even though this company was doing well in
profits, they were doing an internal audit, and he was going to observe it.
Georgia couldn’t help with that, and Robert was on business, so she didn’t go with him.
She stayed at home and continued to study the experimental data. There was too much of it and it was
too complex. Some of it was so chaotic she didn’t know where to begin.
But she was up and at ‘em now, so she maintained her powerful patience and continued to study the
figures.
After Georgia researched for several hours, she talked with Antonio online over video for a moment.
When it was almost dark, Georgia suddenly remembered an important thing that brought a lull in her
research.
After coming to America, she’d been busy seeing her own mother, taking Robert to check at Antonio’s,
then going to the Powell family in the middle of all that.
She’d been busy almost every day, and had forgotten about how she’d promised Vincent to take a gift
to his friend.
When Robert came back int the afternoon, Georgia turned to him and spoke.
“Can you find a time tomorrow when we’re both free to take this to Mr. Poole’s friend? I did promise Mr.
Poole to deliver this personally.”
Robert chuckled.
“It’s unnaturally cold these days and troublesome to go out. How about we just send people over?”
Robert felt it was best for his wife to stay inside. And for some reason, he felt a bit of lingering doubt
that going outside wasn’t too safe.
“Theoretically yes, of course, but I promised Mr. Poole to deliver the things to his friend in person. Mr.
Poole didn’t use a delivery service just because he didn’t feel safe with other people. It’s not so good to
have others do it. Mr. Poole’s friend might even give me something in return. It’s more polite to go in
person. That way Mr. Poole knows that we keep our word.”
“All right, then. Get in contact, confirm the time tomorrow, and I’ll take you there together to give the
gift.”
Georgia nodded, then turned to Robert.
“I haven’t asked you these few days, but isn’t Mr. Poole still with your mother? Has he succeeded doing
what you asked him to do yet?”
“Actually he succeeded yesterday, but a lot happened and I didn’t tell you about it. Mr. Poole’s left our
house yesterday to see someone else. He’s flown away already.”
“Already succeeded…”
Georgia murmured, then grew concerned.
“Then what condition is your mother in? Did she really forget everything?”
“Well, not precisely. You can find anything out online and I can’t keep her living in a bubble without
being able to know anything about her past. I had Mr. Poole extract my mother’s memories after her
marriage to my father, then had her believe that she really liked to paint, that she’d had a lover, and
was only in a business marriage with my father, all that, so that even if she knew what she
experienced, she doesn’t grow painful because she can’t remember it. Right now, her main memories
are of her youth, so my mother is still painting at home. She might rediscover her passion when she Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
was young.”
“That’s amazing.”
Georgia was particularly astonished at the effect of the hypnosis.
While she was still talking with Robert, she received a stranger’s call.
