Before Lina could even breathe, Kaden placed her to the ground. Instantly, he grabbed his phone out of his pocket, and called his people. She watched in horror as his face became deathly still. With his broad shoulders turned to her, he conversed stealthily with his people. Despite this horrible news, no one was panicking. Was she the only one?
"How could this have happened?" Kaden calmly asked, his fingers pale as ice on the phone. His grip tightened at Sebastian's response.
"The Chief Executive of the news reporting company isn't picking up our phone calls. Just yesterday night, it's reported he was seen with Chairman of Medeor Conglomerate—"
"Expose the Chief Executive for all his crimes. Leave no stone untouched." Kaden heard rustling behind him. He swiftly turned around to see Lina scrambling past him to her phone.
Kaden grabbed her by the wrists, forcing her to stop. They were at arm's length, her eyes wide and worried. His was sharp and cunning.
