Chapter 386: Do I Care About This?
It took Nathan a while to recover from his shock before he immediately called Mr. Leer to report.
In the private room of the club, since hanging up the phone, Victor had not spoken again, and Isaac sensibly ate the now cold food beside him.
When Victor’s phone lit up, Isaac glanced over immediately.
The person next to him answered the call.
“Mr. Leer, we found out.” Nathan’s voice sounded very cautious.
Victor responded with a deep tone, “Who did it?”
Nathan hesitated, “It was… Madam.”
Upon hearing his answer, Victor merely closed his eyes briefly, showing no surprise on his face.
From the moment Isaac mentioned this matter to him, he had already suspected it. Having Nathan investigate was just to confirm his suspicions.
“Got it.” Victor hung up the phone expressionlessly.
The temperature in the private room seemed to drop to freezing.
Isaac was about to say something when Victor’s voice rang in his ear.
“When did you find out?”
Hearing this, Isaac was momentarily stunned and then replied truthfully, “Yesterday.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop even further.
Isaac hurriedly defended himself, “Yesterday, the Whitaker Group also got involved. I was busy solving their problems and didn’t know how to bring it up to you. That’s why I delayed until today. Rest assured, the Whitaker Group’s recent supply of medicinal herbs is sufficient for Dr. Prescott and his team.”
Victor closed his eyes slightly, suppressing all his displeasure.
The root cause of this incident was ultimately himself.
He had long known that his mother disapproved of Olivia and had witnessed their confrontation at the cafe last time. He should have realized that his mother would take action against Olivia.
He should have assigned someone to keep a close watch on both of them, to prevent his mother from acting and to protect Olivia’s safety.
But during this period, he had been busy with company matters. When he returned from work, he stayed by Sophia’s side without leaving her for a moment, neglecting Olivia’s situation.
He never expected Lily to act so soon!
“And I didn’t expect you to be completely unaware of this,” Isaac added slowly.
He had always thought that Lily had used Leer’s Group’s influence for this matter, and that Victor would know something about it.
If Abigail hadn’t pointed it out to him this morning, he wouldn’t have thought to inform Victor specifically.
Hearing this, Victor’s expression grew even darker.
Olivia must have already known that this matter was related to Leer’s Group. Perhaps she also thought that he was aware of it.
Before this incident happened, Olivia had already been avoiding him. If she had such thoughts now, who knows how she would view him?
“The company has been busy lately,” Victor replied succinctly.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Isaac nodded in understanding. It seemed that Mrs. Leer had also kept this matter from Victor.
Thinking of this, Isaac felt a bit apologetic. “If I had known this, I should have told you yesterday.”
Victor’s face remained impassive as he said, “This matter stays between us. My mother won’t know that you told me.”
From Isaac’s perspective, Victor could fully understand why he had delayed speaking up until now.
Given the close relationship between their families, Isaac telling him about this was equivalent to going against his mother.
Isaac frowned slightly. “Do I care about this? If I hadn’t seen your attitude towards Dr. Prescott with my own eyes, I wouldn’t have made this special trip.”
