Married to his secret crush-Chapter 382 - Tracking Location

After all, he has been working in Rosette for so long. So, he thought that probably their President was overthinking it. But the more he looked into, the more suspicious he got.

"Did you discover something?" Yu Mei asked.

Director Xiang nodded as they walked towards her car, "After we shifted the headquarters of Rosette from Amaranthine to Beijing, the Vice-President's family still remained there..."

"But he is the type of man who is possessive about his family," Yu Mei frowned, "Why would he not bring then here together with him?"

"I am unsure of it. Other than that, there is something else too..." Director Xiang paused.

Yu Mei glanced at him.

"He has..." His words were interrupted by the constant ringing of his phone. He was about to reject the call when he noticed the Caller ID. A deep frown was etched on his face and he answered the call with a hint of urgency on his face, "Yes... Did you get it..? Alright, send it to me..." He hung up.

Yu Mei looked at him as she raised an eyebrow, "Is everything alright, Director Xiang?"

"Lass, I will explain it on the way," In a hurry, the old man reverted back to his previous way of addressing her, "Let's go."

Staying true to his words, Director Xiang explained everything to Yu Mei as he sat on the passenger's seat while she drove the car.

What made Director Xiang more suspicious about the Vice President was that the man's call record that he acquired through some unethical means.

The Vice President had been in contact with a person ever since Rosette was almost on the verge of bankruptcy. That unknown number hsd been calling him multiple times over and over again. And compared to his other call records which lasted between 1-10 minutes, the Vice President talked with this number for around 30 minutes and even one hour at times.

On further investigation, Director Xiang discovered that this number was registered in Amaranthine.

"Is this the place?" Yu Mei stepped on the breaks as she looked out of the glass panes. It was an abandoned construction site...

"Yes," Director Xiang handed his phone to her, "Here. If I am not wrong, the Vice President should be here to meet that person. He has been talking to them since one hour."

Yu Mei glanced at the live locationflashing on the screen.

"That private investigator got some of his men to install the tracking device in his car," Director Xiang said.

Yu Mei looked around following the direction of the car and her gaze landed on the car in a distance. It was indeed the Vice President's car. They could not be sure if he was here to meet that mysterious person he talked to or if that person was even related to the fund embezzlement in the company during the time between her death and transmigration.

But since there was a small possibility.

She transferred the live location to her phone before looking at Director Xiang, "You can take my car and go back," she said as she alighted the car. The bodyguard assigned by Jun Zixuan to protect her should be around.

Director Xiang alighted the car, "President, give me a moment to get your bodyguards here."

"No need," There was not much time and she did not want to alert the Vice-President. The man was someone she had trusted for years and if this doubt of hers was wrong then she did not want him to be disheartened by her distrust in him.

But for a fact, Yu Mei knew that her instinct has always been on point.

Director Xiang frowned, "Then let me accompany you."

"No-"

"I am not leaving. We don't know what might be there," Director Xiang was a stubborn old man and he was persistent about not leaving her alone here.

And despite all her attempts to make him leave, he did not leave.

As they walked inside the building which was under-construction, Yu Mei could not sense another presence around. There were some messy clothes, unfinished food, beer cans and she believed it belonged to the workers here.

Since it was the time of sunset, their working hours were probably over.

Taking a deep breath, she climbed up the stairs, "Director Xiang, you don't have to..."

"No, I will."

"Uhh... Can you climb the stairs?" Although the old man looked healthy and fine for someone in his 60s but she did not know if he will manage it.

"Lass, I do morning walk everyday," The old man smugly said.

"_" That's not what we are talking about, are we?

Yu Mei speechlessly looked around and noticed open lifts which had railing and were connected to chains. They were open from all side and the ones that would be used by the workers to work efficiently.

Director Xiang followed her gaze, "I am not taking those," He might drop from the railing, "I am fine with stairs."

"Alright. Stop when you can't do it anymore," With that said, Yu Mei swiftly skipped two steps as she dashed upwards.

Director Xiang: "_" Hey hey, you said we will walk. 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

Yu Mei checked the location on her phone after climbing to the fourth floor and the Vice President's car was still around but she could not see anyone around. This area was pretty much empty and had nothing except for this abandoned building.

Realizing something, she looked behind her. It seems like Director Xiang changed his mind. Just as she was about to sigh in relief, she spotted the man climbing the stairs, holding the rods for support as if he was climbing a mountain.

"_"

By the time they reached the fifth floor, Yu Mei could not see anyone and she did not know if she should be disappointed or relieved that there is a chance Vice President might not be betraying the company and her.

"President, I..." Director Xiang felt guilty for his unfinished information and as he was about to continue, Yu Mei shook her head all of a sudden.

Noticing the serious look on her face, he followed her gaze and much to his shock, he noticed two shadows behind the wall in the distance.
