The following day, Lambert Group.

Gavin arrived at the company half an hour earlier than usual. Daisy told him that Brian had not arrived yet.

After the birth of Aiden and Romy, Brian, who used to be a workaholic, arrived at the company exactly on time every day. Gavin was used to it. He told Daisy to inform him when Brian arrived.

"Okay!" Daisy glanced at Gavin and asked hesitantly, "Special Assistant Gavin, I heard that... you have a girlfriend, right?"

Gavin raised his eyebrows. "Gossip from the front desk?"

"Hey, you didn't deny it! It seems to be true!" Daisy widened her eyes. "I thought it was just a rumor!"

"Why do you think it's a rumor?" Gavin found it funny. "When did my dating girls become something unbelievable?"

In the eyes of these secretaries and assistants, wasn't he the kind of person who regards women as clothes? Daisy once said that if his female companion hadn't changed for more than three months, she would feel that something bad was going to happen-he was very likely to meet his true love!

"It's not unbelievable," Daisy said, "it's just that you've been single for so long this time. The news of your dating a girl came too fast and too suddenly. How long will you date the girl this time?"

If it were someone else, Daisy would not dare to ask such a question.

But it was Gavin, who changed girlfriends as frequently as his clothes. According to him, there were very few girls who could keep their relationship fresh with him for a long time.

When the relationship was not fresh anymore, he would naturally break up with those girls.

Gradually, every time Gavin changed girlfriends, it became a tradition in the president's office for them to gossip about how long the girl could maintain her freshness to him.

Gavin was indeed a legend. He usually broke up with those girls during the freshness period that had been accurately predicted by them.

Once someone passed through the freshness period, the office staff would think that this girl was definitely not an ordinary person and was worthy of worship!

Daisy was really curious about how long Gavin could stay with his sudden girlfriend.

Two months? Or three months?

"If everything goes well, we'll be together all the time." Gavin calmly appreciated Daisy's change in expression. "Don't be too surprised."

"..."

"What the fuck!"

Daisy was speechless. There was only one sentence in her mind,"Gavin is actually serious!"

"Special Assistant Gavin, I'm sorry!" Daisy hurriedly added, "I don't know you... I'm really sorry!"

Daisy wouldn't have made such a rude joke if she had known that Gavin really loved his current girlfriend.

"It doesn't matter, but you'd better not ask again." Gavin said, "Get back to work. Remember to inform me of Mr. Brian's arrival."

Gavin returned to his office to deal with some documents. Soon after, he received a call from Daisy that Brian had arrived.

He took a document and went straight into Brian's office.

Sitting behind his desk, Brian casually flipped through a document and asked, "What's the matter?"

Gavin pulled out a chair and sat down, handing Brian the document he had brought.

Brian had thought it was about business. However, when he opened it, he found that it was a record of how Zhong Lue had bribed the human traffickers and tried to intimidate Wendy.

His cold face suddenly darkened. "What's going on?"

"Zhong Lue once bullied Wendy in the hotel before and was taught a lesson by me. He was probably unreconciled to the lesson but he didn't dare hurt me, so he targeted Wendy." Gavin said, "Fortunately, Dui Fang saw it. Wendy is fine."

"How is she now?" Brian asked.

"Well, she's not affected at all." Gavin couldn't help but smile. "You know, she's inattentive. She can forget everything after sleeping."

Brian looked at Gavin. "How did you deal with those guys?"

It had been two days since the incident had happened. It was not until now that Gavin told him about it, so he must have first dealt with those guys who tried to kidnap Wendy.

"I beat them half to death and threw them into the police station." Gavin looked at the document with a cold look in his eyes. "Next, it's Zhong Lue's turn."

Anyway, Zhong Lue was the heir of Lopez Enterprises. Although Lopez Enterprises had no connection with Lambert Group, once they took action this time, Lambert Group would be the enemy of Lopez Enterprises.

Since it concerned the company, Gavin should come and tell Brian.

"I'll leave it to you," Brian said. "If the Zhong family visits you, tell them that it's my decision and ask them to come and find me."

"Have you thought it through?" Gavin cautioned him. "In this way, there will be one more enemy we need to deal with."

"There's nothing to think about," Brian said. "Those who dare to hurt our girl should be prepared to pay the price."

Gavin tapped his fingers on the table. "Since you don't mind becoming the enemy of the Zhong family, let's... cause a bigger bit of trouble to the Zhong family by the way, and make a bigger conflict."

Brian glanced at Gavin. "It's up to you."

"That's settled!" Gavin snapped his fingers loudly and stood up. "Let Lopez Enterprises be in chaos for a while."

Brian stopped Gavin. "You...? I heard Daisy say..."

Gavin quickly understood what Brian wanted to ask. He smiled and said, "I'm not you, who can stay single just for a girl for more than 10 years. Besides, even if I can wait more than 10 years, it's impossible for me to be with Wendy."

Brian narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you serious?"

"Uh-huh." Gavin looked serious and also frivolous. "If nothing goes wrong, it's her. Someday, we can get together and I'll introduce her to you."

Brian didn't say anything and watched Gavin walk out of the office.

At noon, while they were having lunch, Gavin went to the police station and handed the police a copy of an audio file, on which there was evidence of Zhong Lue's cooperation with the human trafficking group.

When leaving the police station, Gavin made a phone call to the reporters of Tang Enterprise Media by the way.

Early that morning, the news had spread all over the Internet that the local public security department had captured a human trafficking group and successfully found a lot of information on missing people

In the afternoon, the reporters of Tang Enterprise Media suddenly revealed that Zhong Lue, the heir of Lopez Enterprises, seemed to have something to do with the human trafficking group that had been arrested by the police. At present, Zhong Lue had been taken away by the police, which was evidenced by photos.

All of a sudden, the major online forums were in an uproar, and Lopez Enterprises' stock was affected.

The chairman of Lopez Enterprises personally held a press conference to deny that Zhong Lue was involved in human trafficking. In the end, he asked the reporter on the scene, "Our Lopez Enterprises is big enough to have so many profitable projects. Does the heir need to participate in this kind of criminal activity?"

His words made sense; Zhong Lue would not be so stupid to do such a thing.

"But, why was Young Master Zhong taken away by the police?" The reporter of Tang Enterprise Media added, "The photos clearly show that Young Master Zhong is currently in the police station."

"We can't reveal too much about this matter for the time being. But I promise, although Zhong Lue was taken to the police station, he has nothing to do with human trafficking!" Mr. Zhong added, "After this matter comes to light, we will hold a press conference to explain it to everyone."

Although the chairman had repeatedly denied it, there was a great drop in the stock of Lopez Enterprises. The scandal that the son of a rich and powerful family had participated in human trafficking shocked the entire Arlington. Joanne, who was busy taking care of the two children, heard about it right away.

When Joanne worked at the police station, she had encountered so many unscrupulous things like this. She was still calm, but Iris was outraged.

"If it's true, they are really heinous!" Iris couldn't help but sigh. "There are so many ways to make a living in the world. Why did they have to destroy other people's families?"

"Mom, calm down. I'll ask what's going on."

Joanne made a phone call to her previous office, wanting to inquire about this matter, but Captain Turner said, "Ask your Mr. Brian. He should know more about the whole thing."

After hanging up the phone, Joanne did not react.

Iris soon noticed that something was wrong with Joanne, so she asked her, "What's wrong?"

"Mom..." Joanne said uncertainly, "it seems to have something to do with Brian..."

Iris was also stunned. At this time, Brian had just arrived home.

"Dear."

"Brian."

Iris and Joanne called Brian almost at the same time.

"What's the matter?"

Such a situation was quite rare, and Brian couldn't help but reveal his doubts in his voice.

"What's going on with the human trafficking group and Zhong Lue?" Joanne looked at Brian in confusion. "Captain Turner said that you were clear about the whole thing, is that true?"

"Have you heard about it?" Brian sat down and said, "Wendy is the cause of this matter."

With that, Joanne was completely unable to react. "How could it be related to Wendy?"

Brian told the whole story in concise and comprehensive words. Briefly, a few months ago, Zhong Lue had plotted against Wendy in the hotel, and Gavin arrived in time and taught Zhong Lue a lesson.

After all, Zhong Lue was the heir of Lopez Enterprises. He had never been insulted like this and had always borne this in mind.

However, Gavin's identity was not simple. He didn't dare lay a finger on Gavin openly, so he turned to target Wendy.

Zhong Lue made a plan. He bribed a group of criminals and had them intimidate Wendy. As long as he did it without leaving a trace, he would not be exposed in the end.

However, he had miscalculated that the person whom he had bribed was so cowardly. They were scared by Dui Fang and gave him up him so easily.

Joanne didn't expect an apple of discord to be sowed a few months ago. She blinked her eyes and asked, "So what's your plan now?"

Brian replied, "Wendy wants Zhong Lue to be punished by the law."

Joanne knew Brian's and Gavin's style too well. Wendy's choice was too kind in their eyes.

She looked at Brian and said, "But you and Gavin don't agree, do you? So, the media revealed that Zhong Lue has something to do with the criminal gang. In this way, the public will associate Zhong Lue with illegal activities. Even if Zhong Lue can prove that he didn't participate in the human trafficking, the label of cooperating with the criminal gang will follow him for the rest of his life. The future of Lopez Enterprises has become unknown."

Brian rubbed Joanne's face. "There are some things that don't need to be explained too clearly."

"..."

Joanne could not help but sigh.

Zhong Lue could only blame himself for having poor eyesight and provoking these two people whom he could not afford to offend in the world.
