Chapter 364 Flora Disconnects
Arabella quickly said, "Of course."
On the other end of the phone, Roy put down his cell phone, practically burning with anxiety.
This morning he'd received notice from Moris's side, telling him to contact Flora and have her bring people back. He couldn't have been happier and rushed to contact Flora.
But unexpectedly, while he could still reach her yesterday, today he suddenly couldn't get through to her.
He couldn't get any information, and with no other options, he called Arabella.
Sure enough, Arabella had no news of Flora either.
He was very worried now. Flora was obviously still inside Star Creation, but if he couldn't reach her, did that mean something had happened to her?
But if something had happened, she should have contacted him right away, unless it was an emergency and Flora didn't have time to reach him.
But what kind of emergency would make her disappear without leaving any message at all?
After struggling with this for a while, he still called Alexander, briefly explained the situation, and asked, "Mr. FitzRoy, I think Flora might be in danger right now. Should we arrange for a forced rescue?"
Hearing this, Alexander was silent for two seconds, then said, "Wait one more day. I trust Flora."
No matter how dangerous it was, it shouldn't be impossible to even contact headquarters, even if just to leave a single message, right?
So Flora's disappearance most likely meant she had shut down all communication methods herself.
In other words, Flora had discovered a valuable lead and, to avoid drawing attention, had turned off all devices that might give her away.
Waiting one day was the time he was giving Flora.
He hoped Flora could bring him a surprise.
Roy was found stunned for a moment and said dejectedly, "Mr. FitzRoy, I'm really worried..."
"Flora is stronger than you think," Alexander said in a deep voice. "Give her some time."
Roy could only nod.
Meanwhile, at Star Creation Media's resort hotel in the suburbs.
Because the crisis at the company had been resolved, these trainees could finally go back today.
Flora had become the most dazzling star among all the trainees thanks to that initial song.
Miller had been sent to prison by Faye and Jason. Nason was burdened with many company matters and stretched thin, so he'd rarely come to flirt with Flora lately.
Because he was useless, after a while he felt it was too exhausting, and after thinking it over, decided to get himself an assistant.
He didn't have the authority to appoint a manager to fill Miller's vacancy, but getting an assistant to do the work for him was doable.
Flora stood out among the trainees, and since he was somewhat interested in her, he chose Flora without hesitation.
Last night, he'd slipped into Flora's room, told her about this, and tried to take advantage of her, but Flora pressed against his chest and gave him a hand chop.
After waking up, Nason left satisfied.
Flora figured that once they got back to the company, Nason would probably assign her tasks, and the tasks Nason assigned would definitely be related to company internal affairs. Maybe before entering higher-level meeting rooms, there would be comprehensive metal detection scans.
So early this morning she preemptively shut down all her devices and hid them in her shoe soles, preparing to return to the company.
The only oversight was that she was used to doing things her own way, and before shutting down the devices, she forgot to tell Roy.
But she felt it wasn't a big problem. Although Roy was stupid, he should be able to figure out that she'd made temporary progress and shut down the devices.
Even if Roy couldn't figure it out, Mr. FitzRoy should be able to, right?
So she confidently got on the bus back to Star Creation.
They arrived at the company in the afternoon. At first, Flora followed all the other trainees and went with the staff back to that floor of cages. Not long after, Nason's secretary came to find her and brought her to Nason's office.
Nason's secretary was also a beauty with curves in all the right places. She gave Flora a look that everyone understood and said with a flirtatious laugh, "Please take care of me from now on."
Flora smiled even more sweetly, "Thank you, let's take care of each other."
The secretary was very satisfied with her response and soon left.
Nason came back after a while, threw the folder in his hand on the desk, and irritably loosened his tie. "These cowards—as soon as something happened to Miller, they got scared out of their minds. They're actually making a fuss about selling their shares. I'd like to see if they have the life to sell but not the life to run. Do they really think Star Creation is so easy to leave? Damn it!"
Flora's eyes darted around. She walked over to massage Nason's shoulders and asked curiously, "Star Creation is a public company. If there's a problem, it's normal for shareholders to want to reduce their holdings and sell shares. You can just find a way to delay them. Why are you talking about people's lives?"
Nason sneered, "What do you know? Do you think this is something I can control? Let me tell you, I'm just cannon fodder pushed to the front. The big boss behind Star Creation isn't someone ordinary people can afford to offend. If they really dare to sell their shares, the boss will definitely kill them. Star Creation's dividends are so high—do they really think this money is so easy to take?"
Flora's face turned pale with fear, and she leaned against him, scared. "What are you saying? What kind of person has that much power, even killing people? You're trying to scare me, right?"
Nason laughed heartily, kneading her shoulder. "You're still so naive. Stay by my side and learn. If you're lucky, you might go even further. If you're unlucky, being my assistant is as far as you'll go."
Seeing him avoid talking about the people behind the company, Flora secretly rolled her eyes, but on the surface still acted sweet and said to him, "I know you're good to me. You're promoting me. I'll definitely perform well."
Nason said with a smile, "Good. Come with me to a meeting in a bit. This is the company's highest-level confidential meeting. I'm letting you attend to help you establish yourself in the company. Let me remind you—keep your mouth shut and put away your worthless conscience and tears. If you can't do that, go back where you came from. Understand?"
Flora hooked her arm around his neck, kissed him on the cheek, and said with a flirtatious laugh, "I understand. What conscience do I have? To climb up, I've already accepted being taken advantage of. Don't you know me yet?"
Nason was very satisfied with her performance and lewdly slapped her butt. "Little slut!"
