Second Marriage to Mr. Rich
Chapter 208

With one hand on the steering wheel, Ned pulled his necktie to calm himself before calling Trevor, the head of the legal department of Fletcher Corporation. "Mr. Marshall, Vitality Biotech Group's formula was accidentally leaked from us. Please look through the contract and see if there's any way we can deal with it." Ned threw his phone to the side after hanging up the phone. He then stepped on the accelerator and rushed toward Ingrid's apartment in Krontos.

Ned's phone call gathered everyone in the legal department, where they worked overnight to study the contract for any countermeasures.

The whole legal department was panicking. The contract stated if the collaboration with Vitality Biotech Group was successful, they would involve Fletcher Corporation in their next cancer treatment development project.

The legal department was happy for Fletcher Corporation because of this. They thought it was finally time for Fletcher Corporation to rise. No one would've thought Tommy had made a big mess and ruined their dreams.

If they couldn't find a way to settle this, all of them would lose their job.

For many years, they had covered up for Tommy, Ned's future cousin-in-law. However, this time, Tommy had leaked Vitality Biotech Group's formula.

Fletcher Corporation had signed a non-disclosure agreement with Vitality Biotech Group. Given the compensation was more than 30 billion dollars, they would be paying them their whole company.

Ned arrived and entered Ingrid's apartment after entering the password to the door. He saw Tommy drinking on the couch with a drunk look.

Tommy stood up wobbly as he saw Ned. "Hey, Ned..."

Ned walked toward Tommy with a bitter face and kicked him to the ground.

"Ned! What are you doing?" Tommy asked in surprise while holding onto the couch.

"What the fuck have you done? How dare you steal Vitality Biotech Groups's formula?" Ned yelled.

Tommy sobered up as he heard Ned. With a pale look, Tommy knelt before Ned and said, "N-Ned! It was the people from the casino. They forced me to do it!

"They said if I don't steal the formula, they're going to harvest my organs! So I have no choice but to—"

Without waiting for Tommy to finish, Ned gave him another kick, causing Tommy to fall over and break the desk lamp on a corner table.

A broken shard of the desk lamp punctured Tommy's arm, causing him to scream in pain. He quickly endured the pain and got up, knees on the ground. "Ned, it was Angeline! She made me gamble with her! I can confirm she's an ally of the casino!"

Ned pulled Tommy's hair, forcing him to look up. "Did Angeline force you to steal the formula? Or did she force you to gamble? Do you think I'll let you go if you push the blame onto Angeline, Tommy?

"Vitality Biotech Group has called the police. This time, I'm not going to bail you out. Get ready to spend the rest of your life in jail!"

"Ned! Please, Ned!" Tommy hugged Ned's leg. "Please, Ned! I've learned my lesson, and I was punished for this, too! I'm begging you, Ned. Please tell them to have mercy on me!"

Ingrid opened the door forcefully and was shocked to see Tommy's bleeding arm.

"Stop it, Ned!" Ingrid ran forward and hugged Ned from behind. "Please, Ned! Let go of Tommy! It was all my fault for spoiling Tommy!

"I'll find a way for the money. I can try asking Simon for help! I'll not let Fletcher Corporation be in trouble, so please stop hitting Tommy!" Ned let go of Tommy's hair and closed his eyes. He pushed away Ingrid's hands on his waist and turned to look at her.
