The car had just come to a steady stop.
Just in time.
Ellie Doyle's figure emerged from the Doyle Clan Building.
Marcus Sharp pursed his lips, his gaze sweeping over the figure that appeared outside the window, his voice deep, "That piece of information on Professor Doyle, give me a copy."
"Yes!"
Flynn Zimmerman immediately nodded, handing over a set of data he had already prepared for Marcus Sharp.
The report was clearly marked, Gender: Male.
Not her?
Marcus Sharp pursed his lips, closed the file, and after taking another glance at Ellie Doyle, withdrew his gaze.
Outside the building.
Ellie Doyle also felt a gaze sweep over her.
Her eyes accurately locked onto the black business car not far away.
She recognized this car.
Last year, when she participated in the compilation of a top-tier car magazine, she remembered, it seemed to be included as well.
However,
Such a high-end car, aside from being in a museum collection, she didn't expect someone would actually drive it around.
Ellie Doyle didn't have time to think further.
Behind her, a set of hurried footsteps had already caught up.
Following that was Gideon Smith's voice.
"Boss! Wait up!"
Gasping for breath, Gideon Smith caught up, and at over forty years old, calling a young woman in her twenties "boss" seemed somewhat incongruous.
Ellie Doyle also frowned slightly, looking at Gideon Smith, "I've told you before, don't call me boss."
"Alright, boss, boss, where are you going now? I'll have the driver take you!" Gideon Smith cheerfully agreed, yet his address for her didn't change at all, "Boss, when did you come to Sea City? Why didn't you tell me, I could have arranged a welcoming feast for you! But, it's not too late, I've already informed the people below, we'll arrange a grand welcoming party for you tonight!"
"There's no need to bother, I have other things to do, I'm leaving now." Ellie Doyle's expression remained unchanging, she waved her hand, directly hailed a passing taxi, got in, shut the door, all her movements were smooth and without delay.
It wasn't until the taxi carrying Ellie Doyle had gone far that Gideon Smith couldn't help but smack his lips, muttering softly, "Never would have thought, the boss is so young, wonder which lucky bastard will benefit from her in the future."
The assistant who had been standing by Gideon Smith's side finally couldn't help but speak up, "Director Smith, who was that young lady just now? You have to call her boss with your status?"
Following that,
The assistant suffered a slap on the head from Gideon Smith.
Gideon Smith cursed, "Isn't that obvious? That lady has a frighteningly powerful background, if I don't call her boss, should I call you boss?"
"Let's go, go back and arrange some manpower."
"Make sure the cooperation with the Doyle Family goes well, if anyone dares to make a mistake, I'll have his head!"
With Gideon Smith's departure,
The entrance of the Doyle Clan Building returned to tranquility.
In the black business car.
Flynn Zimmerman cautiously glanced into the rearview mirror, "Elder Hayes, weren't you here to find Professor Doyle? What do we do now..."
Marcus Sharp's brooding gaze was fixed on the locator that had been completely disconnected since the car had parked earlier, his handsome face expressionless, it was unclear what he was thinking at the moment.
Finally, after the car had been parked for a few minutes, he coldly spoke up, "Get some people over here to keep watch, also, I want a file on everyone working in this building. In one hour, I want to see all personnel profiles."
"Yes!"
The Doyle Clan Building.
The conference room was now empty.
Only Henry Doyle was still sitting there, stunned.
As Ellie Doyle's lawyer came in, a transfer agreement was presented in front of Henry Doyle.
Henry Doyle finally came back to his senses, realizing what was happening.
His gaze fixed on the document on the table, Henry Doyle angrily tore it to shreds; "I won't sign it! I won't!"
"Get out! All of you, get out!!!"
Henry Doyle pointed furiously towards the door, his face ashen with rage.
The lawyer showed no reaction towards his helpless anger, simply stood up, nodded indifferently, "Very well, sir, I'll go back and inform Ms. Doyle and then issue a subpoena for court. We'll see you in court."
With that statement,
The lawyer turned and left.
In the conference room, the figure of Henry Doyle was once again left alone.
He stared at the chaotic scene and started to feel scared.
If Ellie Doyle decided to sue, there was no way he could win.
After all,
the entire predecessor of Doyle Company had been founded by Ellie Doyle's biological mother.
Even in terms of inheritance rights, Ellie Doyle would be the biggest beneficiary of the company.
What to do now?
What to do?
"Dad, what's going on? I called you so many times, why didn't you pick up any of my calls?" Nola Doyle, still unaware of what had happened, walked in dressed in high-end brands and bore a slight complaint on her intricately made-up face, "Dad, I'm getting engaged tonight with Young Master Woods, you didn't forget about it, did you?"
Hearing his daughter Nola's words, Henry Doyle looked at her with an ugly expression, "Engaged? There's no company left, what engagement? Go tell the Woods Family, the engagement party is cancelled!"
Nola looked bewildered, "Dad, what are you talking about, isn't the company fine? How is it gone?"
Henry Doyle, with a cold face, didn't answer Nola's question and strode out.
Elsewhere.
In the hotel.
The two little ones had a video call, sharing the information they had gathered today.
Upon hearing that their daddy had located their mommy's whereabouts,
Joy expressed his excitement swiftly and used sign language to communicate with his younger siblings, "Does that mean we can finally meet for real soon!"
Seeing the puzzled expressions on his younger siblings, Joy remembered that they didn't understand sign language.
So,
he quickly typed a message and sent it to the group chat, "Does that mean we can finally meet for real soon!"
Quiana nodded excitedly, "For sure! I believe the misunderstanding between daddy and mommy will be cleared up soon!"
"Then, we will definitely be reunited as a family!"
"By the way, since daddy's last name is Hayes, does that mean my brother and I should change our last names too?"
"Then I would be Joy Hayes, and my brother would be Cameron Hayes!"
Quiana imagined the future scene with a face full of longing.
Just thinking about meeting daddy soon made her incredibly excited.
However, Quinnie Doyle, who had been mostly silent from the beginning, was staring at the moving red dots on the phone screen when he suddenly spoke out, "Daddy and mommy, they haven't met."
The hotel room suddenly grew quiet.
Quiana, who had just been excited, widened her eyes and turned to look at Quinnie, "How come? Didn't daddy already lock onto mommy's location?"
"Yeah, but mommy's phone ran out of battery not long ago." Quinnie didn't want to admit it, but this was the reality, "If I'm not wrong, daddy must have investigated and found mommy's cell phone number, and tracked her location that way."
Just as Quinnie finished speaking,
a sound came from the door of the hotel room.
Someone with a room card opened the door from outside.
Quinnie was about to end the video call when Joy quickly sent a message from the other side, "Is it mommy?"
Quinnie paused his finger on the hang-up button, and nodded towards Joy on the other side of the video, "Mommy is back, do you want to see her?"
"Is that possible?" Joy used sign language, his eyes already reddening a bit, "I promise I won't talk, can I just see mommy?"
Just as Joy expressed his wish through sign language and was about to put it into words,
Ellie Doyle's voice came through clearly.
"What are you guys doing?"
"No, nothing!"
Quiana was the first to react, hiding her phone behind her back.
Quinnie, as the older brother, didn't speak; his eyes were fixed on Ellie Doyle who had walked in, and his young face looked a bit tense.
Seeing the unnatural behavior of the two children, Ellie Doyle did not press further.
She walked up to them and crouched down, touching Quiana and Quinnie's faces, "Are you hungry? Mommy will take you to eat, what do you want?"
At the mention of food, Quiana's expression visibly brightened, "I want to eat hot pot! Mommy, I've heard that Summerland's hot pot is particularly delicious, can you take Quiana for hot pot?"
While speaking,
Quiana forgot all about the video call with Joy, and in her excitement, she lifted her phone happily.
It was only after Ellie Doyle's gaze fell on Quiana's phone screen that
Quiana realized too late.
