After the dance, Ken excused himself.

He reluctantly led me to a corner. “There will be a lot of celebrities at the dance,” he said. “Wait here. Don’t go anywhere.”

I said yes, but I thought that since I was not a kid and that I was not his real girlfriend, I would not let him control me.

A frivolous man in a pink suit suddenly appeared and tried to hit on me.

“You must be Elena, the newly appointed CEO of Flying Bird. You’re so beautiful and promising.”

I could not help it but I had a good impression of this person who admitted my identity, so I took another look at him.

He cleverly extended his hand and invited me, “I wonder if I could invite you to dance with me.”

He seemed like a good choice as I needed to build some connections. I held his hand.

However, our hands were separated the next second. Ken stood in front of me and blocked us.

He held the man’s hand and smiled brightly. “Mister, I heard Miss Xena talked about you earlier. Shouldn’t you have gone over and looked for her? It would not be a good habit to think about other people’s treasures.”

The man sighed in disappointment, but he did not give up. He stuck his head out to look at me and took the opportunity to say one more word to me.

“Miss Elena, my name is Mike. I’m in the mercenary business. Of course, if you had any emotional needs, I could also provide services for you. Remember to contact me again!”

After saying that, he quickly left as if he was very afraid of Ken.

Ken, on the other hand, had already stopped smiling. He hugged my waist tightly as he gnashed his teeth. “Little Wild Cat, you were so naughty! Did you want to sneak over to another man’s side when I was not paying attention? Didn’t I tell you to stay here?”

I hummed softly as I pushed his domineering arm away. “I saw that you were chatting with those beautiful women very enthusiastically. I thought that you wouldn’t be coming back, so I had no choice but to chat with others for a while.”

He rubbed his forehead and quickly explained, “I was only saying a few words. I wasn’t interested in them at all.”

When I thought about how a few noble ladies had surrounded Ken and tried to curry favor with him, I did not know why I felt strange. I felt very uncomfortable, and my tone was not too good. “Let’s go then. This dance is really boring.”

Ken pulled me back as though he was giving me a light kiss on the cheek. He then whispered, “Be good. Don’t go. Chris is here to look for you.”

My body stiffened. I walked backstage and saw Chris waiting for me. He gave me a meaningful sneer. “Mr. Ken’s dancing was very charming, wasn’t it? Elena, you were really lucky.”

In his heart, I was probably the one who shamelessly seduced Ken. However, due to his pride, he could not say it out loud.

I did not care what he thought of me at all. I said straightforwardly, “Since you took the initiative to find me, it meant that you were willing to tell me where my mother would be.”

“I wouldn’t let you off easy. First, you have to swear that you would get Mr. Ken to send over the second investment right away.” Chris was afraid that he would be at a disadvantage, so his tone was not very good.

Ken’s face darkened when he saw Chris had repeatedly disrespected me. “Mr. Chris, I think, whether as a father or a colleague, your tone was very rude. Were you trying to use Elena to threaten me?”

Chris finally understood and lowered his voice to me. “Fine, Elena, I will tell you everything. I don’t know where your mother is right now. I only know that it rained heavily that night. She ran to the company, and then she disappeared.”

I asked the polygraph system, and his answer had no issues.

I continued to ask, “Why did she run to the company in the middle of the night?”

“I don’t know,” Chris said. “She’s obsessed with her research. She stayed at the office every day, even on our honeymoon.” There was a hint of displeasure in his voice.

The lie detector went off.

I looked at him straight in the eye. “You liar!”
