Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Baron Lawrence Knows Enna Clark Took a Risk Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Baron Lawrence Knows Enna Clark Took a Risk Meanwhile.

Scott Harris anxiously waited in a van outside another abandoned factory.

This time he had used a nanny van, equipped with computers and other devices, parked discreetly at an entrance to the left of the abandoned factory.

“Any luck? Did you see anyone?”

Someone had just returned, and he immediately pressed down on the person’s shoulder and asked.

The person shook his head, “No, I didn’t dare get too close, for fear of being spotted and putting Ms. Clark in danger.”

“And Mr. Harris as well? Has Ms. Clark not sent any signals yet?”

Scott Harris took a deep breath, his head aching as if split open, “No.”

He now deeply regretted not stopping Ms. Clark that morning, and even letting himself be convinced by her to agree to the risk.

It had been nearly three hours since the incident, and there was no word from Ms. Clark. If Baron Lawrence found out… Scott Harris shivered at the thought.

Just as he was burning with anxiety, his phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID, he felt like dying — Speak of the devil, and he shall appear!

What now?

Baron had called…

Right now, he was not just anxious, but his back was breaking out in cold sweat. Holding the phone, his face turned all shades of pale and flushed, a sight to behold.

After the phone had rung persistently for a dozen times, he still didn’t dare not to answer, took a deep breath, and tried to appear calm before answering the call, “Hello, Baron.”

“What are you doing!” Domineering, authoritative! It was Baron Lawrence’s voice!

“Ah, I… I’m… I was making coffee for Ms. Clark and didn’t notice the phone vibrating. Is there something you need, Baron?” Scott Harris’ forehead was covered in sweat as he blurted out the first excuse that came to mind.

It was his first time lying to Baron Lawrence, and he was so nervous that he almost bit his tongue.

Luckily, Baron Lawrence wasn’t there, otherwise, just by looking at his reaction, one could tell he was lying.

But Baron Lawrence wasn’t there to see it, so he asked in a grave voice, “Where’s Enna Clark? Why didn’t she answer the phone?”

“Uhm…” Scott Harris hadn’t expected Baron Lawrence to have also called Ms. Clark and was at a loss for words for a moment, “Ms… Ms. Clark?”

The impatience in Baron Lawrence’s voice grew, “Aren’t you making her coffee? Get her on the phone!” Damn it, he had only been away briefly, and that woman dared to not answer his calls!

“Ms. Clark…” Now not only his forehead but his whole body was sweating. He felt like dying as thousands of excuses flashed through his mind, but under Baron Lawrence’s oppressive aura, all the explanations he could think of stuck in his throat, unable to utter a word.

“What’s going on with Enna Clark?” Baron Lawrence was no fool. Harris’ hesitation might not have raised suspicions at first, but his consecutive hesitations made Baron Lawrence’s heart tighten, and he narrowed his eyes.

Scott Harris’ face was a rainbow of colors as he forced out, “Ms. Clark is taking a shower, so it’s inconvenient for her to answer the phone. How about, after Ms. Clark is done showering, I’ll have her call you back?”

If he hadn’t hesitated that moment, Baron Lawrence might have believed his excuse, but the hesitation had been too obvious, and now Baron Lawrence had his suspicions.

Being a genius with high intelligence, once he became suspicious, Scott Harris’ poor excuses could no longer deceive him, “I’ll ask you one more time, what has happened?”

Without any apparent increase in anger, Scott Harris no longer dared to hide anything and told him everything from A to Z.
