Chapter 525: Chapter 325: Lin Chuan’s Informant_2
After much deliberation, he decided to temporarily stay in the resort to lay low.
Firstly, he was waiting for the execution plan from Morgan Group’s headquarters.
Secondly, he would evacuate as soon as an opportunity arose, to get far away from Southeast Asia.
“Bring me my coat.”
Lucas called out through the intercom; this little resort was his private property, never included in any of Morgan Group’s records. Thus, here he didn’t have to worry about being discovered.
In a short while,
from one of the cottages, the secretary Moli emerged with Lucas’ coat in hand, along with a steaming cup of coffee.
Lucas first put on his coat, wrapping it around himself, and then took the coffee from Secretary Moli, sipping it.
The coffee tonight was exceptionally bitter.
“Did you add sugar?”
Lucas asked.
“No, General Manager, you don’t like sugar in it, right?” Secretary Moli replied, her head lowered.
Lucas laughed at himself, “Feeling gloomy, even the coffee tastes a few degrees bitterer than usual.”

Secretary Moli didn’t say anything.
The sea breeze lifted her hair, fluttering slightly.
Lucas couldn’t help but ask about the current outside situation, mainly regarding the Morgan Group’s industry chain in Southeast Asia.
Secretary Moli replied truthfully: total collapse.
Lucas’ hand holding the coffee stiffened, his complexion rather unnatural. On the dimly lit seaside resort, the sound of waves followed one after another, as if incessantly battering Lucas’ psychological defenses.
Indeed.
Years of hard-earned achievements in gambling, addictive drugs, entertainment, human trafficking, and other industries were destroyed overnight. No, in just a few hours, all were disrupted.
Now he had nothing left!
Lucas took another sip of coffee, indeed it was very bitter, his mouth a mix of the aroma and bitterness of coffee: “Moli, now only you are left.”
Secretary Moli pursed her lips slightly, just nodding in response.
Lucas turned to gaze out at the open sea, in the pitch-black world, he could only vaguely make out the sea horizon and waves nearby.
“Moli, have you been keeping up with Lin Chuan’s movements?” Lucas asked.
This had been one of his daily tasks for some time now.
Secretary Moli nodded: “I have.”
“Tell me about it.”
Lucas said, unable to leave this small resort for a while, he could only stay updated on Lin Chuan, waiting for an opportunity to strike at him again with the force of thunder!
“Lin Chuan, he…”
Secretary Moli raised her head, her eyes meeting Lucas’, and her words faltered.
“What’s with him?” Lucas asked.
“He’s watching you,” Secretary Moli answered.
“Watching me?”
Lucas’ brows furrowed, his expression froze.
How is Lin Chuan watching me?
How can he see me?
Her words sounded strange.
She smiled: “Yes, Lin Chuan is watching you. He has been watching you ever since you left the office.”
Lucas’ face changed instantly, his brow furrowed deeply.
This was not the Moli he knew!
Right away,
Lucas took a step towards Moli, his voice clear amid the sound of the waves crashing on the shore:
“Clarify what you’re saying!”
“What do you want to hear?” Moli, instead of stepping back, looked steadily at Lucas, a cold smile appearing on her face.
“What’s your relationship with Lin Chuan?” Even Lucas, foolish as he may be, could tell that his long-time secretary was problematic!
“I have no relationship with him, but if there is any, it was just a collaboration,” Moli said with a cold laugh.
“Collaboration?”
