Chapter 430: Chapter 431 I’m Not That Stupid

His fingers clenched tight around his phone, Huangfu Jue’s anger furrowed his brows.

Catching his expression, Will swallowed hard and spoke softly.

"Sir, you... you must stay calm. You should know that the young lady was at the Duke Residence all night. As for the dinner incident... Miss Gan must have... had her reasons..."

"Dammit!"

Huangfu Jue cursed under his breath.

These past days, he had been worried about the media’s reaction to Gan Yuan and Gan Tang, hence every step had been taken with great thought and carefully arranged; he just didn’t want any harm to come to them.

Yet, everything had still come to pass.

He was, of course, aware of Gan Yuan’s innocence, but would others believe her?

With National Day around the corner, Gan Yuan’s identity had already attracted countless attentions, and he had planned to formally introduce her to everyone during the celebrations.

At such a critical moment, to have such news break out was unimaginable, and she would become the target of public criticism.

He could control the mainstream media, but in the age of the internet, controlling the spread of information was simply impossible. If extreme measures were used, it could escalate the situation beyond repair and even provide enemies who were already skeptical of him with ammunition to make a big fuss.

Frowning, Huangfu Jue tossed the phone back to Will and quickly made a decision.

"Find the source of this news immediately."

Having said that, he strode towards the door.

This couldn’t be a moment of rage causing him to go back and vent his anger on Gan Yuan, could it?

"Sir!" Will followed after him, "Please, don’t be rash. This could just be a baseless rumor, and the photos might be fabricated..."

Huangfu Jue’s hand grasped the doorknob, "Arrange the car, I’m going to meet someone."

Seeing that he didn’t seem like he was going back to the Duke Residence to find Gan Yuan, Will breathed a sigh of relief, "Whom are you going to meet, sir?"

Huangfu Jue narrowed his blue eyes, "Moses."

The heart that Will had just settled jumped to his throat again, "Moses?! You... You don’t actually suspect Miss Gan, do you?"

"I’m not that stupid!" Huangfu Jue opened the door, "Dial his number."

"But..." Faced with the man’s gaze, Will stopped the persuasion on the tip of his tongue, quickly grabbed the folder from the desk, and chased after him while dialing Moses’ number on his phone.

As early as this morning, Huangfu Jue had ordered to look into Moses, so knowing his contact number obviously wasn’t a difficult task.

The call was quickly connected, and Moses’ assistant answered.

After hearing Will’s purpose, the assistant immediately walked into the meeting room and handed the phone to Moses, whispering in his ear.

"Your call, sir, from the Duke."

Huangfu Jue?

Moses took the receiver, gestured for those present to wait, and rose to step into a smaller conference room within the partition, while the assistant hurried to close the door.

Moses put the phone to his ear.

"Hello?"

"This is Huangfu Jue." On the other end of the line, the man’s voice was deep, "I need to meet you."

Moses replied evenly, "I’m busy."

"In half an hour, on the rooftop of Empire Tower, I’ll wait for you."

The line went dead right after.

Moses handed back the phone to his assistant and turned to go back into the main conference room.

"Sir." The assistant called out to him, "There’s another matter, concerning... Miss Gaia."

Moses, who had been continuing towards the main conference room, stopped in his tracks and looked back at the assistant upon hearing Gan Yuan’s name.

"What about her?"
