Chapter 1549: Chapter 1548 There are Really a Lot of Things_1

Henry Ford had indeed treated Peter Brown to a good meal before returning to the construction site.

Today’s events had shown Peter a potential direction for his development. From now on, it seemed Henry’s favor towards him would definitely increase, and with just a bit more effort, he could naturally become a trusted confidant.

Having been through several lifetimes, Peter possessed numerous strategies. Now, Peter also had a clear direction, which was to rise in the company using his own intelligence. This should also serve as a means of tempering his mind.

With this thought in mind, Peter devoted all his energy to this endeavor.

Peter had his suspicions that for Henry to become the manager of the branch office, it was impossible for him not to have someone backing him. Even more so, the person behind him was likely a key figure. Gaining his favor would be very beneficial, both for his uncle and for himself.

As for why he had to follow Henry, Peter felt he had no choice; there was simply no other option. If not him, then who else could he follow? Besides, Peter didn’t want to be expelled from his job just as he was starting.

When he returned to the construction site, it was already night. Apart from the duty personnel at the gate, there were no outsiders on-site, and Peter had nothing to do. He turned on his computer and resumed his investigative actions.

Ivy Cooper’s computer was certainly the first target of his investigation. Although the girl was secretive, Peter’s computer skills were not lacking, and he quickly broke through her computer’s defenses and also opened her QQ.

This time, Peter aimed to enter Ivy’s QQ Space. He knew that this beauty often wrote things there, but no one knew what she wrote because it was password-protected.

The password was quickly cracked by Peter, and then he saw that there was a diary entry for every day.

As he flipped through the pages, Peter’s expression grew increasingly unpleasant. To his utter surprise, this seemingly kind beauty ridiculed him extensively in her diary. Everything he did seemed laughable to her, even his surreptitious glances did not escape her notice; she mentioned in her diary that he seemed like someone longing to eat "Swan Meat."

The more he read, the angrier Peter became. Any unease he might have felt about reporting her was now completely dispelled.

Sitting there for a long time, Peter gained a deeper understanding of Ivy. It turned out the girl did not come from a wealthy family, but was merely from County Town, and her parents were both retirees. She harbored a desire for power and wealth, and it happened that during university, she inadvertently became involved with Theodore Smith, the vice president of the head office. Eventually, she became his mistress, and her placement in the branch office was a promise of a vice president position. He told her that all she needed was to familiarize herself with the work, and then he would help her climb the ranks step by step. The first step was to become the head of the Integrated Office, then the deputy manager, and eventually, the manager.

It was apparent that Theodore had everything planned out. After bringing down Henry, Christian would take over, and then he would appoint her as the head of the Integrated Office.

No wonder she has been so eager lately!

Peter realized that the diary even reflected her plans for the Integrated Office; she was certainly planning to eliminate him, a person connected to his uncle. Not only that, but his uncle would also be ousted from the project by Christian.

Indeed, his suspicions were correct, danger was already lurking in the shadows!

Having seen all this, Peter logged out of her computer and looked in the direction of Reid Nelson.

As he looked over, Peter couldn’t help but start to invade Reid Nelson’s computer; he wanted to see what her thoughts were.

It had to be said that Reid was also very charming, with a certain mature allure. The reason Peter had focused more on Ivy was simply because he thought Ivy was unmarried; otherwise, Reid was no less impressive than Ivy.

The program was launched, and Peter easily accessed Reid’s computer as well.

However, Peter Brown had long known that Reid Nelson didn’t like writing diaries or anything of the sort, and her Space Domain was available for anyone to view. What Peter was mainly interested in was what kind of things this woman would talk about on QQ.

Opening Reid Nelson’s QQ, Peter found that she was in contact with quite a few people. However, her frequent conversations were with the deputy manager, Vincent Clinton.

When Peter sifted through the conversation between them, he sat there in shock, recalling some knowledge about officialdom from the books he had read. Peter began to find the situation rather strange.

Logically speaking, as the head of the Integrated Office, Reid should be one of Henry Ford’s talents, so why was this woman so close to Vincent Clinton instead?

Of course, it wasn’t as if they were genuinely close. Peter noticed it was more like Vincent Clinton pursuing Reid Nelson, and the woman was merely using some tactics to handle him.

Vincent Clinton was the one engaging in flirtatious talk, and recently he even hinted that there might be changes at the branch. He said that without his protection, Reid might not be able to keep her director position and could even be pushed out of the branch.

Seeing this, Peter’s headache returned. He felt things at the branch were getting complicated. It would be wrong to say that Henry Ford was unaware. Vincent’s implications to Reid were enough to suggest that Henry Ford’s situation was very serious, and he could be taken down at any moment.

No wonder Reid Nelson also seemed deeply troubled lately.

Reflecting on the report he made to Henry Ford through his uncle, Peter felt that it didn’t really assist in Henry Ford’s situation but merely confirmed to Henry Ford that Peter and his uncle were on his side.

This couldn’t continue!

The more Peter thought about it, the more uneasy he became. From the information gathered from both sides, it seemed quite likely that Henry Ford being taken down was a foregone conclusion, but even now, Peter had no idea why Henry Ford might be taken down.

Exiting Reid Nelson’s computer, Peter sat there carefully analyzing the information he had obtained.

From this intel, it was clear that there were three leaders in the branch, one principal and two deputies, each with their own agenda. It was unclear whose side Reid truly belonged to as her position was unstable. Christian Greenhill and Ivy Cooper were in cahoots, which left no room for doubt. They were the Opposition Party, actively waging a campaign against Henry Ford. Deputy manager Vincent Clinton very likely joined forces with Mason Woods’ faction.

These relational dynamics indicated that both Peter and his uncle were just cannon fodder; once something happened to Henry Ford, a dismissal was inevitably awaiting them.

Therefore, saving Henry Ford was tantamount to saving himself!

Peter now felt certain about his own predicament. In this affair, no matter what action he took, his own future depended solely on Henry Ford’s safety.

First, he needed to understand the situation to see if he could offer any help.

Peter was aware of his own capabilities. For him, his only asset was his hacker knowledge. What he needed to do now was to rapidly elucidate the entirety of the situation.

Christian Greenhill was definitely key. Peter’s task now was to hack into Christian Greenhill’s computer to observe what kind of conversations he had with others.

Of course, there was another method: tapping Christian Greenhill’s phone calls. In this area, Peter could also create a small program to implant into Christian Greenhill’s cell phone.

To think was to act. Peter no longer wanted to think too much; he just started typing quickly on his computer.
