My Beloved Has Risen from Death’s Embrace

Chapter 384

A conversation could be heard from the other side.

Cedric: "Boss, the head of IM has scheduled a meeting with you for Saturday. I've set it up at Horizon Ventures Ltd."

"Mhm."

[Wait did I just hear that correctly? Boss? Was that Mr. Lockwood's voice just now?]

[Yes, yes, yes! That deep, magnetic, and oh-so-sexy voice, it's definitely Mr. Lockwood!!

(Oh my, boss? Could it be Mr. Lockwood is a president? You've got to be kidding!]

10MG, ladies, check out what I've just found! Orion, twenty years bld, the youngest billionaire in the history of Crestwood, CEO and chairman of the Lockwood Group, with ventures including Horizon Ventures Ltd. He rarely makes public appearances. Could it really be Mr. Lockwood?)

[No way! For real? Mr. Lockwood is Orion? The top hidden billionaire Crestwood? This has got to be some kind of fantasy drama, right?) [Absolutely! I just Googled a photo of the Lockwood Group's old chairman. Even though he's over 70, you can totally see the resemblance in his eyes and eyebrows. He must be Instructor Lockwood's grandfather!]

[I'm losing it, Mr. Lockwood is actually a super-rich third-generation heir. With a flick of his wrist, he could buy out Adventure Blitz: Two Days, One Night. Going on there must have been specifically to chase Xan, right?]

[Mystery solved! The domineering and cunning big boss turns into a warm- hearted instructor, madly pursuing the top-tier heiress. I am so here for this!]

[Help! This dramatic plot twist has totally blown me away. And we were worried a commoner couldn't match up to Xan, but it turns out we were the fools. Mr. Lockwood is so cunning, chasing his love under a disguise!]

[Top-tier business tycoon VS top-stream gorgeous star, I'm so invested. I'm losing my mind over this couple!]

"Hello?"

After the brief tall, the sound of the man approached came through the microphone.

To prevent him from immediately calling out "Xannie," Xanthea quickly raised her voice, "Mr. Lockwood, hope I'm not disturbing you?"

As expected, there was a one-second pause, then his tone turned distant and polite, "Ms. Nightshade, hello."

Bingo!

Xanthea mentally gave herself a high-five, credit to the top tycoon for being smart and perceptive, catching on with just a single address!

She cheerfully glanced at the task card Orange was holding up high, and read out, "I think I left something at your place."

Next, he just needed to say What is it? Then she would finish the cheesy line, and she'd hang up immediately, not giving gossip columnists or ship fans a chance to catch any rumors!

Huh?

Say it!

Why wasn't he saying anything?

Hearing nothing from the other end, Xanthea thought her phone might have malfunctioned. She moved closer and turned the volume up to maximum.

Meanwhile, in the Twin Towers, in the CEO's office bathed in the resplendent sunset glow, them happiest person in the world was watching the live stream, unblinkingly staring at the curious, beautiful girl who moved closer to her phone.

"I know."

Xanthea: "Huh?"

"Last night's underwear. I've already washed it for you."

In an instant, the whole Internet heard it!
