Married Contract With You, My Perfect Husband Chapter 156
Advertisement
Harry was now busy in the middle of a room consisting of a large table with long rows of chairs and filled with several people he had deliberately asked to gather. They were in a room that was painted white and looked clean to highlight their clothes which in fact were all black.
Harry asked everyone to pass on any information they could get. After previously he had assigned each of them a job.
A man with long tied-up hair with his thin glasses, nicknamed Luan, voiced his information first. Made everyone seem to be listening. The man said in a relaxed yet serious manner.
"I've tracked down the woman's whereabouts. But it doesn't seem to find any data. She seems to have drowned somewhere," Luan said while reading the report.
In their team, Luan was always on duty to track IP or any technical data including tracking someone's whereabouts.
Harry didn't seem too happy with the answer. But didn't say much because he knew how great Luan was. Harry couldn't do much if the man was having trouble finding someone.
Harry was only surprised by one thing.
"How did it happen? Is there someone who is hiding her?" Harry asked cluelessly. It was not that easy to hidden someone if that person can have a tracking device inside.
Even just from the last point, the woman disappeared. Their team should be able to find at least some information. Yet Luan just said that he didn't get many clues?
"As you know yourself, this woman called Aretta doesn't have many relatives here. Even though there was someone who might help her, there was only one, which is her uncle who was in Bali. I'm pretty sure that she couldn't have just run away as soon as she failed and wouldn't try again. And the possibility that we still haven't targeted her as a suspect is certainly quite high."
"That means, you're saying that she's hiding from someone else?" Harry asked, quickly caught Luan's meaning.
Luan nodded. Confirmed to Harry's words. Then he spoke again.
"That's why we need to know what triggers her to hide somewhere and from whom she wants to hide. That woman certainly knows better than we do," Luan's words darkened Harry's face even more.

Harry then listened to information from the others.
A brown-haired man with turtleneck clothes and spiked hair handed Harry a report. The man stared with his thick eyebrows.
"This is the result of my interview with all of your construction workers. They said they were told that they would get a lot of rewards if they worked like sleepless monsters. The contract they signed has obviously been modified," Reihan who also worked for Harry, explained the cases.
Had a legal title behind his name. Reihan understood much more than Harry did about the law and all the psychological aspects of the workers they had instigated. Reihan had also studied sociology to psychology.
And immediately conducted a personal interview with each of the demonstrators when Dirga contacted him about the construction incident.
Had time to feel relieved because there were no significant incidents.
Another man dressed more formally but casually joined in on the voice.
"If this is true, it is the result of the behavior of one person, which is that woman. She is clearly very smart to carry out her action," Alfin was summing up his ideas.
Harry looked at him slightly surprised.
"How did it happen?"
Alfin immediately adjusted his words.
"The Aretta we know is not that smart. But she suddenly became very smart and evil beyond our imagination. Don't you suspect someone is controlling her?" Alfin asked, while thinking quickly.
Alfin really liked to play puzzles and guess them. Summarised the mysteries in a story told by people. He liked to dig up a lot of deeper information about anything.
So it was not surprising that Alfin can quickly read Harry's gesture of liking Cleo. Aretta's attitude and actions that he met a few years ago were clearly very different from this time. Can time change a person?
Harry also thought about the possibility. Until he concluded a few things.
"We seem to have the main enemy who deliberately uses Aretta to complete the wishes. Deliberately causing a lot of trouble around me and started wanting to get in the way with me. The plan this time seems to have failed too," said Harry, who had monitored all of the person's work activities several times.
That person deliberately wanted to attack his massive project to bring him down. Continued to wreak havoc on not only the workers but also some supplies until the annoying waste issue.

Harry recalled some of the problems Dirga had reported to him. Some of their colleagues seemed to want to bad-mouth his names to bring down his business. Spreading rumors to everyone that the building land he got came from an illegal way until the issue of bribery began to be heard in recent days.
Harry had to continue to work overtime to take care of this problem. And initially only considered this as a small stumbling block when he was developing his career to be wider. Of course, many other business partners were not happy with his success.
So that he had once assigned anyone who might want to bring him down. Arthur seemed to join to voice the data he managed to trace. He handed Harry another file.
"These are the names of other businessmen who are under you. And also some of your competitors seem to be benefiting if your project fails this time. The 'Deluxe Project' also wanted to be launched by company A, but he failed to initiate it first because the idea was still minimal."
Harry read all of Arthur's reports.
Until a name caught his eye, Harry's brows furrowed slightly.
"Robbyanto from Yugio Entainment?" reading Harry at the first line that caught his attention. Harry couldn't understand why that name would appear on a list of who his competitors were and who might be got the benefit.
Arthur explained his perspective. While Harry just listened.
"He is indeed the most minimized candidate as the mastermind of all your recent misfortunes. But his sudden appearance around you even brought that woman over, isn't it enough to attract attention and suspicion?" Arthur asked, deliberately provoked them to make everyone think freely.
"Robbyanto Yugio does have a clean, neat, and honest work history so far. But this man may get the benefit from your situation," Arthur said again with all of his analysis.
Reihan asked in surprise.
"But if the 'Deluxe Project' this time fails. Wouldn't his company also suffer a huge loss?" asked Reihan who honestly didn't really understand the mindset of a businessman. And so far only learned a lot from Harry in managing his finances.
Reihan was grateful that his cafe was growing well without him having to think hard. Alfin who also didn't understand, agreed with Reihan's words. The two stared doubtfully at Arthur's argument.
Harry himself was actually starting to get suspicious of Robby. But felt the man could not possibly have a reason to harm him. Harry seemed interested in Arthur's thoughts.
"So that's why you put him on the suspect list?" Harry asked curiously. He wanted to ask more about it if there was another reason.
"Wait a minute," Luan suddenly thought of a crazy possibility. Everyone seemed interested in what he said next.
"I seem to be able to guess something. Could it be that Aretta is hiding out of fear of Robby?" Luan's asked made everyone look serious. None of them answered.
Until Luan resumed her words.
"He must be afraid if Robby is making calculations with her because she's already hurt his son! Wasn't it only recently that Robbyanto recognized his son as his legitimate son? Even Robby reportedly deliberately put Willy's name in the line of inheritance later, when he was no longer around. Doesn't this show how much the man cares about his son?" Luan's perception surprised everyone but was well received by everyone.
Arthur increasingly believed in his clever idea.
"Bingo! Aretta must have mistakenly thought that Robby's son had been seriously injured by her. And she's deliberately hiding to avoid prosecution. I can't believe we can go on thinking and acting like a bunch of Sherlock Holmes. Our abilities are just growing, aren't we?!" said Arthur, pleased to be able to deduce many riddles.
Arthur and Alfin often compete in solving many mystery puzzle games. Alfin now recognized Arthur's fast and powerful instincts. But still, doubt one thing.
"If it is true that man is the mastermind behind all of this trouble. What exactly is the trigger? Have you ever displeased the man?" Alfin asked with a million question marks while looking at Harry.
Alfin must have thought Harry might have offended the man on purpose because he himself had received so many insulting words from him, but never took it to heart because he was always so open-minded.
