Chapter 96: Emergency(1/3)
When Abel came out of the small room with an expressionless expression, both Dwayne and Alexander looked at him.
"What happened?" Alexander asked in a deep voice.
Abel responded: "Nothing. But I have to go back to New York. There is urgent business there."
After finishing speaking, Abel looked at Dwayne and said, "Mr. Dwayne, I would like to trouble you about the relocation of Alais Company and my other company."
"No problem," Dwayne said.
"Then I'll leave first." Abel said to Alexander.
"Don't you go back and see your mother? Emily has been very busy recently," Alexander said.
Abel shook his head gently, and then said: "No. After the things here are settled, I will come back often in the future."
"Okay." Alexander, who is not a mother-in-law, said, "Then you go and do your own business."
"Okay. Goodbye, Father. Goodbye, Mr. Dwayne."
"goodbye."
Coming out of the office, Abel saw David Jones and several bodyguards chatting with several people in Alexander's campaign office.
After he came out, he said very directly: "David and Lincoln stay.
Whatever I want you to do next, I will tell you via email and phone later."
"Edward and Johnson, Lin, let's go."
Just give me a brief explanation and wait until Alexander and Dwayne come out.
Abel has left Alexander's office.
"Abel looks like he's in some trouble?" Dwayne said.
Alexander: "How do I know? But I believe him because he is my son."
"All right."
Dwayne shrugged, "Let's go and call John and the others in.
We need to discuss how we can get Mr. Smith’s money into our account in a safe way.”
Alexander nodded, turned around and returned to the office first.
Abel, for his part, quickly left Fort Worth.
In the meantime, I contacted American Express staff at the Fort Worth-Dallas Airport.
The Gulfstream G400 he was riding in when he arrived has not left yet.
I can just take this plane back to New York directly.
About an hour and a half later, amid the huge engine sound of the Gulfstream G400.
The plane took off and flew towards the east coast.
In the cabin, Abel looked at the mobile phone and satellite phone on the table in front of him.
In this hour, he had figured out what was going on in New York.
As told by David Mellon, Financial Crimes Unit of the Manhattan District Attorney's Office.
Not long ago, I led a raid on Smith Capital.
They had a search warrant, and Smith Capital's security couldn't stop them.
It is illegal to stop it, and it will be more likely to be unclear later.
These people then entered Smith Capital and summoned a Smith Capital employee named Sophia and Jess.
These two people have not been working in the company for a long time. One was four months ago and the other was three months ago.
Well, actually the employees who come to work in the company don’t work long hours.
After all, it has only been about six months since the company was established.
The Financial Crime Investigation Team claimed that they had evidence of certain financial crimes against the two men.
They said they wanted to investigate these two people and suspected that Smith Capital was related to these two cases. They needed to take away the information related to Smith Capital and the two people and investigate the account books.
In the words of David Mellon, everything is in compliance with regulations.
Whether it's federal law, state law, or Manhattan's own laws.
The other party's procedures are very formal, and similar things happen on Wall Street almost every week.
It’s just that this time it happened to Smith Capital.
David’s actual words were: “It’s not a big deal, they can’t find anything.
But it's a signal, and it's unclear what they want to convey to us.
So you’d better come back first.”
In addition, Abel also had a phone call with Smith Capital's chief legal officer and his chief personal counsel, Caroline.
The other party has rushed to Smith Capital and said that it is already understanding the whole story of this incident.
He also promised that he would find out within half an hour and then tell him.
At present, this is the situation.
But on the plane, Abel felt a little irritable.
While he was irritated, the satellite phone placed in front of him rang.
Generally speaking, mobile phones are not allowed to be turned on when flying.
Because after the mobile phone is turned on, the mobile phone will automatically search for signal frequency bands.
These frequency bands happen to be similar to many frequency bands of aircraft towers.
Mobile phones searching for signals can easily interfere with the aircraft tower, ultimately affecting the connection between the aircraft and the tower, and causing accidents.
This problem will be solved as technology develops more and more.
But now, even a private jet.
Ordinary mobile phones are still not allowed to be opened.
Unless you are willing to take risks, you are not afraid of problems with your phone.
Fortunately, rich people have solutions for rich people.
Instead of using ordinary mobile phones, the rich can choose to use satellite phones.
Satellite phones use satellite signals directly and will not affect the aircraft.
". hello?"
He turned on the somewhat bulky satellite phone and heard the voice of lawyer Caroline.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Smith. I was remiss in asking you to come back from Texas."
"Madam, now is not the time to say these words." Abel said:
"Can you tell me what happened?"
"I contacted Robert Morgenthau and he acknowledged that he issued the investigative order."
"But this guy told me that Sophia Kender and Jace Bledsoe will be released the day after tomorrow at the latest.
And Smith Capital won’t have any problems, because you don’t have any problems yourself.”
Caroline said.
Hearing what he said, Abel on the plane couldn't help but frown.
He ran to his company and arrested two people from his company.
Then he said that there was nothing wrong with his company.
Just a routine investigation.
Even if that's true, what does it mean?
He said: "Ma'am, I don't care whether Sophia and Jace will be acquitted or Bell will go to jail.
Since they committed the crime, they are no longer employees of Smith Capital.
They have nothing to do with me."
"What I'm concerned about is that you already said it last time and this incident is over."
"Then why did they come to my company without telling you and me when I was not around?"
"Can't they inform you first?"
"I'm more concerned about this than whether anything happened to those two criminals."
"Ma'am, do you think they tricked you, or..."
He didn't say anything clearly, but Caroline knew what he meant.
To be continued...
