Captivation: Want Nothing But You -
Chapter 1314
There, he saw Victor leaning against the headboard with his eyes closed.
The curtains in the bedroom were closed.
It was dark inside, but he was still able to see Victor’s deathly pale face.
“I just fetched your examination result.” Carson sneezed while speaking.
“Doesn’t look so bad.
It says here that you’ll be discharged from the hospital in two weeks’ time, and that you have to stay at home by then.”
It would take several months for the average man to recover from a fracture, let alone a man like Victor who almost lost his life.
During this month, all Victor had done was lay in bed, aside from the several times he refused to listen to the doctor’s advice and insisted on getting out of bed.
Additionally, he didn’t have to worry about the company’s business operations.
And for that, he was able to recover well.

He thought that he had read the report wrong, or perhaps the doctor had made a mistake.
Silence ensued in the room.
At this time, Victor shot Carson a sidelong glance.

It seems like he can’t wait any longer.

I’ll get it done, Victor.
Don’t worry.”
He then sat on the sofa and added, “Unfortunately, the investigative team has been trying to get some information out of us, and word of it is spreading like wildfire.
Sounds like the person pulling the strings is getting impatient.”
A moment of silence ensued between them.
“It’s time,” Victor replied.
Three days later, at ten in the morning, a report was broadcast by
TV news stations.
It was like a bomb that woke Apliaria up on Monday morning, causing an uproar in the business world.
News about the findings of the investigation of the Sullivan Group had proliferated through various media outlets.
“According to reports released at eight o’clock this morning, the Sullivan Group is engaged in jerry-building, tax evasion, and bribery.
Furthermore, there are problems in many of the company’s projects.
The investigation team, together with Apliaria’s discipline inspection department, has already summoned the people in charge of the disputed projects.
Meanwhile, the authorities have sent people to secure the ward where Victor
Sullivan, CEO of the Sullivan Group, is presently confined.
Until he is cleared for his involvement in the cases, he is not allowed to leave the ward and no one is allowed to visit him.
When the market opened, the Sullivan Group’s share price fell to its lowest price ever.
At 9:@8, the Sullivan Group is facing risk across multiple project defaults.
