16. The CEO's Midnight Encrypted Meeting
It was late. Yulia believed Lu Chen had entered the "death state of sleep" and was preparing to begin her "alchemy research."
However, Lu Chen's ultra-encrypted satellite phone suddenly rang. The phone required a voice password to wake, and Yulia was unaware of its existence.
Lu Chen quickly answered, keeping his voice extremely low. A cold electronic voice came from the other end—his secret meeting system with Aethel Group's core decision-makers.
"Target locked. Must complete the aggressive acquisition by tomorrow morning. Leave no room for retreat." Lu Chen's voice carried the ruthless tone of a market dominator.
"Implement full sanctions on competitors. Eradicate them completely to secure the monopoly," every command he issued was worth billions of dollars.
Yulia heard it.
Her vampire hearing captured those "lethal phrases." She instantly froze, her blood seemingly congealing.
17. The Tragic Fate of the Puppet CEO
Yulia's mind instantly completed the plot:
• "Target locked": means the black-market boss is demanding he lock onto an innocent person for assassination.
• "Aggressive acquisition": means forced human or o***************g.
• "Full sanctions, eradicate completely": means the g**g's execution list.
"He is truly a pitiful human!" Yulia's eyes welled up. She concluded that Lu Chen was a "Puppet CEO," controlled by a massive, unseen black-market organization. He pretended to be a servant by day but was forced to carry out these terrible orders by night.
Her protective urge for Lu Chen instantly transformed into fervent heroism. She vowed to use her ancient vampire power to rescue this innocent servant from the clutches of the modern black market.
