Chapter 457

Lisa had a strong character. She peeked at Liam and said stubbornly, "I'm sorry. I work for Mr. Hunt.

Why should I take orders from a nobody like you? V

Lisa was not the only one-all the employees in H Group found Liam an eyesore. He was regarded as

the greatest culprit who wrecked the love affair between Renee and Stefan. They wanted nothing but to

drive him away.

Renee took a deep breath and tried her best to calm herself down. She gently told Lisa, "Please ask

that security guard to come here."

Lisa nodded immediately, "Okay, Mrs. Hunt. I'll call him over now."

At times, Renee's command worked much better than Stefan's in H Group. Everyone obeyed her

without question.

That was the great charm of her personality.

The security guard came to the lobby of the company after a while.

When he saw Renee, he got down on his knees immediately and hurriedly said, "Mrs. Hunt, I know

nothing. I just acted kindly and brought the kid to the lounge to rest, but I don't know where he went

afterward or who took him away. If something happened, it has nothing to do with me."

"Calm down. I'm not here to punish you," Renee spoke quietly. "I just want to know what the boy

experienced and find him as soon as possible."

"Umm... This..."

The security guard trembled all over. He dared not look into Renee's eyes as he stammered, "I...I saw

a boy alone outside the company yesterday, so I ran over and asked him where his parents were. He

told me that his father works here, and he was waiting for him to get off work. I was worried that he

might bump into bad guys, so I took him to the lounge to let him wait for his father. But he went missing

the moment I turned around... I'm telling the truth. I'm not lying! Mrs. Hunt, you must trust me."

The security guard guessed that the boy's identity was special, and he feared he might be implicated.

After all, he was the one who brought the child into the company. If something were to happen to him,

he would not be able to clear his name. He might have even done the kid a great disservice.

"So, the last time you saw him was at the lounge of H Group?"

Renee confirmed with the security guard.

"Yes, I wanted to get some snacks for him, but he was already gone when I returned to the lounge. I

thought his father had come to pick him up, so I didn't think much about it."

"Okay, I got it. Go back to your work now."

Renee felt that he was telling the truth, so she did not make things too difficult for him.

She then asked Lisa, "Can I check out your surveillance videos?"

"Err..."

Lisa appeared to be in a dilemma. "Yes, I can show you the public zone, but only Mr. Hunt has the

power to check out the superior zone. However, we can't reach him now, so..."

"Then let's check out the public zone first."

As for the superior zone, she could hack into it at any time, given how weak the security system of H

Group was.

"No problem. I'll take you to the technical department now."

They went to the technical department on the third floor of the building. Based on the retrieved

surveillance video, Adie did go to H Group. With his strong countersurveillance skill, however, he had

managed to avoid all the surveillance cameras on his way.

Alas, he made a careless mistake, and he was seen taking the president's exclusive elevator to the top

floor of H Group, where the president's office was located.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Hunt. We don't have the right to retrieve surveillance videos in the presidential zone.

We need his permission, so... Why don't you contact him first?"

Lisa suggested carefully.

"That won't be necessary."

A voice came from behind them. A tall and handsome man walked over
