Chapter 466: We're Going to Watch a Movie
On the sofa, Owen was enthusiastically telling a story when Eldie suddenly grabbed his hand and coquettishly said, "Uncle, I want to watch a movie. It's been so long since we've been to your cinema!"
Owen said, "I also want to take you, but your father... might not agree!"
"Bad daddy!" Eldie pouted and then lifted her little face, saying, "How about we make a deal? Whenever daddy leaves the house, you take us to watch a movie!"
Owen nodded decisively, "Alright! After all, a movie is just a little over an hour. It won't cause any trouble!"
"Great, let's continue listening to the story..." Eldie happily winked at Fifthie and Sixie.
In the dining room, Alexander finished folding the rabbit and fox and couldn't wait to stand up.
"Ethan, prepare the helicopter..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a security guard from the villa's entrance rushed over in a panic.
"Mr. Ashford, something bad has happened! The villa entrance is surrounded by reporters!"
"Surrounded?" Alexander was somewhat surprised. Did these reporters already know about Ivy being pregnant with Klay's child?
The security guard said, "I don't know who spread the news, but they said the Ashford family conglomerate has gone bankrupt. The reporters are here to interview about the reason for the bankruptcy!"
"Bankruptcy?" Alexander's face instantly turned grim. "Who released this news? Ethan, find out for me immediately!"
After operating the computer for a moment, Ethan's face turned pale as he said, "Alex, the company's system has been hacked..."
"What!" Alexander could hardly believe it. He immediately went to the study, preparing to check the situation on his own computer.
The children were all deeply worried, afraid that Alexander would uncover the truth.
Fortunately, at this moment, Alexander's phone rang. It was a call from a senior executive of the company.
"Mr. Ashford, please come to the company. Countless reporters have surrounded us, and we don't know who spread the news that our company is going bankrupt. If we let these reporters continue to report indiscriminately, the company will really go bankrupt. The stock price has been plummeting!"
"Who dares to oppose my Ashford family conglomerate! Let me find out who they are and destroy their entire lineage!"
Alexander lost his temper.
"Ethan, prepare the car!"
Just as they were about to leave, Alexander noticed that Leo seemed distracted and suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"Leo, come with me to the company! Big brother, stay here and take care of the children!"
"Oh!" Leo was extremely frustrated internally. He had planned to go to M Country alone to rescue Ivy, but plans couldn't keep up with changes after all!
Owen patted his chest to assure him, "Don't worry, little brother. With me here, the children will be fine!"
"Thank you."
"Big brother!" Alexander nodded.
Although Owen had made assurances, Alexander was still worried. He repeatedly reminded the bodyguards and the household staff, "Bodyguards, staff, chefs, everyone listen up! You must keep a close eye on the sextuplets and not let them step out of the door! If any accident occurs, don't blame me for turning ruthless!"
"Yes!" The bodyguards, chefs, and staff all responded in unison.
Just as Alexander had just left, Eldie said to Owen, "Uncle, dad has left. Take us to the movies!"
Owen looked somewhat helpless as he glanced at the bodyguards and others. "They probably won't let us leave!"
The six children frowned unhappily, glaring at the bodyguards.
There were six household staff, four chefs, and twenty bodyguards, a total of thirty people watching over the six of them!
In terms of quantity alone, the opposing side had a huge advantage.
Moreover, they were all adults while the six of them were just children!
But then again, they had the Magic Pearl!
Hehehe, mommy's precious gift, finally it could come in handy.
Sixie asked in a low voice, "Big sister, what do we do now?"
"First be polite, then employ force!" Eldie cleared her throat. "Ahem, listen up all thirty of you, we six are going to Uncle's movie theater to watch a movie. No matter what, you must let us pass!"
