When the person finally appeared at the door, Michael couldn't hide anymore; there was no point in trying to escape. After all, this was a client that the boss valued, and there was no way he could slip away."I didn't expect Miss Hutton to come as well, Mr. Gavin. Is there anything our PR department can assist you with?" Michael smiled warmly, his tone brimming with enthusiasm. Gavin gave Michael a quick once-over. It seemed like he had adapted quite well, but Gavin felt a sense of disdain. No wonder someone like him could still hold on despite being past his prime."Oh, it's nothing much. I'm just showing Miss Hutton around the company, giving her a brief tour. Besides, Miss Hutton wants to know about some matters, and the information will need to come from you, Michael."As Gavin spoke, Michael felt a strong urge to ignore him, but with Ashley Ward right there, he had to maintain a facade of friendliness.A man who was barely hanging on thanksto his wife was quite the show-off."I

"Wait a minute. Never mind, just come to my office for a moment. I need to talk to you," Mr. Caldwell said. Once they entered the office, Mr. Caldwell sat back in his chair, while Michael found himself sitting on his lap.Mr. Caldwell ran his hand along Michael's thigh, the smoothness of which was enhanced by the stockings."I need to tell you something. Lately, keep a closer eye on Gavin. Just now, Miss Hutton came by, and to be honest, it wasn't just an investment visit. She was really here to talk to Gavin. They're pushing us to lend more support, and I don't trust anyone else, so I want to assign you to Gavin."As Mr. Caldwell spoke, he gave Michael a playful squeeze on the thigh. Michael's expression changed. What did Mr. Caldwell mean by saying Miss Hutton was there to speak on his behalf? He had always thought the situation was as he expected-that Miss Hutton was genuinely interested in investing, but just in a minor way."So Miss Hutton really said that? Looks like Gavin is qu

They arrived on the fourth floor and found a crowd gathered outside the hospital room, all familiar faces. Standing next to the doctor and the lawyer was a large family, with Robison and Uriel being the most noticeable. Ava anxiously spoke up, "So, what's going on, doctor? Is my grandfather awake?" The doctor glanced around the room and said, "It looks like all the family members are here. If everyone is present, we can slowly enter the room and make the announcement."He looked at the lawyer beside him, and his tone was surprisingly similar to that of a lawyer. Ava didn't want to ask any more questions, so she kept her mouth shut and stood quietly to the side. Clearly, the others had arrived much earlier. Thinking about this, Mrs. Solara felt a bit annoyed. She had been urging Thomas to drive faster, but that guy was so slow that it allowed thesepeople to get ahead. Thomas, for some reason, felt a sense of calm seeing the doctor like this. He glanced around and noticed thatRobison

The fact that they were able to send this message proved that they also took thismatter seriously and were afraid something might go wrong. The two sides were set to meet. In the past, Robison would have absolutely refused to agree to this, but things were different now. They needed to meet touncover the truth. With that thought in mind, there was no reason to hesitate any longer.Someone had been impersonating him, and he certainly wasn't happy about it. To make matters worse, it was a familiar face involved in the kidnapping."Robison, do you know him? I heard that guy has already sent a deposit, and it's a substantial amount of money." The person beside him glanced at his expression, clearly recognizing the name. If he didn't know him, he would have shown more urgency. He did know him, but that didn't mean his confusion was resolved. After all, Gavin had recently gotten himself into some trouble, and there were plenty of people looking to take revenge on him."That's Gavin, the h

He received a response to his email, which indicated that the other party was taking this matter very seriously. Although they hadn't agreed on a specific location yet, he had clearly stated that he wanted to choose the place himself. Surprisingly, the other side was quite accommodating, suggesting they were genuinely anxious about the situation. Zach watched the email exchanges closely, and it dawned on him that they were indeed dealing with kidnappers. Fear began to creep in even more. Looking at Robison's expression, Zach could tell that he was determined to catch whoever was behind this. Zach felt a knot in his stomach; he couldn't bring himself to say anything. He could only blame himself for getting involved in that gambling mess in the first place.Getting mixed up in that had led to a huge financial loss, and on top of that, other issues had arisen. Unfortunately, all of these problems had come to light in front of their father, and Zach had even taken something from him. The
