Chapter 296: The Case Finally Moves Forward
Salman merely chuckled and shook his head.Jonathan smiled at his mother's reaction before turning toward his father.“Oh, right, Dad. By the way,” Jonathan continued, reaching for his glass, “our court hearing begins tomorrow. So you need to get ready and cooperate with Tania, our lawyer. Don't be nervous.”Salman stopped moving his hand.“A court hearing? Tomorrow? Don't joke around, son,” he said, clearly finding it hard to believe. “The court wouldn't even accept our complaint before. Have you forgotten?”“I'm not joking.” Jonathan leaned back casually. “I've already found someone to help us. Today, Hendri Wian, the City Party Committee Secretary, personally came to Pacific Group to meet me.”Crack!Marina's chopsticks slipped from her hand and fell onto the floor.“W-What?” Marina's eyes widened. “The... City Party Committee Secretary? Hendri Wian? He came here personally to meet you?”She immediately stood up, reached for Jonathan's forehead, and kept her hand there for a long m
Chapter 295: A Dinner Full of Questions
That evening, the atmosphere in Dina's dining room felt heavy. The usually warm glow of the chandelier seemed to dim along with Dina's gloomy expression. She stared at the food in front of her without the slightest appetite.“Dina, why do you look so down? Is something wrong at work?” her mother asked, frowning as she noticed her daughter staring at her rice without touching it.Before Dina could answer, her father, Kenny, joined in while putting down his spoon.“That's right, dear. You just got home from work, and you're already looking so gloomy. Did something happen?”Dina let out a long sigh, her shoulders drooping.“How can I not be upset? One phone call from Dad earlier ruined everything. The award ceremony that was just around the corner is gone, and my leave has been canceled too.”Her mother widened her eyes.“What? Why did they have to cancel everything like that?”She turned to look at her husband.“Oh, about that. I didn't do it intentionally,” Kenny quickly explained befo
Chapter 294: Jonathan's Mysterious Senior Brothers
Before leaving, Hendri straightened his suit and looked at Jonathan with a serious expression.“Mr. Jonathan,” he said in a quiet but firm voice, “I promise you that this matter will be resolved as quickly as possible.”Jonathan merely nodded casually. “I believe you, sir. I've never doubted the work of officials with integrity.”Hendri nearly choked when he heard the compliment. He understood perfectly well what lay behind those words. It was a subtle warning from a young man who could make the provincial government intervene within just a few hours.“If there's anything else in Savana City that you're dissatisfied with, contact me directly. Don't wait until the problem becomes more serious.”Hendri turned toward Yovan and instructed him, “Leave him my personal phone number.”Yovan immediately took out a business card and a small piece of paper.“This is Secretary Hendri's personal number. If anything comes up, at any time, please feel free to contact him directly.”Jonathan accepted
Chapter 293: Jonathan's Complaint
“Yes, sir,” Mella replied with a cautious nod. “He is my personal driver. Has something happened?”Hendri didn't answer her question. He simply said, “I want to meet him in person.”“Of course, sir. I'll call him right away.” Felinia immediately moved to leave, but after she had taken only two steps, Hendri raised his hand.“There's no need.” He stood up. “I want to go there myself. The two of you can wait here.”“But...” Mella instinctively started to rise.“Don't bother. I don't want to cause a commotion. Let only my secretary and me go.”He turned toward the man standing behind him.“Yovan, come with me.”“Yes, Secretary Hendri,” Yovan replied.Without giving Mella a chance to ask anything further, Hendri and Yovan quickly left the CEO's office.Meanwhile, in office 1918, Jonathan had just closed the report file Mella had asked him to review when he heard a knock at the door.Knock. Knock. Knock.The door opened, and two people walked in. One of them was a neatly dressed man whose
Chapter 292: The City Party Committee Secretary's Visit
That afternoon, Mella had just finished organizing the monthly report folders when she heard Felinia's hurried footsteps outside. Three knocks sounded against the door, but before Mella could respond, it swung open.“Ma'am... Ms. Mella...” Felinia spoke in a half-whisper, barely catching her breath. “There's a big problem! The City Party Committee Secretary... Mr. Hendri Wian... he's coming to Pacific Group for an inspection. In less than thirty minutes!” Her face was filled with panic.Mella was extremely startled and immediately stood up.“What? Secretary Wian? An inspection?” Her voice rose an octave. “Why so suddenly? Why wasn't there any prior notice? What's the reason? Is there a case? A complaint? Has someone filed a report?”Felinia quickly shook her head. She couldn't answer a single one of those questions.Then she said, “I've already asked the city's protocol department. They said they weren't given any details either. They were only instructed to prepare for his arrival.”
Chapter 291: An Unexpected Order
Dina stiffened. She had never heard an official of such high standing sound so desperate before.“A-A high-level order? What... what exactly is going on?”Hendra let out a frustrated sigh. “I can't explain over the phone! All I can tell you is that the entire city administration is being mobilized to meet him. Please, we need his address. Now!” he urged.Dina swallowed nervously. She glanced at Police Chief Aditya, who nodded to signal that she should answer.Dina hesitated for a few seconds. She knew Jonathan well enough to understand that he disliked being the center of attention. However, judging by Hendra's increasingly desperate tone, she had no other choice.Finally, she exhaled and spoke in a quiet but clear voice. “Jonathan... is at Pacific Group, on the nineteenth floor, in office 1918.”On the other end, Hendra seemed to let out a sigh of relief for the first time since the call had connected.“Good! Thank you, Officer Dina! Thank you! I'll head there immediately. If he's st
