CHAPTER 196
In the elevator from the top floor, thereThere were only two people: Lawrence and Miss Hutton. After a few seconds of silence, it was Miss Hutton who broke the ice. "What's going on with you lately? I saw your mood just now, and it seems like you're upset with me. When did we become so distant? If there's somethingon your mind, let's just talk about it openly instead of keeping it bottled up." Miss Hutton had noticed the change in Lawrence's demeanor. Their previous relationship had always felt like she was leaning on him, but now that she was the boss's secretary, the dynamic had shifted. Sometimes, it even felt like she had the upper hand, which made Lawrence uncomfortable. But Miss Hutton wanted to preserve their relationship. After all, Lawrence had helped her a lot in the past, and she had relied on him as her safety net. Now that she had climbed to a higher position, there was no way she would want to go back down."Lawrence, don't give me that speech. You know exactly what l'
CHAPTER 195
"Philip, can you still track that software? I think it might be out of signal. It seems like Robison has switched phones." Finally, the conversation shifted to him, and Lawrence glanced over, realizing that this guy might actually be useful."If he has switched phones, I can try linking it through a message and hiding it in a mini-program. It shouldn't be a big deal," Philip said, acknowledging that he was already in deep and deciding to just do his job quietly and efficiently. After all, he didn't want to complicate things further."Alright, give it your best shot," Thomas replied, clearly enjoying the situation. "Oh, and Miss Hutton, tell the legal department that the case involving the Meyer family has been automatically canceled. Mr. Meyer is awake now," Thomas added. Lawrence and Philip were both a bit lost on this topic, especially Lawrence, who had no idea what was going on. At least he had been to the hospital andwitnessed the chaos firsthand."Got it," Miss Hutton replied, t
CHAPTER 194
"I can't take any more time off from work. There's a mountain of tasks piling up, and while my boss has been understanding this time, I can't push my luck," Ava said, stretching lazily on the bed. She glanced at Thomas, feeling a rare sense of fatigue. The long break had thrown her routine completely off balance, and waking up early felt strangely disorienting."Maybe your boss will give you more time off. He was so reasonable last time; he might do it again," Thomas replied, trying to reassure her.Ava listened to him, rolling her eyes playfully as she quickly started tidying up. "Even though our home life is finally settling down, this isn't the time to slack off. Everything else can wait for now, but I need to focus on work. Let's go see our daughter this weekend; I haven't seen him in ages." With those words, her mind was made up. Thomas nodded, deciding not to argue further. He had received an email that morning detailing the time and place for a meeting. Meeting with that group
CHAPTER 193
A group of people were huddled together, murmuring and discussing a bunch of last-minute details, each wearing a grim expression. Just then, their leader returned. Dressed in ordinary clothes, this young man blended into the crowd, making it hard for anyone to suspect he was the head of akidnapping gang."Boss, did you find anything out there? You were gone for such a short time-only an hour," said a tall guy, stepping forward with a curious look. He was the leader of the three."What do you think? I just went to scout the place for the meeting the day after tomorrow. No need for the teacher to get involved; I can handle it myself," the leader replied. Kelvin turned to look back at him, surprised that the boss wanted to take matters into his own hands."Boss, are you serious? That's pretty dangerous. You can leave it to the three ofus; we can handle it. You just need to direct us from behind the scenes. No need to get personally involved," the tall guy insisted, clearly against the
CHAPTER 192
"I'll handle this my own way, so don't worry. That person won't get away with it. As for the others, the one we need to watch out for is Ava." Being pulled into the topic of inheritanceby his mother, Robison could already sense the tension in the air. The mention of Ava made him frown; it was a valid concern. "We can't dwell on this too much right now. Grandpa is clearly not happy about it," his mother continued, her voice tinged with worry.Robison didn't mention to his parents that the old man was pretending to be sick. The fewer people who knew about it, the better. He even regretted telling Uriel about it in the first place. If his grandfather found out, he would be aware of the situation and wouldn't let it slide easily. After all, there were some debts in the past that Robison had hoped would stayburied."I know, but things are different now. Just look at Grandpa's attitude; it's uncertain. I'm worried. We were supposed to get our share, and now out of nowhere, Ava and her mot
CHAPTER 191
The two of them had been running aroundto several locations for hours, and it was almost evening. Robison was furious but feltpowerless. He had been following Zach around in circles, and he still had no idea how to explain this situation. If he told anyone, they probably wouldn't believe him. But Robison's focus was clearly elsewhere."Can you keep up? We've only covered half the places we need to go today! Stop acting like you're dead weight over there!" Robison was blunt; the urgency of the situation was palpable. This guy was always dragging his feet. If only there were someone a bit more capable to help out, everything would be so much easier. Zach jogged over, feeling like he was definitely getting blisters on his feet. Running like this was really uncomfortable.He had never walked such a long distancebefore; he usually took a car. Shopping trips didn't require this much walking, especially since he didn't have a girlfriend to drag along with him. Today was definitely a worko
