CHAPTER 280
Thomas drove steadily, but the people in the back felt a wave of anxiety. Ava glanced at her mother, Solara, unsure of how to start. Her mom had been in a bad mood lately because of some property issues, and bringing up this topic would only make things worse. Still, she had to say something."Mom, there's something I need to talk to you about. Do you remember your last check-up? Well, there were some... issues with the results."As soon as she said it, she looked at the two people in front of her. Their eyes met, and the atmosphere turned serious at once."Wasn't Dad the one who got the results?How do you know there's a problem?"Solara felt a chill run down her spine at her daughter's grave tone. Could something really be wrong?Jack had received the results without any mention of issues, but before knowing the outcome, she had felt a twinge of worry. After all, with age comes health concerns."The doctor told Dad about the results, and he was worried, so he didn't tell you the who
CHAPTER 279
Solara watched as the flames of conflict spread to others, feeling quite pleased as long as she wasn't the target. It was the perfect opportunity to deal with Iris. She hadn't forgotten how, during that time, he had been jumping around, badmouthing her family, and causing himself a lot of unnecessary worry."Bring me the contract back. I don't see any problem with it. If it's for my grandfather, I can sign it," she said confidently.Robison shot her a disdainful glance. Did this woman really think she was something special? She should consider her husband's mess; it was a disaster that couldn't be hidden anymore.Just because she thought others were easy to manipulate didn't mean they were."You don't deserve to sit here and takeanything. If you're so capable, why don't you go fetch the inheritance yourself while Grandpa is still sick? Aren't you ashamed?"With such a public confrontation, Iris' face turned bright red. She stole a few glances at the old man, only to find him calmly
CHAPTER 278
Thomas turned around and looked at him, a hint of amusement in his expression. Usually, this guy was pretty clueless, but today he seemed to have a spark of cleverness."Do you know the saying, 'If you want to keep something a secret, don't do it'? Your little issues are already being whispered about at home. Don't think everyone is fooled by your lies."As long as Thomas didn't reveal that he had sent someone to beat him up, what could Robison do? All he could do was harbor a little suspicion, and that wouldn't cost him anything. He might as well let it go.Robison's face darkened at those words. Could it be that his business really had leaked out? He felt uneasy, realizing that his own words could easily be turned against him.He glanced at Thomas, realizing it wasn't that this kid knew something; rather, someone else must have told him. That made a lot more sense."Listen, don't go spreading rumors about me behind my back. If I want to deal with you, I have plenty of ways to do it.
CHAPTER 277
Uriel glanced at Ava's expression and felt a slight sense of relief. After all, it was someone else's suggestion that had brought this matter to her attention. Solara, however, couldn't understand her daughter's happiness. When Wendy heard that they were discussing a collaboration, he decided to hold back his thoughts. He knew that Uriel was currently focused on having a son, and that this was something she cared deeply about."Is that the old man?" Jack suddenly chimed in, drawing everyone's attention. When they looked toward the entrance, there was Stephen, pushing a wheelchair with the familiar figure of the old man seated in it.Checking the time, Solara realized it was still early.As she watched the dishes being served, she felt a sinking feeling; it seemed like they wouldn't enjoy their meal after all. The others had already gathered around the old man.Not wanting to be left out, Solara quickly set down her chopsticks and grabbed Ava's hand."Stop talking nonsense and let's go
CHAPTER 276
Thomas watched Ava bustling around all morning, feeling both amused and exasperated. Neither of them had high hopes for this family gathering, but Solara was in a frenzy. She had called several times early in the morning, insisting that Ava hurry up and pick her up."Is Mom really that anxious? I see you sweating over there. We have plenty of time to get there by noon as planned," Thomas said, trying to lighten the mood. Ava, however, was too busy to respond, her face showing her frustration.Ava didn't want to be in this position, but her mom had been giving orders since dawn, especially considering that she was currently unwell. They had to handle all of this today because later that evening, Ava would need to take her to the hospital for a check-up. It was all about calming Solara's nerves first."My mom is about to get her results, and we need to keep her calm today. I just hope she doesn't fall apart when she hears them tonight," Ava sighed. It wasn't easy for her, but what could
CHAPTER 275
He carefully considered his company, realizing that many of their dealings relied on guessing others' intentions. In the past, he could easily drag someone in, tie them up, and force them to give results through harsh methods. But now, doing business couldn't be approached that way. There were many areas where caution was necessary."Lawrence, just think it over. As long as we don't cross the boss or Miss Hutton, I'll do whatever I can," he said. This guy was clear-headed, not just making empty promises. He laid out the boundaries and rules that needed to be established. Lawrence glanced at him with curiosity. To him, the boss was number one, and Miss Hutton was number two. He wondered if he ranked anywhere nearthird."If I take your words to heart, the boss and Miss Hutton would be thrilled. But I didn'texpect you to be such a loyal person. Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you." Lawrence operated on the principle of street smarts, valuing each person's character and i
