CHAPTER 391
Miss Hutton arrived at the office early in the morning. She noticed that the number of people clocking in was less than ten, and thought to herself that maybe it was time to give those early risers a raise. As she stepped into the office, she was slightly surprised to see someone already sitting in a chair.Her boss had been working harder lately; it seemed David was really stepping up."Good morning, boss," she greeted."Morning! Thanks for your hard work yesterday," he replied. His words reminded Miss Hutton that with her boss here so early, he probably had something to discuss with her. She quickly dismissed the thought, telling herself that whatever it was, it would come up sooner or later. She recalled their meetingYesterday, feeling a bit at a loss for words."So, how did it go? Was it smoother than you expected?" he asked. Miss Hutton understood exactly what he was referring to."Not really. Clinton and his father don't see eye to eye; it seems he wants to break away from his
CHAPTER 390
Robison and Jason were feeling quite bored that day. It turned out that they were the uncle and aunt of Ava. "I'll notify the front desk right away, " Robison said. After confirming with Harry, he added, "No problem. Please ask them to come up.""Okay."The front desk hung up the phone."Both of you, the vice president is available now. Please head to the left elevator and go directly to the fifth floor.""Alright, thank you!"Hearing that Ava was willing to see them, both of them felt a wave of relief wash over them. As they walked toward the elevator, Nancy still felt a bit anxious."How do you think we should start the conversation? What if he doesn't agree? Am I really going to have to kneel and beg for mercy like a child?"Bruce, hearing this, felt a headache coming on. Why did every solution seem to involve begging?"Let's just see how it goes. Rachel is a kind girl; she shouldn't be as difficult as Thomas."Just as they exchanged a few more words, the elevator doors opened. Sta

"Some things are hard for me to say, and you're part of it, so just see for yourself, Lawrence." Lawrence noticed that his friendseemed a bit upset, and he wasn't sure which of his words had triggered that reaction. So, he decided to change the subject."Have your family sorted things out for you? They really need to learn to behave, or else the boss will make sure they end up with nothing.""Don't worry, the toughest troublemaker has already been thrown into detention. Soon enough, he'll probably be transferred to prison." Lawrence nodded at this. The boss had a way of dealing with people by putting them in a place where escape was impossible, and it would definitely leave a mark on their life stories. It was quite impactful."Let's just play it safe for now." At the police station.Robison had been stuck there for dozens of hours, but it wasn't as bad as he had imagined. In fact, because one of his legs was injured, the police had given him a bit of special treatment. However, by
CHAPTER 388
Such a remarkable figure, known by everyone- Miss Hutton knew him, and so did Lawrence. The moment Miss Hutton learned that Lucas was back, she felt compelled to completely overturn everything Clinton had said before."I need to do something right now, but I'm still unsure about it." Lawrence looked at her, wondering when their relationship had returned to the point where they could openly share secrets like this again. Miss Hutton's tone indicated that she was facing a dilemma, and it was no small matter."Go ahead and tell me, if you still choose to trust me," Ethan said, his voice carrying an unusual weight. Miss Hutton glanced at him, sensing the tension. She was aware that there had been many misunderstandings between them recently, and they had both expressed their grievances.At this moment, she truly felt uncertain about discussing this with anyone else. Reporting it directly to their boss didn't seem appropriate either."I came to talk to Clinton today. You should know his na
CHAPTER 387
As soon as Clinton walked away, he turned and headed upstairs into the office building, making his way to a hidden office on the other side. He pushed the door open and saw Lucas sitting inside."As you expected, Thomas is indeed most concerned about our side. He's already sent someone to hand over the details to me. So, how am I doing? Are you satisfied with my performance?"Lucas looked up at him, a hint of amusement in his eyes. This kid really knew how to flatter."Don't get too cocky. Your dad will never forgive you for this, so right now, you're just a grasshopper on the same string as me.""Auntie Emily, I truly believe you can help me gain real power. Compared to that inexperienced kid, you're definitely the one with the real skills." Lucas only smiled slightly at the flattery. His relationship with this kid was purely transactional; it was all about business. For now, the kid was simply in a position to enjoy the benefits."Don't worry, I'll keep my promises, but you can't pu
CHAPTER 386
"I've been thinking about how troublesome this shareholders' meeting must be. After all, it's my first time attending this year, and it certainly seems that way, especially since Miss Hutton is here in person." The way he spoke was rather grating, and Miss Hutton could keenly sense his hostility towards the headquarters. Under such circumstances, his words became even more irritating."Of course, we always look to the headquarters for guidance and will fully cooperate to support the shareholders' meeting.""There's no need for cooperation. The shareholders' meeting is meant to summarize the company's performance and consider the interests of all shareholders. It's not just for the headquarters; everyone stands to gain something," Miss Hutton replied, noticing that the person next to her had momentarily paused."That building over there looks somewhat familiar." Hearing this, Clinton squinted and replied, "Ah, that's our old office building. The headquarters probably still has it regis
