CHAPTER 380: A MEETING
Kiara stared at the file on her desk, then looked up at Miss Hutton. The more she looked at the documents, the darker her expression became."You're joking, right?""You want me to handle this case?"Miss Hutton didn't even look up. She calmly flipped through another file."Do I look like I'm joking?""This came directly from the boss." Kiara almost laughed."So now I'm being used for family matters too?""I'm the deputy head of the legal department, not a babysitter." Miss Hutton finally raised her head. "The shareholders' meeting is coming soon." "The boss wants you occupied for now.""You won't need to appear in court.""And you don't even have to win."That somehow made Kiara feel even worse.She leaned back in her chair."Can you tell the boss something for me?""Our department actually has real work to do." "We can't spend every day dealing with his relatives." Miss Hutton simply slid a business card across the table."They've already started making contact.""You'll probably ge
CHAPTER 379: TAX OFFICIALS
The day before the storm arrived, the Robison family's home was already in chaos. Early that morning, the doorbell rang nonstop.Ding. Ding. Ding.Nancy stormed toward the door with an ugly expression."Who is it this early in the morning?"She yanked the door open, ready to curse at whoever was outside. But the moment she saw two people in official uniforms, the words got stuck in her throat."Hello."One of them showed his identification."We're from the tax office.""We need to conduct an investigation regarding your company."The color drained from her face."Tax... tax office?" "Yes."Her legs almost gave out. She quickly forced a smile and stepped aside."Please come in."As the two officials entered, she secretly glanced at the maid nearby and signaled upstairs. The aunt immediately understood.Robison needed to come down.Upstairs, Robison had already heard the commotion. The moment he spotted the uniforms through the railing, his heart sank.The aunt hurried over."Young Mas
CHAPTER 378
As Solara stepped into the house, she froze.Jack was sitting on a chair right by the door, his arms folded across his chest as if he'd been waiting there for hours. The sight startled her."What's wrong with you? Why are you sitting here like some kind of ghost trying to scare me?" she said, pressing a hand against her chest.Jack let out a short laugh."Oh, so you finally remembered this house exists. Why not stay out there a little longer and collect more gossip before coming back?"It was obvious he didn't believe her story about going out for a simple walk.Solara rolled her eyes and walked past him with her bag."I'm about to make breakfast, so spare me the drama."Jack laughed coldly."Breakfast? Solara, look at the time. If you're cooking now, that's lunch."The comment immediately got under her skin.She had spent the whole morning trying to figure out a better future for their family, yet Jack made it sound like she'd been roaming around causing trouble."What's your problem
CHAPTER 377
Solara couldn't shake the feeling that the woman in front of her was being a bit too cryptic. It was as if she knew her on a levelthat went beyond the usual employee-boss relationship."Excuse me, miss, how should I address you?" Solara asked, trying to keep her tone casual."Auntie, I'm with the Hutton Family. You can just call me Miss Hutton," the woman replied with a smile that seemed friendly enough, but Solara sensed something beneath the surface.In their line of work, it was all about knowing how to talk to people- saying the right thing to the right person, whether they were a friend or a foe. Just yesterday, her secretary had pulled a fast one on her, and now Solara felt it was her turn to play a little game. After all, how would this woman know her last name?Besides, Solara was acting a bit sneaky herself, which only added to her unease. Even if she said something out of line, she doubted Miss Hutton would dare to run straight to Thomas with it. It gave her a sense of fals
CHAPTER 376
Thomas glanced at Solara’s face, hoping to catch a hint of what she was thinking."I'll take my parents home. You go ahead," he said. Ava stepped in to divert the attention, knowing that this awkward situation couldn't go on any longer. Solara looked at her daughter with genuine admiration.Even after learning about his identity, Ava still maintained her usual demeanor."Do you want me to give you a ride?" Solara offered."No!"The three of them replied in unison. After that, a heavy silence fell over them, as if they were all trying to hide something."I understand. Just be careful on the way," Thomas said, breaking the silence as he headed upstairs.As she watched his figure disappear, Solara finally found the courage to speak."If he's driving, who would dare to get in the car with him?"Ava shot her a glance but didn't respond.Once they were all in the car, Solara kept quiet during the ride, her eyes wandering around the interior. It was a really nice car. They had never owned on
CHAPTER 375
She decided to follow through with the sob story she had just discussed with her dad. She was sure her daughter would be convinced. Jack nodded, fully aware of how serious the situation was. Only Ava could help them out."So your dad came over for this reason too?""Of course! We can't waste any time. Let's pack our things and go find her today."Once Solara learned about Thomas's identity, she couldn't sit still for a moment. It felt like a knife was hanging over her neck, and if they didn't act quickly, it would be too late.Surprisingly, Jack agreed with her."Why don't you start gathering your things? I'll go register with the nurse, and we'll leave right away."As they packed up, they soon grabbed a taxi to head over. On the way, Jack called Ava."Hey, sweetheart, are you home right now?"Ava glanced at the clock, wondering how they knew she had taken the day off."Yeah, Dad. What's going on?"When her dad reached her, she could only think that something must be wrong. Hearing t
