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
CHAPTER 274
Drake returned home with his head hanging low, feeling defeated. He didn't even dare to go to the office. His assistant had the chance to report to Justice, but if Drake showed up, he would definitely face a harsh scolding. Seeing her son's gloomy expression, his mother immediately sensed that things hadn't gone well. She wanted to offer some words of comfort, but with time running out and no progress in days, she couldn't help but worry about what Thomas was planning."Why don't you go over there and try your luck? I heard there have been a lot of people coming and going at the group lately," she suggested suddenly.Drake felt a wave of despair wash over him. It seemed his mother had already checked things out. The thought of her running around because of his troubles made him feel a bit guilty."I even tried asking people around him today, but it was completely useless. At this rate, I think he'll just keep dragging this out," he replied, not daring to mention the worst-case scenari
CHAPTER 273
Drake wasn't sure how to continue the conversation, so he decided to speak directly with Lawrence. Lawrence watched as Kiara left in a huff, glancing at Drake with a hint of confusion. He didn't recall ever meeting Drake before, but given Kiara's reaction, it seemed they must know each other. He studied Drake curiously from head to toe."Do you know her?" Lawrence asked.Drake felt a bit out of place, especially since he had thought he was alone until this unexpected encounter. Lawrence continued, "Mr. Lawrence, right?I came to talk to you because I need a favor."Lawrence was still a bit annoyed by Kiara's earlier conversation. Now, here was Drake, coming to him with what felt like a half-Baked request. It seemed both useful and pointless at the same time, like a dish that didn't quite satisfy.He couldn't help but think how clever Kiara was. Just a moment ago, she was putting on a show for him, and now she had sent a friend to ask for help. Did she really think he would feel obli
