Ms. Wilder, sorry for losing track of the person last time. It won‘ Calum apologized to Jessica over the mic.
happen again, this time, I will follow Helen the whole way,”
Jessica raised her hand to interrupt, “With Michael’s help, it’s still easy to evade your surveillance. Don’t let your guard down Michael seems to have leveled up these years abroad.”
Indya shouted, “Calum, I told you, just call her Jessica. Ms. Wilder unmediately chills out, she likes that cute vibe you have.” Even in the internal meeting, there weren’t that many rules. Knowing Jessica’s personality, they could still joke around a bit.
Calum remained silent.
Shannon spoke up over the mic, “Helen settled in another hotel. Michael visits every three or four days. Helen is still very cautious–she doesn’t use anything Michael brings and just throw them away.”

The hotel was still under the Hall family’s ownership. Helen didn‘ dare tell the front desk, fearing Michael would get word, so she had to speak everything out to dispose of it.
“Staying alert is a good thing.”
“The name of Aitairy’s headquarters in Cheria hasn’t been found yet. The He parents have been at the headquarters these past two years, there’s no news they visited other companies. What’s noteworthy is Luke–I suspect make a move
ke plans against Michael.”
Right now, Michael had returned to the Hall family, and Luke’s position was precarious. He was eager to kick Michael out. “Then let’s wait and see. Michael won’t just sit back and accept defeat.”
Chris entered carrying soup. The meeting wasn’t over yet. Jennifer, who had been silent the entire time, finally spoke up.
“Jordan has been hospitalized these days. I’ve been going back and forth with meals. Roy even asked me to help. Do I look like someone who can clone myself? Can you guys consider my feelings?” Jennifer opened the mic with a string of complaints.
Chris stood by the door, hesitant to come forward, unsure if he could hear her.
Jessica saw him, smiled, waved, and patted the chair beside her, inviting him to sit down.
The others noticed the man’s coat corner and all called out, “Mr. Green.”
Chris felt a little awkward being treated like that and shyly replied “Hello, everyone.”
Jessica didn’t mind Chris’s presence at all, she ate the soup while praising his cooking skills.
Everyone looked on enviously.
“Ah, having a family makes a difference–working overtime and someone cooks for you. We’d be lucky to get a sandwich,” Indya joked.
Chris rarely saw Indya at the company. Usually, the secretary department handled receptions.
As the director of public relations, Indya mostly handled business outside the company and didn’t need to clock in, he went to the company whenever he felt like it.
He didn’t even know the only boy present.
But Calum immediately recognized him as Ms. Wilder’s ex–husband caught at the airport.
Calum didn’t dare say anything.
“Alright, let’s leave it at that for now. Jennifer, go help Roy first. We can’t let serious matters be delayed. Michael won’t bother you recently. I’ll have the doctor arrange for Jordan to stay in the hospital a few more days to make things easier for you.”
