A young man also got out of the car with the daughter. Hailey’s mother felt a tug at her heart and widened her eyes instantly, "Who is this? Why is he with our Hailey?" Finn Morgan and Hailey Hale walked towards the company lobby, chatting as they went, seemingly quite familiar with each other. "Probably colleagues." The mayor remained calm, his gaze on the man’s back, "I remember now, he’s Justin Kingston’s special assistant, named Finn Morgan. We’ve interacted before." "So what? The point is, where are they going? Hailey is still carrying her bag! This means she didn’t go into the office. Did she come out so early just to go on a date?" The old mother was alarmed and worried. "Just a car ride doesn’t make it a date, does it?" The mayor was much calmer, "We shouldn’t rush to conclusions until things are clear." Hailey’s mom thought for a moment, "No, I must quietly find out what’s going on." "So, are you going up now or not?" "Not going." The woman said, "Let’s go home." The mayor nodded, restarted the car, "I’ll drop you off at home and then head to the office." The woman thought for a moment, picked up her phone, and dialed Hailey’s number, "Baby girl, are you up?" Her voice was filled with maternal warmth. "Mom, I’m at the company now, don’t worry, I’ll definitely stay home tonight." "No, no, no." Hailey’s mother said with a smile, "Don’t come home tonight, your dad and I won’t be there." While driving, the mayor looked at her in surprise, hearing her say with a chuckle, "We’re going to your aunt’s tonight, we won’t be home, you come back tomorrow night." "Okay." The girl replied cheerfully. After a brief chat, Hailey’s mom hung up, using the excuse not to disturb her work. "What are you planning?" The mayor drove, glancing at her, "Care to share your plan?" "Tracking." The woman trusted her intuition, "I need to find out where she’s staying tonight." She had a hunch, her daughter wasn’t staying at Emerald Cove. The mayor shook his head, not stopping her, but not agreeing either, "The child is grown, let her be. Making friends is her freedom." "She’s still young, lacking life experience, she could get hurt in relationships." The woman emphasized, "I must protect my daughter." The car drove away from the Kingston Group... Today, something happened at the R-Alan Group. Monica Usher’s design team returned from Aethel Falls, reportedly without a completed draft, which sparked discussions, were they just fooling around? In the gaudy, ostentatious CEO office. Lydia Ingram looked at Monica Usher with displeasure, "Is everything designed? Why are you back already?" He asked knowingly. Newest update provided by novel~fire~net "Not finished yet." Monica Usher replied flatly. "Then why come back?" The man lit a cigar, leaning back with crossed legs on the chair, "Isn’t Aethel Falls supposed to be more inspiring?" "Depends on the person." Monica Usher met his gaze, responding calmly, "Our company’s designers are used to creating in the office, so they’ll be more efficient here." Lydia Ingram didn’t know what to say to her, "Three days, I’ll give you three more days, you must submit a satisfactory design. The Kingston Group is already celebrating, they might launch soon." Monica Usher knew this too, she was anxious as well, but what to do if the team wasn’t performing? Lydia Ingram took a puff of his cigar, squinting slightly, "We need to hurry." His tone less accusatory. "Yes, President Ingram." Monica Usher’s eyes turned a bit cold as she looked at him, "However, during these critical times, I hope President Ingram stays a bit cautious." "What do you mean?" He was puzzled. Their eyes met, Monica Usher spoke bluntly, "Your ex-wife just died, her body’s barely cold. It’s your freedom to have a new love, but best keep a low profile, being caught by the media could affect our True Love series sales."
