Chapter 396 Her Spy in Ardora Construction

Soon after, Johnson arrived and saw his wife and son with me. His little one's laughter made him smile as he politely greeted, "Chloe, sorry to impose on you."

He then exchanged pleasantries with my parents and even told us he bought snacks for Ava.

The dinner was joyous and harmonious. I knew it had lifted a weight from Myra's shoulders. She played with the children after dinner. My parents realized Johnson and I needed to talk, so they went for a walk.

together.

I-discussed Ardora Construction's current situation with Johnson and understood that the Thompsons

had been active lately. They had snatched several projects from others and pulled in a few significant

shareholders.

It seemed they played a big game and were unafraid to take risks. The mastermind behind everything was Liora. Even without Johnson's explanation, I knew Keegan was not the one making things happen.

It had always been Liora. She didn't want to lack money because she was married to Atticus. I wondered

why she couldn't stay content.

Another thing puzzled me. Was Liora not afraid of Atticus's retaliation for seizing his resources and connections? From my understanding, Atticus would never tolerate a woman taking advantage of him, even if she was his wife.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have hesitated to remove the Thompsons' influence from his company. I figured Liora's schemes would return to bite her one day.

It seemed I needed to have a word with Atticus beforehand, even though he had hinted that I didn't need to spare Liora any mercy. It indicated plenty of hidden information in this situation, which warranted some thorough investigation on my part.

That was how the upper class functioned. Many things remained unspoken yet understood by everyone. However, that only occurred when one had the power to speak.

Before parting ways, I had to tell Johnson and Myra. "You can't leave Ardora Construction yet. You can rest assured I will always welcome you at my company if you're willing to return. But for now, you must stay at Ardora Construction. Of course, the decision depends on you."

Although I didn't state my intentions, Johnson declared, "Chloe, I'd brave any storm for you If you're willing to accept me later,

Thank you for saying that, Johnson, I know it puts you in a difficult position, but I need this I need you

salary.

"You can't do that, Chloe. You've already been too kind to me. I can't take your money," Johnson

protested, shaking his head.

Myra agreed, "Absolutely not, Chloe!"

"Don't refuse so quickly. I understand how tough it is for you two. You can easily move to work at a better place, but since you're working for me, I can't let my employees suffer," I assured them.

"Plus, your kid is still too young for kindergarten, and Myra won't be able to work for a while. I know your pressure is immense, Johnson. So don't refuse because it's only fair for me to offer you that. On the contrary, it'll put my mind at ease."

I appealed to him with reason and emotion-it wasn't an empty statement. After some thought, Johnson

responded, "Okay. Thank you, Chloe. I will do my best for this."

I knew he was knowledgeable. His ready acceptance also reassured me. The trio stayed at my place until late before leaving. It seemed my plan had a more definite direction. However, I knew this approach would also pose significant risks. I had to be cautious and not act hastily.

On Friday, I went to the hospital to remove my cast. I felt much lighter afterward. While heading downstairs, I picked up som

medication for my dad. I saw a burly man ahead of me when I reached the Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Finally, when the man bent to hand over his prescription, I saw a snake tattoo on his wrist. I instantly recognized this tattoo. I had seen the same tattoo during my kidnapping. It was the burly man who had carried me through the tall grass

Though I hadn't seen the man's face that night, I remembered this tattoo vividly. My heart raced as stepped aside to get a better look at him.
