When the time came, Lucas would stand with Aurora against Joseph. With just a little manipulation, there’d be no need for Kenneth to lift a finger. Lucas alone would be more than enough to deal with Joseph. Seeing how confident Kenneth was, Judy couldn’t help but feel a bit more at ease. Maybe he really did know what he was doing. So, what was she so worried about? Might as well go with the flow. After staying a while longer, the two of them returned to their place in Ravenshore.
Once back at the studio, Judy gave Joseph a call. At that moment, Joseph was knee-deep in matters related to Walton Corporation. He’d been working tirelessly lately, cutting back even on rest. When he saw Judy’s name flashing on his screen, his mood instantly lifted. Was she back from her trip? He picked up quickly and heard her gentle voice on the other end. “Joseph, I’m back. Just wanted to let you know so you won’t worry.” Hearing her voice, his joy only deepened. “Alright. When did you get back?” Judy casually made up a time, and Joseph didn’t press further. Asking too much would’ve come off as rude. “Okay, I’ll come see you once I’m done here.” This time, Judy didn’t turn him down. She knew that if she kept refusing, he’d start getting suspicious. And right now, she still needed Joseph’s help, especially to deal with Aurora. So, there was no way Judy would give up this chess piece, not until Aurora completely collapsed could she feel at ease.
That woman used to be so arrogant–if Walton Corporation really went under, how could she possibly stay smug? At this moment, Judy had no idea that Aurora had already regained consciousness. That was why she still believed Joseph could take advantage of this window to take down Walton Corporation. If he did, then even if Aurora woke up later, it would already be too late to change anything. There’d be no turning back. Thinking this, the smile on Judy’s face grew even more apparent. Even her colleagues noticed–today, the boss seemed to be in an exceptionally good mood. Compared to before, it was a big difference.

Everyone worked a little more freely. After all, if the boss was happy, they didn’t have to worry about suffering the fallout. Judy wasn’t aware of any of this. She sat in her office, reviewing the latest project contract. She noticed one of the projects actually required international collaboration. And the country listed just so happened to be where Kenneth was based. With that in mind, she had fewer concerns; there’d be more opportunities to support other designers as well. And with their relationship, she was sure Kenneth would be willing to help. Thinking that, Judy felt even more delighted, which meant she could spare more time to deal with Joseph. When Joseph arrived, he found Judy sitting in her office chair, wearing a camisole dress, going through project files. He stood at the office door without hesitation and knocked on Tessa’s office door. Hearing the sound, Judy looked up and said, “Come in.”
