They hadn’t yet fallen out with Michael, hoping he would see the other members of the Hall family as his biggest enemies, not Jessica.

Shannon nodded and ticked an option on the plan sheet.

“Since that’s the case, I will send someone to keep an eye on Luke, but we won’t make a move now. There’s still Helen left. No matter what we say, she refuses to speak and won’t reveal the secret she holds.”

Jessica was not surprised.

That was normal.

Helen’s entire family had gone bankrupt, and she was the only one who escaped back to the country.

If she didn’t have this secret, Michael would have killed her long ago.

As Jordan’s biological mother, Jordan didn’t like Helen much either, and was even quite repulsed whenever she saw her.

This was the information Jennifer had given her.

Speaking of Jennifer, a top hacker who had been a nanny for so long had long since lost patience.

And now that many things required Jennifer’s help, Shannon had already helped Jennifer resign and was selecting a new nanny for Michael.

“Michael’s house is fully under surveillance, but he definitely won’t spot the new equipment Jennifer developed with the tech department that can’t be detected even by infrared scanning. It was supposed to be released next year, but now to avoid arousing Michael’s suspicion, the launch will have to be postponed.”

The Wilder Group had sacrificed a lot for Michael – manpower, money, even power.

But it didn’t matter.

Jessica thought it was worth it.

“Your sleep seems to have improved ever since Ms. Wilder returned from her business trip,” said Ashley as he came in from outside the office.

Seeing Chris looking spirited, no longer tired like a few days ago, Ashley put the personnel files on the desk.

“Your condition a few days ago scared me—I thought I might have to send you to surgery.”

Chris smiled; it wasn’t that bad.

But he really hadn’t slept well.

“Captain Felton checked the personnel files and confirmed the person I mentioned does have the surname Johnson. He was the former CFO of the Hall Group. He was already at retirement age but was rehired for one year. Then he died. They said the Hall Group lost a lot of money over it.”

The Hall Group wouldn’t make such a money-losing deal.

It seemed that the funeral expenses were much smaller than the cost they would have suffered if the matter was investigated.

“That means there must be something wrong with Megan. Tell Jake to keep a closer watch. I’ll arrange more night shifts for Jake. He’s still young and can handle it. I can’t,” said Chris.

Ashley raised his hand in surrender.

“I can’t either. My boyfriend and I have planned a trip since it’s almost the annual holiday. But if this matter isn’t settled before the New Year, I probably can’t leave.”

Ashley seemed to have a very good relationship with his boyfriend.

“Wanting to take a vacation is fine. I can manage things here at the hospital. You just handle things as you see fit.”

“We’ll see how things go.”

Megan often met Jake during night shifts recently.

She felt that the young man was quite adorable. He often helped her out, frequently pulling small snacks from his pocket to hand to others.

A helpful and considerate young man like him was welcome everywhere.

Jake had been getting close to Megan lately, mainly because they both worked night shifts.
