Chapter 651

Seeing Hugh like this, Chelsea felt sorry for him, but she thought that it was too early for her to have a child. Besides, she had not had enough fun yet. Well, it was not just about having fun. She could barely manage her own time! If a child came into the picture all of a sudden, what was she going to do?If Hugh really wanted a child, she would still be willing to have one because a good man like him was hard to find these days.…When Lucy and Matthew got to the office, they saw Koven and Hudson running toward Lucy with big smiles while ignoring Matthew.Seeing the two of them standing on either side of Lucy made Matthew uncomfortable. Any man would feel the same in this situation.“Wow, twins! How far along are you? How much longer until I can meet my godchildren?” Koven asked, grinning from ear to ear.Hudson stood there, looking just as happy. He would glance at Lucy and then at Matthew every now and then. His eyes were full of blessings for the couple, but more than any

"Sunrise Group is facing bankruptcy,” Matthew said as he lit a cigarette and looked out the window.Hudson and Koven exchanged puzzled glances before quickly sitting down on either side of him and asking what was going on.“After Sunrise Group started having problems, I had Kent buy out all the shares from their shareholders at a high price, including their ongoing projects. Many shareholders have already withdrawn their investments from Sunrise Group.“Now, the company is facing significant risks, and the police are investigating their financial records. From what I know, it’s likely that they’ll find accounting issues with the project we collaborated on, but the crisis has been averted for us since we suspended the project with Sunrise Group. We won't proceed with it any further,” Matthew explained to the both of them.Although Koven could not fully grasp what he meant, he understood that Matthew's side had not suffered any losses and that Sunrise Group was on the verge of bankru

Feeling relieved, Hudson and Matthew agreed with Koven’s suggestion.“By the way, has there been any news on Linus lately? He hasn’t shown up around Lucy, has he?” Koven asked, suddenly remembering Linus.Matthew shook his head.“Linus is quite mysterious. Although he lives near our house, we never run into him. Thinking back, all our encounters with him happened when I wasn’t around. Whenever he appears, Lucy always tells me that they ran into each other by chance, which makes him even more suspicious.”Matthew was still wary of Linus. Despite claims of him turning over a new leaf, Linus’ history with Spades could not be ignored.“I think we should tell Lucy about this, at least to give her some precaution. The main issue is that we can’t predict Linus’ intentions. He has approached Lucy several times already, yet each time, he hasn’t shown any clear motives. That only makes him more suspicious, don’t you think?” Koven suggested.Lucy was his apprentice, after all, so he could n

”In that case, why do they need a lawyer? It’s impossible that there isn’t anything wrong with their accounts. Ted accepted a bribe from Spades. How could that go unnoticed? I found evidence of that myself,” said Matthew, unable to believe that Sunrise Group's accounts were spotless. At that time, he distinctly remembered uncovering two separate illicit payments.“That’s the problem. Logically speaking, with such large transactions, it’s impossible not to find any discrepancies. But I reviewed the accounts, and there were no issues at all, including Ted’s bank statements and elsewhere.“Not to mention, the internal operations of Sunrise Group have been chaotic for the past few years, so their accounts should have shown errors. It seems like someone tampered with the records, or perhaps Spades helped cover it up. They probably made a deal with Ted to keep him from exposing the truth.”After hearing this, Hudson spoke up, “That does make sense. If Spades orchestrated this, Sunrise Gro

"Don’t worry, I’ve got this. I know all the ins and outs of Mermaid Network. This is a piece of cake,” Koven assured them. He then walked over to the computer, logged into Mermaid Network, and began a comprehensive search.Charlie and Matthew exchanged looks and got up from the couch, moving toward the desk.Within a few minutes, Koven found information on Sunrise Group, and what he saw left him in shock.“Holy shit! Sunrise Group has been embezzling a ton of money. From the time they went public until now, the amount they’ve siphoned off is staggering. It’s enough to last them a lifetime—no, it’s probably enough to last their next 18 generations!" Koven exclaimed, staring at the data on the screen in disbelief.“No need to be so dramatic. You’re always so over the top,” Hudson quickly retorted when he heard Koven’s exaggerated statement.Koven chuckled sheepishly. “It’s just a figure of speech, you know.”“Our priority right now isn’t their past financial records but the curre

In Hudson’s office, Charlie was carefully looking through the documents, hoping to find some clues.“It seems like uncovering the truth behind these documents won’t be easy because Spades has hidden their tracks too well, but I don’t think they know that we know they’re the ones behind this. If they do, it’ll put us in danger, so we can only operate in the shadows,” said Charlie in a serious tone. Although he was now a lawyer for Sunrise Group, he still hoped that Matthew would not encounter any problems.“If we have to operate in the shadows, it could get tricky. The people from Spades are stronger than we thought, judging by the fact that they could erase all of Sunrise Group’s dark history without anyone noticing. "Luckily, we have the evidence from Koven’s Mermaid Network. If not, we would've had no other way…” Matthew said, expressing his gratitude toward Koven.Mermaid Network had helped them a lot in this matter. Without Koven, they would not even know where to start thei

"Lucy, you’re definitely going to win the grand prize with this design. It will be a highlight in the history of the Hype and Elegance Fashion Show. To be honest, seeing your work makes me question my own confidence,” Koven said with a self-deprecating laugh.Lucy was embarrassed to hear this. Koven was her mentor, and for him to say such a thing meant that her design was truly exceptional. However, she still felt she could not reach his level.“You’re too kind, Koven. I’ve always been interested in design and drawing, but I never thought I’d become a fashion designer. I owe it all to you. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t be here today,” Lucy sincerely thanked him from the bottom of her heart.She was lucky she had Koven to guide her onto this path because without him, she might still be at home, drawing and sketching out of boredom. Now, with her newfound passion, she always felt busy and fulfilled.“You’re welcome. If your design is ready, I’ll submit it and find a suitable mode

"It's good that you're aware. I’m going to beat you in the fashion show, and even if you do win, it'll be because of Matthew’s help. If I had a husband like him, I’d just stay home and enjoy a life of luxury. Why bother working and exhausting myself every day? "Wealthy people like you become designers for the experience while people like me do it to earn a living.” After finishing, Lacee shot Lucy a side-eye.Koven’s anger toward Lacee was rising as he listened to their conversation.“Lacee, that’s enough. You shouldn’t talk like that. Both you and Lucy can learn from each other. Lucy earned her achievements through her own hard work too. "If you’re so easily jealous, forget about being a designer. There's always going to be someone better than you out there. What are you going to do then? Kill them to stay at the top?” Koven vented his frustration in a single breath.Lacee swallowed her retort as she could not afford to offend Koven. If she did, she would have no chance in the

"What are you going to have, Lucy?” Koven turned to Lucy beside him.“I’m fine with anything. What about you?” Lucy replied. She was not used to hearing Koven speak like this.“Now that you’re pregnant, you should avoid spicy food and stick to something lighter.”Lucy could not believe how much he knew, so she turned to him with a puzzled look. “How do you, a grown man, know about this stuff? Unless you’re...”Listening to her question, Koven immediately looked at her and said, “It’s not what you’re thinking. I’m as straight as a pole, so don’t overthink it.”Lucy smiled awkwardly and remained quiet.“If you don’t know what to eat, I’ll pick something out for you. Wait here.”Lucy nodded and watched as he walked away. She had not expected Koven, who usually seemed so carefree, to be so attentive.Meanwhile, Lacee had initiated her plan. After seeing Koven and Lucy leave, she quietly sneaked into Lucy’s office and snapped a photo of Lucy’s initial draft and the completed garment

"I don’t have any leads yet, and I don’t know where to begin. Plus, I’m representing them as their lawyer, so your issues and Sunrise Group’s issues are intertwined. It’s giving me a headache trying to sort through everything,” said Charlie as he set aside his work and massaged his temples.“Why don’t I take a look? There might be some loopholes you’re not seeing. Maybe I’ll be able to find them,” Koven suggested as he watched the three of them.They were all busy, and he felt bored just sitting there doing nothing. Since Charlie was having a headache and couldn’t continue the search, he might as well make himself useful.Charlie nodded and gestured for Koven to take his seat while he stood by, observing.As soon as Koven sat down, he began examining every detail. As expected, Spades hid everything well. Suddenly, an idea struck him, and he turned to ask Charlie, “Charlie, do you have Ted’s account? Just the account would be enough. I might be able to hack into it.”Charlie’s mind
