Chapter 371

Fortunately, as the first batch of deceived customers received their compensation from Celestia Jewels, public interest surged, and the company's credibility slowly began to recover.For the past two days, Angela and Maverick had been working in perfect coordination—Maverick focused on handling the crisis, while Angela worked tirelessly to recruit new talent.The company lacked professionals in many areas, especially management. Although the two of them were doing their best to keep everything afloat, there was simply no way they could handle every little thing on their own.Angela decided to bring Clara over, hoping she could temporarily transfer some staff from the headquarters to Celestia Jewels until new employees were hired.Although Clara agreed, most employees were reluctant to go when they heard that the assignment required a long-term stay in Yedren. Even the promise of double the pay and better benefits couldn't tempt them away from home.When Angela didn't get a reply f

"What the…" Zack was stunned for a moment. "Dexter, can you teleport? This morning, you said you were still in a meeting."Dexter raised an arrogant eyebrow. "What's so difficult about teleporting?" He walked straight to the couch Angela was on and waved a hand in front of her. "Are you alright? You look pale."Angela still looked weak and lifeless as she sat there. Suddenly, something crossed her mind, and she got up abruptly, only to nearly collapse due to weakness in her legs.Luckily, she managed to grab the couch's backrest just in time."What's wrong? Why are you so worked up?" Dexter frowned."This flu is spreading fast. There's a high chance people in our company are already infected, but we desperately need manpower right now. I need to find a solution…""Just sit for now." Exasperated, Dexter pushed her back onto the couch. "I'll have someone find out."He sounded completely natural, as if there was no distance between them.Angela, however, felt uneasy about this. "N

Angela gave a nod. "Grandpa, I won't meddle unnecessarily."She had no habit of meddling in matters that didn't concern her, but she would step in when it came to the people she cared about.She stayed at Bamford Manor for two days, taking turns with Dexter to look after Joseph. On the third day, she finally got in touch with Mia.Mia sounded weak over the phone, as if she had also caught the flu. Her frail voice made Angela's heart ache.After discussing it with Dexter, Angela made up her mind to visit Mia in person.It had only been a short while since they had last met, but Mia's belly had grown considerably. Moving around had become a challenge for her."What happened to you? How did you end up like this?" Angela was startled the moment she walked in and saw Mia curled up on the couch, looking pale.As far as Angela could remember, Mia had always been a fashionable and strikingly beautiful woman. It was clear how gorgeous she was just from how obsessed Zayn had always been w

But gradually, Mia started noticing something was off.Susan always seemed to be around, whether intentionally or not. On top of that, she paid special attention to who Mia was in contact with. Every time Mia made a call, Susan would position herself no more than ten feet away.As a pregnant woman, Mia was naturally more sensitive than usual. After testing things a few times, she became—Susan was monitoring her.What was even more infuriating was that Susan blatantly started interfering in her daily life. From what she ate and wore to whether she could leave the house, Susan even outright told her that she should minimize going out and let others handle company affairs.It was absurd.Mia wasn't someone who could be easily controlled, but in the past few days, she had caught the flu. Because she was pregnant and couldn't take any medication, she had no choice but to endure it. This gave Susan complete leverage over her.If Mia hadn't secretly called Angela while in the bathroom t

"Angela, how could this happen? This is impossible… Zayn promised me that once our child is born, he will take us abroad to settle down and never return. How did things turn out like this?"Tears of despair welled up in Mia's eyes, and her whole body trembled.Angela gripped the steering wheel tightly, remaining silent. She didn't want to speak because the moment she did, she knew she'd start cursing.Mia wept in soft, scattered sobs, but they lasted only a short while before she wiped away her tears."Angela, thank you. Thank you for getting me out of there. Otherwise, I would still be an ignorant fool!"Gritting her teeth, Mia scoffed. "Since Zayn has chosen to betray me, he can't blame me for what happens next!"Angela turned to look at her in surprise, almost in disbelief. Hadn't Mia been crying and heartbroken just 20 minutes ago? Was she fine now?Mia had already dried her tears at that point. She even smiled at herself in the mirror.Noticing Angela's gaze, she turned an

Dexter wasn't defending Zayn; he was merely stating the facts calmly."But that doesn't make it okay. He might be fine with it, and sure, Mrs. Jewell would never harm her own son, but for them to team up and deceive Mia, who's an outsider, is utterly despicable!" Angela fumed, her hands on her hips.She was so fired up that she might as well start a revolution.Dexter remained silent, his shadow stretching long beside her under the setting sun, exuding an inexplicable sense of loneliness.Noticing the odd atmosphere, Angela turned to ask, "Is there something you want to say?" Dexter scratched his nose. "Uh… I just wanted to give you a heads-up. Mia might want to check her assets to ensure everything is in order."Angela's eyes widened instantly, staring at him in disbelief. She had a bad feeling about this."You… Do you mean…""Yes." Dexter nodded. "Mrs. Jewell might not come from a prestigious background herself, but she managed to marry into the Jewell family with her intell

"Mia! Mia, you have to pull yourself together." After a brief moment, Angela helped her up and sighed. "Think carefully—did you sign anything you shouldn't have? Did Leroy deceive you? That's your company, your livelihood. We can't just sit here and do nothing!"Mia looked pale. She took a deep breath, forcing herself to sit upright and think.A few days ago, Leroy had indeed come to see her. At that time, she hadn't seen anyone besides Susan for days, so she had been overjoyed to see him.Then, Leroy had handed her a pile of documents to review, with a few requiring her signature.As they had chatted, Leroy had mentioned he had his eye on several small clubs and planned to acquire them to expand their business.Mia had already handed over most of the company's operations to him by then. Before doing so, she had also been involved in discussions about acquisitions, so she trusted Leroy deeply.At first, she had carefully reviewed every document. However, Leroy had kept glancing a

Angela exchanged a glance with Lynn, who stepped forward respectfully to accept the invitation.Riley's expression darkened—she clearly hadn't expected Mia to be so composed and effortlessly deflect her provocation."This invitation is for you," Riley said, her tone sharpening as she clenched her teeth. "It's inappropriate for someone else to accept it on your behalf.""Angie, who's here?" Just then, Zack stumbled out of the guest room groggily, rubbing his eyes. But the moment he spotted Riley, his brows furrowed."It's you again, you wicked woman! What the hell are you doing in our house? You're not welcome here. Get lost!" Looking utterly disgusted, Zack launched straight into a full-on verbal attack.Riley paled and instinctively stepped back, recalling the last time Zack had humiliated her in public."Angela, control your brother!" she snapped coldly."Shut your mouth!" Zack sneered, snatching the invitation from Riley's hands. "What the hell is this? Ha! An invitation? Are

Riley's face went rigid, her eyes locking onto Angela as they slowly reddened.How could Zayn possibly love her? And how could he ever be willing to marry her?His heart had long been stolen by Mia, and he only had eyes for her. No matter what Riley did, she couldn't force herself into his heart. Yet, she refused to accept that.She and Zayn had grown up together. She had loved him so deeply, so desperately, for so long—there was no way she could just stand by and watch another woman take him away.As such, she had turned to Florence, offering her a deal. If Florence could make Zayn be with her, she was willing to give away at least half of the Zamora family's fortune to him.And Florence, greedy as she was, was instantly swayed by the offer."That is between me and him," Riley spat, unwilling to admit defeat. "Once we're married, we'll be bound to each other as husband and wife. No one will be able to take him from me ever again.""How foolish can you be? You're really willing

It was truly incomprehensible. "I know." Mia was also in tears as she gently helped Zayn up. "I know you're doing this for me. I understand."Angela was baffled. Was Mia even hearing herself? Had she gone mad?Angela was on the verge of losing it. If Mia let herself be trampled on again this time, Angela might just have to cut ties with her."Really?" Zayn's face lit up with joy, his eyes brimming with excitement. "That's great! I knew you'd—"Mia suddenly interrupted him, her tone shifting, "But… you need to explain to me why my assets are now under your mother's name."The smile on Zayn's face froze instantly. He stared at her in disbelief, speechless for a long moment. "What? How is that possible?""You can check for yourself." Mia sighed softly. "Zayn, you're the one I trust, not your mother. You have three days. I need my assets back in my name. Otherwise, I will take legal action."Zayn's expression turned grim. He had clearly never expected Florence to do something like
