Seraphina clenched her lips, concealing the tumultuous emotions within her.

She could never have imagined that Andrew Jenkins would die so suddenly, leaving behind so many troubles.

If she hadn’t been so greedy and had listened to Henry Charles earlier and moved abroad with her kids, she wouldn’t be cornered like she was now, stuck between a rock and a hard place.

A glint flashed in her eyes, but Seraphina continued to cajole softly, “Hannah, even though I’ve known your Uncle Charles for many years, I know very little about his affairs. Your father trusted him completely, so he couldn’t have done something like that, could he? Olivia Jenkins is in charge of the audit. Whatever the outcome may be, it’s her call. It’s also possible that Olivia fabricated it all.”

Hannah chose to believe her mother and didn’t argue further, ‘Every department within the company has signed a confidentiality agreement. A lot of people suspect that a major purge is about to happen.”

Seraphina’s eyes darkened, finding it hard to control the resentment seething within her.

It seemed Olivia was serious about taking control, planning to uproot the power structure she and Henry Charles had.

Claiming she wasn’t scared would be a lie. In truth, Seraphina was terrified, afraid that the investigations would lead back to her.

And she feared that Henry Charles might betray her.

After speaking with Lawyer Hall, she tried contacting several people, but their phones were all switched off. Likely because they were being interrogated by the corporation.

How come she never realized before how cunning and ruthless Olivia could be!

If she knew then what a hard nut Olivia was, she certainly would have kicked her out of the Jenkins family earlier, cutting off all ties. She wouldn’t have let Olivia live to become the obstacle she is now.

“Hannah, let’s not worry about the rest for now. Try not to get involved in the shareholders’ meeting and just focus on your work. Olivia is very vicious. There’s no telling what she is capable of, so don’t provoke her.”

“Mom, I know, I won’t stir up any trouble.”

When Olivia finished her meeting and came out, her secretary reported, “Chief Jenkins, there’s a man named Mr. Daniel Marshall who wants to see you. He didn’t make an appointment, but he said that when you hear what he has to report, you will definitely see him.”

Daniel Marshall?

Olivia thought of Daniel’s handsome face, his expressions ever changing like the weather.

“Send him to my office.”

Under the secretary’s guidance, Matthew Marshall entered the CEO’s office.

Seeing that it was Matthew, Olivia was slightly surprised!

Matthew sat down in front of Olivia, smiled, and looking at her, he said,

“Disappointed to see it isn’t my brother?”

Olivia raised her eyebrows slightly and spread her hands nonchalantly, “Honestly, I am not disappointed, just surprised. What specifically made you decide to target me?”

Matthew’s smile deepened, a glimmer of inscrutability in his eyes, “You do have a way with words, sister-in-law.”

“I am not joking with you. Truth be told, I never thought you would seek me out voluntarily. I am vilified in the Marshall family, as you know. I’ve had arguments with your mother, the tension between us palpable. She certainly wouldn’t know about you coming to see me, would she?”

“No matter what I do, I don’t owe an explanation to my mother. I am my own person! I heard about what’s happening with the Jenkins family, and I also heard the latest news. No bank is willing to loan to the Jenkins Group. I genuinely think it must be tough for you to be fighting this alone. Therefore, I

came here to discuss a potential collaboration.”

Olivia laughed and a hint of mockery arose on her face.

“Speaking of collaboration, wouldn’t it be more appropriate for me to find your brother.”

“Sister-in-law, you wouldn’t pursue my brother’s help. If you wanted his assistance, you would’ve asked already. You wouldn’t wait till now. You are well aware of the dire situation the Jenkins Group is facing. You won’t have much time for hesitation.”

After musing for a moment, Olivia asked, “What kind of aid are you intending to provide? Let’s hear it.”

Matthew’s gaze remained inscrutable, his face expressionless, “Sister-in-law, I can help the Jenkins Group go public..”
