Chapter 142 Unexpected Discovery

I looked at Lauren, trying to gauge her thoughts. She had no doubt about the accuracy of

this information.

“We might not be able to touch Echelon Group, but Matthew is another story.” Lauren

smirked. “Your divorce is driving him crazy. Can he bear to watch you gracefully move on?

If he gains power, the first

person he’ll crush is you!”

“You’re absolutely right. He’s already causing chaos with suppliers, leaving me no peace,”

I sighed.

“So, are you just going to let him get away with it? Is there still hope for Tanum

Corporation?” Lauren looked at me intently. “Whether or not you consider me your friend,

when it comes to Matthew, I’m on

your side.”

I lightly patted her hand. “Thank you!”

However, revealing my background and details of Tanum Corporation wasn’t appropriate,

so I only said, “I

won’t let Tanum Corporation crumble under my watch!”

Then I asked, “What’s going on with the ATL Empire? Why all the upheaval?”

She was as savvy as any businessman and had a keen understanding of corporate politics.

“No one knows the specifics since it’s a multinational conglomerate. But there is talk of a

change in ownership. It’s been in turmoil for a while, but no one knows why. They keep

their information tightly

locked up.

Lauren shook her head, leaving me exasperated. “So, what can we do?”

Just as the waiter arrived with our dishes, I casually scanned the downstairs area.

However, I saw something surprising. Two figures made their way into the restaurant. It

was Melanie and,

to my amazement, a man I had been wondering about for days.

It was Josh.

Lauren noticed my expression change. When she looked downstairs, the two people were

gone.

Then, I heard footsteps on the staircase. I quickly got up, opened the door, and told the

waiter standing

outside, “Don’t disturb us!”

After locking the door, I gestured to Lauren to stay quiet as I listened to their voices.

Melanie and Josh

were instructing the walter to arrange a room for them.

I cautiously told Lauren that it was Melanie. This was a very dramatic tum of events. It

seemed like fate

What were the odds of such a coincidence?

I heard them enter the room next to ours. The partitions in this place were made of

wooden panels, and the soundproofing wasn’t great. I heard Josh placing an order

Lauren motioned for me to listen while we continued to eat I quickly took out my phone,

switched on the recording mode, and placed it on the windowsill facing their side.

Sure enough Josh was reporting the company’s current state to Melanie. His tone sounded

somewhat

triumphant

“You can rest assured! Everything has turned into a mess. The new recruits are acting

erratically, and the old ones are all on edge! Chloe hasnt been around much these past

few days. She’s just wandering

aimlessly

“How are the new suppliers? Melanie asked.

Josh told Melanie everything I had worked out with the new suppliers. He mentioned that

he had already

made calls and that all of my efforts would be futile

Melanie was delighted, but I was far from it. I never expected Josh to be such a conniving

person.

When he joined, he promised to work hard for the company and even made a proposal. He

claimed he

felt undervalued under Matthew’s leadership and wanted a platform to demonstrate his

abilities.

He insisted he wouldn’t leave Tanum Corporation, even if he were the last man standing, I

moved then, perhaps overly confident in my charmi

He reported every detail about the company, leaving nothing out. In the end, he even

offered Melanie advice, encouraging her to continue pressuring me relentlessly. Adding

that she should get the bank to join in on the collection efforts.

Even Lauren clenched her fists and muttered, “What kind of people are they?”

It wasn’t until we finished our meal and they left that I shared the situation with Lauren

and asked her to

learn more about ATL Empire

Then I drove straight back to the office. It had been a couple of days since I had been

there.

Josh hurried in with a worn–out look as soon as I entered my office. I nearly questioned my

own eyes.

Was the scene I witnessed in the little restaurant a figment of my imagination?
