Unknown to her, someone had been following her car since earlier that day, a street stalker hired by Williams.She drove for a few minutes before noticing a particular SUV trailing behind her. She didn’t recognize it and had no idea who it was. She contemplated confronting the driver but decided against it, fearing it might be dangerous.Finally, she arrived at the upscale restaurant where Liam had asked her to meet him. She glanced at her rearview mirror and saw the stalker still behind her. Trembling for a moment, she took out her phone and called Liam."Hello, I'm at the restaurant now. Where are you?""I'm inside. Come to the table nearest the back exit. You'll find a man in a white T-shirt and blue chinos; that's me," he laughed."Okay..." she stuttered. "I don't know, but someone has been following me ever since I left home, and I thought I should let you know." Her heart was pounding."Followi

Chapter 186How about you, Liam?" Alisha asked. "Anything interesting happened at your job today?""Actually, yes," Liam said, smiling. "I had several meetings with potential new clients today.”"Oh really care to share about it?" Alisha asked him.“One wants us to develop a marketing campaign for a product launch. They have some really innovative ideas, and it could be a big account for us." Liam lied, trying to act much more professional."That sounds exciting," Alisha said. "What kind of product are they launching?""It's a new line of eco-friendly household cleaners," Liam explained. "They're made from all-natural ingredients and come in recyclable packaging. The company is really passionate about sustainability.""That's fantastic," Alisha said, impressed. "It's great to see more companies taking environmental issues seriously.""Absolutely," Liam agreed.

Instead, he had seen other cars pull up and pedestrians walk in, but there was no sign of the SUV that had been following them.He had looked away and given up hope, thinking the stalker might have retreated. Now Liam had texted that Alisha just arrived and said someone was stalking her. Kai immediately thought it was the same stalker who had been following them earlier.

He was convinced it was the same person.He casually stood up and walked to the front of the restaurant. He approached cautiously, his instincts honed by years of training with the Shadow Lotus.There were a lot o

Chapter 190It was around noon when Williams got back to the office. His mind was still reeling from the morning’s revelations. Without wasting any time, he headed straight to Mr. Sterling's office. He needed to inform him about the new developments and plan their next move.Williams knocked on the door and waited for the familiar "Come in" before entering. Mr. Sterling was sitting behind his large mahogany desk, going through some paperwork. He looked up as Williams entered, raising an eyebrow."What's the urgency, Williams?" Mr. Sterling asked, leaning back in his chair.Williams closed the door behind him and took a seat opposite Sterling. "We have a problem," he began, trying to keep his voice steady. "A few days back, I began suspecting that some guy called Liam Carter was onto us. I know because I saw him at the party, and he had a conversation with Alisha which made me suspect him further. After that, I began noticing that someone was trailing my car and following me everywhere

Chapter 191Just as Williams left Mr. Sterling's office, he quickly called Morris Huggo to come down to his office right away.A few minutes later, Morris knocked on the door and entered. "You wanted to see me, Mr. Sterling?""Yes, Morris, come in. I want to share a proverb with you," Mr. Sterling said, leaning back in his chair. "They say, 'The eagle that soars in the upper air does not worry about how it will cross rivers.'"Morris furrowed his brow, clearly puzzled. "I'm sorry, sir. I don't quite understand."Mr. Sterling sighed, then leaned forward, looking Morris directly in the eyes. "Tell me, Morris, what would you do if you found yourself in a room with a snake and a mouse?"Morris blinked, taken aback by the question. He hesitated for a moment before answering, "Well, sir, I'd probably get rid of the snake first. It's the more immediate threat."Mr. Sterling studied Morris's face carefully. After a tense pause, he nodded. "Good answer. It shows you understand prioritizing thr

It's urgent," was Eric's only response.Feeling a sense of unease, Mr. Sterling grabbed his jacket from the table and made his way to the conference room.As he entered, he saw the other board members already seated around the table: Mr. Patel, Mr. Thompson, Mrs. Jenkins, and—his heart skipped a beat—James Clarkson.Sterling's face hardened as he shook hands with the other board members, deliberately ignoring James. He took his seat at the other end of the table, his usual position as the director of the board.At the head of the table stood Eric Wood, the CEO. Eric greeted everyone, "Good afternoon, everyone. Thank you for coming on such short notice."Mr. Sterling glanced around the table, his eyes narrowing suspiciousl
