CHAPTER 607: CHAPTER 607: SOMETHING REALLY HAPPENED

"...So, did something really happen to you?"

In the office, Rhys Jacobs looked at Evelyn Clayton in shock, unable to speak for a long time.

Evelyn Clayton smiled helplessly, "Otherwise, I’ve been away so long, did you think I was on a vacation?"

Rhys murmured, "I thought that someone like you would never get into trouble."

"What?" Evelyn was both crying and laughing, "I’m not made of iron."

Rhys’ eyes turned redder, "I just thought you were omnipotent, so..."

Yara Reagan pursed her lips, laughing secretly: "Rhys actually admires you a lot, he’s just embarrassed to tell you. When he heard about something happening to you, he even cried secretly."

Rhys was a bit embarrassed, his gaze evasive, "Let me get you some tea."

"No need for now." Evelyn stopped him, looking at Yara, "Where’s Violet Ford? When will she arrive?"

As she was speaking, Yara glanced at her phone, her eyes lit up: "She’s here!"

With that, Yara got up excitedly and went out.

Soon, the office door was opened again.

"What big client is this? Why haven’t you mentioned it before—"

Violet Ford’s slightly helpless voice stopped abruptly as she entered the room.

Evelyn turned around and met Violet’s incredulous eyes with a smile.

"You..." Violet’s eyes reddened as soon as she opened her mouth, and then she rushed forward to hug Evelyn tightly.

"Where have you been all these days?" Violet said with a sobbing tone, "I really thought something happened to you! We couldn’t find you anywhere..."

Evelyn patted her back, holding back the urge to cry, "I went to handle big matters, rest assured, I’m all good now."

Violet cried to her heart’s content, calming down after a while.

Finally, Evelyn managed to meet everyone she needed to see.

After Violet’s emotions settled, Evelyn had to recount her situation over the past two months to her again.

When she mentioned the Sinclair Family, Violet’s eyes widened significantly.

"Are you talking about that Sinclair Family?" Violet was incredulous, "The Sinclair Family of Aethelburg?"

Evelyn nodded, "It’s quite surreal, but it’s a good thing."

"It’s more than a good thing!" Violet’s expression was inexplicably excited, "Do you know that even the Royal Family wouldn’t dare to mess with the Sinclair Family? The Apex Group under them does half of their business overseas, even the Royal Family knows them!"

Evelyn was not very surprised since she had learned quite a lot about the Sinclair Family during her time there.

"Violet, you should understand why I am cooperating with the Sinclair Family." Evelyn thought using the word ’cooperate’ was quite suitable, "For what’s coming next, I’ll have to handle most of it on my own. However, it’s not that I won’t need your help."

Violet tightly grasped Evelyn’s hand, "I understand! You even have ideas to deal with them, I really... You have no idea, Summer Monroe is practically strutting around now! She got public project bids for real estate, which basically means she’s collaborating with the Chandler Family of Aethelburg!"

Evelyn’s gaze subtly changed.

Violet continued angrily: "Once this project is completed, Summer Monroe will have truly secured her position as the CEO at the Ford Family..."

"They’re not hiding it anymore, are they?" Evelyn chuckled lightly, "That’s good, the more they show themselves, the more we know. Knowing oneself and one’s enemy is key to a hundred victories."

Violet nodded, then her expression darkened again, "You’re right... but there’s one thing I still need to tell you in advance."

"Summer Monroe, she changed her assistant, the person is called Gregory Barnes, seems to have quite a background."
