After some time, Evan called Reuben and said, “Keep an eye on Casey.”
Reuben replied, “Yes, sir.”

It was the day of the new clothing line release for the upcoming season at TYC. Caroline was in a
meeting, her attention fixed on the sample clothing pieces.
The head of the sales department, John, spoke. “Ms. Shenton, if the sample clothing checks out, we can
proceed with the release today.”
Caroline replied, “We can’t afford any mistakes with this batch. The fashion department needs to
coordinate and inspect the factory’s work daily.”
Anna nodded. “Yes, Ms. Shenton.”
Caroline checked her watch–it was 9:57 a.m.
The room fell silent as everyone waited.
As soon as the clock struck 10:00 a.m., John swiftly pressed the preorder button. Within minutes, the preorder quantity increased
significantly, bringing relief to Caroline. She realized the company might not lag behind MK judging by the current trend.
To lighten the mood, she shifted the conversation. “We’re gearing up for the annual party. Any exciting
ideas?”
“Lucky draw!”
“Masked ball!”
“Let’s ditch the old party format and try something innovative!”

Caroline was heading to the company cafeteria for lunch when her phone rang as she entered the
elevator.
Answering Neil’s call, she said, “Neil.”
Neil chuckled. “I saw your new product sales. They’re doing great.”
Caroline smiled. “I sense a dinner invitation in your tone.”

“That’s spot on. I just arrived at your building’s ground level. I’ll wait for you,” Neil replied.
Caroline was surprised, “You should have given me a heads–up. What if I’m busy?”
Neil teased, “Can’t an older brother wait for his younger sister?”
Caroline laughed. “See you later.”
“Sure.”
Three minutes later, Caroline got into Neil’s car.
Neil instructed the driver to increase the heater temperature and said, “I’ve got something to show you.”
Caroline raised an eyebrow. “Could you stop with the suspense?”
Neil grinned and affectionately ruffled Caroline’s hair. “You might lose your appetite before lunch if I
reveal it now.”
Caroline chuckled. “You’re such a mystery.”
Neil playfully said, “Isn’t anticipation a good thing?”
At the restaurant, Neil ordered Caroline’s favorite food. As they neared the end of their meal, he sent a

document to Caroline’s phone.
“Check your phone, Carol,” Neil reminded her.
Puzzled, Caroline opened the document and frowned upon reading its content.
“Did you just receive this?” Caroline asked Neil.
Neil nodded. “I dug this up with some effort. Our father was involved in a project bid against the Jordans years ago. He initially
won the project, but the Jordans later acquired it.”
Caroline’s hand trembled. “So, you’re suggesting the Jordans might have had a hand in our father’s death?”
Neil replied, “I can’t say for certain as two other renowned companies were competing with our father. However, both of those
companies have since declined. I’ll have someone continue the investigation.”
A shiver ran down Caroline’s spine. The Jordans had a history of ruthless competition. Caroline asked, “What about the owners
of those two companies now?”
