Chapter 1223 I Found Adrian

 “What was the oue?” Cecilia couldn’t help but ask, curiosity gnawing at her.

 Charlotte, who had already heard the details, responded quickly. “Nichs managed to keep his position, but the shareholders gave him an ultimatum. If thepany faces another crisis like this within a year, he’ll be dismissed for good.”

 Cecilia nodded thoughtfully.

 After sitting down, Charlotte couldn’t help butment, “But seriously, who on earth is behind Imminence Corporation? They’re incredibly powerful, constantly overshadowing and controlling Orion Corporation. It’s like they’re always one step ahead.”

 Cecilia had wondered the same. “I’ve tried looking into it before, but there’s barely any information out there. She paused for a moment as a thought urred to her. “But you know, Eric might know something. He’s a signed artist with them.”

 Charlotte’s eyes lit up. “Really? As expected of Eric!”

 s, they were unaware of just how much Eric, far away overseas, was suffering. The once carefree celebrity was now stuck filming advertisements in harsh conditions, miles away from the mour he was used to.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.

 Even Marcus frequently asked, “Did you offend someone at Imminence Corporation? I mean, why else would they send a superstar like you to such a miserable location?”

 Eric, exasperated, would shake his head every time. “How would I know? You know I’ve always treated people well. Can you reach out to them and sort this out? Maybe you can ask them to let me out of my contract, I’ll handle the termination fee.

 “All right,” Marcus agreed.

 Over at Imminence Corporation, Mason reported the situation to Nathaniel. “Boss, it seems Eric wants to terminate his contract and return to Tud. He’s fed up with the situation in Alendor.”

 Nathaniel, who was already in a sour mood, scoffed. “Tell him toe back if he wants to discuss breaking the contract.

 Mason, surprised by the sudden leniency, asked, “Are we really going to let him go?”

 Nathaniel was only worried about Eric because of his blindness. Now that he was fully recovered, Eric was the least of his concerns.

 “I want him to understand that he’s not good enough for Cecilia, Nathaniel said.

 “Understood.”

 As Cecilia and Charlotte were discussing work, Cecilia’s phone rang. It was Eric, much to her surprise.

 “Ms. Ceci, I’ll be back soon,” Eric’s voice came through, sounding lighter than it had in a long time. “This time, we can finally enjoy ourselves without any interruptions.

 you to a meal when you’re back,” Cecilia responded. “Lottie’s in Tud too. We can catch up

 “Deal.” Eric said before ending the call.

 Marcus, who had overheard part of the conversation, sighed deeply. “You should really stop involving yourself with married women, especially when they’re pregnant.”

 “Can’t we just be friends?” Eric said.

 Marcus shook his head, unable to say anything more.

 Back at the office, Cecilia casually mentioned to Charlotte that Eric was returning, causing Charlotte’s eyes to sparkle with excitement. T

 The two women continued chatting andughing,pletely unaware of the cold eyes watching them from the hallway.

 Miranda, who had overheard part of their conversation, stalked past with a scowl, making her way to Robert’s office.

 Robert was sipping coffee, clearly displeased with how the day’s board meeting had unfolded. He hade so close to securing the CEO’s position, but Nichs still had too many supporters, especially his mother–inw, Queenie, who had been fiercely protective.

 “Dad,” Miranda called softly.

 “What is it?” Robert asked, looking up at her.

 “I’ve found Adrian.”

 Robert immediately stood up. “Where is he?”

 Miranda’s expression was troubled. “He’s in the hospital right now.”

 Without another word, Robert grabbed his coat. “Let’s go.”
