Chapter 576
Day and night, a group of people stood firm outside the EverBest Group’s building.
Some folks brought them food, and there were even RVS parked nearby to provide them with basic
necessities.
Reporters were on the scene broadcasting live, and it seemed like the EverBest Group was in a tight
spot.
If the EverBest Group tried to shoo these people away, the consequences would be pretty severe.
So they had no choice but to send a representative to negotiate. This implied that everything these
people were saying was true, especially since they had evidence to back it up.
They’ve waited ten years; they’ve got to have solid evidence.
The housing contracts and third–party inspection reports they brought were all legally binding.
Faced with these hard facts, the EverBest Group had no choice but topensate.
Meanwhile, the negative press about the EverBest Group on the inte was piling up!
This time, the EverBest Group crossed a line with ordinary folks.
If they didn’t explode in silence, they’d perish in silence.
Carlene rushed to the Raymond Corporation; tears welled up in her eyes as she looked atn,
holding a notebook in her hand.

Holden was involved too, but he didn’t telln because he had promised Maja not to interfere in
their affairs.
The EverBest Group caused quite a stir online today; it was a big deal.
Just as Carlene was about to continue,n’s phone rang. It was Fitch.

“My brother didn’t keep a diary.”
“True, but Eric had tons of notebooks for jotting down random data. This one was bought in thest
month, and the color of the inner shell is different from his usual style. So I guess he might have given
this notebook to someone he knew. The top brass have finished organizing all of Eric’s belongings, and
they’ve been tracking for years, but that notebook is nowhere to be found.”

“What is it?”
“A notebook.”
Carlene said it casually because Eric Raymond had always been into research and was a real
brainiac.
She guessed thatn’s obsession with what Eric left behind had to do with some sort of research.
This time, Carlene just got lucky, and Fitch’s call made her lie seem more real.
Her palms were sweaty, and she was scared to death.
She wanted to save the Shepard family and hoped the EverBest Group could pull through this crisis.
If the Shepard family went bankrupt, how much ridicule would she face?
Although Edith liked her, she hadn’t called her yet; she was obviously weighing the pros and cons.
Carlene was freaking out; she didn’t want to be tossed aside like trash.
“A notebook?”
Carlene went pale. She forced a smile and said, “I’ll admit I’ve been a bit selfish. I chose to hand over
Eric’s gift now. After all, he’s gone; I don’t want to stir up trouble with his belongings.”
Currently, both Fitch andn suspected Eric had feelings for Carlene, and

But since Eric had passed away and the only woman he’d been in contact with was Carlene, there was
no way to verify her im.
