Selena was adept at self-hypnosis, allowing her to cash the check with ease. Including that amount plus the forty million, her ount bnce surged by seventy million in an instant, giving her a newfound sense of strength even as she walked. However, when she saw the new marks inflicted on her neck, her brows furrowed tightly. She wondered if she should talk to him about it next time, or she would always have to wear a scarf to cover it, which was quite odd.


    As soon as she left the hotel, she got a call from the police station informing her that Mark Green had implicated Alice. Alice had already fled abroad, and due to irrefutable evidence, an international arrest warrant had been issued. As soon as she appeared in another country, she would be extradited back home. Unless she decided to remain incognito forever.


    Mark Green and his group were definitely not going to return to the Fair family.


    The Fair family was currently in turmoil due to these people''s departure. But fortunately, Selena had secured a partnership with Cornerstone Construction, and they had sent Lucas Den over.


    After n knew these two had a good rtionship, he assigned Lucas Den toe over, indirectly letting Selena know he was willing to help.


    Selena naturally called to express her gratitude, then proceeded to sign the contract with Lucas Den.


    Lucas: "How is your sister doing?"


    Selena: "She was just scared, needed some stitches, but she''s much better now."


    Lucas Den had many ws, but when cooperating with Selena, there was one thing he made very clear he wouldn''t ask questions that shouldn''t be asked. Nor would he betray any confidences that shouldn''t be betrayed.


    For example, when Bert Thompson''s people kidnapped him and asked him to call Selena-even after being knocked unconscious, he resisted the call.


    And now, Selena, who was merely an interior designer, was suddenly signing contracts on behalf of Aether. He wisely didn''t voice any opinions, only asking, "Selena, would you like to have dinner together tonight?"


    "I have things to take care of today."


    "Alright, then I''ll head back to Cornerstone Construction and report back to Mr. Hughes."


    Selena nodded, and after Lucas Den left, she got up and left the office, only to see Lily Fair diligently cleaning.


    She seemed a bit unwell today, unable to squat down.


    Approaching closer, Selena saw the marks around Lily''s neck, someone had choked her, and her frown deepened.Text property ? N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    "Did Steven hit you again?"


    Because Lily Fair cooperated with the police, Selena had increased her sry, and now Lily could earn twenty thousand dors a month. Even in New York, this sry was more than enough to live on.


    Although New York was one of the most bustling cities, the sry ranges varied greatly, and it was fortunate to earn such an amount. Selena was grateful by nature, and Lily Fair was one of the few women who had been kind to her mother while she was still alive. She hurriedly covered the bruises on her neck, feeling somewhat embarrassed.


    Selena asked, "Mrs. Fair, having been through domestic violence for over twenty years, haven''t you ever thought about divorce? Lily Fair instantly became timid.


    Lily Fair: "Actually, it doesn''t hurt much anymore; I''m used to it. After all, he is my husband, the father of my children."


    If there were any creature in the world that could endure the most, it surely must be a married woman.


    Since she herself did not want a divorce, Selena didn''t insist further. "Just remember to go to the hospital next time." Lily Fair nodded and continued to sweep the floor diligently.


    Selena entered the executive meeting room, which had be empty due to the sudden departure of eight people. The director of human resources, who previously did not want to offend anyone, now pulled out a chair for Selena. Selena nced at the person.


    This person hadn''t wanted to offend anyone when the old guard hadn''tpletely fallen yet.


    He was shrewd he would be considered trustworthy going forward.


    Everyone present was restless, no one had expected that group to be taken away by the police.


    Selena tapped her fingertips on the table and tossed the contract signed with Cornerstone Construction onto it.


    Everyone in the room was on edge, none had anticipated that the group would be taken away by the police. Selena tapped her fingertips on the table and threw the contract she had signed with Cornerstone Construction onto it. "During this period, if there are no other orders, try seeking coborations with smallerpanies. Don''t put on airs just because we''re a listedpany; everyone needs to lower their stance."


    No one dared to contradict her. In less than a week, she had secured a deal with Cornerstone Construction and ousted eight executives. Now, everyone felt their jobs were on the line. "Those of you who have embezzled before, it''s best you confess now before I start auditing. You''re allowed to settle your ounts quietly with the Chief Financial Officer. If anyone is short even a penny when I find out, you''ll join the others at the police station."


    The people shuddered, their attitudes bing even more respectful.


    Selena couldn''t be bothered to watch these people y-act. "Within half a month, I want to see increased orders. No matter how big or small, they all need my review."


    "Yes, yes, Miss. Fair, please take your time leaving."


    A group of people escorted Selena to the door of the conference room, bowing their heads respectfully, all of them wiping the cold sweat from their foreheads.


    Selena stayedte at the office again until the evening. As she was about to take a car home, a vehicle pulled up in front of her- it was from Caterlington.
