Chapter 472 Treating Him to a Meal


    Therefore, Sydney was worried that Skylight would be thoroughly investigated by the government.


    Although Sydney hadn''t run Skylight illegally since she took it over, others must have done that


    before she came.


    After her dad killed himself, Skylight had been managed by Stephen.


    She knew Stephen very well. He was greedy for money, snobbish, and evil. He could do everything


    to get what he wanted.


    Four months ago, when Sharon took over the finance department, she found that Stephen had


    made a lot of fake ounts and evaded taxes.


    Now the fake ounts had been invalidated, and Sydney had asked Sharon to pay the taxes, but


    Sydney couldn''t guarantee that there were no other problems.


    After all, Stephen began to manage thepany six years earlier than she did, and he had a lot


    more people in the different departments of thepany than she did. She didn''t know if he had


    done other illegal things.


    But from what she knew about Stephen, he must have done other dirty things, but she had not


    found them out yet.


    Yet once they were found out by the government, Skylight would be done for.


    Looking at Sydney''s tight frown and tense face, Hunter knew what she was worried about and said


    with a smile, "Don''t be so nervous. You look too serious. I''ve said it’s good news, so just rx. The


    companies that will be investigated are Trison and Vornest."


    "Trison and Vornest?" Hearing what Hunter said, Sydney immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and


    her heart stopped racing.


    She gently patted her chest, calmed down, and asked with a suspicious face, "I’m not surprised that


    Trison is on the list. After all, in recent months, there have been many scandals about Trison, but


    why was Vornest selected? Skylight is the most likely to be investigated."


    "That''s right. Originally, they decided to investigate Skylight and Trison. Everyone knows what has


    happened between you and the Madden family recently, but


    Vornest was involved in a murder. Because the case is special, it hasn''t been announced to the


    public yet, but the government already knows about it, so they decided to investigate Vornest and


    choose between Skylight and Trison." Hunter took a sip of water.


    Sydney nodded. "Skylight was lucky enough not to be chosen, right?"


    "Yes, but it''s mainly because my father pulled strings. You know we have a feud with the Madden


    family. Of course, we would like to see theirpany be thoroughly investigated. I don''t believe that


    Trison is innocent. If Trison is found to have done something illegal, the Madden family and Trison


    will be finished. We can deal with Brandon and do not have to worry about other things."


    Hunter winked at her. "Isn''t this good news?"


    Sydney clenched her hands, unable to hide the excitement in her eyes while nodding." Of course.


    Great!"


    She and Hunter had been looking for evidence that Trison broke thew. That was why Sydney


    nted Denna into the Madden family.


    Only if they found the evidence of Trison’s crime and gave it to the police would they not be stopped


    and even be helped while taking action against Trison and the Madden family.


    But the evidence of Trison’s crime was hard to find. It had been so long, but Sydney and Hunter had


    not collected any evidence yet.


    She did not expect that the government would investigate Trison.


    The government staff members would directly go to Trison and investigate them openly, unlike her


    and Hunter, who had to act secretly, afraid of rming Brandon and making him destroy the


    evidence.


    But if the government intervened in it, there was no need to worry about this.


    After all, how could a family fight with the government?


    The more Sydney thought about it, the more excited she got. She hurriedly asked," When will the


    investigation begin?"


    "Within three months. I don''t know the specific date. After all, they will investigate ten enterprises."


    Hunter spread his hands.


    Sydneyughed happily. "Three months is fine. They will be investigated soon. If we do it ourselves,


    it will take at least a year and a half." "That''s true," Hunter said casually, putting his hands on the


    sofa.


    Because she was overjoyed, Sydney was trembling slightly. Her beautiful eyes were shining.


    In three months, she would be able to avenge her father''s death.


    This was exciting news.


    Sydney''s nose was sore, and her eyes gradually reddened.


    Seeing this. Hunter was surprised." Sydney, why are you crying?"Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    "I''m not crying." Sydney raised her head, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile, "I am


    just very happy."


    Hunter looked at her bright eyes, realizing that she was crying because of joy. He was relieved. "I


    was so worried. I thought you..." "Let me treat you to a meal,” Sydney suddenly interrupted him.


    Hunter blinked in bewilderment. "Treat me to a meal?"


    "Yes. To thank you for bringing me such good news," Sydney said as she stood up.


    Hunter smiled. "Okay. Since you are so sincere, I ept. Let''s go."


    He withdrew his hands from the sofa and also stood up.


    The two of them walked out of the apartment and drove to a fancy restaurant.


    "What do you want to eat?" Hunter handed the menu to Sydney.


    Sydney took it and flipped it through. She ordered a sirloin steak and a fruit sd. "


    That''s all." "You''re going to eat so little?" Hunter frowned.


    Sydney picked up the water ss and took a sip. "That''s enough. I can''t eat too much at night.


    Otherwise, I will gain weight."


    "You are so harsh on yourself.” Hunter opened the menu and shook his head resignedly.


    Sydney chuckled. "I have no choice. I want to keep my figure.”


    "You have such a good figure. You don''t need to care about this." Hunter looked at her chest.


    Sydney noticed his gaze and looked down. Her face darkened as she raised her hand to cover her


    chest and said unhappily," What are you looking at?"


    Hearing this, Hunter came out of his trance, realizing that he was impolite. He embarrassedly


    touched his nose and said," Sorry. I was lost in thought just now.”


    He didn’t mention why he was lost in thought.


    But Sydney knew what he was thinking.


    She sneered, "You..."


    "Waiter." Hunter snapped his fingers and immediately interrupted her, "That''s all we want. Please


    serve the food quickly."


    "Okay, sir." The waiter took the menu, smiled, and turned to leave.


    Sydney looked at Hunter coldly. "You did that on purpose, didn''t you?"


    "What do you mean?" Hunter asked innocently.


    Sydney pursed her lips. "You deliberately interrupted me." "No. I''m hungry, so I want to eat soon."


    Hunter smiled awkwardly.


    He didn''t admit that he had interrupted her on purpose.


    That was because he knew that if he admitted it, she would say that he was shameless, lewd, and


    so on.


    He didn’t want to be taunted, so it was better to change the topic.


    Sydney looked at Hunter, who was ying dumb. She was angry but could only touch her forehead


    and say, "Forget it. I''ll let you go this time. If you dare to nce at me like that again, I''ll gouge your


    eyes out."


    She bent two fingers and made a gouging motion in front of his eyes.


    Hunter pretended to be scared and leaned back. "You are so cruel."


    Sydney grunted. "I can be even crueler. You want to see it?"


    Hunter hurriedly shook his head. "No, no. I was wrong. I won''t do that again."


    Seeing him pretending to be submissive, Sydney was amused, covered her lips, andughed, her


    eyes crinkling.


    In the private room on the second floor of the restaurant, Julien stood in front of the window and


    looked down at Sydney and Hunter with an angry face.
