Chapter 507


    Monique was about to object when Probert went on, "They''ll never care about how us kids feel. We''re


    invisible to them, you know. You seem pretty upset, but me? I couldn''t care less!"


    At that, Fidelia nodded in agreement, "Even my mom doesn''t tell me anything. I heard it from a


    ssmate."


    "I thought you would hear from your mother.” Hannah chimed in, eager to join the conversation.

    "As if she would talk to me about that stuff. She still treats me like I''m a kid!" Fidelia''s voice carried a


    hint of resentment.


    "And your dad doesn''t ask about you?" Hannah asked with a curious look.


    Fidelia nced up at us, "He''s even less interested in what''s going on with me!"


    Hannah and I exchanged looks, silently wondering who the mysterious "cat''s eye" on Fidelia''s phone


    could be.


    We all finished our meal in silence, and just as we returned to the living room, my dad came out of his


    room with a phone in hand, smiling at me, "You''reing with me to VitalAxis Pharmaceuticals today.


    We''ve got visitors from Goldenvale Town!"


    "Visitors from Goldenvale Town?" I was surprised. "You mean... for a project coboration?"


    He nodded, "Exactly!"


    I was genuinely curious about who this visitor might be. "Did they say who it is?"


    "Nope," my dad shook his head. "But we have to meet them anyway, right? Business is business!"


    Hannah immediately said to me, "Looks like I''ll have to cancel my ns with the kids, then."


    I quickly reassured her, "You go ahead. It''s just an initial meeting. You don''t have to be there. Go do


    your thing!"


    Hannah looked uncertain, "Are you sure?"


    I nodded confidently, "Absolutely!"


    Hannah smiled and left with those children.


    Meanwhile, I waited for my dad to finish his meal, then asked Carl for a day off. He clung to Helga,


    tearfully asking me toe back soon.


    My mom quickly distracted him by ying games and shifted his attention elsewhere.


    But I never would have guessed that the visitor from Goldenvale Town would be Irving, and even more


    surprisingly, he brought Nettie with him.


    This was my third encounter with Nettie.


    Honestly, I had no fondness for Irving, especially after uncovering some of his schemes.


    It was unexpected to see him here, his persistence clear as day.


    Upon seeing me, he was all smiles, saying, "Ms. Wilburn, long time no see! Fate has a funny way of


    bringing people together, doesn''t it?"


    I greeted him with a lukewarm smile, "Mr. Bradlee, that''s very true. After the fallout with Medsafe Liyah


    Inc., I didn''t expect to bump into you so soon in Silverdale City!"


    Heughed heartily, "In business, you can''t afford to miss any opportunity! And with such an attractive


    project in your hands, I naturally want to be at the forefront. Ms. Wilburn, I hope you can consider our


    past acquaintance and give Elixir Pharma Limited a chance to be the early bird!"


    Iughed at his boldness, thinking to myself how brazen he was to even suggest such a thing.


    While we talked, Nettie stood quietly next to Irving, her expression calm and collected, a testament to


    herposure.


    Irving didn''t make any special introductions, leaving me to wonder what he was plotting. Since he didn''t


    make a big deal of it, neither did I.


    I left the home turf to my dad, as I wasn''t too familiar with VitalAxis Pharmaceuticals, especially his


    behind-the-scenes maneuvers. I didn''t want to act rashly. New ch?pter av?ble o? Draмаnоvеls.cоm


    Irving quickly backpedaled, "I get it,pletely. I was out of line asking."


    But he couldn''t help asking, "I''ve heard that you have external technical support?"


    My dadughed, a knowing gleam in his eye that only I could recognize as shrewd calction.
