Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 1076

After the meeting, I asked Grayson to come to my office to inquire about the progress in Solaris. He reported everything truthfully, and it seemed that things were going smoothly there.

"What about the situation with Fred I asked you to keep an eye on?" I asked.

I had asked Grayson to keep an eye on Fred and the Myers family. I had my reasons for not asking Fred about it directly. Some things were clearer from a third person's point of view.

"I've got Fred under close watch now. He's learned to behave, but there are subtle movements happening behind the scenes. The old man still leans toward Fred, so the next steps shouldn't be a problem," Grayson reported.

"Keep monitoring him. If he starts to lose control, give him a little push," I instructed Grayson.

"Understood! You can trust me on this one." Grayson nodded. "But there's one thing bothering me."

"What is it?" I asked.

"The situation in Yare is too tightly sealed. We can't dig anything out, and it's hard to monitor anything clearly," Grayson said.

"Speaking of Yare, did you know that our designer, Hana, is from there?" I asked Grayson.

"I heard. Yare has its fair share of people with the Avila surname," Grayson replied casually. "Are you suspicious of her?"

"Take a closer look into it. She's almost back from her vacation," I told Grayson.

"Alright, I'll figure something out. I'll get going now," he said, preparing to leave.

Suddenly, he turned back to me, pointing outside. "What's going on out there, Chlo? That young girl seemed a bit upset."

I chuckled. "You noticed too?"

"How could I miss it? I’m not blind," Grayson said teasingly. His tone had a hint of banter, but I was pleased that he was taking notice.

Most companies discouraged office romances, but I didn't mind some romance in my workplace. My subordinates were all loyal and reliable. What was there to worry about?
