Chapter 389
Jalen did not know how to answer her when he heard what Elaina asked.
There wasn’t a lot to do in the Halton Group, and it was not because he was too busy to see Elaina, but
because of Steven.
Steven sent his men to keep an eye on Jalen. As long as Jalen came to Elaina, Steven would know. At that time, Steven might have done something to Elaina.
Jalen had to be alert, so he did not dare to come to Elaina.
But he was not idle either. He was busy buying the directors. As long as Jalen had them on his side and kicked Steven out of his position, he would have nothing to worry about anymore.
It was not easy.
Those old men always supported Steven. After all, many of them were promoted by Steven, not to mention that they were already dissatisfied with Jalen and his reforms in recent years. How could they possibly
support Jalen at this moment?
Jalen did not intend to let Elaina know about all these things. First, he did not want her to worry about him. Second, he did not want her to know the existence of Steven, in case she would be unhappy.
“What? Why don’t you say something?” The smile on Elaina’s face faded a little.
Jalen did not know what to say, which explained why he remained silent.
In other words, he was not busy with anything.
Jalen came back to his senses and noticed that Elaina was unhappy. He explained, “Just some business
affairs in the company. I have been dealing with some errands recently.”
“Is that so? What errands? Tell me. Maybe I can give you some advice.” Her aggressiveness made Jalen
frown.
Elaina was not the kind of person who wanted to get to the bottom of everything. Jalen looked at her and
said slowly, “Do you think I’m lying to you?”
