Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1223

"Sir, what you said is quite interesting!" The cold voice dripped with mockery. "We're a proper foreign corporation. How could we possibly do something that violates Centrolis' law?"

"Oh, no, that's not what I meant! Hello?"

The person on the other end had already hung up before Tobias could continue.

On the other side of the phone.

Aurelia was dressed in a bright blue dress. She lazily put down the phone and smiled mischievously at Zuko and Lina.

"This voice changer is amazing!" she exclaimed. "It changed my voice to a man's!"

"Your acting skills are superb, Aunt Aurelia!" Zuko praised. "You're truly my uncle's talented protegee!"

Aurelia winked and took Lina's hand. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her. Lina felt the same way—it was as if they had known each other for a long time.

During her last visit to the palace, Lina didn't have proper clothes to wear and had to borrow Aurelia's gown. Now, seeing Aurelia in person, she was amazed that even in middle age, she still looked stunning.

Aurelia's mixed-race features gave her a deep and unforgettable beauty that was complemented by her natural elegance.

"How about that?" Zuko sat next to Lina and grabbed her shoulders, smiling. "I told you my aunt is beautiful. I didn't lie, right? It's a shame my uncle is so busy these days, thanks to my dad. Otherwise, you could meet him today!"

"It doesn't matter if she meets him." Aurelia shrugged. "The most important thing is that I've met our Pammy. That makes the trip worth it!"

"Aunt?" Zuko was startled, but then he remembered. "Your... Pammy?"

"What's wrong with that?"

"What about me?"

During the board of directors meeting, Nicholas deliberately mentioned that there might be a mole in the company. He wanted to get to the bottom of it and eliminate the mole.

Tobias had been in a state of panic for the past few days, feeling like an ant on a hot pan. Despite the Thompson Group's size, he was merely an employee with limited influence. Only Melvin, among the directors, had some say, and Tobias knew he was just a tool.

Though he recognized his status, he still wanted to gain some advantage for himself. He had his eyes set on the piece of land where the film studio was supposed to be built.

Never did he imagine that the truth would eventually come to light. The stress had caused mouth ulcers, and even drinking water was painful.

Frustrated, he hurled the glass at the door.

Coincidentally, Gia was visiting, and some of the crushed glass fell on her feet, making her scream in shock.
