Chapter 445: Something’s Wrong With Her

Grace went to the Hartz Company’s head office to meet her father.

Colin was stressed about how all of a sudden things had started to go wrong for his company. So many investors had denied investing in new projects, and the current projects had started to face troubles with some secret controversial news that had started to come out about them all of a sudden.

There were so many allegations starting to rise against Hartz Industries and their work policies, along with the hidden frauds.

Thud!

Colin slammed the file on his desk as he looked at the few department heads and project in-charges in his company. "What the hell are you all doing? What am I paying you for? Who is spreading all this nonsense about our company?"

The employees couldn’t answer as they didn’t know who was doing it all, and at the same time, they didn’t dare tell the angry man that those were not nonsense but in fact the truths.

"I want you all to take care of it today itself. Sort it out by every way possible, even if it means for you to use unethical ways," he ordered. "Or I swear, none of you will see another day of your life."

Grace, who was outside the meeting room, heard her father scolding everyone. She flinched at his angry voice, and she was aware her father could do what he had just said.

Once everyone went out, Grace silently entered the room and went to her father’s side. She gently pressed his shoulders, as if to make him feel relaxed like she always did.

"What are you doing here, Grace?" Colin asked, trying to calm himself.

"I came to see you," she replied. "I can see you are stressed with work."

"It’s nothing," the man dismissed, letting her do her work.

After a while, Grace decided to say what she was here for.

"Dad, I want you to involve me with your work," Grace said. "You always keep me away from important work matters in the company. I am your only child, and I need to know it all."

Colin looked at her, surprised. "What’s gotten into you all of a sudden? You are my cherished daughter. All you have to do is enjoy your life in comfort and luxury. Work is for me to do."

She sighed in displeasure. "This is why I will never be able to be better than that bitch Natalie. Everyone looks at her as the owner of the most powerful business empire while I am nothing more than a spoiled daughter of a wealthy businessman. How am I going to fight that woman in the Riverdale family with no important status? Do you even know how they all bully me?"

Colin thought about what she said as he looked at his serious-looking daughter. He found her words logical and finally hummed.

"Alright. Today I have some important meetings. You should come with me," he said. "Before that, make sure to read about it. My assistant will give you some files, go through them."

Her face brightened up and she immediately nodded. She went to her own office, which she rarely used, and there she was handed over the files. Just as the assistant left, Grace took pictures of the material in the file and sent it to someone.

’I am sorry, Dad. I have to do it or I am not sure what will happen to me. I know I can’t face you when it comes to how cruel you can be. I still can’t forget the day when you pushed your own daughter to take her life, despite knowing it was I who framed her to sleep with someone and spread her videos everywhere. All just to protect your own image.’

That day, she attended important meetings with her father. The device she was carrying in her bag was sending all the details she had to someone who was listening on the other side.

Justin shook his head. "He needs to stay alive, as he has to face someone for his retribution."

"I will drag him there myself," Aaron said, as his gaze turned colder.

Just then, the two brothers heard a loud yawning sound from the busy woman. Both of them looked at her in surprise, as if she was too sleepy to even keep her eyes open for long.

Wasn’t their talk interesting enough for her to stay awake? The reason she was here despite her work was so she could know what was going on, and now she was in the mood to sleep.

Natalie sensed the gazes on her and looked at the two. "Are you two done?"

Instead of answering her, Justin asked, "Go sleep, if you are sleepy."

Now that he said it, she realized she was sleepy. "What are you even feeding me here that I am sleepy like this?" she complained, as her work was not done yet. "I am sure something is wrong with the food here. Make sure they are not adding any drug in my food."

She stood up, yawning again. "Good night," she said, and walked towards the room, leaving the two men staring at her. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

It was just early noon, and she was in the mood for night.

"You should take her to a doctor to see if there’s something wrong with her," Aaron said.

Justin hummed, and both of them got back to their work and the next plan.
