But Amelia knew very well that this was all Regina’s idea.

She had removed many of Regina’s people from the Nygard Group. If Regina didn’t fight back, she would be in real trouble.

“You still need to be careful. She might set a trap or try some trick again,” Elian said.

Amelia replied calmly, “Her tricks are always the same. Let’s just watch and see.”

Amelia truly didn’t take people like that seriously.

Someone like Gianna couldn’t be helped, even by someone as smart as Regina.

If no one had been watching her, she would have gotten herself killed many times by now.

What interested Amelia more was who was backing Regina and what kind of connection she really had with the Jordans.

After chatting for a bit, the two of them went together to the Nygard Group’s main cultivation base for a routine inspection.

After Gianna was suddenly transferred there, she wanted to go along too. But Amelia arranged for her to stay behind and help with small tasks with the others.

Here, Amelia had both the power and the authority to decide that.

No matter how angry Gianna felt, she had to obey. Regina had told her there was something much more important she would be asked to do later.

But the timing wasn’t right yet, so she could only be patient.

“I always feel like our company has more cultivation bases than just these. It feels like there’s some hidden base I don’t know about,” Amelia said casually while checking the site.

On the surface, nothing seemed unusual. The government had already trusted the Nygard Group with many projects and facilities.

But Amelia’s instincts were usually right.

She believed that for a company to be the sole state-level monopoly, there had to be secrets.

There must be projects that were never shared with the public.

Elian said, “Probably not. I’ve worked at Nygard Group for many years, and I’ve never heard of any secret bases or hidden projects.”

He frowned and thought about what she said for a long time.

He really couldn’t think of anything strange.

He added, “Unless it’s a place only Mr. Nygard and his closest people know about. Or maybe Marcelo’s

“Amelia, do you think that’s possible?”

Amelia shook her head. “I don’t know either.

“Maybe I’m just guessing. Or maybe it’s real, but not something we could easily find out.”

Since there was no proof, they both understood and stopped talking about it.

After finishing the routine inspection, all that was left was to arrange some follow-up work and confirm the formula Amelia had assigned. Then they left the base.

“Do you want to go out for lunch together?” Elian asked.

He checked the time. It was already lunchtime.

They worked together and sometimes ate together. That was normal.

So Amelia didn’t say much and didn’t refuse.

She took out her phone, ready to order takeout.

Most of the time, Elian was the one who ordered food. She felt she should treat him at least once, or it would feel rude.

Elian said, “Today isn’t that busy. Why don’t we eat out?

“There’s a pretty good restaurant nearby. Want to try it?”

Elian had wanted to say this many times, but he never knew how to start.

He had never been the one to invite a girl out to eat before.

Now he felt that if he didn’t speak up and take the first step, he might never get another chance.

Amelia was a little surprised by his invitation.

She and Elian were almost like childhood friends, so she knew him pretty well.

He was usually quiet, liked being alone, and almost never asked anyone out to eat.

Amelia used to think he just didn’t like going out for a relaxed meal and felt it was a waste of time.

After all, he had always been a workaholic.

But then she remembered how he ordered takeout for her so many times and never let her pay him back.

So this time, she felt it was only right for her to treat him to a nice meal.

After thinking it over, Amelia smiled and agreed easily. “Sure.”

Elian didn’t expect her to say yes so quickly, and he felt happy inside.

“Then let’s go,” he said.

The two of them headed straight to a nearby restaurant. It was a fusion restaurant,

The restaurant served simple meals, but the decor inside felt warm and stylish.

The food was plated beautifully, so many office workers, managers, and even top executives liked to ear there.

The restaurant was always very busy. People often had to make a reservation or wait in line.

Elian knew the owner well, so they were able to go in right away without waiting or making a reservation.
