Unemployed Family? Hidden Tycoons Dote On Her novel Chapter 677

"Corporate shark!" Alfred scoffed. "So that's the guy. We never would've guessed he had two faces."

Arabella narrowed her eyes slightly. "What do you mean, Alfred?"

"What I'm saying is, the 'corporate shark' is on Interpol's wanted list," Alfred explained. "But in our records, we never identified Logan as that same person."

"Almost no one knew that," Matthew added casually.

Well, he happened to be one of the few who did.

Arabella caught on quickly. "So you're after him too!"

"Exactly," Alfred replied, sounding noticeably more relaxed. "Then let him come."

"Guess we'll leave it in your hands," Frank said, finally letting some of the tension ease from his shoulders.

Seeing Frank's expression soften, Alfred gave a reassuring smile. "Don't worry, Frank. We won't let this go sideways."

The heavy mood that had hung over the room began to lift almost immediately.

"All right, as long as it gets handled," Florence said cautiously. She turned to Alfred, her tone turning hopeful. "So if you catch him, Naomi's company will be fine, right?"

"That's right," Alfred confirmed.

Florence then faced Naomi, her expression serious. "Naomi, once all this is over, I hope you've learned your lesson."

"Mom, I'm so sorry," Naomi whispered, sinking to the floor with tears welling in her eyes. "I never meant to hurt Frank."

"I believe you didn't mean to," Florence said gently, patting her shoulder. "Now come on, get up."

Naomi struggled to her feet, but the worry never left her face.

Ethan studied her closely. "Naomi, is there something else you're not telling us?"

He knew Naomi better than anyone else in the Hamilton family, and her anxious look told him she was still holding back.

"Huh?" Naomi seemed caught off guard, then shook her head quickly. "No... there's nothing."

But the way she said it—uneasy, guilty—gave her away.

"Naomi, if you keep hiding things and it backfires, none of us can help you then," Ethan pressed, his voice turning stern.

He was genuinely worried she'd made another reckless mistake.

"Naomi, you..." Florence looked at her daughter, disappointment washing over her face.

It hurt to see her like this.

Naomi shook her head, eyes red-rimmed, and tried to explain. "Mom, really, it's nothing like that. I'm just... I'm scared about what'll happen to my company."

"Once Alfred catches Logan, he won't be able to touch your company," Florence said, though she wasn't fully convinced.

"He can't take it over anymore, but..." Naomi's voice dropped to almost a whisper. "We already signed on a huge design project, and I can't deliver it."

If she failed to complete the job, her company would still collapse.

"Oh..." Florence let out a soft sigh, then tried to console her. "That's all right. We can find another designer to help out."
