Returning from the Dead: His Secret Lover novel Chapter 1977

Chapter 1977 Capable Wife

The unexpected visit of the tax authority puzzled Susan. Although the branch here is always in the red, all of its accounts are properly recorded. In fact, they paid all of the required taxes too, not a dime was left out. I’ve personally checked everything, and I’m sure of it. What’s the purpose of their sudden visit?

A wary look flashed across Susan’s face. Soon, she exited her office. “Mr. Tanner, this is our newly appointed finance director.” The receptionist introduced several officers dressed in uniform to her the moment she stepped out of the office.

Susan scrutinized them and then proactively offered a handshake. “Hi, Mr. Tanner. I’m Susan Limmer, the person in charge of the Finance Department. Nice to meet you.” “Ms. Limmer?”

Unfortunately, Tucker Tanner paid no heed to her. He looked very arrogant, seemingly the type that came deliberately to cause unnecessary trouble.

“I’m here today to investigate the recent export case. I received a phone call from the customs this morning stating that Hayes Corporation did not register those goods.”

Tucker then waved his hand to signal his subordinate to whip out some official documents while Susan watched on, unfazed. When she was handed the documents, she tilted her head and quickly skimmed through the pages.

“Aubrey.” “Yes, Ms. Limmer?” responded Aubrey who was standing by her side the entire time.

Susan instructed her softly, “Go to the Sales Department and find out what’s going on. Additionally, ask the two staff who completed the customs clearance to come over here immediately.”

“Understood, Ms. Limmer.” She went to carry out her task at once. Then, a thought dawned on Susan, and she called out to Aubrey again. “What is Mr. Hayes up to at the moment?”

“If I’m not mistaken, he’s out with Mr. Ginn,” replied Aubrey.

“All right. If that’s the case, there’s no need to inform him about this. Go on, then.” Susan made a decision on the spot.

Once Aubrey left, Susan smiled and gazed at Tucker and his team from the local tax department.

“I’m sorry, Mr. Tanner. Please allow me to learn from my colleagues what happened first. Let me take you to the reception room. Once I have understood the whole situation, I’ll come back to you for a detailed discussion. Is that okay?”

“Are you serious, Ms. Limmer? You have no idea what went wrong? Why did Hayes Corporation send you here in the first place, then?” Tucker was obviously displeased.
