Chapter 525 Why Can’t I Catch Your Eye?

Aletta finished her work and happened to come over from the research department. As soon as she entered, she noticed Jason’s cold and somber expression, feeling a bit puzzled.

“What’s wrong?” she asked, walking up to him and raising her hand to smooth out his furrowed brow.

“There’s something…” Jason told her about Joe’s escape.

Aletta listened and looked somewhat surprised. She had only been speculating before, but she didn’t expect that Joe actually had a mental illness!

Nevertheless, she tried to reassure him, saying, “It’s alright, we’ll just be more cautious in the future.”

Jason still had a lingering uneasiness, but in front of Aletta, he could only nod.

Later in the evening, after Jason finished his work, he took Aletta to the restaurant to meet up with the old man.

Jason had reserved a private room in one of the upscale hotels under the Hill Group, which was lavish and elegant.

When they entered, aside from the three elderly people, Walt and the four little ones were already there. The Jay couple had also arrived.

Upon seeing them holding hands intimately, Jenny’s expression soured immediately. However, due to the presence of others, she didn’t say anything.

Aletta noticed Jenny’s gaze directed at her but disregarded her presence completely.

Then, she politely greeted, “Mr. Hill.”

Old Mr. Hill had a joyful expression on his face when he saw them, as if he hadn’t noticed that Aletta didn’t call Jenny.
