Emma’s eyes widened in disbelief as she watched Alex and Dorothy walk into Thomas’
office. She immediately turned to Ethan. “Baby, what’s happening? What contract is
your father signing with Dorothy?”
Ethan shook his head. “I’m not sure too. I’m not that familiar with how things work in my
dad’s company.”
Emma huffed frustratedly. “Dorothy’s damn company used to be one of our subsidiary
companies. They’re this close to going bankrupt. If your dad does work with such a
small company, he’d run into a lot of problems during the process. You have to convince
your dad, or else it’d be too late!”
“Uhm… Yeah, I know, I know.” Ethan dismissed her remarks, clearly bothered by his
father’s expression earlier. He could tell something was amiss.
Alex and Dorothy left the CEO’s office after just ten minutes. The contract had been
signed successfully. Before they came, Charles had already discussed with Thomas
about the details of the contract. They had even settled the terms and conditions
beforehand and Thomas had no objections at all.
Firstly, with Alex’s title as a miracle doctor and his connections with the Yowells, the

Summers and Thousand Miles Conglomerate, Thomas knew just how important he was
in California.
Secondly, Charles was one of the biggest shareholders of South Cali Structures. So if
Charles wanted to have a say in a contract supposedly so minor, it had to be a big deal.
“You came out this quickly? You were thrown out right?”
Emma noticed that Alex and Dorothy had come out of the office in just ten minutes and
started cackling.
‘How could they sign a contract in just ten minutes? Even if they did, it must be
insignificant. But how could Thomas Hawk sign some insignificant contract? He’s the
CEO of the company!’
Alex and Dorothy’s silence only made Emma cockier. “So how was it? Well, I told you
so, you’re just embarrassing yourselves. Why would South Cali Structures work with
your small *ss company?
Dorothy, you should just hire a moving company now so that
you could get out of our villa… Oh, I forgot to tell you, Grandma has already given me
the villa you’re living in. Don’t you dare step foot in my house from now on.”
Dorothy turned to look at Emma, her eyes were filled with sympathy.
She wanted to speak up, but she decided not to. All she did was walk out of the office
while holding Alex’s hands.
Emma huffed and turned to demand with Ethan. “Baby, now that your father is free, let’s
go in!”
“Alright!” Ethan held Emma’s hand and walked towards the CEO’s office.
However, he didn’t expect to be blocked by the secretary. “Sorry, Young Master Ethan.
You can’t enter without the CEO’s permission.”
Ethan’s expression darkened. “Secretary Jodie, why would I need permission to see my
dad? Have you gone mental?”
Just then, Thomas’ voice came from the office. “Let him in, but have Miss Assex leave.”
