Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0497

These past few days had left me on edge. I always felt that someone like Nicholas wouldn't easily let go after being slapped.

But he seemed to have vanished from Radiant City. A whole week passed without a single word from him. Even that so-called agreement was never mentioned again.

I was relieved and invited Yasmine and Douglas over.

Nicholas and the previous shareholders of Jones Corporation signed a total of 24 contracts. Strangely, I couldn't find any issues with them. In fact, Nicholas managed to secure some very favorable terms, leaving no room for loopholes. Yasmine also shook her head.

"It's clear he put a lot of effort into these contracts. They were tailored for everyone's specific situations. Look at all the details-he has got them pinned down tight. "Ari, do you think he might be deceiving you? He might be trying to make you lose your composure."

"What benefit would he get from doing this? It would only make me hate him more. Tabitha doesn't get better here. If it weren't for him, I would have already left with her. "She probably needs to return to a more familiar environment. Douglas, please help me get Wendy's passport ready. I want to take her with me." "I'm already working on it," Douglas replied.

Yasmine comforted me, "At least you tried, so you won't have regrets. Tabitha is still young. We have many chances to intervene.

"Deena told me she has been asking her senior to finalize an intervention plan for Tabitha's situation. Let's wait a bit longer. Tabitha will be okay."

I nodded absentmindedly.

Right now, my top priority was to resolve the hidden dangers Nicholas had mentioned. I didn't want to leave only for Jones Corporation to be taken over by him.
