Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Sonia was bothered that Paradigm Co. would be placed under investigation. Although Paradigm Co.

hadn’t been involved in any illegal matters after she took over, the company had previous involvements

in shady deals.

Ever since Sonia’s father passed away, Paradigm Co. had been managed by Asher, and Sonia knew

he was a greedy man that would do anything to reach his goals.

Four months ago, when Rebecca took over the finance department, she found a lot of fake accounts as

well as cases of tax evasion, all of them Asher’s doing.

Sonia had canceled the fake accounts and got Rebecca to turn over all the evaded taxes. Still, there

might still be some hidden issues with the company.

After all, Asher had been managing the company for six years more than her. He had way more people

working under him in different departments, so she couldn’t have known if he was involved in any other

unethical transactions.

Still, based on her understanding of Asher, she knew that there were definitely more things that she

hadn’t been able to find out. Therefore, Paradigm Co. would surely be ended if it was under

investigation.

Noticing that Sonia looked tense and was frowning, Zane immediately knew what she was worried

about and chuckled. “Don’t be nervous. You look like a grandmother when you’re frowning. Calm down.

I’ve already said that it is good news. The companies in Seafield that will be investigated this time are

Triforce Enterprise and Darwin Group.”

“Triforce Enterprise and Darwin Group?” Sonia sighed in relief upon knowing that Paradigm Co.

wouldn’t be investigated as her racing heart started to calm down.

Patting her chest gently to calm herself down, Sonia asked curiously, “I’m not surprised that Triforce

Enterprise would be chosen since they’ve been involved in many scandals during these few months,

but why is Darwin Group chosen as well? By right, Paradigm Co. has higher chances of getting picked,

doesn't it?”

“That’s true. They’ve initially decided on Paradigm Co. and Triforce Enterprise because of the notorious

Gray Family feud, but a homicide happened in Darwin Group recently. Because of the unique nature of

the case, it hadn’t been announced to the public yet. Still, the authorities had already known about it, so

they decided to pick Darwin Group while leaving a spot for either Paradigm Co. or Triforce Enterprise,”

Zane explained while sipping on his water.

Sonia nodded. “So, Paradigm Co. got lucky, huh?”

“You can put it that way, but it is also mainly because of what my father did covertly. Since we held

grudges against the Gray Family, of course, we’d prefer if Triforce Enterprise got investigated. I don’t

believe that Triforce Enterprise is not involved in anything illegal, so it would be the end for the Gray

Family and their company if the authorities find something wrong with their operations. By then, we will

make our moves on Titus with no scruples.”

Then, Zane gave Sonia a look. “What do you think, Sonia? Isn’t this good news?”

Clenching her fists together, Sonia nodded with an excited look in her eyes. “Of course! This is great

news!”

Zane and Sonia had always been trying to get their hands on evidence that Triforce Enterprise was

involved in illegal transactions, and that was why they arranged for Taylor to infiltrate the Gray Family.

If they could get evidence of Triforce Enterprise’s crimes and hand them over to the relevant party, no

one wouldn’t stop them from making a move on Triforce Enterprise and the Gray Family. In fact, they

might even get support.

However, Triforce Enterprise had been covering up their tracks really well, so Sonia and Zane couldn’t

get their hands on any evidence even though they had been investigating for a long time.

In a twist of events, the authorities actually wanted to launch an investigation on Triforce Enterprise

now.

Instead of doing secret investigations like Sonia and Zane to prevent Titus from getting alerted and

destroying evidence, the authorities could conduct a broad investigation. The professional search team

deployed by the authorities didn’t have to worry about alerting anyone, seeing how powerful they were.

At the thought of that, Sonia got even more excited as she urged, “Zane, when are they starting the

investigations?”

“It should be within these three months. I can’t tell when for sure since they have ten companies to

investigate after all,” Zane answered before shrugging.

Right then, Sonia grinned cheerfully. “Three months is fine. It should be pretty quick. If it was us

investigating, I bet we will need more than a year for this.”

“You’re right,” Zane answered in a laid-back tone while he placed his hands on the backrest behind

him.

At the same time, Sonia’s body was trembling due to excitement as her beautiful eyes glowed.

Three months. After the wait, I’ll finally be able to get revenge for Dad. This is fantastic news for me.

Suddenly, she felt like crying before her eyes turned red.

Upon seeing that, Zane was taken aback before he asked, “Sonia, why are you crying?”

“I’m not crying.” Sonia looked up at him before wiping the corner of her eye, showing a wide grin. “I just

feel really happy.”

When Zane noticed Sonia’s glistening eyes, he believed those were tears of happiness, so he let his

guard down. “You really scared me. I thought you—”

“Dinner is on me.” Sonia suddenly cut him off, leaving him blinking in confusion. “Dinner is on you?”

“Yeah. I want to thank you for bringing me such good news,” Sonia stood up and explained while Zane

chuckled. “Sure. I won’t reject your offer seeing how genuine you are. Let’s go.”

He removed his hands from the backrest of the couch and stood up. Then, the two of them left the

house and drove to a high-end fine dining restaurant.

“What do you want to eat?” Zane passed the menu to Sonia.

After looking through the menu, Sonia decided on a sirloin steak and a bowl of fruit salad. “I’ll get

these.”

“Is that enough?” Zane frowned while Sonia reached out to take a sip of her water. “How is it not? I

don’t want to overeat since it’s easier to gain weight at night.”

“Why are all women like this?” Zane commented helplessly while going through the menu as Sonia

chuckled lightly. “There’s no choice, since all of us want to take care of our body image.”

“Well, you don’t have to care about it, since your body is perfect.” Then, Zane’s eyes landed on Sonia’s

chest.

Noticing his gaze, Sonia lowered her head to see where Zane was looking, and her face darkened

before she reached out to cover her chest and snapped, “Zane, what are you looking at?!”

Zane came back to his senses upon hearing Sonia’s protests before he realized his impoliteness,

rubbing his nose sheepishly. “I’m sorry. I zoned out a little just now.”

He would never tell Sonia what he was looking at before he zoned out, but how could Sonia not know?

She chuckled coldly. “You really—”

“Excuse me.” Zane signaled for the staff and cut her off immediately. “That’s all for now. Make it quick.”

“Yes, sir.” The waiter took the menu back and left with a smile while Sonia glared at Zane coldly. “Did

you do that purposely?”

“What do you mean?” Zane acted as if he didn’t understand what Sonia was talking about.

She pursed her lips. “You interrupted me purposely.”

“It’s not like that. I’m just hungry, and I want my food now,” Zane replied with a deliberate smile on his

face.

Fine. I’ll admit that I did it on purpose, but that’s because I knew she was going to call me a shameless

person or a pervert. It’s better for me to change the topic than to admit that I’m a pervert anyway.

On the other hand, Sonia was annoyed, especially after seeing through Zane’s horrible acting skill.

“Fine. I’ll let you off this time, but I’ll definitely dig your eyes out if I catch you checking me out again.”

Then, she curled two fingers up and brought them near his eyes before making a digging motion while

Zane acted as if he was afraid and took a few steps backward. “Damn, you’re truly cold-hearted.”

Sonia harrumphed. “Well, I can do better than that. Would you like to have a go?”

Zane immediately shook his head. “Please, no. Have mercy, Your Highness. I’ve learned my lesson.”

Zane’s cheeky acting eased the situation. Sonia grinned from ear to ear, covering her mouth as her

eyes looked like crescents.

At the same time, Toby, who was sitting in one of the private rooms of the restaurant, had a really dark

expression on his face.
