Starting with A Divorce

Chapter 678 A Better Way

“Aisy is doing well, so you don’t have to worry too much,” Matteo said solemnly.

Manuel let out a sigh of relief. “I’ve assigned someone to keep an eye on

Grace.” “Aisy is deeply concerned about why Grace Yannin is there and how it relates to Lainey,” Matteo added.

“I’ll do my best to investigate and find out,” Manuel replied after a moment of thought.

Matteo briefed Manuel about the mysterious letter they received. “Based on our initial assessment, Daniel definitely knows something, but he refuses to talk. Aisy has decided to visit Daniel’s place once to uncover the truth.” “She wants to go to Daniel’s place?” Manuel’s voice sounded urgent.

Matteo didn’t want to withhold any information from Manuel. “Yes, her determination to uncover the truth is incredibly strong, and I couldn’t dissuade her. Last time, you went with her as her assistant, so this time, of course, you can accompany her as well.” “I won’t let her go alone, and there are obviously better ways to gather all of Daniel’s information.”

The Packer Group.

“Dad, why did you arrange another meeting with Orion Garner for me?” Kaliyah didn’t want to have any more contact with that overweight, middle- aged man.

“He has invited you several times, and you’ve rejected him everytime. This time, I agreed,” Bryan Packer said in a deep voice.

“If you agreed, then you should be the one going on the date. Have you already forgotten? When we had trouble last time, how did he manage to avoid me?” Kaliyah retorted.

“That’s all in the past. There’s no need to dwell on it. Mr. Garner is genuinely sincere this time. He even brought some potential business partners for the company. You have to go!”

Kaliyah couldn’t accept her father constantly using her as if she were a commodity. She was shaking with anger and impulsively smashed the vase next to the door, scattering broken porcelain all over the floor.

“Not again! Am I just a tool you can easily exploit? Whenever someone takes an interest in me, you don’t care if I like it or not, you just force me to comply.” Kaliyah had reached her limit with her current life.

Bryan angrily pointed his finger at Kaliyah and scolded, “If it weren’t for what you did, would Cason have divorced you? By the way, who was the man you brought back a few days ago? Did you go out and fool around again?” “You’re my father! Does a father speak to his daughter like that? That person was just a stranger I met on the road. But even a stranger is better than those men you forced me to meet!” Kaliyah trembled with anger. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Bryan didn’t care. “I’m doing this for the Packer company. If the company does well, your life will be worry-free. Don’t you understand this?”

He didn’t want to explain any further to Kaliyah and left with just one sentence, “You must fulfill what I promised. Mr. Garner’s car will be here this afternoon, get ready.”

After saying that, Bryan left abruptly.

In the afternoon, Mr. Garner arrived on time to pick up Kaliyah. His luxurious car stood out conspicuously in front of the door.

Bryan pulled Kaliyah towards the entrance. “Mr. Garner, girls can be a bit shy. You two will get along well.”

Kaliyah looked at Mr. Garner uncomfortably.

“Mr. Garner, actually, my dad arranged this meeting…” “I know, Kaliyah. I’ve been unwell recently, so I couldn’t come to support you. I feel guilty, so this time I brought a necklace as an apology.”

He opened the box, revealing a large pink diamond inside.

“Mr. Garner, I…”

Just then, a Lamborghini appeared in front of them, and Eli Carr slowly got out of the car. “Ms. Packer, what’s going on here?”

Kaliyah felt embarrassed as she glanced at Mr. Garner. Garner, on the other hand, asked, “Who the hell are you?” “Eli Carr,” he said bluntly.

Mr. Garner seemed taken aback and turned to Kaliyah, asking her, “Come with me.”

He opened the car door and was about to let Kaliyah get in when Eli grabbed Kaliyah’s hand directly.

Then this handsome man leaned closer to Kaliyah and whispered a few words in her ear.

Kaliyah’s face changed dramatically.

“I’ll personally apologize to you in the future, but right now, I have important matters to attend to. I’m sorry, Mr. Garner.”

After saying that, Kaliyah got into Eli’s car without hesitation.

Garner angrily slammed the car door and watched the Lamborghini drive away. He then called Bryan with a stern expression on his face.

“Why do you know about my situation? And you said you could help me get my son back. Can you really do it?” Kaliyah asked anxiously.

Eli smiled. “Knowing your situation isn’t surprising. The whole of Seattle knows about you. But I might be the only one who can help you regain custodyof your child.”

Although Kaliyah found it strange, she missed her son too much.

“How can you help me get my son back?” “I want to make a deal with you.” “What kind of deal?” Kaliyah asked cautiously.

Instead of answering directly, Eli stared at Kaliyah for a long time before speaking. “A deal like never before, an unprecedented one.”

Kaliyah became even more puzzled, but what she didn’t expect was that Eli handed her a stack of documents.

“Consider these as a deposit from me.”

Kaliyah took the documents and opened them. They turned out to be contracts from several companies.

She was immediately taken aback. Several of these companies, despite being located in other cities, were surprisingly prominent. There were even a few based in Seattle. Ordinarily, Seattle-based companies hesitated to engage directly with them, given their association with the Easton Group and Gage Group. However, the companies mentioned in these documents seemed to be exceptions to this rule.

She became even more curious about his identity and how he could mobilize so many companies.

“What do you need me to do?” “Not now, someone will inform you later,” Eli said in a deep voice. He then made a sharp turn, turned around, and drove Kaliyah back.

When Kaliyah returned home, she wasn’t afraid of her father’s reprimand because the projects she held in her hands far surpassed what the Garner could offer.

Her guess was not far off. As soon as she stepped through the door, her father greeted her with a cold stare, launching into a barrage of scolding.

“Tell me, what have you done? You discarded Mr. Garner and ran off with someone else. Don’t you know he just offered US five contracts?”

Kaliyah couldn’t be bothered with his rambling and simply placed the contracts on the table. “These were given to me by Mr. Carr. Is that enough?” “What Mr. Carr? Just because of that person, you dare to offend Mr. Garner!” Bryan angrily flipped through the stack of contracts, his voice growing softer.

“This, this…” he trembled with excitement.

Kaliyah, however, felt an unprecedented confidence. “Are these enough?

Don’t ever try to match me with him again. I don’t like him.”
