Chapter 1030:
She was absolutely certain now that Millie was a scheming, manipulative snake.
Pure hatred flooded through Babette’s entire being.
Meanwhile, across the city, Millie received a text message from Egbert explaining that he’d just finished talking to Babette.
Millie had been meaning to arrange a conversation between all of them to clear the air, but she’d been so completely absorbed in her current project that the idea had slipped her mind.
She definitely hadn’t called Egbert about any of this.
Still, now that Egbert and Babette had talked things through, maybe it was actually for the best.
With any luck, Babette would finally wake up and see reality clearly.
Thinking this, Millie typed out a quick response. “When does your flight leave? Myron and I should come see you off at the airport p>
Egbert’s reply came through almost instantly. “Please don’t! I really don’t want to stand there watching you two being all lovey-dovey with each other p>
Millie let out a small laugh, shrugged, and set her phone aside. She decided to drop that particular idea.
“Taylor, I need you to come with me tomorrow to visit Foley,” Millie said, turning to her assistant.
Taylor nodded immediately. “Of course p>
Millie then began organizing the scattered documents on her desk into neat piles.
Throughout the afternoon, she made several phone calls, methodically gathering small pieces of information from various sources.
The news she was collecting spread like underground roots, reaching into many dark corners—but the crucial details she really needed remained frustratingly just beyond her grasp.

Millie pressed her hand into a tight fist.
If she truly wanted to uncover the complete truth, she knew she would have to take bold action. She needed to personally investigate the situation on the ground—only then would she be able to dig deep enough to reach the heart of this mystery. And for that, she needed a solid plan in place first.
With this thought crystallizing in her mind, Millie called over one of her most trusted employees and gave him specific instructions.
“Are you sure about this approach?” the employee asked, looking concerned.
“Just do exactly as I’ve told you,” Millie said firmly.
“Understood.” The employee nodded seriously and immediately went off to begin carrying out her orders.
The next morning arrived with clear skies, and Millie and Taylor made sure to leave early for their appointment at Yaroslav Technology, a company that had been generating significant buzz in investment circles after the exhibition.
After circling the packed parking lot several times in search of an empty space, Millie pulled out her phone and sent a quick message to Myron. “Just wanted to let you know I’ll be at Yaroslav Technology until around noon today p>
Since JM Investments was quite close to the Elliott Group headquarters, Myron had fallen into the habit of bringing lunch to share with her during the workday.
