Chapter 226:
Brenna was meeting Thiago at a restaurant across from the Moreno Group headquarters, closely monitoring the developments.
Outside the company’s offices, a group of construction workers—men and women—had gathered, displaying a banner that read, “Pay us what we’re owed p>
Nearby, Brenna noticed another group, more ordinary in appearance. One person held up a portrait high, while family members beside them held a white banner that read, “Justice for our loved one p>
Both groups were clearly distressed, and the company’s security was struggling to contain them.
Just then, a voice shouted through a loudspeaker, “Roberto Moreno, come down! Roberto Moreno, you coward p>
The Moreno family held extensive real estate assets, with numerous construction projects and buildings in Shirie. As the family’s problems worsened, previously hidden issues came to light, including two buildings revealed to be of substandard construction, with cracked walls, insufficient waterproofing, and low-quality materials.
Thiago observed the unfolding chaos calmly, his expression untroubled.
“The Moreno family is nearing collapse,” Brenna said, sitting across from him. “Are you sure you don’t want the Moreno family’s assets? If you act now, you could easily secure seventy percent of their shares p>
Thiago calmly withdrew his gaze. “No, I don’t want this mess. If I take over, what’s to stop the Moreno family from trying to reclaim it once I’ve sorted everything out?” he said.
Brenna nodded, understanding his point. “They certainly will. The Moreno Group has attracted attention from tax and law enforcement. Roberto is likely to end up in prison,” she added.

Thiago laughed, showing no pity for Roberto. “He’s only getting what he deserves. It would be better if the whole Moreno family ended up in jail p>
Brenna refreshed the stock data for the Moreno Group on her phone, which continued to plummet as expected. She showed her phone to Thiago. “Look, it has reached its lowest limit again today p>
Thiago moved closer to Brenna, their heads nearly touching, creating a seemingly intimate scene.
Unbeknownst to them, Rosie sat in a corner of the restaurant, disguised by a large sun hat, secretly watching Brenna.
She angled her phone and snapped a picture that made it appear as if Thiago were kissing Brenna on the cheek.
Rosie muttered to herself, “I’ll send this photo to Ethan. When he sees how close Brenna is with another man, he’ll surely break up with her.” She immediately sent the photo to Ethan.
Just then, several vehicles from the prosecution service pulled up, and uniformed officers swiftly entered the Moreno Group building.
