Chapter 407 Not Confident

I had fully expected disaster to strike Harmon Group. Leonard had gotten himself into a controversial position over his relationship with Amelia back then, and the controversy had only gotten worse now.

"The old timers are done supporting him too. Word has it that the board of directors is really coming down on him. Luca's influence is no joke either. The chairman intends to twiddle his thumbs and do nothing while the fire of this disaster rages on. He's basically doing nothing.

"It feels like I'm having 800 meetings every day, and Luca still finds the time to barge in and boss us around. It's like he's going to be promoted to be the CEO any day now."

Emma's gripe about Harmon Group got more intense, but it didn't faze me in the least. These disasters wouldn't have happened if Leonard had obediently given up the evidence earlier.

"Anyway, I've heard that the falsely accused employees are grouping together to press charges against Harmon Group. Do you want to be a part of it, Eva? After all, you almost became the fall guy."

Emma produced her cell phone, and there were actually a good number of my former colleagues who intended to file a joint lawsuit.

After all, a lot of people were forced to work in another industry after they were fired by Harmon Group. They couldn't land a job in the same industry after they made such a "blunder ". A single false accusation was enough to ruin someone and their family for life. With that said, I didn't intend to file a lawsuit. "I'm not doing it. After all, they haven't done

anything to me. I wouldn't get anything in return for the lawsuit.

"What they're getting now is enough for me. Harmon Group is going to be haunted by court cases in the future."

The partial collapse of Rainstream Heights was going to involve a substantial amount of compensation. That wasn't even talking about the various follow-up investigations. I predicted that Harmon Group would lose several tens of millions of dollars for each project. I wasn't too sure about Harmon Group's current situation. If they really had to pay the compensation, there was no way Luca would let Leonard off the hook.

The company would have to do it if they wanted to salvage their reputation, which meant they

were in for a ton of work.

When Jack came in, Emma was still grumbling to me about Harmon Group. He coughed lightly. "It's time for your meal."

I instinctively took out two sets of cutlery from the nightstand's drawer. Emma immediately rose to her feet and asked, "What did you make, Mr. McLennan?

Chapter 40? Not Confident

"Let's see. You made lamb barley soup, chicken Caesar salad, and shrimp boil for Eva. I can tell that these aren't for me. So, I'm going to leave you two to it. I think I'm full from just seeing this lovey-dovey moment:" Emma pinched my cheek lightly and giggled. "You're doing great. You're getting slightly chubbier. I'll catch you again!"

I couldn't even be bothered to say another word to her. I started scooping soup into my bowl by myself.Text © owned by .

Jack chuckled and said, "You two are such good friends. Why didn't you ask her to stay for a meal?"

"Better not. She might look skinny, but, boy, she has a huge appetite. Back in college, Leonard could buy a lot of food, and she..." I suddenly stopped speaking, and it felt a little awkward in the ward.

I waved repeatedly. "My point is, she can really eat. If we ask her to join the meal, there won't be enough for us."

Jack ignored what I said earlier and gave me the cutlery.

"Let's invite your friends to my place for a meal next time. You haven't been to my house ever since you returned to Pyrosia." There seemed to be something in his eyes that kept pulling me

1. in.

I immediately lowered my head and ate my food. I didn't dare to say anything anymore. To be frank, I had been feeling uncomfortable for the past few days. I was heartbroken when I thought about Amelia and Daryl.

On the other hand, Jack was very patient. Although he wasn't the chatty type, he was able to coax me into eating more food.

With that said, I really couldn't eat anymore. So, I quickly changed the topic. "How are things for the Manovia project? Did it get off to a good start?"

"Not really." Jack put down his knife and fork, his expression turning stern.

I hurriedly sat upright. "Did something happen?

"It's not a big deal, but I'm going to need you to recover faster. I don't feel confident without my chief designer." Jack flashed me an affectionate smile, which also brought a grin to my face.

The warm and yellowish light from the ward shone on him. The sight of it made me feel warm in my heart as well.
