Chapter 308: Chapter 308 Unable to Sleep All Night

At night.

Michael Scott first sent a message to ask Julia Land if she had time.

Only after receiving a reply from Julia Land that she was available did he call and discuss Finn Hamilton’s matter with her, "This time Finn Hamilton incited George Fields to start a fire, Finn maintained that it was for a college friend, essentially to vent on behalf of the person in charge of Full Product, and this matter wouldn’t implicate Uncle Moore."

Julia Land responded indifferently, "After all, Claire Hamilton is Uncle Moore’s wife, and the sibling bond between Claire and Finn is strong; Finn probably wouldn’t drag Uncle Moore into this."

Michael Scott nodded, feeling it was a pity that the actual mastermind couldn’t be caught due to lack of evidence, then added, "I heard that Finn’s grandmother went to make a scene at Uncle Moore’s house."

Julia Land’s tone carried a hint of coldness, "That’s good, Uncle Moore has been too idle; it’s good for him to be occupied, and probably those in the Moore Family are regretting selling their shares to me by now."

The attempt to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice.

Michael Scott looked at the invitation in his hand, "Madame Bell came to the company this afternoon; she brought the wedding invitation of Director Bell and Celeste Lewis to give to you."

Upon hearing this news, Julia Land’s expression remained light, "Prepare a gift on my behalf to send over."

She was not in the mood to attend anyone’s wedding right now.

Michael Scott nodded, "Okay."

After hanging up, Julia Land stood in front of the window, looking at the lights under the night sky, her thoughts completely focused on her daughter.

Julia Land spent the whole night unable to sleep, so she had a cup of instant coffee in the morning to perk up.

She and Jasper Winters took the elevator to have breakfast on the second floor of the hotel.

When the elevator reached the fifth floor, it stopped, and the elevator doors opened.

Julia Land saw Elizabeth Shaw and Sophie Woods standing outside the elevator.

Elizabeth Shaw hadn’t expected to encounter Julia Land and Jasper Winters in her hometown either.

She walked into the elevator with Sophie Woods and greeted them, "Director Land, hello, Mr. Winters, hello."

Julia Land nodded at Elizabeth Shaw, showing a slight smile, "Hello."

All four were going to have breakfast on the second floor; Julia Land directly invited Elizabeth and her companion to join their table.

Had it not been for Elizabeth Shaw, she wouldn’t have even known her daughter was still alive.

Thus, Julia Land was grateful towards Elizabeth.

Elizabeth intelligently refrained from asking Julia Land what she was doing in a small place like Fair Field.

Jasper Winters asked with a smile, "Miss Shaw, I thought you were in Inkwell City?"

Elizabeth Shaw didn’t realize Jasper Winters was subtly probing her.

Because it was unusual to encounter acquaintances at such times, Jasper Winters was slightly more cautious.

Elizabeth responded with a smile, "It’s my grandfather’s big birthday, and I specially came back to celebrate for him."

Jasper Winters nodded, "I see."

Sophie Woods curiously glanced at Julia Land and Jasper Winters since she didn’t know them well and quietly continued eating her breakfast.

After breakfast, the four of them parted ways.

Julia Land requested Jasper Winters to prepare a birthday gift for Elizabeth Shaw’s grandfather.

Jasper Winters agreed and went to prepare the birthday gift for the old man, which was later sent in the afternoon by someone to the room where Sophie Woods was staying, asking her to pass it to Elizabeth Shaw.

Meanwhile, after Elizabeth Shaw and Sophie Woods finished their breakfast, they also returned to their hotel room.

Sophie Woods sat on the sofa and curiously asked her close friend, "Is that Director Land the Julia Land you mentioned before? The actual owner of our company?"

Elizabeth Shaw nodded, "Yes, that’s her."

Sophie Woods widened her eyes in surprise, "She really is beautiful, I wonder what she’s doing here?"

"Probably some business," Elizabeth laughed, "The owner is very beautiful. I’m going out to shop and then heading back to the village later; I’ll come out tonight and sleepover with you for a companion."

Sophie waved her hand, "Go ahead."

After Elizabeth left the room, Sophie leaned on the sofa, lost in thought.

She couldn’t help but suddenly think of Mr. Thompson.

Sophie rubbed her slightly red face, telling herself not to daydream.">*

On the second day of Julia Land’s visit to Fair Field Town, James Knight brought some concerning news in the afternoon.

"We heard no sound of children from the residence of that man," James Knight reported with a frown.

Julia Land’s heart tightened, walking back and forth anxiously, "Arrange for someone to take him, and be careful."

James Knight nodded, "Understood, I’ll arrange it now."

Jasper Winters probably also knew that Julia Land wouldn’t be able to eat dinner tonight.

He had the hotel chef prepare a simple green bean porridge for Julia Land.

Since arranging for James Knight to apprehend the individual, Julia Land anxiously paced around the hotel room with her phone in her hand, waiting for news.

Each passing second was torture for her.

Meanwhile, James Thompson in Capital City was also anxiously holding his phone, waiting for news.

Just then, Julia Land heard her phone ring and quickly answered it.

"Julia, your cousin is getting married, are you really..."

The voice on the other end was Madame Bell.

Madame Bell hadn’t finished speaking when Julia Land abruptly hung up the phone.

Madame Bell stared incredulously at the disconnected call.

She took a deep breath and turned to the old Mrs. Guan with a bitter smile, "Mom, she doesn’t even want to listen to me speak."

She hadn’t finished speaking, and Julia Land had already hung up the call, which was simply impolite.

Mrs. Guan sighed internally, feeling that mending the relationship between mother and daughter was unlikely, "No worries, Lyra, let’s take it slowly."

Madame Bell was already feeling somewhat displeased and dissatisfied inside.

Julia Land had just ended the call with Madame Bell when she heard a knock at the door and went to open it.

Jasper Winters walked in holding a box of green bean porridge, seeing Julia Land looking anxious, he advised, "Miss Land, why don’t you eat something first? It will be at least until late night before any action is taken to arrest that person."

Julia Land forced a slight smile, "Thank you, Assistant Winters."

The sky gradually darkened, the lights in the small town began to light up, and the streets grew sparse with pedestrians.

Late at night.

James Knight quietly approached the target residence with his team, carefully getting closer to avoid startling the people inside or the neighboring residents.

As time ticked by, every second felt excruciatingly long for Julia Land waiting for news in her hotel room.

Finally, her phone rang, breaking the silence in the room.
