Chapter 331: Chapter 331 Tea Words and Talk
Zachary Wenchester saw through the surveillance camera installed at the entrance of his home corridor, Noah Quarter dragging his suitcase out.
He first texted Emily Yeat to inquire about the situation.
[Emily, I saw your husband dragging his suitcase out, I... did you guys have a fight?]
These nosy and gossipy words, something Zachary Wenchester, who aspires to be supported by a wealthy woman, is adept at.
Upon receiving Zachary Wenchester’s message and thinking about the impending divorce, Emily Yeat immediately called Noah Quarter, "When are you coming back to Yeat Clan to take your luggage away?"
While in the car, Noah Quarter saw the message from Emily Yeat but decided to ignore it and chose not to reply.
Emily Yeat then asked Assistant Liao, and only then did she learn from Assistant Liao that Noah Quarter was going on a business trip to Malaysia tomorrow.
She scoffed, thinking that even about to be kicked out of Yeat Clan, he’s still so proactive; she even suspected whether Noah Quarter could not bear to leave Yeat Corp, or whether he didn’t want to divorce at all.
Emily Yeat replied to Zachary Wenchester, [He’s going to Malaysia for a business trip, and we’ll get a divorce when he returns. I had already called him to settle the divorce tomorrow, but who knew he still had to go on a business trip, no idea what he’s thinking]
Zachary Wenchester, brimming with joy, took a screenshot of Emily Yeat’s reply and sent it to Douglas Hayes.
Upon receiving the screenshot from Zachary Wenchester, Douglas Hayes immediately arranged for someone to keep a close watch on Noah Quarter.

At seven in the evening, Julia Land learned of Noah Quarter’s trip abroad from the screenshot forwarded by Douglas Hayes.
"Mr. Thompson, do you have any contacts in Malaysia? Noah Quarter is going on a business trip there tomorrow, and I feel something is fishy."
While feeding James Thompson apples, Julia Land analyzed doubtfully, "After Emily divorces him, Yeat Clan wouldn’t possibly let him continue working at Yeat Corp, yet he can still go on a business trip for Yeat Corp under these circumstances, strange."
James Thompson ate the apple and paused his work while raising an eyebrow, "It is indeed strange that he’s still going to Malaysia under these circumstances. Once he’s there, do you want to continue tracking him? Or what?"
"I’m not sure, but I just feel that things aren’t so simple," Julia Land, munching an apple herself, thought and said, "Let someone track him first, and react accordingly if something is amiss."
James Thompson nodded and made a phone call to arrange this.
After the phone call.
Julia Land brought up another matter, "Regarding the new manager for Dale Group, I already have a candidate in mind, I believe he will be up to the job."
James Thompson replied with a faint smile, "Michael Scott?"
The two shared an unspoken understanding.
Julia Land smiled and nodded, "Yes, him."
After speaking, she suddenly fell silent for a moment.
She put down the fruit plate in hand, walked over to pull open a drawer and took out a domestic map.
She returned to sit beside James Thompson, then spread the map out, "Mr. Thompson, I don’t know where to start looking for my daughter, I plan to begin from south to north, from town to village. For the urban areas which are too vast, I’ll deal with them later."
She would spend her lifetime searching every place for her daughter.
In fact, both Julia Land and James Thompson were very anxious, knowing that if their daughter had grown up, her appearance would surely have changed.
They didn’t know, after the surgery and being so young, what she would... look like upon growing up.
James Thompson held Julia Land’s slightly cold hand, "Where do you want to start searching from?"
After studying the map, Julia Land pointed to a place, "The very south, here."
James Thompson looked at where she was pointing and nodded, "Alright, let’s start from there. Give me a bit more time, the lawyers are currently dealing with some regulatory issues right now."
Julia Land smiled and leaned her head on James Thompson’s shoulder, exhaling deeply, "Mr. Thompson, I’m planning to go first, and you can come and meet up with me later."
James Thompson did not intend to stop Julia Land from searching first, he respected her and murmured, "Okay."
**
The next morning, at Dale Group.
Michael Scott and Tyler Hughes were called into the office by Julia Land.
Julia Land stood up from her chair, walked over to the sofa, and gestured for Michael Scott and Tyler Hughes to sit down.
She personally poured tea for the two of them.
After setting down the teapot, she looked up at them and said, "Since I took over Dale Group, thank you both for your help."
The sudden politeness of the boss blew the minds of Michael Scott and Tyler Hughes.
Could it be that they were about to be fired by the boss?
Julia Land had no idea her momentary kindness and politeness would lead them to think so far ahead.
She continued, "Going forward, I need to devote more time and effort to searching for my daughter. I’ve already found the right person to take over the company. He has ample experience and capability and I believe he will lead Dale Group to further growth and prosperity."
Now was a time when Dale Group was growing, but under these circumstances, Julia did not hesitate to step back.
Although Michael Scott felt a bit regretful, he still professionally asked, "Who is the future chairman?"
Some chairmen prefer to use their own people, and their positions might change when that time comes.
Julia Land looked at Michael Scott, smiled, but didn’t immediately answer his question. Instead, she turned to look at Tyler Hughes, "Assistant Hughes, I plan to adjust your position, you will be the chief assistant from now on."
Tyler Hughes was startled briefly and instinctively looked towards Michael Scott, "What about the senior?"
Although he had joked with Michael Scott before about taking over his chief assistant position, it was just a joke.
Julia Land smiled meaningfully and jokingly said, "From now on, Michael Scott is your superior; he is the future chairman."
Tyler Hughes was dumbstruck, "..."
Michael Scott was also surprised, but he quickly reacted. Seeing Tyler Hughes looking dejected, he laughed, "You feel wronged working under me?"
Tyler Hughes straightened his chest and grinned, "Senior, congratulations! My raise in the future depends on you."
Michael Scott laughed and patted Tyler Hughes on the shoulder, "Don’t worry, little Hughes, as long as you work hard, a future raise is absolutely no problem."
Julia Land watched them bicker and lighten the mood, then she started discussing the official matters.
Julia Land always demanded speed; after discussing with Michael Scott, she immediately called a shareholder meeting.
Since Julia held a large amount of shares, and the company’s shareholders left were few after being worn down by Uncle Moore and others, her decision was quickly passed.
The company issued a public announcement about the management change, causing quite a stir.
The public relations department of Dale Group immediately coordinated actions, announcing that all business operations were normal, emphasizing that this change in management would not affect the company’s operations.
Julia Land’s actions were quick and fierce, leaving people in Capital City’s circles stunned by the news.
Some speculated, "Is Julia Land preparing to go back and take over the Bell Group?"
"Is she going to confront Maxwell Bell?"
Madame Bell had already received several calls that were both overt and covert, all inquiring why Julia was no longer managing Dale Group.
After hanging up the phone again, she turned to Celeste Lewis and complained, "What’s with these people? If they have questions, why not ask the person involved? Why come to me?"
"Besides, Arthur is managing Bell Clan very well, how could he possibly let her come back to manage the company!"
