The Heiress Who Took Revenge

Chapter 658 The Return Overseas

She had to find an opportunity to uncover Tyson’s leverage; there was no way she was going to waste a single second of her time on something as trivial as cooking. In the study, Tyson returned to his desk and immediately questioned Julio about Nolan’s recent movements. "Nolan seems to be making moves against our people," Julio reported. "Also, for some reason, Eliza returned overseas with the Sue family’s son early this morning. The word is that with Emilia’s death anniversary approaching, they are bringing her ashes back to be buried alongside the late Mr. Goldbert." "That is just a pretext," Tyson remarked. "Tristan wouldn't call Eliza back for something so simple. There must be another reason." Although Tyson had only met Tristan once, he could tell the man was far from ordinary. If it were truly just for an anniversary, there would be no need to summon Eliza back so urgently and alone. No one would buy such a story. "Keep a close eye on Nolan and Eliza. I want to know exactly what Tristan is up to." "The Sue family has been interfering in our business quite a bit lately," Julio added. "Halbert looks young, and we initially thought he would be easy to deceive, but he has managed to stall us for quite some time. Many of our distribution channels are blocked, and sales for the recent batches of medicine have not been great." Tyson’s brow furrowed. "None of the Sue siblings are easy to deal with, let alone Halbert, who is Tristan’s hand-picked successor. You need to be extra cautious with that boy. Halt our operations for now; do not let anyone discover what we are doing." Hearing that Tyson wanted to put everything on hold, Julio could not help but ask, "What about Cramer? The overseas side has been pushing to dump the remaining stock left behind by Wendy. There are still many people waiting for those anti-aging formulas. Besides, Cramer bought up all of Wendy’s inventory, and they have not cleared half of it yet." "That is his problem," Tyson said, his face devoid of emotion. "If he does not have the stomach for the job, he should not have taken it on." Tyson did not care if the people backing them grew angry; it was Cramer's own lack of capability. He would never allow himself or the Hayes family to be put at risk. "Understood. I will see to it immediately." Overseas. Eliza slept fitfully throughout the flight, waking only as they touched down.Ronaldo and Christian had arranged for a private corridor to be cleared at the airport. Christian chattered away the entire time. "Tristan was thrilled to hear you were coming back. He made me promise to get you home as quickly as possible. He has prepared so many gifts for you, and everyone has set up a new room for you, complete with jewelry and new clothes. You will have to see them all." It had been a while since Eliza had seen Ronaldo and Christian. She had worried she might feel awkward, but Christian did not give her a chance to get a word in edgewise. "Why are you so quiet?" Eliza noticed that Ronaldo, driving ahead, had not said a word. "It is nothing. I am just a bit tired," Ronaldo replied, rubbing the bridge of his nose. Noticing the dark circles under his eyes, Eliza felt a pang of concern. "Do not mind him; he has just been overwhelmed with work lately," Christian chimed in. "As you know, Tristan issued a final ultimatum to investigate the forces behind Saint Corp. Ronaldo has been flying between several cities over the past few days. He is exhausted. After all, he is not a young kid anymore. Once a man hits twenty-five, he might as well be sixty-five..." Christian shook his head with a sigh. Ronaldo shot a cold glare at Christian, who immediately shut his mouth. Eliza had not realized that while she was resting, her family had been tirelessly investigating Saint Corp on her behalf. "Is the power behind Saint Corp truly related to my mother’s death?" "Most likely," Ronaldo began, but Christian cut him off with a swat to the head. "Eliza just got back. Can you not bring up such a heavy topic right away?" Ronaldo fell silent. In truth, Eliza wanted to know exactly how her mother had died. Halbert saw the look in her eyes and spoke up. "You will find out everything once we get home. Tristan will tell you." "Okay," Eliza replied, nodding as she clutched the urn containing her mother’s ashes. Inside the Sue family. Upon hearing that Tristan was bringing Eliza back, Tracy had returned overseas two days early, bringing Zayden with her. Today, she had dressed up formally and made Zayden wear a suit. "You are about to see the woman you love. Are you not happy?"Facing Tracy’s question, Zayden’s face remained expressionless.
