Chapter 904 Is There Someone Else At The Back?

“If you have some time, find out what her entire plan is. Otherwise, it won’t be good for us if she keeps us uninformed.” “I know. I tried asking her, but she told me not to pry on things I shouldn’t know. Knowing too much could lead to trouble.” Chiara felt increasingly frustrated as Ivanka continued to cause trouble and having to deal with the strong-tempered backer. Lyla took a moment to think before suggesting, “Let’s be flexible for now. But we shouldn’t rely solely on her instructions. We should also take the initiative and act independently.” Chiara pursed her lips and did not want to say anything anymore. It was Lyla’s birthday, after all. It was better to leave things unsaid. ... Another three days passed. It was nearing the end of afternoon work hours when Ivanka got a call from Suki. “Iv, you free after work?” “What’s up, Suki?” Ivanka knew that Suki would not directly contact her unless it was urgent and to avoid wasting her time unnecessarily. “I’ve met most of those doctors. I think there’s one you should meet and ask in person.” Ivanka remained calm as she agreed immediately, “Alright, when?” “Let’s meet at Barkworth’s Group’s entrance. We’re heading there now.” “Okay.” Ivanka hung up and left her office as soon as she clocked out. Michael and Evan were walking outside at that time. Michael caught sight of Ivanka and instinctively focused on her. He watched her as she got into the backseat of a Porsche. Evan noticed that as well. He said softly, “Umm, I think that’s Suki’s car.” Michael pursed his lips and paused momentarily before saying calmly, “Is there someone else at the back?” Evan was stunned. Michael truly had keen eyesight; he could see someone else in the backseat even from afar. Evan also glimpsed the figure in the backseat of the Porsche. He could vaguely make out that figure to be a man. After a pause, he said, “Perhaps that person is seeking Ms. Ivanka’s help with a lawsuit?” When he noticed Michael still being quiet, he quickly added, “That’s probably it.” Michael then turned to leave without another word. He shot Evan a glance. Evan quickly understood that Michael wanted him to investigate the person Ivanka had met that day. Despite Michael’s obvious concern for her, his consistent pretense of indifference sometimes left Evan feeling helpless at times. Meanwhile, inside the car, Suki did not drive off. Instead, she sat in the driver’s seat while Ivanka and Samson sat in the back. Ivanka held a list of herbs in her hand. Samson appeared composed as he glanced at Ivanka before speaking softly, “That’s pretty much what happened back then. Mr. Fernando mostly requested for supplement-like herbs.” Ivanka scoffed, “Is that all? Nothing else?” He immediately nodded. “Yes, that’s right.” Doctors generally remembered recent incidents quite clearly. Moreover, Suki brought Samson over because of his prior contact with Theodore. Given Theodore’s status, it was natural that he would remember what happened vividly.
