Chapter 192
Chapter 192 If this had been three years ago .
Yasir would have laughed at the thought of Hayden doing something so cheesy in secret .
But now , all Yasir could do was sigh softly and say , The month Yvonne had her accident , the whole of Elysiumville was buzzing that you were about to remarry .
Yet , three years later , youre still refusing to get married or even date .
You dont even have a woman by your side He paused , then glanced up at Hayden .
Does Yvonne know youve been celibate for him ? What had started as a conversation filled with sadness suddenly shifted into something far more teasing .
Hayden shot him a cold , threatening look , his eyes narrowing in warning .
You came here just to tell me this ? Hayden asked .
Of course not .
Yasir immediately became serious again , pulling out a chair to sit .
Do you know about a company that recently arrived from abroad ? Its called Jethive Group .
Are you bored lately ? Hayden raised an eyebrow , eyeing him .
You seem to know every company coming to Elysiumville No , this ones different .
Jethive Group is mysterious .
Ive asked around , and from what I gathered , they started abroad and in just three years have expanded across all of Microsunlands commercial sectors .
I checked with some of my contacts overseas , and they said its not something to overlook , Yasir said , his voice tense with urgency .
They even acquired Hogcast Construction Hogcast Construction had previously partnered with the Parker Group .
It was a reputable company , one of the top players in Elysiumville If they were acquiring a small company , that would be one thing , but swallowing up Hogcast ? That had shaken the business community .
Oh ? Haw Hayden raised an eyebrow , interest flickering in his gaze .
How much do you know about Jethive Group ? Not much Yasir stood up, suddenly animated .
Thats the thing its hard to figure out .
You know how todays businessmen are all about showing off their skills , flaunting their power .
But Jethive ? Theyre the total opposite .
Ive asked around a lot , and all I could find out is that the CEO is a woman .
How old is she ? What does she look like ? No one knows anything .
Its like a mystery .
Hayden set the file he was holding down , leaned back in his chair , and squinted thoughtfully .
You couldnt even find out anything ? The Gibson familys information network wasnt as vast as the Parker familys , but it was no slouch either .
If even Yasir , with his resources , couldnt get any intel , it meant Jethive Group was truly something special .
Exactly , Yasir nodded , still frowning .
I have no idea whos behind it .
Hayden smiled faintly , a cold , calculating glint in his eyes .
If you want to find out , why not have her meet us ? Yasir blinked , trying to process the idea .
How do we get her to meet us ? Next week , the Wavepeak Stadium land in the economic development zone is up for auction .
All the major companies are eyeing it .
Since Jethive Group just came to Elysiumville , theyll definitely want to stake their claim on this prize , Hayden said with a knowing smirk .
The moment the words left Haydens mouth , Yasirs eyes lit up .
Chapter 192 Of course ! Jethive Group is so powerful , theyd definitely want a piece of that Well finally meet this mysterious woman ! Yasir sand anddenly eager to see who this clusive CEO was This should be interesting With that problem solveil .
Yasirs mood lightened considerably Got time this afternoon ? Want to go skiing ? Yasir suggested , the idea of hitting the slopes lifting his spirits .
Its too much of a hassle Haydens cold response was final .
Yasir nearly choked on his own words .
He clenched his teeth for a moment before letting out a resigned sigh Alright , alright .
If youre too busy , 171 just take a half day off for my girlfriend .
Shes been working herself to the bone lately , getting thinner by the day .
Maybe you could do something about her boss ? Yasir said .
She can take her own leave , cant she ? Hayden replied , his voice colder .
Yasir , sensing the tension , quickly clarified .
Dont get me wrong .
Im not trying to interfere with your companys business .
But her boss , Zachary , hes a real problem .
Favoritism , abuse of power .
Its starting to bleed into the company .
If you dont address it , it could cause issties .
The name Zachary made Haydens expression darken .
Yasir shivered , almost physically feeling the change in atmosphere .
Zacharys been living pretty well these past few years , Hayden said , his voice chilling When are you going to deal with him ? Yasir asked , genuinely curious .
He had expected Hayden to have gotten rid of Zachary by now , but nothing had happened .
It didnt sit right with him .
Not yet .
Hayden said curtly , not willing to elaborate .
Guess Ill never understand whats going on in your head , Yasir muttered , a little annoyed .
He waved his hand and turned to leave .
Tll leave you to it .
After Yasir left , Haydens gaze returned to the photo frame on his desk.
In it .
Yvonnes smiling face seemed to mock him , reminding him of everything he had lost .
Her smile was always so pure , so radiant .
How had he never noticed that before ? It wasnt until he had lost her completely that he realized , somewhere along the way , Yvonne had become a part of him a part he could never let go of .
Lost in thought , he rose , pulling on his heavy coat .
Today was the anniversary of Yvonnes mothers death .
He needed to go visit her grave .
Outside the city , at the cemetery , the mountain was high , the air cold , and the sky was overcast , Snowflakes began to fall , painting the world in white .
Yvonne stood before Sienna Stouts grave .
Yvonne , your mother loved daisies , huh ? Dylan said , bending down to place a bouquet of daisies on the grave .
He carefully adjusted the flowers , making sure they were just right .
Yvonne looked at the flowers with a soft , tender gaze .
Yes .
Mom always said daisies symbolize purity and peace .
And hidden love .
2/1 1:11 PM & .
Chapter 192 I like them too , Dylan said , standing up and smiling at the photo on the gravestone , Sienna , Im Dylan .
Dont worry , Yvonnes been eating well .
Shes recovered from childbirth , and she runs three miles every day .
Shes practically a superwoman now , Yvonne couldnt help but laugh at his words .
What superwoman only runs three miles ? Youre going to get me laughed at .
Its impressive , alright ? Dylan grinned , then became serious .
I dont care what anyone says , to me , youre the best at everything .
If she didnt know better , Yvonne would have thought he was trying to flatter her into doing something Mom , dont listen to him .
Your daughter hasnt been a good one .
Ive been abroad for three years and just now come back to see you .
Your little grandson has a cold right now , but Ill bring him to visit you next time .
As she spoke , her voice trembled , betraying the emotions she had kept hidden .
It had been three years , and she was finally back in Elysiumville .
