Very few people knew that Jaden Hall lived in the Golden Mansion even Michael had searched for a long time without finding any trace.
So how did Jessica find out so easily?
As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Recalling the first time she met Jaden was a scene Jessica herself found incredible.
“Speaking of which, my meeting with Jaden was purely by chance at a business banquet, and Jaden is my friend’s… boyfriend,” said Jessica. “So I think Jaden did it on purpose.”
“That makes sense,” said Indya, spreading his hands.
“Since you said Jaden is a smart person, naturally he would find a way to return to the Hall family by himself. Relying on his so- called uncle and aunt is unlikely, Michael’s parents are his brother and sister, so that’s even less likely. He can only rely on herself.”
Looking at it this way, Jaden’s life might have been tougher.
Shannon tidied the things on the table and had already walked over to Jessica, ready to have her sign the meeting conclusions.
She stopped behind Jessica curiously and asked, “You never mentioned this person before?”
Jessica lowered her head and signed the name smoothly and confidently.
“That’s because he’s the boyfriend of the CEO of Hurricane Media who we are about to work with, Collin Phillips.”
Everyone was rendered speechless.
Even Chris, sitting next to Jessica, was utterly incredulous.
He had just heard Collin’s name for the first time, only knowing he was Jessica’s childhood friend, and maybe had even attended their wedding.
And now, suddenly, Jaden’s… boyfriend?
That meant he was the boyfriend of the legitimate heir of the Hall family
This didn’t seem right.
Jessica rubbed her forehead with a smile. “Exactly. Let’s set aside their relationship for now. The important thing is that as long
as Jaden exists, no matter how much Michael and Luke fight, neither will become the legitimate heir.”
So Jaden was their biggest threat.
And right now, this threat had actually become their ally?
This world was really crazy.
Shannon stood behind Jessica holding the documents, stunned for long while until Indya spoke,
“So now you want to help Jaden take back the Hall family? That… quite a big move, isn’t it?”
“The Hall family needs someone else to take charge.” Jessica twited the ring on her finger calmly, looking confident.
“All the crises we face now, and the accident back then, all came from the current Hall family. The simplest way to change the situation and find the truth…”
Was to have someone else run the family.
This must have been Jessica’s plan all along, just waiting for Collin to return before starting to deploy.

“Hurricane Media has already bought the most prosperous district in the city, the entire building belongs to them and is being decorated. It’s estimated to finish after the New Year. Once Hurricane Media returns to Impelia, every company in the city will feel threatened.”
“Hurricane Media is still focused in culture and entertainment. They won’t be involved in traditional industry chains, so they’re not much of a threat to us. But the Hall family fits perfectly into their plans, and with their biggest opponent FN becoming an ally, the timing of Hurricane Media’s return is just right.”
After the meeting, everyone left, and Jessica sat in her chair waiting for Chris to ask questions.
“Was it really just a coincidence?” Chris held Jessica’s hand, his tone teasing with a faint smile.
“You really just happened to meet Jaden? Wasn’t he sent abroad? And… given his status, returning to the country would surely have alarmed the Hall family. You wouldn’t be able to meet up.”
