The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 759

"I get it."

"When we get back from the trip, I'll set up a dinner for the three of us."

"I'll have to get him a nice gift too, to make up for missing his birthday."

The two kept chatting about Ethan and finalized some details for their trip.

Before long, the car pulled into the Celestial Community.

Callahan navigated smoothly into the underground garage. He glanced at Leilani, who was sitting calmly in the passenger seat, and remembered the financial news he had seen broadcast that afternoon.

He hesitated for a second before finally speaking, trying to keep his tone perfectly neutral.

"Did you catch the financial news this afternoon?"

"It seems the Sloan family... is in a bit of trouble."

She turned to look at him. "The Sloan Group?"

Didn't they just get two hundred million from the Langley Group? How were they already in trouble again?

"Yeah."

He flipped the turn signal and parked the car perfectly between the lines before explaining the situation.

"That Southgate International project they recently invested in went belly-up. The manager ran off with the funds, and now they're staring down a two-hundred-million-dollar deficit..."

He gave her a quick rundown of the family's latest catastrophe.

She listened in silence, her expression entirely unreadable.

He continued.

"Their financials have been terrible all year, and this isn't the first time they've made headlines for unpaid wages."

"Now, with the project manager vanishing and leaving behind this massive hole, they can't cover it. The workers aren't getting paid, and the protests are getting vicious."

"Hackett and Josiah are probably losing their minds trying to put out the fires."
