Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 1299

"I don't know about that.” Cassey said, "But there's no substantial evidence in this matter, so it isn't considered a thorny problem to deal with yet. I'm sure that someone is deliberately targeting Grant Corporation. Also, Grant Corporation's branch in Hoffer Nation has stopped operating."

"Why?"

"Do you not read the news, Missy?" Cassey put on a speechless look. "I think you're completely cut off from the world after spending too long in a small town. Chaos broke out in Hoffer Nation two months ago and no one was able to stop it in such a short period of time, so it became practically impossible to make any money there. Go online and read about what exactly happened."

I was indeed unaware of this.

I had been busy handling the project the last few months and had no time to watch the news.

There was a knock on the door, and I turned and saw that it was Caleb.

He was carrying a briefcase clad in a gray suit. His hair was neatly groomed.

He greeted me and said to Cassey, "Honey, I have a lesson this afternoon and will come back a little late. I've booked the flight tickets to Salt City, and our bags are almost done packing. Check and see if I left anything behind later, will you?"

Carrying Pudding in her arms, Cassey got up and walked up to him. "There's no need to check. I believe in your ability to do your job well, honey. Let me walk you

downstairs."

The two walked downstairs, and their voices gradually vanished.

I sat in front of the dresser, thinking back to what Cassey had just said.

I cleaned up my room and went downstairs.

Seeing me looking around, Petra helplessly smiled. "He's gone. I'm surprised he waited for you for so long even though he's super busy."

I lowered my head, not knowing what to say.

Sensing that Grayson was not around, I subconsciously asked, "Dad went out?"

My mind was full of what Cassey had just said, so I asked the question without thinking too much.

Petra's eyes welled up with tears at once. She wore a surprised and delighted look on her face.
