Mia's mind started whirling, "People aren't stupid. Those earning money through unsavory means will definitely try to bring Chad down and replace him with one of their own, so they can continue their illegal activities.
Big Bro had vouched for Chad, and the investigators had left. But at the last minute, someone exposed Molly's identity, linking her closely with Chad and Big Bro.
Even if the higher-ups decided to punish someone, it should be Kendrick. After all, Chad was just a kid sixteen years ago. What's he got to do with it? So the real target is Chad. Everyone else is just cannon fodder.
If Chad is eliminated this time, they'll push one of their own into this crucial position, and the dirty money will keep flowing.
After all, money is what everyone is after."
Andre asked her, "Mia, did you deduce all this just from considering their personal interests?"
Mia shook her head, "Not entirely. Behavioral analysis, remember? Dad taught me and Cooper."
Andre looked at his petite wife, whose brain was working overtime.
Today, after hearing her words, he realized he had underestimated her.
Many times, she had not let him down and had always been there to help him out.
Andre wanted to compliment her, but he was afraid that Mia would become even prouder than a peacock and give him a hard time.
"So you guys have narrowed it down to the competitors and their backers?"
Mia nodded, "Honey, do you think my analysis makes sense?"
Andre chuckled. Her analysis was not only logical but also echoed his own thoughts.
"What's your next move after your discussion?"
In any case, her husband was her closest confidant, and Mia didn't hide anything from him. She believed that letting him know was much better than leaving him in constant worry, thinking she was going out to fight.
"We've divided the tasks. I come up with the ideas, Molly gathers information, and Leo executes."
Andre laughed at this little team, "You guys have a clear division of labor." He was actually looking forward to his wife's ingenious plans.
"I'm pregnant. I can only contribute ideas. I can't go out and gather information.
Molly is close to Chad. Her dad would definitely discuss the matter with her brother at home, so she's in the best position to gather information. Plus, Molly has a job now, so she can't move around freely.
Leo can drive and knows a lot of people. He's the most resourceful, so he's the best person to execute the plan."
Mia utilized each of their strengths to the fullest. "Here's what I'm thinking…"
That night, Mia and her husband video-chatted for two hours, discussing things at length.
The Byrne family.
Mia watched as her father called Chad into the study, and she quietly followed.
Leo couldn't sleep that night, so he started researching the Mastin family's past on his computer.
After her video chat with her husband, Mia, who had generated the ideas, gave her phone several kisses and then went to bed.
Before going to bed, she engaged in a little heart-to-heart with her child.
"Kick mommy, why aren't you moving?"
The next day,
Leo ate breakfast early and went out.
Naomi complained about her son in the living room, "He's on vacation but doesn't help at the company. Instead, he goes out playing games. When Andre comes back, he needs to discipline him."
Mia responded, "Naomi, just let Leo be. He's grown up. Andre can only guide him, not control him like before. Too much control can make a child weak."
