The decisions for the company have been made.
Ariana planned to speak to 'Wheelchair' at her earliest convenience. Right now, the most pressing matter was the White Family's business. She needed to find time in the next few days to resign from her position.
As time whittled away, the baby's full-month celebration swiftly approached.
Given that he was the first great-grandson of the Stone family, Lucian's full-month celebration was grand. Almost all big names from the business world were invited.
Kiara and Jane naturally came along with Gilbert and his wife.
Being their own grandson, Gilbert and his wife were elated today. Kiara immediately spotted Ariana upon arrival and swiftly ran towards her. With a blushing face, she said, "Sister Ariana."
Laughing, Ariana turned to Kiara, saying helplessly, "Why are you running so fast?"
Kiara shook her head and asked with a grin, "Sister Ariana, where's the baby?"
Ariana answered, "He's with Grandma. Why? You seem quite happy today." Despite everything that happened, Ariana still treated Kiara as her younger sister. Some things weren't related to Kiara, and there was no need to take it out on her.
Stumbling on her words in response to Ariana's question, Kiara shyly replied, "I'm here to see you and the baby today. We agreed that I would frequently look after the baby once he was born! Sister Ariana, you haven't forgotten, have you?"
Ariana chuckled, "Of course not." But then, she changed the subject, saying: "However, I've been very busy recently and might not return often. If you want to see Lucian, you can visit me at my place."
Kiara was taken aback, "Is Sister Ariana so busy?" After saying this, she sullenly admitted that, indeed, Ariana must be busy. After all, she hadn't seen Ariana go home in ages. She had hoped to see the baby, but with Ariana gone so often lately, she could only make the most of the baby's full-month celebration.
Seeing Kiara's disappointed look, a hint of indifference passed through Ariana's eyes.
A moment of silence filled the air.
Kiara wanted to spend more time with Ariana since it had been such a long time since they last met. However, Kiara also understood the formality of the occasion. So, she chose her words carefully. She said, "Sister Ariana, there's been some turmoil in the White Family business lately. I heard about it by chance. Since you haven't returned to the company after giving birth, I wasn't sure if you were aware..."
Kiara had a soft spot for Ariana in her heart, so when she occasionally heard about this matter, she wanted to tell Ariana.
However, she wasn't sure if Ariana was aware of it...
After all, although Ariana was not in the White family, that didn't mean she was unaware of everything happening there. Kiara was also worried that if Ariana didn't know and she herself didn't say anything, something bad might happen. Therefore, she took this opportunity to ask Ariana. If Ariana knew, there would be no need to say anything. But if she didn't know, she would tell Ariana.
These words left Ariana somewhat taken aback.
She honestly didn't know about it. So, Ariana appeared slightly stunned after hearing about it. She furrowed her brows and asked, "What happened? What's wrong?";
Kiara obediently relayed everything she had accidentally overheard that day. She said, "It seems that there's a corporate spy in the company, and a few projects that should have been finalized have somehow gone awry. This is what Uncle was upset about, that's how I heard about it from Jane."
Upon hearing this, Ariana's brow furrowed even further, "A leak?"
Kiara nodded.
