The Queen They Buried (by Wynter Vans) novel Chapter 619

Chapter 619

Pamela pouted, “Don’t think I don’t know–he just got there and already got himself into trouble for helping your sister’s daughter. Now he’s ended up with a warning.

“Seriously, you couldn’t even smooth over such a small issue? Now he has to write a self–criticism report?”

“You think Rithol City is just like home?” he went on. “He messed with someone he shouldn’t have. Taking a small hit isn’t the end of the world.” After all, he’d warned Oliver before he left–Rithol City was crawling with powerful families, and he needed to be careful. That reminded Jasper of what Oliver had just said on the phone–he wanted Jasper to find an excuse to bring him back for a while. And judging from his tone, it was clear that it had something to do with Aubree coming to Drebay City to invest.

“Your son wants me to assign him some task so he can come back for a bit,” Jasper said.

Pamela looked confused, and she probed, “He’s doing just fine in Rithol City. What’s he suddenly coming back for?”

She thought, ‘Can’t he just ask for some time off?‘

After a moment, she added, “If you ask me, it probably has something to do with Aubree.”

Jasper narrowed his eyes but said nothing, his expression shifting subtly,

He knew plenty about Aubree. Ever since she left the Wilson family two years ago, she had started to make a name for herself. Back when she was with them, she was just the neglected girl they brought back–now, she was anything but ordinary.

A business prodigy with a sharp mind, Aubree had proven herself time and again over the past two years.

Just look at how she’d managed to get Emery locked up for three years and forced Trevor out of the game. That level of cunning and shrewdness wasn’t something you saw every day.

She was not someone to underestimate. And now Oliver had his eyes glued to her every move. Jasper had a sinking feeling–this trip to Drebay City was

bound to bring trouble for the Lawson family.

Meanwhile, the Wilson family quickly caught wind of Aubree’s plans to invest and build in the Drebay City region.

When Ronald received the news, he scrambled to contact his contacts to verify it. Once it was confirmed, a look of shock spread across his face.

He wondered, ‘Has my daughter moved beyond small–time business ventures?

‘Is she seriously stepping into cutting–edge fields like new energy chips now?

‘Even Bryan, our eldest, was only managing the family’s more conventional businesses. I still hold a tight grip on the Wilson family’s deeper, more influential industries–the high–level ventures tied to significant connections and government projects.

‘Aubree’s growth has been so rapid!‘

For the first time, a wave of unease washed over/Ronald. No matter what she’d done before, he had never taken her seriously. Sure, she’d pulled off a few small victories, but they were nothing more than minor setbacks–never anything that could truly threaten the Wilson Group’s core interests.

He immediately made calls to ask for details/

The person on the other end reported, “It’s already been finalised. The Provincial Development and Reform Commission has issued a notice, making it clear they’re placing great importance on Aubree’s visit to Drebay City. The Commerce Committee has already arranged her airport reception.
