The three adults were still sitting inside the room and they were discussing how to integrate Spring in Carole Primal's life. After a few exchanges, Leo asked, "Will nobody concern themselves about how she has been missing for the past few days?" Anastasia shook her head and said, "If you can get her to say that she was just in seclusion to relax, none would inquire much, would they?" Leo nodded, and said, "I will have that arranged. So, Hector Marlin, what about him? From what I know, he is a well reputed noble in the Stag nation." The lady waved her hand and said, "I will settle that right now." She picked up her phone and dialed a number. The call was connected, and a calm voice sounded from the other side, "Marlin Estate." The lady said, "Susan, may I talk to my elder brother, please." The person replied, "I will inform, His Grace right away. Please hold on." Leo raised his eyebrow and then a few minutes later, a matured voice sounded from the other side, "Hello, Anna." Anastasia said, "Good evening, Brother." "Good evening, since you are calling me, it must be important." The old lady nodded and said, "Can you issue the decree to dissolve my matrimonial alliance with Hector? I am no longer a noble, I gave up my title, but the matrimony is still recognized by the family. Remove him and his spawns from the family ledger, only Snow shall be there." The man on the other side, asked, "Why so sudden?" He questioned but his voice was stable. Anastasia replied, "You know very well why. The hound dared to look at my child with bad gazes. I agree that it was a mistake on my side, but regardless, Snow carries the blood of the Marlin family. Some outsider shouldn't have been allowed to step in and dishonor her." The old man took a deep breath and said, "Fine, they have served their purpose already, however, it will take six months, you are aware of the procedure better than the rest." Anastasia nodded and said, "I am, it would take six months to officiate the absolvement but you can take away his privileges right away. I wish to see him suffer for what he did." The man on the other side thought and replied, "I will get that done within twenty four hours. Would that be fine?" Anastasia nodded and said, "Tell mother, I will find some time to visit her at the coming event." The man hummed and said, "It's her birthday and not an event. I will prepare the wine you like." The lady nodded and said, "See you soon, Your Grace." The man replied, "Good night, Anna." The call was disconnected and Anastasia said, "Earlier, when I was about to give up the Noble life, Hector had come to find me, he requested that I give him a month before dissolving the marriage, after all, I always had the intention to do so. When I found that he sent Trevor after you guys, that was the perfect chance." The two young people nodded, and Leo picked up his phone as he discussed a few things about how to approach the investment project. … Meanwhile, Lily put her hands behind her back and walked through the office premise with her chin raised slightly higher. She was wearing a black jumpsuit paired with white shoes which matched a white belt across her waist. She looked very cute in the attire, and her hair swayed slightly as she walked. Many girls from the marketing department saw her and came to greet her. The little girl used her skills and began to ask them questions about work and atmosphere. She said, "Big sisters, if you have any trouble, I will ask my Baba to solve it, but you all should work well and strive to gain a higher standing." Her words seemed to be honey to these ants, they all were perked up and promised her that they would work hard. The company had been treating them nicely and they were given nice benefits as well, so how could they not work well? After finishing her round of candy collection, Lily came back to Leo's office and found that the door was locked, she knocked and waited for Snow to open the door and got in the office, still with her hands behind her back. Searᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Leo looked at her and asked with a smile, "So, Young Miss Lily, do you have any suggestions? How can we make the office a better place?" Lily looked at her father and tapped her feet on the ground as she said, "You can add a few cats so that the employees can pat them and feel calm. Work stress can bring wrinkles." Leo raised his brows and asked, "Who told you that?" The little girl replied, "I asked the same question to the ladies in the marketing department. They told me they are stressed about a lot of things. A cat or a dog would be nice. Also, I noticed some of them have tiny plants on their desks, maybe give them each a plant to care for, that would help them feel better." Leo nodded and said, "I have taken your suggestion and will discuss it with people over the next weekly meeting." Snow checked her watch and then said, "Leo, I will take mother and Lily for some shopping." Leo nodded and said, "Go ahead, I have a few things to deal with." Then he escorted the trio down stairs and came back to his office. Just when he sat down on the chair, his phone rang. It was Percie, she said, "Sir, I just found that the Seaman Malls are asking for a higher profit from sales to allow our Kiosks inside." Leo frowned and then the scene from the ceramic exhibition flashed before his eyes, he mumbled, "Jamal Kastur, that greedy pig." Percie Hibiscal asked, "What did you say, Sir?" Leo shook his head and said, "Nothing, well, tell our Kiosks to move out of there decisively, I am not giving that bastard a single penny. On the contrary, since he wants to earn from our efforts, I will make sure he coughs up a bit of his own." Percie Hibiscal asked, "Sir, what do you have in mind?" The young man replied, "It is simple…"
