Chapter 75 Cheating

Tess entered the office and shook Jordan’s hand. “Hey, Mr. Jordan, you’re back!‘

“Long time no see.” Jordan nodded courteously.

“Aunt Tess, what brought you here?” Maia was surprised that she had come.

Tess feigned anger. “Am I not welcome?”

Maia chucked. “Of course, you’re welcome here anytime.”

She then signed the documents and returned them to Jordan. “Thanks, Jordan. I’ll tell Nigel to

handle the lawsuit.”

Jordan nodded. “He’s the best man for the job. I trust him.”

Taking the documents, he smiled and said, “I’ll leave you two alone then.

After Jordan left, Tess sat on the sofa and asked, “Who are you suing, Maia? It’s better to take it easy

since you just took over the company.”

Maia shook her head. “Jordan found out that Theo had been taking money from the company.”

““He’s just like his dad,” Tess sighed. “I heard many big corporations wanted to hire Jordan, but he

turned them all down. You’ve done a great job, Maia! Your mom would be proud of you.

She gave her niece a thumbs–up.

Shaking her head, Maia said truthfully, “Jordan only came back because he missed working here.

Besides, he also felt that there was something fishy about Mom’s death and wanted to help me get to

the bottom of it.”

Holding up a cup of tea, Tess was stunned. “What did you say? There’s something fishy about Rosa’s

death. Didn’t the investigation report state that she killed herself due to depression?”

Tess‘ eyes

welled up with tears.

“I didn’t say much over dinner the other day because Errol was around, and I had to rush to locate

Jordan. I got my hands on mom’s medical records for several years, and she wasn’t suffering from

depression or any kind of mental issues. Even if she did kill herself, it wasn’t because of depression.

Jordan said mom was in a good mood that day and had no reason to kill herself.”

The cup in Tess’s hand shattered on the floor.

“Aunt Tess, are you all right? Did you get burned?” Maia quickly went over to check her hand.

Tess shook her head and grabbed Maia’s arms instead. “If your mom wasn’t suffering from

depression… why did she jump off a building?”

Maia shook her head. “We don’t know yet, but I’ve asked the IT department to recover the surveillance

footage from two years ago. My mom had jumped from the rooftop of this building, so we need to

obtain it to find clues.”

Fighting back her tears, Tess said emotionally, “Yes, yes, we have to find out what happened and catch

whoever did this to Rosa!”

“We will, Aunt Tess.” Maia was determined to bring the culprit to justice.

Tess wiped tears from her face. “I’m sure you can do it. Let’s not talk about this anymore. I can’t

breathe knowing that your mom might be murdered, you know.”

Changing the subject, she said, “Anyway, I’m here to tell you something important.”

“What is it?”

“Errol has been secretly dating Celia Trivett, the brand ambassador for Pinot Nuage.”

Taken aback for a moment, Maia chuckled. “Really? Errol has a girlfriend?”

This was the best news she had heard for a while. She always worried Errol might have trouble finding

a girlfriend due to his disability.

“Yeah, he made her his girlfriend three months after she took the job. I guess he’s quite a charmer,

huh?” Tess beamed with joy.

Maia winked. “We have good genes, don’t we?”

Tess laughed. “Of course we do.”

“Anyway, Celia’s contract is about to expire, so Errol asked her about becoming an artist for Starlight

Entertainment. I think it’s a great idea.

“Firstly, with you around, no one will take advantage of her. Secondly, you can ensure she won’t cheat

on your brother. You know how things are in the entertainment world.”

Maia asked, “Why would you say such a–thing?”

Tess patted Maia’s hand and said, “We must take precautions, all right? You never know.”

Maia palmed her forehead, speechless.

Tess added, “Anyway, now that you’ve terminated Bruno’s contract, you need new blood like Celia.

She’s one of the most popular actresses in our country, and she starred in a romance drama with

Aiken, which is so sweet!”

Maia was surprised. “You know all of this?”
