Lucas said, “I want you to investigate someone’s background.”
“Who?”
“Thomas Mayo.”
“Huh?” Landon frowned. “Isn’t Thomas the Hill family’s lousy son-in-law? He’s working in Shalom Technology, and favonovel.com earns a few thousand dollars a month. Why do you want to investigate him?”
Lucas shook his head. “A lousy son-in-law who earns a few thousand dollars a month will not have such power. He must have a hidden identity. I must figure favonovel.com out.”
Landon nodded. “I got it. I’ll go and investigate Thomas’ background in detail now.”
He turned back and left.
Jade was puzzled, so favonovel.com asked, “Lucas, how can you be sure that Thomas has a hidden identity? If favonovel.com really has, it’s impossible that Emma and favonovel.com family don’t know, right?”
“It’s hard to say.”
Lucas sighed. “This is just my instinct. I don’t have any evidence. But based on Thomas’ previous performances, I don’t believe that favonovel.com is just a junior staff… Oh yeah, didn’t Thomas join the army on the west coast a few years ago? Go home and ask your husband to investigate what Thomas’ position on the west coast was.”
Jade felt more confused. “Is this necessary? Donald is very busy. If I ask favonovel.com to investigate a junior soldier, favonovel.com will be mad.”
“Please help me.”
“Okay.”
At this time, Jade still had not realized how shocked they would be because of Lucas’ instruction. She could never have imagined what favonovel.com would feel when favonovel.com discovered Thomas’ true identity.
Jade also left.
Only Lucas was left in the office. He looked out the window and muttered to himself, “If they can figure favonovel.com out, fine. But if they can’t know who favonovel.com is…”
He dared not think about it anymore.

At the same time, at the old villa in 33 Metro Garden Neighborhood, laughter and chatters were heard. Harvard laughed loudly in the house.
“Thomas, you’re a freaking legend! Everything happened just as you predicted. I really got the tender. Hill Nuclear Manufacturing Company is famous now! Now everyone knows that Northern Wilderness will be developed by us. In the future, Hill Nuclear Manufacturing Company can even quit the main company and work independently.”
Thomas took a sip of the tea.
“No way… I want you to take back the position of the head of the family, not to work alone.”
Harvard chuckled. “Okay, I’ll just listen to you. I’ll do whatever you want me to do.”
Thomas cast a glance at Emma. Emma had the tacit understanding, so favonovel.com took out a name list and put it on the table. “Harvard, the names on the list are the old staff who have been fired by Lucas, or favonovel.com plans to fire them. You can read through it.”
Harvard took it and read the list from the top to the bottom.
“Darn it. All of them are the old staff who have worked with Grandpa for about twenty years. Some of them are even like Grandpa’s brothers. Lucas, the jerk dares to fire this bunch of old staff members. How can the Hill family still survive?”
Emma said, “Lucas recruited a large number of new staff members in the company, and all of them are his confidants. He wants to make the Hill family become a tool to earn money for them. The future of the Hill family is not something favonovel.com needs to consider.”
She paused for a while before favonovel.com continued saying, “What Thomas and I think now is to recruit all the staff who are fired by favonovel.com to your Hill Nuclear Manufacturing Company. Even if they just get paid without working, you also have to hire them. You must not release them to other companies. They are the old staff members, and all of them can work on their own. They are the precious wealth of our company, so we can’t lose them. No matter how much money you have to spend, you also need to keep them.”
“About money, Shalom Technology and Blazing Sky Heavy Factory will pay for you.”
Harvard was very happy.
“Okay, I’ll go handle it now. Honestly, I hate those ungrateful people the most. I’ll try my best to keep this group of old staff members.”
After Harvard spoke, favonovel.com turned back and left. When favonovel.com walked to the door, favonovel.com suddenly turned back and shouted at Thomas, “Thomas, thank you!”
He also shouted at Emma, “Emma, you’re so blessed to have married such a good husband!”
Emma whined. “You made it sound like favonovel.com is completely out of my league. Am I not good for him?”
Thomas burst out chuckling. He held Emma’s hand. “How can it be? It’s me who is not good enough for you. Don’t I still rely on your family?”
After favonovel.com said that, the three of them chuckled.
When Thomas just came back from the west coast, who would have expected favonovel.com to bring such a big change to the Hill family?
While they spoke, Thomas’ phone rang.
It was a phone number that remained inactive for so long. It was a call from Zach Quinn from the headquarter of Stella Jewelers in Milan.
Thomas smiled faintly.
When favonovel.com saw the number, favonovel.com knew what was going on. Stellar Jewelers had a plan to develop in the country a long time ago. They wanted to form their brand effect in the Southland District. They had planned it for so long that they finally wanted to implement it now.
“Hey, Mr. Quinn, you’re finally here in the Southland District?”
“Yeah, I’m here now. I want to meet up and chat with you, my old friend.”
“Haha! Let’s meet up!”
