Dear Ex-wife, Marry Me novel Chapter 576

Day and night, a group of people stood firm outside the EverBest Group's building.

Some folks brought them food, and there were even RVs parked nearby to provide them with basic necessities.

Reporters were on the scene broadcasting live, and it seemed like the EverBest Group was in a tight spot.

If the EverBest Group tried to shoo these people away, the consequences would be pretty severe.

So they had no choice but to send a representative to negotiate. This implied that everything these people were saying was true, especially since they had evidence to back it up.

They've waited ten years; they’ve got to have solid evidence.

The housing contracts and third-party inspection reports they brought were all legally binding.

Faced with these hard facts, the EverBest Group had no choice but to compensate.

Meanwhile, the negative press about the EverBest Group on the internet was piling up.

This time, the EverBest Group crossed a line with ordinary folks.

If they didn't explode in silence, they'd perish in silence.

Carlene rushed to the Raymond Corporation; tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at Ian, holding a notebook in her hand.

"Ian, have you seen the news online? The EverBest Group's in some hot water."

Ian knew about it; the news was all over the place.

Holden was involved too, but he didn't tell Ian because he had promised Maja not to interfere in their affairs.

The EverBest Group caused quite a stir online today; it was a big deal.

Just as Carlene was about to continue, Ian's phone rang. It was Fitch.

"Ian, there is only a fifth of the draft paper left to scan. This one's a bit more complex and is going to take some time. But I made a new discovery: Eric's diary notebook is missing."

"My brother didn't keep a diary."

"True, but Eric had tons of notebooks for jotting down random data. This one was bought in the last month, and the color of the inner shell is different from his usual style. So I guess he might have given this notebook to someone he knew. The top brass have finished organizing all of Eric's belongings, and they've been tracking for years, but that notebook is nowhere to be found."

Ian hung his head, listening to Fitch's addition.

"You could ask Carlene if Eric had given her anything like a notebook."

"A notebook?"

Ian repeated the word, looking at her.

Carlene went pale. She forced a smile and said, "I'll admit I've been a bit selfish. I chose to hand over Eric's gift now. After all, he's gone; I don't want to stir up trouble with his belongings."

Currently, both Fitch and Ian suspected Eric had feelings for Carlene, and Carlene admitted it.

But since Eric had passed away and the only woman he'd been in contact with was Carlene, there was no way to verify her claim.

Carlene was now backed into a corner. She risked being treated harshly by Ian by fabricating the existence of a notebook.

"Ian, if you help the Shepard family through this crisis, I'll give you the notebook right away. It's the last thing Eric gave me."

"You go home first; I'll get in touch later."

Ian's tone was indifferent as he looked down at his files.

Carlene knew there might be a resolution to this matter. Her anxious heart finally settled down.
