Semua Bab The President's Darling: Bab 901 - Bab 910

The screech of the brakes echoed as the car came to a halt. The sudden jolt made Summer's stomach churn like a stormy sea. Despite the nausea, she steadied herself and asked, "What's going on? Aren't we supposed to be heading to the Committee of Prestigious Families voting session?""We're not going there now. We're taking you to the hospital," James replied firmly, his eyes already giving the driver a silent command. The driver immediately turned the steering wheel and stepped on the accelerator, redirecting the car toward the nearest hospital. Summer couldn't accept that. The vote for the Ritter family was too important—both for uncovering the truth and because James' vote as the Quigley family representative could determine the outcome. "James, you can't do this.""Summie, stop talking. Your health comes first. You look really unwell," James said with concern. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders, gently guiding her head to rest against his chest.Summer knew James meant

The unexpected twists left Summer's mind in a haze. What should have been a joyful day, marked by the discovery of her pregnancy, was marred by the worries about the Ritter family that she couldn't shake off. In fact, those worries had consumed her so much that she forgot to share her big news with James.Summer sat on the couch and decided to hear James out about what had happened at the Committee of Prestigious Families voting session that afternoon. When James arrived at the meeting, he saw Bradly, Zach, Keith, Kelly, and the others. They were all in the same room, but when James tried to talk to them, they remained silent. That was when it hit Summer that Bradly and Zach were under Keith's control. Later, Monica joined the conversation with James. During their exchange, he started to grasp the full extent of Keith's scheming. This realization led him to change his vote to support Monica, but even that wasn't enough to alter the outcome—Keith had been named the head of the Ri

This was a serious criminal matter, and if Zach decided to press charges, Kelly could face severe consequences, which included prison time.Summer felt helpless. What was Kelly thinking? How could she have made such a mistake?The more Summer thought about it, the more she realized that Keith's interest in Kelly was far from genuine. He must have made use of Kelly's position as the finance manager at Myers Corporation. This would make it easy for him to steal their business contracts."I'm sorry, Zach," Summer apologized sincerely. Kelly had gotten the job at Myers Corporation largely because of her recommendation. Hence, Summer felt partly responsible for Zach's losses.Zach quickly waved off her apology. "You don't need to apologize, Summer. No one could've predicted Kelly would do something like this. Besides, I should have been more vigilant. If I had been, this could have been avoided."Bradly clapped his hand and added, "Exactly. Zach didn't do a good job. He shouldn't be bl

The problem was that Summer couldn't locate the driver's family. After two days of searching, she had come up empty-handed.James had also tried to help with the investigation of York's death, but his time was limited. As the president of Quigley Group, his schedule was packed. With the recent upheaval over the head of the Ritter family, James was swamped with negotiations and new business arrangements.Monica reached out to Summer. They arranged to meet at a café near the Beaut Moon residential area early that morning.Monica arrived in a flowing dress, her demeanor subdued. It was clear that she was disheartened after losing the family head position."Why did you ask me out this time?" Summer asked."I know you've been investigating my father's death. I think we should work together because, as I've said before, I'm convinced my brother is responsible for my father's death," Monica stated firmly. Summer was unsure why Monica was so confident, as until now, Monica had no concre

"I considered it, but my brother wouldn't do that because it's too risky." Monica stated. She reasoned that since York had only recently died, any additional deaths within the Ritter family would make people suspect something was amiss.Moreover, there was no point in killing Monica as she no longer posed a threat to Keith. She could no longer contend for the position of family head. Given Keith's cautious nature, he was unlikely to act against her.Given these reasons, Monica could move around freely and secretly investigate her father's accident. After hearing Monica's perspective, Summer felt some degree of respect for her. She had initially thought of Monica as a spoilt young heiress. However, through their interactions, she realized that despite her youth, Monica was perceptive, strategic, and had a holistic understanding of the situation. Indeed, one should never underestimate those born into influential families."All right. Monica. I hope our cooperation will be successf
