Chapter 324
Mike and the children had their ears glued to the door of the master bedroom and were eavesdropping
Avery’s loud roar earlier lured them over.
Moments later, the door opened without warning.
Mike almost fell into Avery’s embrace.
Avery stared at them in bewilderment and said, “What are you guys doing?”
“Who were you fighting with, Mommy?” Layla asked as she lifted her head with innocent eyes filled with curiosity. “Was it Dirtbag Dad?”
“Your mother turns a little feral in front of him and her enemies,” Mike teased. “Otherwise, she’s a perfect lady.”
“Oh, so Dirtbag Dad’s Mommy’s enemy.”
Layla’s comprehensive skills were on point.
Avery felt a throbbing pain in her temples.
She walked out of her room and moved downstairs.
“There’s dinner for you in the kitchen, Avery!” Mike called out to her slender back.
“Okay.”
“I’ll help the kids wash up. Let’s talk after you eat,” Mike continued.
With one hand on the banister, Avery turned her head and asked in confusion, “What’s there to talk about? Why can’t you just say it now?”
“Have you forgotten what I told you in the afternoon?” Mike said in frustration. “Go and eat. I’ ll come to you later.”
Avery tried her best to recall their earlier conversation, but she did not have a clue.
Things have been chaotic in the past couple of days.
On top of that, her sleeping patterns were messed up. Her spirit was drained and her memory was deteriorating
Avery had a couple of bites of food to eat then made her way back upstairs.
When Mike saw her come up, he asked in shock, “Are you done with dinner already?”
Avery leaned against the door frame of the children’s bedroom, then asked, “What did you want to talk about? Stop being so mysterious.”
Hayden shoved Mike towards the door and said, “I’ll take care of Layla.”
Mike agreed, then grabbed onto Avery’s arm and pulled her downstairs.
“I was worried about disturbing your rest,” Mike said bitterly. “It’s about work. It’s nothing serious. It’s just that there were some issues with our product.”
Avery raised her brows and asked, “What kind of issues?”
“Our business partners tricked us. Didn’t we order high-end lenses from Nycra? They ended up giving us one of their mid-range products.”
“That’s unacceptable! How did this get past quality assurance?”
“Things were hectic towards the end of the year. Our manager didn’t know much about these things either, so something like this happened,” Mike said as he opened a video on his phone and showed it to Avery.
There were over two millions views on the video.
Master Up was the most popular influencer in the field of drones.
The title on the video was especially shocking.
“The Most Awesome Review in History!: Let’s see how Alpha Technologies’ subsidiary, Tate Industries, is cheating our citizens!”
The video described the products in detail, including both its pros and cons.
Master Up even went through the trouble of buying a drone that was produced by Alpha
Technologies and compared it with Tate Industries’ Storm Series drone..
The conclusion was that, despite owning both companies, Avery Tate’s products abroad were of better quality and more cost-effective!
