?Chapter 683:


    Natalie, overwhelmed with relief, burst into tears.


    “Thank you, Mom!”


    As she continued to wipe her eyes, Elyse subtly slipped her daughter’s phone into her own bag.


    Elyse stepped away to use the restroom, where she quickly sent a message to the doctor who was courting Natalie.


    “Linden, once Cedric Phillips is gone, I’ll be with you.”


    His reply came almost instantly, as if he had been waiting for her to reach out.


    “Are you serious?”


    Elyse quickly typed back,


    “Of course.”


    Linden responded,


    “It’s a deal.”


    He then added,


    “Natalie, I’ll take care of this as soon as possible, and then you’ll be mine. I can’t wait to start a perfect life with you.”


    Before leaving, Elyse erased the messages and added Linden under a new ount.


    “To avoid any problemster, use this backup ount to get in touch with me from now on.”


    He answered quickly,


    ???è?? ￠?ΔT?εЯ? ?η ?a?иoν???.???


    “Got it.”


    A momentter, Linden messaged,


    “Can I get a little reward for this? After all, I’m doing something risky for you.”


    Elyse felt a wave of disgust but still took a provocative photo of her leg and sent it.


    His eager response came almost instantly.


    “That’s stunning. I can’t wait for all the days we’ll share together.”


    The thought of him alone made Elyse’s stomach turn. She had met him before — a peculiar, disheveled man who always carried the smell of old, damp clothes.


    But in order to manipte him, Elyse forced herself to push aside her disgust and texted,


    “Me too.”


    Almost instantly, he replied with an inappropriate photo of his own.


    Just at that moment, Natalie stepped in and asked,


    “Mom, have you seen my phone?”


    Startled, Elyse swiftly tucked her phone away, returned Natalie’s phone to her, and, with a cool, collected air, she walked out of the restroom.


    Dani’s reputation in business was truly well-earned.


    The day after the press conference, Phillips Group’s stock skyrocketed, surpassing its previous highs.


    The executives, who had been anxious and troubled, finally breathed sighs of relief.


    The entire Phillips Group not only admired and respected Dani but now looked up to her with great reverence.


    They followed her lead without question. Within just five days, Phillips Group’s stock soared to new heights, shutting down all doubts. A wave of optimism swept through everyone in thepany.
