Chapter 556 HelpOut "I know you're not fond of Shawn Heavy Industries, Grandpa, but this is the first company I built from the ground up. I don't want to..." now?" "If you really didn't want to, you wouldn't have let it get into such dire straits. Michael, I've told you before. In business, you need to have a backup plan. But you, you've surrounded yourself with people you thought were loyal, never thinking they might betray you. And Michael's confusion grew as he listened. "Are you suggesting that..." Admas said, "You don't need to guess. How many people have left Shawn Heavy Industries? Don't you have a clue?" A shiver ran down Michael's spine. He remembered that Owen had left with Lucy.
He thought, "So, Is Grandpa saying Owen might be involved in this?" "Forget it. You've ctofor help. If you want to leverage our family's influence, fine. But don't think that small amount of money will last long if you don't resolve things quickly." Michael knew that despite his wealth, maintaining a company in poor shape could lead to financial disaster in no time.

If you're still acting like a clueless fool, you might find yourself managing a company in Mamaica instead." With that, Admas leaned on his cane and went upstairs. It was getting late, and Michael had to prepare for tomorrow's fireworks show with Chloe, so he left Shawn Manor.
In the study upstairs, Simeon stood before Admas. "Sir Shawn, the Miller family's representatives returned stago. Would you like to meet with them?" Admas had taken a secret trip abroad recently, meeting with a few people. He hadn't anticipated that the Miller family would head back so soon.
"The Miller family's young lady? It's been years since I last saw her. If possible, have her over for a visit and a meal." Simeon nodded. "Certainly, Sir Shawn. I'll make the arrangements." At the Miller Manor, Amanda was visibly anxious about Chloe's upcoming trip abroad.
Marvin sat on the couch, watching her pace back and forth, and finally said with a touch of exasperation, "Aunt, you're blocking my view of the TV!" "All you do is watch TV. Why don't you helpout a bit?" Amanda snapped back.
Marvin looked genuinely innocent. "How am I supposed to help? The DNA results aren't back yet. I can't make them hurry up. What else can I do but wait?" Amanda retorted, "The agency you recommended? It's been days and there's still no news." Her frustration was palpable. She seemed ready to snap at anyone and everything, including Marvin.
To her, Marvin was as annoying as a stray dog.

Marvin, feeling unjustly accused, protested, "I'm not in charge of the agency. Besides, I can't speed up the I results. Getting mad atwon't change anything." Amanda's anger flared, and she slapped him on the side. "Enough with your smart mouth!" Marvin yelped in pain and then said, "Why don't you just go to Mamaica with Chloe? The Miller family has projects there. If you went along, Chloe probably wouldn't suspect a thing." Amanda paused, considering Marvin's suggestion. "Should I really go with Chloe to Mamaica?"
On the day of the fireworks festival, Chloe, Candy, Quinn, and Jessica gathered on Urban Lane, Even m though the location was only a short ten-minute drive away, they decided to take Candy's SUV. Chloe's sports car wasn't the most practical for carrying a group of people.
When they arrived at the festival grounds, an area known as Lake Tankwood, they were surprised to were nearly deserted.
