Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!

"Speak of the devil, and he shall appear," Sadie said as she picked up the phone.

"Ms. James!"

"Jesse, it's so good to hear your voice."

Sadie felt as if she had found a lifeline. In her current state of isolation, she desperately needed help.

"Are you still in Country E? Have you made contact with Tristan?"noveldrama

"Not yet," Jesse replied. "But I have confirmed that Mr. James is alive and safe. I've

returned to Newark to protect you and the three girls."

"You've come back to Newark? That's fantastic," Sadie said, her excitement palpable. "I really need people right now."

"We just landed at Newark Airport. We're ready for your orders."

"Bring your team to the Clemens Group immediately," Sadie instructed.

"Got it, we'll be there right away!"

"Wait, hold on."

Sadie suddenly calmed down.

There were already rumors circulating that she was back at the Clemens Family's behest, seeking revenge and aiming to take over the Clemens Group. If she was seen with Tristan's people, it would only fuel those suspicions.

"Don't worry," Jesse reassured her. "The team I brought are all new faces. No one knows who they are."

Jesse understood her concerns. "I met up with Terry in Country E and swapped out the team. These people have always been with Mr. James but have never appeared in public. No one knows their identities. I'll stay out of sight and protect you from the _shadows while we figure out who's pulling the strings on the other side."

"You're incredibly thoughtful," Sadie said, overjoyed. "Come quickly. I'll have Annika meet you."

"Understood."

After hanging up, Annika said, "This is great. With Jesse here, it's like having divine assistance."

"Jesse's timing couldn't be better," Sadie agreed, though she was puzzled. "But wait, it's almost like he knew I was in trouble and came back to Newark in advance."

"He did say he was planning to return anyway and just happened to be here," Annika pointed out.

"No," Sadie shook her head. "I feel like he was already planning to come back to protect me."

"Maybe Tristan found out about the Clemens Family situation and got worried, so he sent Jesse back," Sadie speculated. "Tristan can be tough on the outside but soft- hearted."

"You're probably right," Annika said, feeling reassured. Sadie had figured it out without her saying a word.

"Let's get to work," Sadie said, glancing at her watch. "We can't lose today, or I'll have let Micah down."

"Everything will be fine. We haven't done anything wrong," Annika comforted her. "I'll go handle the security arrangements now."

"Go ahead."

Sadie paced her office, phone in hand.

It was 10 AM, and the press conference was in an hour. With Jesse handling security, she felt much more at ease.

She could clear up the baseless accusations from the media and present evidence to back her claims.

But she had no idea what other schemes the mastermind might have in store.

The enemy was hidden, making it impossible to predict their moves.

But worrying wouldn't help. She'd have to take things as they came.

With that thought, Sadie sat down and continued working on her documents. She needed to stay calm, no matter what happened.

Meanwhile, Chloe had already informed everyone about the rescheduled press conference, and Annika had met with Jesse to discuss the security measures.

"Jesse, here's a detailed map of the Clemens Group building, inside and out. Everyone gets a copy. It might come in handy."

"Thanks," Jesse said, taking the map and handing it to his team without even looking at it. "I've already studied them before. I've got it all memorized."
