The Scorned Heiress: No More Mercy novel Chapter 766

As they say, caring too much messes with your head.

Tara takes a sip of her milk tea, her beautiful, expressive eyes blinking thoughtfully. Suddenly, a brilliant idea strikes her.

"Actually, I'm thinking of organizing a corporate retreat at the end of the month. We could take everyone camping or book a resort," she suggests. "That'll give you plenty of time to get cozy with Coen."

With all the recent drama and massive personnel changes at the Dennis Group, she figures the employees are likely feeling anxious and unanchored. A two-day, one-night short getaway could be the perfect way to let everyone blow off some steam and build better team cohesion. It's a win-win.

"Yes! Absolutely! We have to do this. Let's pick a spot and start brainstorming the itinerary right now," Bianca agrees enthusiastically. She loves having fun, knows exactly how to enjoy life, and being single gives her zero attachments. Whenever she has time off, she's jet-setting around the world on some fabulous vacation.

"Great. Then I'll leave the location and planning in your capable hands, VP Turner," Tara says, giving her shoulder a light pat.

Tara opens her secure safe and pulls out her father's journal, flipping through the worn pages for the hundredth time. Alongside the diary, she takes out his old, deliberately damaged phone. Although the device has been repaired, it yielded no concrete evidence regarding his case. Still, she can't resist aimlessly swiping across the screen. Deep down, she clings to the hope that she might uncover some hidden trace of a clue. It was the last thing he touched before he died, and the fact that its data was purposefully wiped makes her instinctively feel that it harbors a critical secret. Whether it does or not, messing with the old phone has become her quiet ritual.

"I can't believe those idiots in the Dennis family are actually banding together now. It looks like they want to make peace with Tara. This is a complete disaster!"

In a hidden, undisclosed location, Jovani complains bitterly during a secret rendezvous with Gregory.
