Chapter 243
It was too quiet, and Jessica felt uneasy, so she decided to turn on the TV.
Hurricane Media was still reporting on Blake’s situation.
This was Blake’s first contract with a company in several years, and he came with his own network of
connections.
To put it bluntly, Jessica provided Blake with shelter and resources, while Blake brought in connections-
they had a mutually beneficial arrangement.
Major domestic media also seized on the heat around the Wilder Group and Blake, reporting extensively.
Under the trending topics, Elfa also squeezed in.
Jessica lowered her hand and looked at Michael.
She wasn’t sure if it was just her illusion, but Michael’s appearance seemed to have changed.
He was no longer the gentle and introverted man she remembered, instead, he looked colder, harsher,
and more restrained.
These various expressions on one person actually seemed somewhat discordant.
But Michael was naturally good–looking, and the fierceness beneath his brows and eyes was well hidden.
Anyone unfamiliar with Michael might think this was his true nature.
Jessica leaned against the sofa, lightly tapping her chin with her finger.
She recalled her conversation with Jaden.
Because Michael’s offer, Jessica had indeed felt a bit tempted.
To be honest, helping Michael overthrow the entire Hall family was much simpler than having Jaden
take over as the head of the family.
People were always selfish.
She had to choose the best path for herself, but she didn’t want to break her many years of friendship
with Collin.
She wanted a win–win situation.
Discussing it with Jaden was the best way.
At that time, Jaden was silent on the other end of the line for a moment, then he slowly said, “Just as I guessed, Michael can’t stand the Hall family anymore. Maybe this Elfa was pushed out by the Hall family.

Now, it’s a slap in their face.”
Jessica pressed further, “So, what’s your opinion?”

“What’s my opinion? Even if the entire Hall family falls, I can rebuild it exactly the same. Jessica, I know what you’re worried about. I have no feelings for the Hall family. I just want to take back everything that should belong to me. You can go all out.”
Since Jessica told him, it meant she didn’t intend to betray Collin.
Jaden continued, “But this Michael guy… can we really trust him? When you’re at the end of the road, who can guarantee Michael isn’t trying to drag you down with him?”
That day, the conversation abruptly ended because Jaden was called to a meeting.
During all the days Collin was away, Hurricane Media was supported solely by Jaden.
In fact, even without the Hall family, Jaden could still thrive at Hurricane Media.
It was just a matter of stubbornness.
The weather outside was gloomy.
