Blimey, My Kid's the Heir to the Billionaire Boss!
Chapter 1352 Scheme (1)

Micah had been feeling super tired lately. He'd just woken up and already wanted to dive back into bed.

Andrew was getting more worried by the day, watching Micah's condition go downhill. If they didn't replace Virgil soon, who knows what might happen...

Just thinking about it made Andrew anxious. He set up an evening date and planned to call Rylan. Right then, his phone buzzed-it was Annika, wanting to meet up. Andrew had to head to the back hill to meet Annika first.

After what happened last time, Andrew was extra cautious, constantly reminding himself not to let Annika trick him into spilling anything.

Meanwhile, before Annika left, Sadie kept reminding her, "Remember what I said, you have to get the truth out of Andrew."

"Got it," Annika nodded.

"Go on," Sadie urged, and Annika hurried off.

Ever since Sadie accidentally found out that Micah seemed to have bouts of blindness, she'd been worried about his health. She sent Annika to check it out once, but that mission was a bust.

Seeing Micah again today, Sadie couldn't shake the worry-he looked worse, and his eyes seemed constantly cloudy. It made her even more determined, so she sent Annika to meet Andrew again, hoping to get some useful info. Sadie knew Annika was smart but not as sharp as Andrew, so she drilled Annika on techniques and tactics before sending her off.

Annika arrived at the back hill, and Andrew had just gotten there too.

Annika hopped into his car and handed him an apple.

"Thanks!" Andrew said, grinning as he took a bite.

Seeing him so happy, Annika felt a bit conflicted. Andrew usually seemed so tough, but he was actually easy to please. She had promised to bring him some homemade food, but she didn't have time to make it today and just grabbed an apple. He was still super happy and satisfied.

"Thanks for today," Annika started, "Duke Louis was too much. We were ready to act, but Mr. Clemens showed up and sorted it out."

"Even though their relationship is strained now, Mr. Clemens still cares a lot about Ms. James. If she's in trouble, he won't ignore it," Andrew said seriously.

He added, "Next time something happens, you need to let me know right away. Today we just happened to run into Duke Louis's car halfway up the mountain, otherwise, it would've been a mess."

"Ms. James doesn't want to owe Mr. Clemens anything," Annika sighed. "I also think they both care about each other. There's no need to keep this stalemate."

"I get it. The Clemens Family hurt her before, and there's a family feud. Those are hard to let go," Andrew sighed deeply. "But Raymond is gone, Nick and the Lingston Family are done for. Those grudges should've been buried long ago. With Tristan missing, our families need to unite and move forward."

"I think so too, but Ms. James has too many concerns," Annika sighed. "Maybe she just needs time, to take it slow."

"We can't afford to take it slow," Andrew blurted out. "Time waits for no one."

"What?" Annika looked at him, confused.

"I mean..." Andrew quickly backpedaled, "the kids are growing up fast. They need both parents. And now, with the James Group in crisis, Ms. James needs Mr. Clemens's help. We should replace a way to bring them back together." "You're right," Annika nodded. "I think so too."

"That's good," Andrew was thrilled. If Annika was willing to help him bring them together, it would be much easier.

"I have to leave in ten minutes," Annika said, glancing at her watch. "Dr. Rey is coming over soon."

"Dahlia?" Andrew asked. "Is she coming to treat Ms. James's wound? How is Ms. James's hand doing?"

"Not well," Annika sighed. "It's been hurting a lot these past two days. I even helped her wash her face this morning."
