Chapter 443

The following morning.

After the group finished breakfast, Maurice and Frederick left the Winston Mansion one after the other, each heading to their respective offices.

Marguerite was unsure of how Frederick had dealt with the hacker attack on Thunderbolt Enterprises. Despite this, he still managed to maintain a façade of friendliness with Maurice, occasionally even exchanging business strategies.

This left Marguerite somewhat puzzled. What she didn’t understand was that battles between titans were always fought behind the scenes, with neither party ever breaking rank publicly.

As a result, the war between Frederick and Maurice was likely to continue indefinitely.

Not long after the two men had left, Marguerite went upstairs to find Jocelyn.

However, the weather that day was poor, with heavy snow and fog making even the well-lit areas appear grey and hazy.

After breakfast, Powell had settled down for a nap, while Jocelyn was still sitting in her rocking chair, engrossed in paperwork.

Marguerite tiptoed into the room, adopting a playful demeanor as she began to massage Jocelyn’s shoulders.
