Chapter 189
James arrived in a Mercedes–Benz
Roseanne sat in the backseat, sizing up the car’s interior. It was quite luxurious, indicating that the vehicle was high–end. Anyone who could afford such a car would not be short of money. With that thought in mind, she looked at the man before her again. The woman mised, “Now that Mason has completely fallen from grace, it will be great if this man is my father‘
The car soon stopped at the hospital entrance as the passengers alighted.
Roseanne asked in confusion, “Why are we here!”
To conduct a DNA test. I will treat you well if you’re my biological daughter” James was in a good mood. He seemed to have confirmed that Roseanne was his daughter, and he came here for the DNA test just to completely reassure himself.
The
process was quick, but seven days were usually needed to get the report. James couldn’t wait, so he asked someone to help him shorten the waiting time to two days. After leaving the hospital, he took Felicia and Roseanne back to his house.
Meanwhile, Cynthia’s robot project was already underway. However, a big project like this wouldn’t yield immediate results, and it took time to make a profit. Just when she was troubled by whom to ask for the capital, the phone rang. It was a familiar overseas call, so the woman smiled and
answered the call
“Cynthia, congratulations. You got married and became a CEO within a few months, leading a life so blissful you’ve forgotten all about us” Haller’s jealous voice came from the phone
Cynthia was happy to hear from him, so she didn’t mind his sarcastic remark “Haller, did you find out about everything!”
“You guys are so high–profile. Can I not know?” Hallet replied sassily. “Mind you. It’s not just me. The two masters have also discovered the news, and they are furious. You should explain to them.”
“Ah Cynthia was surprised. “Do they ever care about news!”
“That’s bad luck for you. The two of them have been getting along well recently and planned to travel somewhere. When they searched the travel guide on their phone, they happened to stumble upon your news: Hallet sighed with a gloating expression. They are enraged. You should find a way to calm them down.”
Hearing this, Cynthia hurriedly said, “Hallet, you can’t let me face this alone. I’m hassled by my company matters now. Please help me explain the situation to them”
“Nope,” Hallet refused without hesitation. Then, he couldn’t help but complain, Tm angry, too. I don’t mean to blame you, but we grew up together. We don’t keep secrets. How long have you been back! Yet, you didn’t tell us about your marriage.”
Hallet was truly pisse
pissed off. Cynthia could hear his heavy breathing down the phone.
Knowing she was in the wrong, she explained, “Hallet, a lot of things have happened during this period. My marriage was unexpected. I explain it to you later, okay? Now, please help me calm them down”
“No way. They are still fuming What if they unleash their frustration on me if I speak up for you now? Hallet refused directly. “You should return and do it yourself.”
Acting coy wasn’t working. Noticing that Hallet was determined not to help her, Cynthia had no choice but to adopt a stern tone. “Hallet, don’t forget that you killed Master Garten’s pet when you were a child, and I took the blame for you. But now, you’re refusing my request for help when I need you. You’re heardess.”
“Why are you talking about something that happened so long ago!” Haller’s eyes lickered, revealing a hint of uncertainty.
Cynthia poured. “I don’t care. Anyway, if you don’t help me, I will tell Master Garten about this. I’m sure you’re aware of her punishing tactics.
Thinking of the pets that Delilah kept, Hallet trembled and surrendered. “Okay, fine. I’ll help you.”
Cynthia raised her eyebrows proudly. Suddenly, she thought of something and voiced coyly, “Haller.. Goosebumps ran all over Hallet, who was incredibly disgusted. “Just speak. Don’t talk to me with that voice Cynthia also felt disgusted and straightened her face. “Hallet, do you have money?
“Money! Didn’t your husband give you money? How could the wife of the CEO of such a big company be short of money! What is your husband doing? What’s the use of being with such a useless man! Aliandon him and return, I’ll support you financially, Hallet blabbered.
Cynthia was rendered speechless, thinking, ‘Oh, old habits die hard. Why does a handsome man like him like to nag! I guess God is fair after all‘ Hallet spun endless scenarios from just a single sentence, going on and on incessantly. Unable to bear it any longer, she interrupted, “Stop! Haller, don’t your girlfriend find you annoying?”
Chapter 189
Hallet paused momentarily and said loudly. “Is that disdain 1 sense?”
Cynthia didn’t say anything but snorted, which was self–evident.
Hallet sighed. “Ah, you grew up so fast. You have only been married for a short while, and now you’re already disdaining your family”
Cynthia rolled her eyes. “Hallet, I really need the money. Do you have it or not?”
“Your husband doesn’t give you money!” Hallet responded.
“He has already given me a lot of money. I’m embarrassed to ask him for it a family’s help, Cynthia told him
again. The company needs some capital,
1, so I can only ask for my
Her words made Hallet happy somehow. He agreed readily. “All right. I ca
I can give it to you, but I have one request”
“What is it” Cynthia asked.
“Introduce your husband to us. Then, I’ll give you the money, Hallet stated
“Hallet. II—“Cynthia wanted to wait until the company stabilized before doing so. However, before she could finish her sentence, Hallet interrupted firmly, “I won’t take no as an answer. Fll give you as much money as you want, I will personally pass it to you once you return with your man” Then, he hung up the phone without allowing Cynthia to refute.
In response, she angrily threw the phone on the table.
“Who infuriated your A man’s deep voice came from the door.
Cynthia raised her head as a smile formed on her face. “What brings you here?”
Liam, wearing a black suit, strode in and sat down beside her. He peered at the messy documents on the table and smiled. I’m worried about you, so I came to take a look”
“Have you finished your work?” Cynthia asked worriedly.
Liam nodded. “It’s almost done.”
Meanwhile, at Sullivan Group, Ziv was exhausted. He had only slept for three hours the previous night. Then, the man arrived at the company early in the morning, not having the time to drink water as his work kept him busy. He had to face all kinds of complaints from his subordinates. Although it was tiring, Ziv lived up to his name of being the man Liam personally selected. Even though his eyes were about to close, Zivtill managed to arrange his work in an orderly manner.
