Chapter 188 He Was in a Good Mood
Outside the office, there was a smile in Hans’s eyes.
Per tradition, Hellen would pay her respects to the ancestor and the master and then give him the tea.
Lambert also gave her a relevant name. After thinking for a while, he smiled and said, “Your name is Loren.”
After the ceremony had been completed, Hellen stopped being severe and frowned as she thought, “Loren? It seems to be an ancient name.”
“Isn’t a good name?” Lambert asked with a smile.
“The proper Apprentice requires three kowtows, and my wife should here too. But now I don’t need you to do that. It’s good enough.”
Lambert accepted a very considerate disciple, and his smile could not be hidden. Still, he could not help but put on airs as a master.
Hellen thought for a moment. “Fine. After all, a teacher for a day is a father for life. I will take care of you and your wife’s retirement.”
Lambert relaxed with a smile.
Lambert suddenly felt that it was good to settle down in Tempe City. Now that he had a disciple, a disciple like half a child.
In addition Hans, his life would not be too bad in his old age.
The master and disciple chatted for a while. Hellen held the thick book and read it like it was a treasure.
Only then did Hans step forward and knock on the door.
Lambert glanced at him and said, “Come in.” This kid had been standing at the door for a while and was stealing glances at his disciple.
Lambert, who had been happy to see him doing like this, now took Hellen as his disciple and began examining Hans.
Hans was a good match for his disciple.
Hans looked at Hellen and said, “It’s time to get off work. We can go to the Yell Club.”
Hellen held the book, thought for a moment, and then put it in the drawer.
“Mr. Thompson, I have to go to the party. There may be someone drinking there. This book is left with you so as not to be contaminated by the smell of smoke and alcohol.”
She valued it very much.
Hans said, “No one will smoke or drink today.”
“Aren’t we going to the Yell Club?” Xeno’s land was a place for drinking parties.
Hellen followed Hans out of the United Department.
David drove the two to the club.
The venue of today’s party was on the first floor. There was a large private room on the first floor of the Yell Club, which was specially designed for a large-scale party.
As soon as Hellen entered the room, they fell silent.
In the ample space, there were two long tables. It was a buffet.
There were tables, chairs, and places for dancing in the middle. It was a banquet hall with a few rows of tables.
“How did Xeno agree to you doing this here?” Hellen said softly.
There was a smile in Hans’s eyes as he said, “I brought him back from Hail City. He’s probably very grateful to me.”
At this time, almost all the members of the United Department had arrived. The group of people was pleased to see this scene.
However, big words were pasted on the wall: No smoking, no drinking!
It was understandable that there was no smoking, but they didn’t know why there was no drinking.
Someone tried to drink a glass that looked like champagne.
En? Iced black tea?!
Soon, everyone found that the goblet was filled with drinks.
Some loved wine and started to panic.
“I thought I could have a good drink today. I’ve worked so hard for so long. Have a good drink and relax.”
“Drink less, you. You almost got late last time when you drank too much!”
There was a sound of discussion.
Hellen burst into laughter. “Why is smoking forbidden? Is it because of me? In that case, I might as well not participate in this party. With such a big party, how can we not enjoy ourselves?”
Whether it was dessert or buffets, they were all from the ingredients by chefs.
Every one of them was extremely valuable, making it even more of a pity that there was no wine to eat.
Hans smiled and said, “It’s okay. They will be happy soon.”
Confused, Hellen followed Hans to a double table by the side and sat down.
This table was hidden in the corner, but it was just right to look at the chairman’s platform not far away.
Soon, someone got on the stage.
Hellen shocked. “This person is…?”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
The man was wearing the host’s suit and said with a smile, “Hello, everyone, I am the host tonight.”
The people eating snacks cheered up. “There’s actually a show!”
The host gave a brief introduction. There were no other processes except for the lucky draw.
Recently, the United Department of the Weststadt District staff had been working very hard. Hans did not intend to treat them only to a meal.
The first prize was a car, followed by numerous second prizes, and the worst third prize was worth more than 1, 500 dollars.
Hellen hissed, “Mr. Grant, you’re so generous. It seems that I’m only going to treat them to a meal. I’m too stingy.”
Hans smiled lightly and said, “I can ask David to give you the receipt and then say that the Jovano Group is generous.”
Hellen laughed politely. “No need!”
Material money made people happier than wine.
Especially when the prizes were expensive, and there were a lot of them.
After a few rounds of the lucky draws, almost everyone got a small box or two.
The person who got the car keys looked very happy.
He stood on the stage and said, “I want to make a speech for the United Department, for the United Department lives! I will sacrifice myself for the United Department!”
The atmosphere under the stage had become jubilant.
Hellen recognized that he was a steady employee of the Jovano Group.
When Hellen’s gaze fell upon the car logo on the car key, she understood why he was so excited.
“You can’t be thinking of recruiting people from our Jovano Group, right?” Hellen said, puzzled.
“The Grant Group is not lacking in manpower for the time being,” Hans said lightly.
“Then what are you…?”
Even if it was a lucky draw, it was too generous.
Hans looked at Hellen, his eyes deep. He raised his thin lips slightly and said in a hoarse and deep voice, “I’ve been in a good mood recently.”
Hellen: “Fine.”
She didn’t have to worry about Hans’s business. She felt he was in a good mood, and his words sounded a little ambiguous.
At the end of the party, the United Department of the Weststadt District employees seemed to have drunk too much and left happily.
“Tomorrow, work overtime!” Someone raised his voice.
“Work overtime!”
Hellen fell silent.
“I’ll send you back.” Turning around, Hans considerately opened the car door for Hellen.
Seeing Hellen get into the car naturally, Hans felt even better.
Hans sent Hellen back to the Jovano’s house. Looking at her belly, he was worried and reminded her, “Be careful these days.”
Hellen rubbed her lower abdomen and smiled, “Thank you for your concern.”
Not long after they arrived home, Hellen received a call from Granny Grant.
“Granny Grant.” Hellen looked at the time. “It’s already ten. Why haven’t you gone to bed yet?”
Granny Grant complained like a child, “How long has it been since you last came to see me?!”
“Granny. I’ll visit you tomorrow.”
Granny Grant was finally satisfied and muttered a few more sentences, “Come earlier tomorrow. I’ll get someone to make your favorite fish.”
“Alright.” Hellen laughed.
After washing up, Hellen lay on the bed and looked at the schedule.
“I’ll go to see Granny Grant tomorrow. As for the medical plan for my brother, I still need to get a few test results.”
Hellen glanced at her WhatsApp and sighed softly; Darcy still didn’t reply.
