Chapter 196 Clear It Up or Not?
The person who showed up was Duke Wilson.
Hellen was slightly startled.
Wilson’s face was full of appreciation, “Mr. Grant, why don’t we talk? I want to make friends with you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to look at the nearby Hellen and smiled extremely warmly.
“Miss Jovano, my wife is on the second floor. She’s not used to life in Country H yet. Can you chat with her for a bit?”
Wilson’s invitation was almost half of the entry ticket for cooperation.
Hellen pursed her lips, ‘What an unexpected development?’
Wilson thought that Hans and she were a husband and wife or a couple, and in his opinion, this husband in front of him was protecting his wife just now.
Thinking back to how Wilson loved his wife like his own life, Hellen felt that this was rather absurd.
Should she clear it up or not?
If she didn’t clarify it, it would take a long time for people in Tempe City to spread rumors about her and Hans.
But if she clarified it, there was a good chance they won’t get the deal.
Amidst the chaos, Hellen made up her mind.
Forget it, there’s already a lot of gossip about her, and before she was even reported to have an affair with Eddie.
The others could say whatever they wanted.
They can’t lose the cooperation with Wilson!
If this business deal was taken by someone else, it would be a great threat to the Grant Group and the Jovano Group.
Hellen laughed, “Fine, but my English isn’t too good. I am afraid that your wife will laugh at me.”
“It doesn’t matter. She also doesn’t speak the language here.” Wilson said with a smile.
Hans and Hellen were led to the second floor.
In the main hall, everyone was looking at their backs. Some were happy while others worried.
“As expected, this business is about to fall into the hands of these two.”
“They are now allies. How can we possibly compete with them? I didn’t have much hope, to begin with.”
In the crowd, only Cara stood still.
She clenched her fists tightly, and her heart was filled with panic.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
What should she do? Ever since her family had been driven out of Tempe City by Everet a few years ago, her father had almost beaten her to death and accused her of harming her entire family.
Recently, her family group had been developing well in Imperial Capital, which was why his father had gradually forgotten about this.
But today, Hans said that he would make it so that the Whyte family couldn’t stay in Imperial Capital any longer!
Cara trembled slightly and comforted herself in her heart.
‘That’s impossible. After all, the Grant Group is just an overlord in Tempe City. How could it have connections in Imperial Capital?’
When the people around passed by and saw Cara, they looked at her with disdain.
She was born into a rich family, but she had poor manners.
Had the Whytes sinned in their previous lives to have such a daughter? What a troublemaker!
Cara had returned to Tempe City to celebrate her best friend’s birthday.
Thinking of her best friends who brought her here, she immediately looked at the crowd.
Currently, Cara’s best friend was being held back by her parents.
“Don’t contact that idiot again!”
“Fortunately, Hans didn’t ask who brought her here today. Otherwise, even our family would have been implicated!”
Cara heard some people discussing.
“Stay away from her. What if she hears you?”
“It’s okay. Her family is finished.”
…
On the second floor of Ronal Castle.
Wilson took Hans and Hellen to the reception room on the second floor in person.
“My wife might still be sleeping. I’ll go wake her up.” He smiled apologetically.
A short while later, Wilson and his wife arrived at the reception hall.
Wilson’s wife’s name was Amy Ryder. She was a very beautiful woman and looked younger than him.
Hellen and Amy chatted for a while.
Sitting in the private meeting room, none of the four mentioned business.
They were talking about some local specialties in Tempe City and some famous food.
“I want to have a taste of something called bean curd.” Mrs. Wilson listened with relish. She looked at Hellen beside her, “Mrs. Jovano, in the next few days, if you have some free time, can you take me to have a taste of these delicacies?”
Hellen laughed as she set up a time to meet Mrs. Wilson another day.
A seminar was supposed to be held today.
But now, all the guests in Ronal Manor knew that there was no need to hold this seminar. Wilson had already chosen his ideal partner.
However, the process of the seminar still had to go through.
Not long after, Wilson and Hans got up and went downstairs to participate in the seminar.
Hellen wasn’t interested in this at all. In addition, Amy was chatting happily with her, so she stayed on the second floor.
At eight o’clock in the evening, Hellen and Hans walked out of Ronal Manor.
“How did your conversation with Mr. Wilson go?” Hellen asked in a low voice.
The two of them got in the car.
Hans replied, “Mr. Wilson is still thinking about it, but I think as long as there are no other changes recently, we can get this opportunity. After that, it will be the negotiation period.”
Hellen let out a long sigh and leaned against the back of the passenger seat, glancing sideways at Hans.
“Good. I did not sacrifice my reputation in vain!”
Hans did not say anything as he drove.
The more Hellen thought about it, the angrier she became. But the man intended to help her, and because of this, there was hope for them to get a chance to cooperate with a royal family from Empire Y.
“How troublesome.” Hellen scratched her head irritably.
She could already imagine that before tomorrow, her relationship with Hans would be known to all the rich and powerful families in Tempe City tonight.
How would her mother react then? How was she going to explain it to her brother?
Hellen weakly let out a long sigh.
Hans drove the car and looked ahead calmly.
Because the car carried the person he valued most, he drove more cautiously than usual.
“Isn’t that good? A baby needs a nominal father, which can prevent others from gossiping behind your back.”
Hellen frowned, “My baby doesn’t need a nominal father. Having me as its mother is enough!”
A nominal biological father?
Hans was the child’s biological father!
She didn’t expect him to focus on this matter.
Hellen let out a long sigh, ‘Forget it, as long as Hans doesn’t find out that the baby is his.’
When the car was about to reach the Jovano’s, the cell phone next to Hellen’s hand rang.
She took a look at the caller ID and saw that it was Everet’s.
Hellen let out a sigh in her heart. She knew why her big brother had called her.
She felt a little guilty.
She wanted to explain everything to Everet when she got home, so she hung up the phone.
Two seconds after hanging up, the ringtone rang again.
Hellen replied directly with a text message, [Everet, I’ll explain it to you when I get home!]
It didn’t take long for Everet to reply.
[You just told Hans about the baby. Why didn’t you discuss it with me and Mom in advance?]
Hellen could sense Everet’s rage through the message.
She glanced at Hans beside her and typed a reply quietly.
[I didn’t tell him.]
[I’ll talk about it in detail when I get home.]
