Chapter 800
If Donald didn't meet Geraldine's standard, she would've left Pollerton immediately. After all, she didn't have all the time in the world to search for the next suitable candidate who would help achieve her goal.
“All right. You have a deal.” Donald nodded.
In response, Geraldine handed the flash drive to him.
At the same time, Jennifer brought a reheated sandwich from the kitchen to the living room. “What are you two chatting about that made you both happy?”
“Naturally, it's because I'm inspecting whether your husband deserves you or not. That's what I should do as your best friend,” replied Geraldine.
Jennifer pursed her lips, grinning. “What's the verdict?”
“He's all right.” Geraldine stared at Donald with a meaningful look. “I still need to observe his later performance.”
They heard a knocking on the door when Geraldine ended her sentence.
“Who is it?” asked Jennifer before opening the door. Immediately, a group of bodyguards in black barged in without any greetings.
“Who are you? Who let you inside?” she questioned angrily.
A man in a white suit and a rose in his chest pocket sauntered into the house.
When he spotted Geraldine sitting on the couch, an affectionate smile was set on his countenance. “How can you run away from home without saying a word, my dear sister? Do you know how much I was worried about you? Stop being naughty and go home with me, okay?”
When Geraldine saw that man, she reacted as though she had just seen a terrifying monster.
Hastily, she hid behind Donald and spat, “Keep dreaming, Archer! I won't go home with you, so give up already!”
The smile on Archer Harper's face froze as a darkened look swirled in his eyes. “Didn't I warn you not to get too close to unfamiliar men, Ginny?”
Upon detecting their employer's anger, four bodyguards cracked their knuckles and approached Donald.
“You're Archer Harper? The second son of the Harper family?” Staring at the hostile bodyguards, Donald spoke casually. “Are you familiar with Hannah Nixon?”
Archer arched his eyebrow and gestured for the bodyguards to cease their movements. “You know Hannah?”
“Yeah. Not only that, I'm familiar with her brother, Ryan. As his friend, I think I have the right to make a request for your sister to be allowed to spend a few days here.”
After meeting Geraldine last night, Donald asked Billy to investigate the Harper family. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
While the Harper family was one of the few distinguished families in New Littbourg, it was still incomparable to the Nixon family.
The Harper family had always focused on the research of pharmaceutical products, and Hannah was one of the people in charge of Lab 206.
As such, the Harper family had always wished to establish a friendly relationship with the Nixon family, but they couldn't find the opportunity to do so.
It could be said that the ground beneath the Harper family would shake every time the Nixon family sneezed.
Hence, when Donald claimed he was a good friend of Ryan, Archer was rather skeptical. How can someone like Donald be familiar with Ryan?
Seeing that Archer didn't believe him, Donald contacted Ryan on the phone and put the call in loudspeaker mode.
When the call connected, Ryan said, “I didn't expect you to call me, Mr. Campbell.”
Mr. Campbell? Archer sneered. Even the actor he hired isn't putting on a good performance. Ryan is a major general. There's no way he'll refer to Donald in such a polite manner.
“I'm facing a bit of an issue, Ryan, and I need your help.”
“Who has the nerve to trouble you, Mr. Campbell?”
“I think his name is Archer Harper. The daughter of the Harper family, Geraldine, is my wife's best friend. Initially, she planned to spend a few days at my place to hang out with my wife. However, her brother barged into my house like a mad dog, demanded to bring her away, and attempted to inflict harm on me.”
