Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1215
Hendrick nodded his head, agreeing fervently. After all, if Hannah had been desperate for riches and glory, she would have promptly signed on the dotted line of Fabian’s contract back then, wouldn’t she?
He couldn’t help but swell with pride at the thought. Good girl! Hendrick thought proudly. I’m glad you’ve got a backbone of your own. They didn’t manage to buy you over!
Observing Hendrick’s features relax soften once more, Fabian inwardly heaved a long sigh of relief. The immensely draining ordeal was over at last.
The Phoenix Group Transfer of Shares Agreement had actually been witnessed by a few of the company’s shareholders. Fabian had had it prepared for if he and Hannah got a divorce. The contract hadn’t quite served its intended purpose but had proven to be unexpectedly useful in the meantime.
As for that consent form, Fabian had taken pains to seek out the help of a hospital staff member. The cherry on top of this delightful fabrication was Hannah’s hospital record. Fabian had had it manufactured by an expert he’d sourced online.
Jason, totally oblivious to Fabian’s machinations, looked at the Youngs’ content faces. All’s well that ends well, I suppose!
“Uncle Hendrick, Aunt Gillian, didn’t I tell you how great Fabian was? Wasn’t I speaking the truth? You’ve seen for yourselves how considerate Fabian is of Hannah. He spent the whole night at the hospital yesterday! He practically moved in to stay,” Jason concluded, beaming.
Jason hadn’t deliberately intended to flatter Fabian or exaggerate. It was a fact that Fabian had always been good to Hannah. Gillian flashed a dazzling smile at Fabian. “Hannah can be rather headstrong at times. Please try to be patient with her.”
Neither Hendrick nor Gillian was able to sufficiently express the joy they felt at that moment. Hannah’s impending marriage had always loomed over their heads. The Youngs agonized as they watched Hannah mature into a beautiful woman with no obvious intentions of settling down. Now, however, they could repose in the fact that Hannah was finally married, and to a man like Fabian who evidently cared a great deal for her.
