Her Seven Little Bodyguards novel Chapter 3

Still, Vania remained calm on the surface as she said, “This isn’t my doing. Galaxy Corporation intends to work with Luke Corporation and would never risk that much over a small mistake like this. As for me, 10 million is just the price of a handbag, and there’s no need for me to go to such great lengths and hack into Luke Corporation’s firewall just for this amount of money. Since someone has framed me, I’ll definitely look into this matter as soon as possible and give you an appropriate explanation, President Luke.”

Hanson stared at her before he replied indifferently, “If that’s the case, I’ll be waiting for your answer, Miss Greyson.”

Before she left, he added, “I want to remind you of one more thing, Miss Greyson. This isn’t a good way to try to draw my attention.”

After all, he had met too many women who would do anything just to get close to him.

At his words, Vania’s expression stiffened. “Don’t worry, I’m not interested in a big shot like you, President Luke. Regarding today’s issue, I’ll investigate it as soon as possible and give you a satisfactory explanation.”

Saying that, she exited without even looking back, not caring about the partnership anymore. After leaving the company, she rushed back to Haling Villa. As she stepped into the house, the first thing she saw was three children sitting on the couch. They were all dressed the same, and their looks were already extraordinary at a young age as each of them obediently read their own books.

Upon seeing Vania’s return, the children surrounded her with smiles on their faces as they called out cutely, “Mommy.”

They looked absolutely naive and harmless, making Vania’s anger dissipate by a good amount. These three were her children that had lived in her belly for ten months. Back then, in the hospital, she had given birth to five babies, but they were sold off to different human traffickers by Melanie. It was only by spending a huge amount of money and buying off the nurse who worked for Melanie that she was able to acquire a lead on her children’s whereabouts.

Fortunately, the human traffickers were only in it for the money, and as long as she had enough, she could get her children back. Still, there were two more children that she couldn’t find any trace of until now. For the past five years, she had been looking for them tirelessly, but alas, her efforts bore no fruit.

Thinking about Hanson’s warning from before, Vania was not bewitched by the children’s adorable appearances and said sternly, “Three of you, listen carefully. I have a question for you, and you better answer me honestly.”

This was the first time that Vania was speaking to her precious children so strictly.

Their expressions remained natural as they replied simultaneously, “We’ll answer honestly, Mommy.”

The eldest son, James, took the initiative to ask, “What’s wrong, Mommy?”

Vania adjusted her expression, her face turning strict. “About Luke Corporation’s…”

“It wasn’t us.” The three children piped up in unison again.

She hadn’t even finished her sentence, but they were already denying it? Weren’t they just blowing their own cover? Vania’s eyes narrowed into a glare; she was infuriated.

Then, James spoke up again, saying, “Mommy, what happened?”

Her second son, Jack, chimed in, “Yeah, what’s Luke Corporation?”
