At this time, the manager of the public relations department called and said anxiously, “Mr. Lane, a video of Secretary Leke bringing a little boy to see the doctor in the hospital has suddenly started trending on the internet. The previous video from the dinner party was also re-posted and it has also started trending.”
“Do you need me to teach you how to deal with this type of news?” Steve tugged at his tie irritably and said coldly, “If you can’t handle it, then quit!”
After hanging up the phone, he became even more angry, and he called Ruby a few seconds later.
“Steve......”
“If Leo is not feeling well, you should ask the home doctor to come to the house, or let a servant bring him to the hospital. Did you feel that I didn’t have enough problems by bringing him to the hospital like that?” Steve said grimly, “Now the internet is full of videos of you bringing our child to the hospital!”
Hearing this, Ruby panicked, “I didn’t expect someone to follow me... “
“This is your last chance” Steve warned her, “ARCTIC is the result of my arduous work. If in the future anything else negatively affects ARCTIC, I’ll buy a ticket and send you abroad with our child.”
Why couldn’t this news be suppressed? Who was challenging him?
Steve thoughts were irritable. He looked across the road again and scowled as he saw that Ethan had already gotten into the car.
In order to get revenge, was she willing to accept any man so long as he stretched out his hand to help her?
In the back seat of the car, Ethan put the marriage certificate into the armrest compartment between the driver and passenger seats, and asked Clara lightly, “What did you want to say when you just came out of the city hall?”
Clara pursed her lower lip and asked, “Mr. Preston, will we hold a wedding ceremony?”
“It’s up to you.” Ethan didn’t seem to have expected this question. “If you want, I will ask Donny to arrange it.”
“No need.” Clara said hurriedly, “Since Mr. Preston has let me decide, then let’s leave it.”
Not holding a wedding ceremony with Ethan was exactly what she wanted.
She was also afraid that she would die like his two previous wives. If she hid their marriage, she might be able to live a while longer...
Ethan knew what she was thinking just by seeing a few subtle expressions on her face. He found it interesting, and raised his thin lips slightly, revealing a very faint smile.
“Mr. Preston......” Clara seemed to have something else.
“Since we’ve received the marriage certificates, you always calling me Mr. Preston is too distant. “ Ethan lit a cigarette and lowered the window at his side. His expression faint. “I am fourth in my family. You can call me Ethan. “
“Then Ethan.” Ethan was several years older than her, so it was hard to call him by his first name.
Clara considered a bit, and then said, “The servant who sprained her waist is called Mae. She worked in the Rowan family for more than 20 years and watched me grow up. Mae is old, and I’m afraid that Steve will secretly cause trouble for her. Can you let Mae move to Preston Village to take care of me?”
“Have you forgotten what I said last night?” Ethan glanced at her, “After getting the marriage certificate you are now Mrs. Preston, and also the hostess of Preston Village.”
Hearing this, Clara Rowan smiled lightly, “Thank you, Ethan.”
Originally, Ethan had said that he would take time in the morning to get their marriage certificates, but he had then had to deal with other matters, and with Mae hurting her back, the two had spent the morning running errands, and it was already three or four o’clock in the afternoon by the time they got their marriage certificate.
Ethan called the secretariat and told them to push everything to tomorrow. Then he returned to Preston Village with Clara.
