A smile tugged on the lady’s red lips as she held a glass of red wine in her hand.
When she unlocked her phone, it displayed a photo of Jared. It was the perfect airport photo, showcasing his handsome and captivating image.
Just then, her phone rang, and she glanced at it before answering the call. It was her father speaking in Hoglandish. “Hello, Dad.” “Are you sure about this? I’m feeling a lot of pressure from your grandfather’s side.”
“Dad, trust me. My goal isn’t to take down that company. I just want to get close to Mr. Presgrave using this way. Don’t you want a son- in-law who is rich and powerful? He possesses all the qualities that I desire. I want to attract him.” The lady’s voice was filled with confidence as if capturing
Jared’s heart was an absolute certainty. “Alright, I’ll give you six months, and you can use the company’s resources to approach him.”
“Dad, if I don’t win him over, how is Grandpa going to give you the inheritance rights? Uncle Owen has already gained Grandpa’s favor. With Grandpa’s health failing, he could pass away at any time.
I must fight for your inheritance rights while Grandpa is still alive,” Hannie firmly declared since marrying Jared was the best way to prove herself. “Alright. I’m counting on you now.”
After Hannie hung up the phone, her assistant pushed the door open and walked in, holding the latest set of airport photos. “Miss Quins, this was just taken by our people.”
When Hannie took the photos and saw the photo of Jared holding hands with a young girl, her eyes narrowed a little. “It seems that Mr. Presgrave has a girlfriend.”
