She Was Never Just a Pretty Face novel Chapter 194

"You've been busy all day. Come, have some soup."

"I wasn't feeling well this morning."

"I'll help you look after the kids from now on."

"Your mother's health isn't great, and it's too exhausting for her."

Hilda offered a soft nod.

As she drank the soup, she discussed the logistics of moving back to Havenworth City with Catherine.

Catherine looked at her son in the bed.

Her heart ached, but she knew it was the best choice.

If Harrell wasn't going to wake up, they had to bring him home eventually. He belonged with his roots.

Late April.

The Judsons prepared to relocate entirely back to Havenworth City.

Unexpectedly, a massive crisis struck Judson Corporation.

Harrell and Yorick Lynn had partnered on a massive development project.

Harrell had poured tens of millions into it.

After his marriage, Harrison had practically handed the entire business over to him. That money was the absolute lifeblood of the Judson family. Just as they were packing up to leave, and right when Hilda—as his legal spouse—was about to manage those funds, disaster struck. Yorick's project collapsed, and the money vanished into thin air.

In other words, it was entirely gone.

Yorick offered zero explanation, merely dropping a few empty apologies.

The Judson family's business was on the brink of total disintegration.

—And suddenly, nobody could get ahold of Yorick Lynn.

During a small gathering, Zane Ziegler couldn't hold his tongue.

He openly criticized Yorick for being outrageously greedy.

Inside the private VIP booth, Yorick leaned back against the sofa, casually swirling the red wine in his glass with a cold smirk.

"If I didn't take that money, someone else would have."

"Zane, do you really not see the bigger picture yet?"
