Revenge On Her Ex After Rebirth novel Chapter 451

Chapter 451 A Moment of Panic

"You'd better think it over, 'cause we're on the same side!" Charles threw down his words and hung up immediately. He didn't put it plainly and let Henry guess what he wanted to express.
After laying his phone down, Henry thought a lot. He could choose to be an ally of Charles because he could take advantage of Charles. But, as for doing something illegal for him, Henry hesitated. If he refused Charles he wouldn't be able to exploit Charles Sawyer anymore. Moreover, Charles might even stand in his path.
Henry was clear that people like Charles would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. So, if he turned Charles down this time, he must die awfully.
Amid hesitation, the door of the room suddenly opened. Henry's expression immediately changed, from grim and cold to mild.
He lightly smiled at Susan and asked, "Susan, what are you doing here?"
"My dad irritated me." Susan was almost falling apart. As long as she thought of the way Manuel had swaggered before her, Susan was furious.
"Just let it go." said Henry soothingly, "You know that your dad has a great affection for Justine. Your dad tried to be nice to Manuel now because of her. Don't be angry."
"I'm so mad because he would do anything for that woman, you know! Just the same as in those years, he didn't come to see my mom last time because of Justine. This thought pissed me off!"
"Sweetie, don't be angry about it." Henry tried to calm her and said, "Anyway, getting mad won't solve the problem."
"Why are you so generous?" Susan looked at him, "Manuel has robbed you of your position."
"I don't think it matters what position I hold. The point is that I do a good job and, you know, let your dad be satisfied with my work. I don't care about anything else, and you don't have to defend me."
"The more you said like this, the more guilty I'll feel."
"You don't have to be guilty of anything. I had nothing back then, but now I'm working at a company that ranks one of the top 3 in the country. I appreciate it. You don't have to think too much." Henry stood up from the office chair and hugged Susan.
Susan was touched by his generosity. She thought he would be sad and didn't expect that he would comfort her. However, he was the one who should feel the worst.
"Go back to work." Henry released her arm and said, "Don't get caught by your dad, or he'll complain that you don't work hard."
"OK." Susan nodded.
Henry smiled at her.
Walking out of Henry's office, Susan went back to hers. Thinking about it and feeling bitter, she phoned Hannah. As always, she would think of Hannah as soon as she was in hot water.
Being filled with indignation, she told Hannah the thing from beginning to end and asked, "Do you think Manuel is mean?"
"I think you're meaner. " Hannah said bluntly.
Susan was almost pissed off, "Hannah, do you understand what I just said?"
"It's none of your business that Manuel works for your family's company, OK? You divorced him, so he's supposed to avoid every occasion you showed up? Sis, Don't you think you're being a little bossy?"
"But it's my family's company."
"It's your family's company, but it's not yours. It belongs to your dad." Hannah said slowly, "Have you done anything for the company? Have you helped your dad run it? So, It's your dad's company, and you aren't qualified to ask your dad not to let Manuel join in it."
"..." Susan was speechless because of her words.
"Susan, you've divorced Manuel. And if you want to let him go, you'd better learn how to treat him without any emotion. He's not your husband anymore, so you have no right to lose your temper with him." Hannah said clearly.
But Susan felt uncomfortable after hearing what Hannah said.
"Think about it," said Hannah.
Since Susan had chosen this path, she had to bear a lot on her own. Hannah thought what she could do is making sure Susan wouldn't suffer the repeat of her last life.
Hannah stood up from the office chair and came up to the French windows in the corridor. Looking at the skyscrapers out of the window, she felt somewhat lost, for a little moment.
What could she change in the future?
How far could she change these things?
She had no idea about these questions.
Hannah ended her mood of melancholy by taking a deep breath. At least, she wouldn't bend to fate in her this life. Going back to her seat, she picked up the internal phone and said, "Rose, contact journalists and publish the fact that I have finished the takeover of the Bead chain e-commerce platform."
"Yes," Rose answered.
Hannah stretched herself for a second. This time, she wanted to panic Charles first and make a clean sweep of the Sawyer Family!
...
All the media outlets were reporting that the Cooper Group bought the Bead chain e-commerce Platform for 5 million.
Charles felt nervous the moment he saw the news. And he felt something was wrong because Hannah did it at this point. The fact that the Sawyer Group was building an international e-commerce platform had been known by Hannah. So he couldn't believe it was a coincidence that she had suddenly done such a thing.
Was she was trying to compete with him?
Thinking of the project of South Bay New Town, he had been in a competition with the Cooper Group and won, Charles wondered if Hannah was trying to get back at him in the same way. Anyway, it was so ridiculous that she used an e-commerce platform worth 5 million to compare with a 2 billion one. Even if Hannah was great, he couldn't believe that the e-commerce platform abroad would choose to cooperate with such a local small-scale one.
He thought Hannah was throwing straws against the wind. Even if he had figured it out, he still couldn't feel relaxed. After all, now Hannah was too strong for him to take her lightly. Besides, the Sawyer Group was suffering a financial strain now. Charles had to rely on international e-commerce to increase the value of Sawyer's shares, so their capital flows could also be smoothed. Hannah didn't want him to feel good, so she had a hand in now!
Charles clenched his teeth. He couldn't let Hannah take any advantage of this project. If he lost the game this time, he was afraid he would be abandoned by the aristocratic family.
He didn't understand since when Hannah had no feelings for him. And until now he had no idea when she had found what he was. He had planned everything so flawlessly.
Thinking of this, Charles's face turned cold and grim. But now the point was seeking a way to kill Hannah, Charles thought. He was eager to ruin her reputation and let her suffer a living death. Otherwise, the fierce hatred in his heart couldn't be dispelled.
He had never met a person who could make him hate so badly but he couldn't find a way to torture and retaliate against her.
He would make her regret what she had done.
