Mr. Tycoon's Beloved Wife: The Madam No One Dares to Offend-Chapter 242: The Gifts
Hilla didn’t expect that Cercei was more urgent than she had imagined. Cercei had already packed her luggage before she got the ticket.
They used to hate each other. Cercei liked to target Hilla, while Hilla didn’t like a pretentious woman as Cercei.
Growing up, they were kind of enemies.
"Hilla. To tell you the truth, I envy you and I also hate you."
Cercei pulled the luggage in her hand and looked at Hilla who was still arrogant. The difference was that Hilla’s eyes had lost their sparkle.
That sparkle made Cercei want to kill Hilla.
Hilla smiled. She knew that the grudges between them were over. The Cornel family ran out and Cercei had suffered a lot over the past year.
Hilla knew very well how uncomfortable it was for a young lady who had been pampered since she was young to reach rock bottom.
Hilla had experienced it before, so she understood Cercei’s feelings, but she was much luckier than Cercei.
"You won’t have time to dislike me when you get to Pinecastle."
Hilla chuckled. The two "enemies" in the past seemed to feel relieved.
Cercei bit her lips and was a little hesitant. But she couldn’t help but chuckle sadly.
"You are lucky. You were prettier than me since you were a kid. You were also luckier than me when our companies went out of business. In the past, I couldn’t compete with you in study and design. I’m afraid I won’t be able to compete with you in this life. Hilla, what did you do to have such good luck in life?"
When Cercei heard that Hilla had married into the Anderson family, she was so happy and gloated.
Because Bruce was a living dead at that time. Marrying into the Anderson family was marrying into a grave. Moreover, the Anderson family wanted to change their master at that time. Hilla was living as a widow and courting death. Cercei once thought that Hilla would be chased out by the Anderson family soon.
But the Cornel Group went bankrupt because of the Anderson Group and Cercei became penniless.
And Hilla, who was going to be a widow in Cercei’s perspective, now stood in front of her nobly.
No one in River City would have thought that Bruce would wake up. For the Anderson family, marrying a daughter-in-law was marrying a nanny.
In the end, they were taken aback. Bruce had not only woken up a few months later, but he had also regained control of the entire Anderson family. Hilla was the Young
Mistress of the Anderson family.
Cercei was jealous, but she was not as angry as she used to be.
Over the past year, those days would only give Cercei a thought now. She wanted to start over and she had to survive.
As she thought about this, Cercei tightened her grip on the ticket in her hand.
River City was a memory for Cercei. She will live a better life.
"Luck is also a kind of strength. When you get to Pinecastle, you’d better put in more effort to study. Otherwise, I’ll probably beat you in this lifetime."
With that, Hilla handed over a business card. "When you get there, find this guy. She will help you."
Cercei stared at Hilla blankly. With tears in her eyes, Cercei took the business card from Hilla. But Cercei still looked stubborn and arrogant.
"Although I’m not as lucky as you, you are married. I am afraid that you would not be able to design. I am different. I will soon surpass you and live the life that I want on my own."
"Yes, you will!"
Cercei pursed her lips and clenched the suitcase in her hand, "I’m leaving."
As Cercei walked past Hilla, Hilla saw that Cercei had tears on her face.
They all knew that all these years, they had been messing around with each other, but it was just the adult play between kids. More than a year of humble life made Cercei cherish what she could get now.
"Well, what is the quarrel between Queeney and you? It seems that she wants to use me to completely ruin your reputation. I knew that the embroidery on the clothes of the competition was unique to your Holt family. You ... watch your back!"
Then Cercei just pulled her luggage and walked quickly to the boarding gate.
Cercei was different from Hilla. Hilla had a different nostalgia in River City, and Cercei could only have a better life if she left.
Hilla watched Cercei walking further and further away until Cercei reached the boarding gate.
Orlenna, who was not far behind Hilla, slowly stepped forward and pulled Hilla’s hand, "Are you tired after standing for so long? Let’s go home."
Hilla came back to her senses and looked at Orlenna beside her with an obedient smile. She said in a low voice, "Thank you, Mom!"
Cercei was right. Hilla was indeed lucky. When Hilla thought she was at her worst, the Anderson family gave her another chance.
Hilla was supposed to be in the present situation with Cercei, but she finally
reversed her fate.
But no one knew how panicked Hilla was when she walked alone into the large strange castle-like house, dragging a suitcase.
Hilla only knew that it was the summer in August. That day when she walked on the stone road of the Anderson’s mansion, she only felt that the sunlight shining on her body was cold!
...
James entered Mr. Anderson’s office and quickly brought in three men behind him.
James said in a deep voice, "Mr. Anderson, Mr. Jorgansen is here."
Bruce sat on the sofa in the middle and responded softly. However, he only looked up indifferently and said, "Bring in three cups of coffee."
James quickly left. He carefully closed the door.
Bruce looked at Julian, but he did not stand up to greet him. He only said, "Have a seat!"
Julian did not mind. He directly sat down on the sofa opposite Bruce. There were two men behind him. One was slightly older and shorter, while the other was tall and energetic. They were both wearing glasses and looked strict and solemn. They looked very professional.
Bruce was not in a hurry to speak. He waited for James to bring the coffee in before saying, "Mr. Jorgansen, you have been in River City for many days and I haven’t thanked you yet."
As Bruce spoke, he looked up slightly and said with a cold and sharp gaze, "Margaret is studying at your company. I’m sorry if she bothered you."
"Brother, you regarded me as an outsider. This is what I should do."
Julian suddenly calling him "Brother" frightened Bruce. Bruce could not help but look up and stared at Julian.
Bruce seemed to be saying, "What’s wrong with you?"
Julian was not surprised at all. He calmly watched the older lawyer beside him placing the suitcase on the coffee table between them.
The suitcase wasn’t small, and it was a bit heavy. Bruce glanced at it and remained calm.
Bruce had reason to suspect that Julian had a bomb in the suitcase for him.
"This is all the property in my name, including the shares of the Jorgansen Group and some cash."
Julian calmly said under Bruce’s puzzled gaze, "I want to marry Margaret."
Bruce thought, "You wish!"
...
Bruce looked up. His gaze was bright. He stared at Julian calmly.
"Mr. Jorgansen. You want to marry Margaret?"
Bruce’s voice was steady and calm, but there was a kind of pressure that could not be ignored. This kind of aura flowed through the entire office, but Julian remained calm.
"Yes, I want to marry her!" Julian said firmly.
"Do you know Margaret is the apple of the Andersons’ eye?"
Bruce said. His deep voice gradually turned to be cold.
Julian nodded again. "I know. I asked the lawyer to count my assets in a week."
Bruce’s gaze swept over the suitcase on the coffee table in front of him. He smiled, but his gaze was still steady as he said, "So Mr. Jorgansen wants to be an Andersons."
The status of the Jorgansens could match the Andersons. Moreover, Julian was now in charge of the entire Jorgansen Group. If he became the master of the Jorgansens, he was qualified to marry Margaret.
However, being qualified was one thing, and whether the Andersons were willing to marry their girl to him was another thing.
Bruce’s words of ’be an Andersons’ indeed carried ridicule meaning.
The Jorgansens’ assets were abundant. Julian was an excellent young man. However, the Anderson family was rich. The action of Julian was sincere.
When Julian heard this request, he was stunned for a moment.
He was the president of the Jorgansen Group. How could he be an Andersons?
Wouldn’t that be a joke?
For a moment, Julian was surprised. Soon, he calmed down. "I accept it if it’s necessary."
This time, it was Bruce’s turn to be surprised. Looking at Julian, he narrowed his eyes.
They sat opposite. The atmosphere of the entire office became tense.
The President of the Jorgansens had agreed to become a son-in-law who married into and lived with his brides’ family. This kind of topic made people feel that there must be inside information about rich families.
What a drama topic! It sounded exciting.
But Bruce had a cold expression, while the other was calm and composed.
"I’m afraid that it’s early for you to agree."
Bruce sneered. He looked down, but his aura became stronger. The invisible pressure made the two lawyers opposite him feel nervous.
The lower his voice was, the more pressing it made people feel.
It was as if in this huge office, only the tiny sofa in the room was the place where people can breathe.
The tension became stronger in the office. But they were sitting calmly, as if nothing had happened.
They looked at each other calmly, as if it was a pleasant negotiation.
"It wasn’t early. A week ago, Margaret had reminded me to tell you this. We met in a hurry, so I didn’t tell you."
It was an excuse. When they met at the hotel, the scenario was awkward. Bruce was furious. His sister came out of the hotel with a naked man. How could he smilingly shake hands with him?
Bruce looked at him coldly. He was dissatisfied with Julian mentioning that day.
However, his words made Bruce realize that there was something strange. It was all Margaret’s plan.
Well...well! In the future, he finally didn’t need to give her pocket money.
"Since it’s Margaret’s idea, I’ll ask her when she comes back."
Bruce said in a low voice. His gaze meant that he wanted to chase Julian away.
He had known what the Jorgansens meant. Julian showed his respect to the Andersons. Naturally, his attitude would be better.
"Margaret is not in River City?"
She ran away again!
Bruce replied indifferently, "She said that she wants some fresh air in the countryside. You can go there too. But personal feelings might be different. The air in the countryside might not be fresh for you."
As soon as Bruce finished speaking, Julian nodded. He thought, "It makes sense."
Then another lawyer took out an agreement.
"If you agree, please accept the gifts."
Julian used all of his assets as gifts to the Andersons.
Bruce glanced at the thing in front of him, and he said coldly, "Mr. Jorgansen has resigned from the Jorgansen Group. If you become an Andersons, it looks like you have been wronged."
After saying that, Bruce pushed the agreement back. The smile on his face instantly disappeared and he said seriously, "Mr. Jorgansen, let’s talk in a tacky way."
Julian smiled and said, "We could realize win-win cooperation by the marriage of me and Margaret."
Bruce looked up and said, "Sure!"
...
Margaret had lived in the countryside for a week. Unlike the relaxation and tossing she had felt the last time she came, Margaret seemed to have been sucked out of vitality and became weak this time.
Having been here for a week, she didn’t take a step out of her studio. Halle was shocked about this.
She suspected that Margaret was suffering from depression.
Halle heard that the man who came out of the hotel room with Margaret was Julian.
In fact, she was surprised and there was a strange feeling in her mind.
She had once thought that Julian liked Hilla. He and Hilla should be together in the future. Although the Jorgansens at that time was complicated, she indeed had this kind of thought.
However, she didn’t expect that Hilla would marry into the Anderson family. At first, she was angry and distressed, but later she was relieved. Now, she had to thank the Andersons.
The Andersons did help her and Hilla. Hilla was the daughter-in- law of the Andersons, so she had to be thankful. Therefore, she unconsciously treated Margaret as her sister.
"Are you not feeling well today? If you are tired, go back to your room and have a rest. These works are not urgent. I can do it myself."
Margaret said that she was here to help her, but in fact, she had not made a button yet.
Seeing this, Halle thought that maybe she had a load on her mind.
Margaret put down the tangled rope in her hand. She nodded and said, "I’ll go upstairs."
As soon as she stepped out of the studio, she heard a dog barking outside. Stella ran in and smiled at Margaret with a flushed face. She said, "Margaret, a gentleman is looking for you."
A gentleman was looking for her?
Margaret frowned and thought, "Did Orlenna send William to bring her back?"
Should she pretend that she was not here?
Julian did not realize that he had fallen in love with Margaret. Margaret’s identity was special. They were seen by Bruce in the hotel room, and he did not wear any clothes. If he said that he and Margaret were just friends, the Andersons would definitely not believe it. He had to explain it to the Andersons. Marriage was the most perfect
solution he had found.
