She Has Three Little Treasures: Fake Heiress, Yet Captures The Tycoon's Heart-Chapter 998: Forced to Marry a Fat Woman?
Raina first used a sharp gaze to warn everyone, indicating that if anyone dared to talk nonsense in front of Old Mrs. Hawthorne, they would be done for.
Seeing that everyone obediently averted their gaze and continued eating quietly, she finally felt satisfied and looked at Old Mrs. Hawthorne, speaking gently, "Grandma, you don’t need to worry. Elias went to handle other matters, and it won’t be long before he comes to see you."
"Raina, are you saying Elias is back too?"
"Yes, he’s back too."
Hearing Raina’s definite answer, Old Mrs. Hawthorne instantly relaxed and didn’t ask much else.
She was getting old, couldn’t manage too many things anymore. She decided to leave other things to fate, as she just wanted to live a few quiet days.
After lunch, Raina left the Third Elder and the others at The Hawthorne Villa, then left with Pip Finch and Lune,
Having to bring Pip Finch was really unavoidable; this guy had no filter, and if he scared Old Mrs. Hawthorne with his nonsense, even if she scolded him to death, it wouldn’t help. So she had to keep Pip Finch by her side.
At this moment, in The Prosperity Apartments.
In the living room.
Aidan Lynch sat on the sofa, a laptop on his legs, his hands flying over the keyboard rapidly, continuously handling various matters.
Even though he was trying very hard, the situation was still getting worse by the day.
Everyone only saw the skyrocketing stock prices after Vincent Hawthorne took the stage, not knowing the huge crisis hidden behind it.
In front of such interests, friendships and ethics were thinner than paper.
Anya Forrest was also there, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window with a furrowed brow and a weary expression, gazing into the distance.
Jasper Hawthorne was pacing back and forth in the living room like a hyperactive husky, not stopping for even a second. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Aidan Lynch, who was constantly dealing with work, rubbed his aching temples and finally couldn’t bear it anymore, saying, "Second Young Master, can you sit still for a moment? Stop pacing around, it’s making me dizzy."
Hearing Aidan’s words, Jasper Hawthorne exploded like a firecracker, wildly scratching his messy hair, ranting like a mad emperor, "Damn! I’m about to be cleaned up by that bitch Susan Kensington, tied with a bow, and sent to a fat woman’s bed to be ravaged. Can I stay calm? Can I stop pacing? Can I? Can I? I can’t!"
Aidan twitched at the corner of his mouth, wanting to say, does pacing back and forth make Susan Kensington change her mind about not sending him to be ravaged in a fat woman’s bed?
If you can’t change the status quo, how does pacing help?
It doesn’t help at all.
However, Aidan didn’t voice any of this because he understood Jasper Hawthorne was upset with such a situation.
"Alright, alright, pace as you wish, it’s not like you’ll get many more opportunities like this in the future anyway."
Hearing the conversation between the two, Anya Forrest couldn’t help saying, "Actually, it doesn’t have to be this way; reality might not be so hopeless..."
Previously, she had talked on the phone with the Third Elder and knew that Raina was safe and sound.
Upon hearing this news, Anya Forrest immediately felt relieved, knowing that as long as Raina was unharmed, she would definitely return.
She knew Raina was capable and talented, and as long as she returned, she could stabilize the current situation.
"I also don’t want to be hopeless, but I have no choice." Thinking of how he was recently forced by that bitch Susan Kensington to go clubbing every night and party with girls, and now being forced into an arranged marriage with a she-devil, Jasper Hawthorne felt a deep sadness welling up in his heart.
