Chapter 2597: Chapter 2606: She Never Liked You from the Start
Assistant Terrence escorted the two to the car at the company entrance, apologized sincerely to Mr. Hanson, and then left.
Once he left, the Hanson family’s driver quickly got out of the car to open the door for them, asking curiously, "President Hanson, why are you down so quickly? Is President Lawrence not here?"
Mr. Hanson didn’t answer him, his benevolent face filled with deep disappointment, and he looked at Wendy Hanson, "Wendy, why do you think we came down so fast?"
Wendy’s beautiful face turned pale, her mouth tight, not saying a word.
Mr. Hanson struck his cane heavily, speaking in distress, "What did you promise me before coming? And how did you act in the elevator just now! Interfering with how others run their company, is that your place? And didn’t you notice the look the special assistant gave you? He nearly spelled it out for you not to have unwarranted feelings. You’re at least the manager of EZ and my granddaughter; do you have no self-respect?"
"Grandpa, I’m sorry. I just couldn’t control myself." Wendy was extremely distressed, covering her face, with an embarrassed expression.
Mr. Hanson, determined to make her give up this time, suppressed his affection for her, cold-faced and extremely firm, "To have uncontrolled feelings for a married man, do you even know how to spell the word shame!"
Wendy couldn’t believe her ears, looked at him with wide eyes, murmuring, "Grandpa..."
Mr. Hanson avoided her gaze, expressionless, "Let me remind you once more, Baron Lawrence is already married. It’s not a business marriage; he married the woman he loves. Ms. Clark was born into the Habsden Family, nobler by birth. Moreover, she’s the only one in the third generation of the Habsden Family, and if the Duke of Habden doesn’t have children, she’s practically the heir of the Habsden Family!
The wealth of the Habsden Family, I don’t need to elaborate on. In terms of feelings, Baron Lawrence doesn’t like you. In terms of family background, you can’t match up to them. What are you basing your uncontrollable feelings on?"
These words were harsh, as sharp as a knife.
Only Mr. Hanson had the ability to speak so bluntly without giving her any face.
The driver stood aside with his eyes on his nose, acting like a stone person.
Wendy’s face turned blue, red, and then white, for quite a while before she opened her mouth, stepping forward, "But at the start, Brother Baron and I..."
They were supposed to be the ones getting married.
It was Enna Clark who stepped in while she was abroad for recovery.
Mr. Hanson knew what she was about to say, and seeing her still not giving up, his gaze turned sharper, cutting her off, "The Lawrence Family never favored you from the start!"
The Lawrence Family never favored you from the start!
Those words were firm, instantly choking Wendy into silence. Staggering backward in shock, with a disbelieving expression aimed at the cold Mr. Hanson, she murmured, "Impossible, Grandpa, you’re lying to me, how could it be..."
Her face was ashen, without a trace of blood, looking like a fragile flower swaying in the breeze, as if the wind might break it any moment.
Mr. Hanson felt heartache but still hardened his heart, revealing the secret he had been keeping from her, "Initially, I did have the intention of a business marriage, so I let you interact more with Baron. You happened to like Baron a lot and often went to pester him."
