Chapter 18: Asking for Help
"From what Manager Watson said, if the project leader is not Katherine, the cooperation will be
terminated."
At the critical moment, the beautiful secretary explained.
Ewan suddenly realized it, then his face darkened. Something big happened.
When he just returned to the company, Maggie walked towards him, "Didn't you go to receive Manager
Watson? He didn't come?"
"Something happened."
"What do you mean?"
Ewan gritted his teeth and said, "Sidney just came over and wanted to see Katherine. He also said that
he would terminate the cooperation and bid for another bid!"
"How can it be!"
Maggie was also anxious, and asked, "What should we do then? Do we have to let Katherine come
back? We finally drove her away, but now we have to invite her back again? I can't do it!"
"Do you think I want to do it?" Ewan was in utter despair.
At this moment, Old Lady Hunt came from outside, "What are you doing here? Don't you say that
Manager Watson is coming? When will he arrive?"
"Grandma, that..."
Old Lady Hunt felt something was wrong and shouted, "Tell me what's going on. Have you offended NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Manager Watson?"
Ewan shivered in fright. He replied with a sad face, "Grandma, I don't know what tricks Katherine used.
Sidney heard that the person in charge has changed. He said he would terminate the cooperation!"
"What!"
Old Lady Hunt's face looked terrible, "Come to the meeting room!"
Bang!
As soon as they arrived in the meeting room, Old Lady Hunt patted the table fiercely and shouted
angrily, "Ewan, see what you are doing!"
"Grandma, what does this have to do with me..."
"Shut up! Do you really think I'm a fool? It is rumored that Katherine slept with Sidney. Dare you say
that it was not you who made it? Isn't it just for the position of the person in charge?"
Ewan shrank his neck and held his breathe.
"I've given you the position. But you! Useless!"
Seeing his son being reprimanded, Lewis stood up and said, "Mom, calm down. The contract has been
signed. It's not up to Sidney to call the shots. If the cooperation is terminated, he has to pay for 30
million!"
"You’re still thinking about liquidated damages. You idiots. What is the background of Chengyu Group?
It can take root in J City overnight and win the core plot of Binhu District. The big boss behind it is so
powerful. Even if Sidney puts 30 million in front of you, do you dare to take it? Don't you want to live
anymore?"
Lewis was silent for a while.
In the meeting room, everyone in the Hunt Family knew the seriousness of the situation.
"Ewan, no matter what method you use, you immediately let Katherine come back to take over the
project. Otherwise, you and Maggie will get out of the Hunt Family!"
Suddenly, Ewan's and Maggie's faces turned pale.
After finishing speaking, Old Lady Hunt left the meeting room angrily.
"Dad, what should I do?"
Lewis lit a cigarette, frowning and said, "What else can we do? Call Katherine and ask her to come
back quickly."
"I'm really unwilling!" Maggie was irritated.
"Sidney's so protective of Katherine just shows that the two of them indeed had an affair. This bitch!"
Ewan was so unwilling.
However, thinking of the terrible consequences, he could only make a call.
After a few beeps, a voice came from the other end, "Hey, who is it?"
"Charlie, let Katherine answer the phone."
"Katherine was under a lot of pressure. She went to see the doctor just now. The doctor said she needs
a good rest. She can’t play with her mobile phone these days.
"Damn...Hey, Charlie!"
Ewan angrily smashed the phone into pieces, "Damn it, this trash dared to hang up my phone. Dare
he!"
"Katherine is asking us to invite her back in person." Lewis's face was cold.
Maggie said, "Uncle, what did you say? We’ll go to invite her back personally? Who does she think she
is? What qualifications does that woman have?"
"Then you want to get out of the Hunt Family?!"
"I…"
Maggie bit her red lips and felt aggrieved.
Half an hour later, in front of the dilapidated community.
"It's really dirty. It's just a slum. I wouldn't come here if I were not worried about punishment."
Maggie was full of disgust, keeping muttering.
When they came to Katherine's house, Charlie opened the door.
Ewan immediately became angry and hit to Charlie's chin with a fist, while shouting, "You trash, dare to
hang up my phone, right?"
Charlie looked indifferent. Then he kicked Ewan's abdomen so fast.
"Ouch!"
Ewan screamed while covering his stomach.
Maggie cursed, "Charlie, you dare to hurt him?"
"Since you go to beg us, you’d better to be polite. Or just get out of here immediately. In that case, you
should be punished very seriously!"
"You!" Maggie snorted coldly.
At this time, when Axel, Spencer and Isabella came back from outside, they were very surprised when
they saw Ewan.
"Maggie, why are you in my house?"
"When did you come back?" Maggie was surprised.
Isabella sneered and said, "You don't want me to come back? If I don’t come back, you will have no
competitors, right? Tell you, it’s me who can marry to the rich. You? Don’t fancy it!"
Maggie's heart tightened and guarded against Isabella.
Charlie explained, "Dad, Mom, they came to ask Katherine to go back to be the project leader. I heard
that Manager Watson was furious when he found out that the person in charge has changed."
"Really?"
Spencer laughed happily, "Haha, it won't work without Katherine. Ewan, you regret it, right? You finally
know how to beg others!"
Ewan's entire face turned into gloomy. He roared, "Ask Katherine to come out."
"It was you who drove my sister away, and now it’s you who wants my sister to go back. Ewan, who do
you think you are?" Isabella sneered mercilessly.
"Asshole, you dare to talk to me like this!"
"Tsk-tsk, you’re still so arrogant!"
Isabella sneered, "You're here to invite my sister back in person, which shows that Grandma is angry
and the consequences are very serious. Now it’s you who come here to beg us. Please be polite. We
don’t owe you anything. Go away. We don't welcome you!"
Charlie nodded.
Although Isabella was a little arrogant, she was very smart. She could see through the truth so soon.
Seeing Ewan's terrible face, Spencer felt very comfortable. She swept around and asked, "Charlie,
where is Katherine?"
"She feels bad and is resting in the room."
"What? She got sick? This is terrible." Spencer yelled and ran, Isabella and Axel following behind.
When she came to the room, she found that Katherine was safe and sound. Katherine was watching a
movie.
"Katherine, what are you..."
"Charlie asked me to do this." Katherine smiled.
Spencer was also a smart person, and immediately understood Charlie's intentions, "This brat is not
stupid this time. We finally can be proud this time. But you still have to go to the company. The time is
almost here. Come out with me!"
"Mom, Charlie said to listen to his arrangements. Without his notice, I don't need to go out."
Spencer squinted, "Do you listen to me or him? Katherine, I found that your relationship with Charlie is
getting better and better recently. Tell me honestly, are you in love with that trash?"
"Mom, don't call him trash. Charlie is very good!"
These words made Axel and his wife stunned.
Isabella held her forehead and sighed as she shook her head, "You're totally screwed up. You’re into
that wimp."
Spencer was furious and scolded, "You are brainless. He just does a little housework, but you are
moved. You can’t be so short-sighted!"
Katherine pursed her red lips, feeling very wronged. She said, "Mom, it's not what you think. We..."
"You tell me the truth. Did you have a sex?"
Katherine shook her head. Spencer breathed a sigh of relief, but her face still looked terrible. She said
seriously, "I warn you, if you dare to have sex with that wimp, I will break your leg."
"Mom, calm down."
Isabella was also frightened.
As for Axel, he had always been afraid of his wife. So now he didn’t dare to speak.
"The day when your Grandma is gone is the day when you and Charlie get divorce. I can't let you live
with that trash for a lifetime. You’re so beautiful. It's easy to find one who is better than him."
Katherine raised her head with a firm face, "Mom, I won't..."
"Squeak!"
Just then, the door of the room opened.
"What are you doing here?"
Seeing Charlie, Spencer got angry and glanced at the living room. She asked coldly, "Where are Ewan
and the others?"
"I let them leave!"
"What?" Isabella was stunned, "My sister hasn't gone to the company with them yet. Why did they
leave?"
Charlie said faintly, "I let them go back to tell Grandma. The decision maker for the change of the
person in charge is Grandma. Naturally, she has to make up for her mistake!"
Boom!
Axel and Spencer, including Isabella, felt unbelievable.
A few seconds later, Spencer screamed in horror, "You idiot. You actually let Mom come over and invite
Katherine back in person. Are you crazy?"
"Asshole, you are getting us into trouble!"
"OMG. I think I have to go abroad as soon as possible."
Charlie looked calm, "Mom, Dad, take it easy, listen to me. With such current situation, if Katherine
goes back to the company, her life will be hard. You all know there are some rumors outside."
"What the hell do you mean?"
"If you want Katherine to be comfortable in that position, we must get Grandma done. Do you want to
see that Katherine lives under the rumors and despised eyes of everyone?"
The room became quiet.
Spencer panted heavily, her voice trembling, "How are you sure that Old Lady Hunt will come? Do you
know how proud she is? How could she come to such a shit place?"
"She will come, for sure."
