Chapter 114 Adopt a Child
Suddenly, a message notification popped up. It read, ‘Vania, Richmond Hotel, Room 808, hurry.’
Hanson grabbed his suit jacket without a second thought and dashed to said location upon seeing Vania’s name.
He caught the familiar rose perfume as soon as he reached Room 808. However, he didn’t charge in, pausing before pushing the door open to find the massive bed carpeted with fresh rose petals.
Right then, a woman in a red silk nightgown was lying in the middle of it.
Her shapely figure and delicate makeup had her side profile looking a lot like Vania.
Anyone unfamiliar with her wouldn’t be able to tell under the dim lighting and enchanting perfume.
However, Hanson got what was going on at first glance, smirking coldly. “This old trick again? What, did you think nothing would happen to you after being bailed?”
Melanie couldn’t believe Hanson saw through her so quickly despite having made all the necessary preparations.
How can this be? Didn’t Mom say men will be charmed right after they smell this perfume?! Why is Hanson still so awake?! She reeled in bed.
At that, she hurriedly pleaded, fearing he would walk out. “I’m sorry, Hanson. I didn’t mean to. There’s nothing else I could do. Please save Greyson Realty!”
“You should already consider yourselves lucky that I haven’t done anything,” he said, voice devoided of all emotions.
At that, Melanie staggered toward Hanson, blocking his path. “You wouldn’t have come if I didn’t bring up Vania, would you? Is she that important to you?”
However, he didn’t even spare her a glance, his face frosty as though he had encountered something revolting.
Melanie knew that look, for it was one of abhorrence.
She smiled bitterly and spoke while shaking her head. “Well, do you know she slept around with men five years ago and got pregnant from it?”
Frost laced Hanson’s eyes upon that, and he shot her an intimidating glare.
It instantly made her weak at the knees, regretting saying what she had in a fit of pique.
Things would be a whole lot more troublesome if Hanson dug into it and brought it to light!
Then again, Hanson long knew Vania had children, so he didn’t think much about Melanie’s taunt.
However, he still warned, “You’d better not court death.”
She dropped to the floor in fright, helplessly watching as Hanson passed by her and leave.
Do I still have a chance?
…
After safely landing in Eastland, Vania, Henry, and Leo dashed to the car that Galaxy Corporation had prepared for them.
Leo drove away as soon as he set the GPS to the address Wesley had given them.
It wasn’t far from the city, and it was an hour’s drive at most. Still, the location was considered in the suburbs.
Vania didn’t bring the topic up on the plane as there were many strangers.
Now that she was much calmer, she asked, “Did you guys manage to get the details?”
Henry nodded in response. “We did. This family bought Little Master from a trafficker. The family used to be well off. The couple operated a small factory and lived a wealthy life, but no matter what they did and how much they spent, they just couldn’t bear a child despite being married for years. As they grew old and could no longer conceive, they began considering adopting a child.”
