Chapter 223 Bear With It
As Melanie looked at the photo, she gritted her teeth and said bitterly, “That b*tch Vania always acts pure and innocent, but isn’t she showing her true nature in front of Hanson?”
Upon hearing Melanie’s resentful tone, Josie asked worriedly, “What happened this time?”
“See for yourself,” Melanie snapped and tossed her phone out.
When Josie picked up the phone and looked at the photo, she growled, “Vania Greyson, she really does have a way with men.”
“Mom, what do you think we should do now?” Melanie was at sixes and sevens, entirely overwhelmed with fury.
Josie was also unwilling to fall behind. But ever since the trial, many people around them and on the internet had been keeping their eye on them, so they might be caught if they weren’t careful. Then, they might never have another chance in the future.
Hence, she suppressed her anger and persuaded Melanie, “Right now, we can only lie low and wait for an opportunity. Although the rumors on the internet have disappeared now, and Hanson isn’t tracking it down, it doesn’t mean that he didn’t see it. So, we must be more careful lest he shifts his focus to us. If that happens, we’ll be in constant trouble.”
Melanie was dissatisfied by that answer. “Of course I know that, but until when do we have to wait? Do I have to keep watching Vania and Hanson being together like this? Is there no other way but to endure now?”
Josie shook her head. “The time is not right yet. We have to be patient and avoid being anxious so that all of our hard work wouldn’t be wasted.”
Melanie really couldn’t accept the fact that she always had to hold everything in. She smashed her phone again for the umpteenth time during the past few weeks.

Early in the morning at Luke Corporation, the person in charge of the advertising department held the samples that were made in a hurry overnight at the company meeting early in the morning and said respectfully to Hanson, “President Luke, this is the sample from the expedited production. Please have a look.”
Hanson opened the file and browsed all the contents before ordering, “Early tomorrow morning. I want to see the advertisement released.”
Early tomorrow morning? So soon? It was the first time that the person in charge of the advertising department had to accept such an urgent job.
However, as Hanson had already spoken, they did not dare to refuse and immediately accepted. “Yes, President Luke. I will arrange for the staff to work overtime immediately. The finished product will be completed by tomorrow morning.”
Hanson nodded, not forgetting to add a reminder. “Pay attention to the quality.”
How could he allow his and Vania’s first advertisement to be shoddy?
“Yes, I will definitely give you a perfect advertisement, President Luke.”
The person in charge of the advertising department had already tooted his own horn, so he could only let all employees in his department work overtime overnight. Sure enough, before the morning meeting, the draft for the advertisement was completed. Early in the morning, before Hanson arrived at the office, the person in charge of the advertising department was already waiting at his door. Judging from his bloodshot eyes, it was clear that he hadn’t slept all night. And looking at the unchanged clothes he was wearing from yesterday, it was even more obvious that he’d worked overnight in the company.
Upon seeing Hanson arrive at the company, he immediately stepped forward and said, “President Luke, the advertisement has been completed as per your request.”
Hanson nodded, not giving him any more trouble as he said, “Work together with the other departments, and it can be released after that.”
“Yes, I’ll work on it this instant.”
Before Hanson entered his office, he stopped and added, “Also, your department has worked hard during these past few days. I’ll double your bonus for this month, so go and retrieve it from the finance department.”
