Chapter 60 Fish on


    The atmosphere in the car became a bit awkward because of what Hanna just said. Her eyes were


    fixed on Ben''s face because she didn''t know where else she could look.


    Hanna didn''t know what has got into her. She didn''t know why she felt so annoyed and messy.


    Ben put one hand on the steering wheel and unbuttoned the button on his neck. Hanna could see his


    big and tough Adam''s apple. His fair hands were manipting the steering wheel slowly, which looked


    so sexy.


    “Maybe”


    The answer was simple, and even Ben wasn''t sure if that was final.


    Whether they would divorce or not highly depended on their kid.


    That was his biggest concern.


    Hanna took a deep breath and said with a forced smile, “I was just asking. I know you have a kid, and


    you should always consider him first.”


    “I know” Ben sounded cold. Hanna didn''t know how he felt about this.


    She didn''t know how to express herself to him because her mind was messy, too. She wasn''t sure if


    this was a proper chance to have the chat with Ben, so she stopped talking.


    Ben sent her back to thepany. Before the car approached thepany, they saw from afar that


    the front door of thepany is crowded with people.


    Many of those people were reporters carrying various equipment. They turned over and rushed to the


    car as soon as they saw Hanna was inside.


    Hanna squeezed the purse in her hand. She panicked and gasped in desperation.


    Her artpany was jointly established by her and others. Those people werepletely provoked


    after udia sold thepany to save the old house of the Evans. The shareholders wanted to


    withdraw their capital and let Hanna deal with this mess on her own.


    Hanna had been afraid of going to thepany in the past few days, but Ben was here with her today.


    The Crawford Group had the intention to make up for her loss, but the damage had already been done.


    Thepany is at risk now. Maybe their amendments would end up in vain.


    Public opinion was fierce. As soon as the news spread out, Hanna''s name was all over Twitter.


    Journalists rushed to interview and report her artpany.


    She sat in the car, frowning, looking so anxious.


    “Do you need me toe?” Ben whispered to her with his husky voice. Hanna looked aside and their


    gazes collided with each other.


    She stared at him and found his eyes were as deep as an ancient deep pool. They were so


    unpredictable and distant. She thought for a while, shook her head, and said, “No, I can do this on my


    own.”


    As she spoke, she got out of the car.


    As soon as she got out of the car, she was surrounded by countless reporters. They kept pointing


    microphones at him and ask all kinds of questions. They were like vampires craving blood.


    “Miss Lewis, rumors had it that you sold yourpany for the old house of the Evans. It looked like you


    did it for your friend, but you have done it for someone you love, is that so?”


    “Could that be a confirmation of your rumor with Mr. Crawford? It was said he''s going through a divorce


    recently, does that has anything to do with you?”


    “Please tell us more! What''s your role in Mr. Crawford''s marriage? Is it true that you, his ex, have now


    be the third party?”


    These journalists were all very experienced. Hanna was a businesswoman who had been through


    enough ups and downs, the only way to let her crack was to provoke her with extreme words. That


    way, that would have the perfect material for tomorrow''s headlines.


    Hanna knew their little tricks, and she wouldn''t bite the lure. She remained calm and responded, “I''m


    sorry. I''m not a public figure. It''s my personal life, so noment.”


    Then her assistant and secretary, as well as thepany''s security guards started to drove the


    journalists away. She passed by those people and walked into thepany.


    She walked through the corridor and got into the elevator. The door closed and sent her to the top floor.


    As she walked into her office, she felt her palm had been soaked with cold sweats.


    It would be a disaster for ordinary people if they became the public focus because their rtionships


    and business secrets were exposed.


    She took a deep breath and sat on her chair. Then she rubbed her forehead with her fingertips. There


    was moreplexity in her beautiful eyes than ever.


    Hanna lost a great fortune after she bid the old house. While she was being harassed by the media,


    udia and Ben''s silent treatment was also going on.


    The next week felt as long as a century.


    udia missed her son and her mom.


    They were the only two-person who were connected with her by bloodline. Being unable to see them


    for so long made her heart hurt. She felt so depressed, but she had no one to talk to.


    Just by then, her phone rang.


    Usually, it would be Kim, but this time, udia looked at a different name on the screen, her eyes


    looking a bit cold.


    When the phone was connected, she heard a woman''s coquettish voice on the other side. The woman


    asked with an arrogant attitude, “You must be missing your mom.”


    It was Amber. Her words stabbed udia''s heart like spiky thorns. udia was a bit surprised and


    wondered why Amber call her.


    “I''m sorry for having not taken care of you as your sister for all these years. I can arrange a meeting for


    you and your mom, but you have to do me a favor first!” Amber requested the other side of the phone.


    udia frowned upon hearing that.


    “Don''t worry, it''s a piece of cake for you. I knew you are a born musician. We had a banquet this


    afternoon. Why don''t youe over and y a few pieces? I''ll take you to the nursing home as long as


    you y it well.”


    udia was stunned as soon as she heard that.


    “Send me a message if you agree, and it''s OK if you don''t want to go. I''m here to help. Don''t be such a


    stupid and ungrateful fool.”


    Amber snorted again and hang up the phone.


    udia gripped her phone and considered it for a long while. ying a few pieces was more than easy


    for her, and it wouldn''t be a good idea if she could meet her mother after that.


    On the other side of the city, ir was furiously scolding Amber who was sitting on the sofa, “Who told


    you to make that decision? Ann is why we can have udia under control. I told you never to let them


    meet unless we got the CCM project!”


    “Don''t worry, mom. Just leave her to me, I would only wish her to be more miserable.”


    As she said that, her phone buzzed. It was a text from udia. Amber grinned a contemptuous smile.

    Then she shook her phone and said to ir, “Fish on, mom! The show is on!”
