Chapter 149


    "Who are you?"


    Lillian Ford had originally called Anthony Hond in hopes that he could think of a way to save Skr.


    However, Linda''s sweet voice sounded like a threat to her. She could feel that Linda was charming


    even through the phone.


    "Mrs. Hond, I''m President Hond''s secretary. I just introduced myself..."


    Linda felt weirdly annoyed because she was not expecting to be questioned like this.


    However, she was a neer. No one had told her that Anthony''s wife was a person with cells of


    jealousy all over her body. It seemed that even her imagination was borderless.


    "How long have you been working with my husband?"


    Lillian asked.


    "It''s just been half a year."


    Linda meant that she had just been the president''s secretary for half a year. However, she did not


    expect that Lillian would bend her words at her will.


    "Huh, half a year? What did you do to my husband?"


    Lillian knew that it was bad for her to suspect thedy without evidence. However, what would a man


    ask from his female secretary if not for her unofficial service?


    In the TV series, the boss and his secretary would go on business trips together. On the surface, they


    would register for two separate rooms, but they would rendezvous in the evening, perhaps on the bed.


    Linda seemed to understand what Lillian was implying. She exined, "Mrs. Hond, I think that you''re


    misunderstanding something. I am only President Hond''s secretary. My job scope is mainly to help


    President Hond with his meeting materials and schedule."


    Being a secretary herself, Linda knew that a president''s wife would eventuallye to suspect her.


    Thus, Linda told Lillian about her work in detail, hoping that she could resolve the misunderstanding.


    "What did you say? Did you just say that your job is to help my husband with his meeting materials?"


    Lillian raised her voice.


    "Yes."


    "You just said that my husband is in a meeting. Then, aren''t you supposed to sort out the meeting


    materials? Why are you on the phone now then? Do you think I''m easy to fool?"


    Anthony had always been indifferent to her, but it was exacerbated in recent years with his tant


    neglection.


    Lillian thought that Anthony must be having an affair. However, she didn''t care about it as long as


    Anthony would give her money, and that she could live her life freely in luxury. However, now that she


    had caught Linda red-handed on the phone, she had to exercise the power of a president''s wife.


    "No, Mrs. Hond, I left the meeting to print the materials and I answered your call when I heard it


    ringing."


    Linda was also stunned.


    "Stop lying. You said that you are a secretary, but in fact, you''re seducing my husband!"


    Lillian was already anxious about the issues befalling Skr. Now, Linda had inadvertently be her


    target to vent her anger on. She was not going to let such an opportunity slip her by.


    "Mrs. Hond, please wait for a moment. I''ll ask for President Hond right now."


    Tears welled up in her eyes. Linda was young and inexperienced. She put the phone aside and entered


    the meeting room without hesitation despite Anthony being in a meeting.


    "What''s going on? Where''s the material?"


    When he saw Linda entering the meeting room empty-handedly, his face darkened.


    "President Hond, your wife is on the phone. Would you like to answer the call?"


    Linda''s eyes were red, and there was a strong nasal sound in her voice. It was obvious that she had


    been wronged.


    As soon as Anthony saw her like this, he could take a good guess at what had happened.


    After all, Anthony knew Lillian very well. She must have heard that he had hired a female secretary and


    assumed that he had an affair with Linda. She must have made things difficult for her.


    "Alright. Everyone, give me a minute."


    Anthony went out to answer the phone with a cold face.


    After venting her uncontroble anger on Linda, Lilian had finally calmed down. It crossed her mind that


    if Linda was really honest about her job as a secretary, Anthony would definitely scold her. Now, she


    was regretting her harsh and impulsive action.


    In less than two minutes, Anthony had walked to his office and picked up the phone.


    "Hello."


    Anthony said coldly.


    "Honey, it''s me."


    Lillian''s heart tightened when she heard Anthony''s voice and she softened her voice.


    "What''s the matter?"


    Lillian must have had too much time on her hands these years. She did nothing apart from ying


    poker and shopping. Besides, her figure had also changed for the worse. As years passed, Anthony''s


    love for Lillian had also ttened into nothing.


    All that was left was just a marriage certificate.


    Therefore, Anthony showed a cold attitude towards Lillian and talked to her with disregard. He didn''t


    bother to exin about Linda.


    "Honey, I know that you''re busy. You know me. I wouldn''t have called you if there''s nothing serious."


    "I''ve given you your monthly allowance."


    That was the first sentence that Anthony threw at her.


    For Anthony, the serious thing for Lillian was none other than her inadequate allowance.


    "No, I have enough money. If it''s not enough, I wouldn''t have called you in such a hurry too." Lillian


    paused and said, "Skr is in jail."


    "What?"


    Anthony''s attitude changed when he heard this.


    If it was about Lillian, Anthony would not be interested at all. However, it was different when it came to


    Skr. After all, he was Anthony''s pride.


    How could this be possible!


    "I don''t know what''s going on. Today, the police went to Skyton Corporation and took Skr away. Just


    now, the police came by the house and searched for evidence."


    "Do you not know what''s going on?"


    "I did hear about it. They said..."


    Lillian told him everything that happened to Skr and what the news had reported.


    Anthony''s expression hardened.


    "This is absurd. Who framed him?"


    Anthony thought that someone must have framed Skr.


    After all, he had witnessed Skr''s talent in the business and there was no need for Skr to use evil


    means.


    "Who knows? I don''t even know if Skr had acted impulsively. Anyway, you shoulde back and


    solve this matter."


    Skr was Lillian''s precious son. How could she let him go to jail?

    After all, she used to brag about Skr in front of others. If he were to be sentenced to prison, those


    people whom she had ridiculed before woulde back andugh in her face now.


    "I''ll look into it. If he can''t solve such a trivial matter, then he wouldn''t be able to step foot in the


    business world anymore."


    In Anthony''s opinion, this was not a big deal.


    Although he had been abroad all these years, he still had a good grasp of Skr''s every move. He


    hadn''te across anyone who would want to harm Skr. He hadn''t expected for this matter to


    happen.
