Chapter 1616
Soon, the news that I became the representative of the Granger Group spread via the media
throughout the city in no time.
I thought GW Group woulde to me, but Hendrix was the first to appear.
At ten o''clock in the morning, he, who was supposed to deal with the affairs in thepany,
suddenly returned home and directly crashed the door of the study open.
At that time, I was having a meeting with the shareholders of Granger Group on myputer.
When the door opened, I turned my head and nced at him. Then, as if nothing had happened, I
continued my meeting on theputer. "Let''s proceed."
However, Hendrix obviously could not stand being ignored. He strode over and turned off the
computer screen.
I lowered my gaze and was silent for a long time before I raised my head and looked at him coldly.
"What are you doing?"
"I should be the one asking this." Hendrix''s attitude was not much better than mine. "Do you know
that you''re pregnant now? Why did you promise to take
over Irvin''s affairs?"
The more he spoke, the more agitated he became. He paused and ced his hands on his hips,
seeming perturbed. "Did Irvine to see you again? You guys have met again, haven''t you? What
did he tell you? Speak!"
That was not the first time I had to face Hendrix''s rage. I gritted my teeth and tried not to show my
cowardice. "This has nothing to do with Irvin. I was the one who took the initiative to look for him. If I
owe him something, I have to return it. This is the rule."Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org.
I dared not look at him for fear of being seen through by him.
"Bullsh*t!" It was scarce for Hendrix to be so rude. He anxiously paced back and forth in the room
and said, "We made a deal. Roberts Group will help him if you don''t interfere in his affairs. Now that
you have everything on you, what do you want? Do you want to force me topromise?"
I snorted and thought that it was too ironic. He pushed Irvin further into the fire pit when Irvin saved
me, his wife. I merely took Irvin''s ce and stood on the opposite side of Roberts Group. How could
he be so irritated?
I didn''t want to criticize businessmen''s tactics, nor did I want to force Hendrix into epting my
perspective of morals. But no matter what, I couldn''t stand by and watch Granger Group
experiencing a downfall.
"I said that I wouldn''t meet Irvin before giving birth. I didn''t go back on my words. We talked about
the handover over the phone, so strictly speaking, I didn''t go against our promise. Besides, I stayed
at home, so you don''t have to worry about me. Are you not satisfied?" Hendrix taught me to argue
with others. Even if he had any objection, he should be angry with himself.
"Arianna..."
I could sense Hendrix gnashing his teeth. I knew how scary he could be when he was enraged, but
I had to pretend to be calm and uttered, "The announcement has been issued. Everyone knows that
I''m Irvin''s representative, and it''s toote to turn back. Now our identities are special, so for
everyone''s sake, we''d better not get in touch during this period of time."
I turned around and scrutinized Hendrix with a cold expression. "I''ve asked Madam Parker to clean
up a room in the backyard. I''ll invite a professionalwyer to stay over. Before the acquisition case
ispleted, I''ll avoid you."
As soon as I finished speaking, Hendrix''s facepletely darkened. He was silent for nearly a
minute before he voiced out.
"Do you have to do this?" His tone was icy and terrifying.
I withdrew my gaze and put my hands on the table with my head lowered. "I used to work in
Granger Group, and I''ll get the hang of this easily. Don''t worry. I know that I''ll be tired. But I''m
satisfied that I can help Irvin in my own way. Even if I''m exhausted to the point of identally falling
asleep, at least I''m more at ease than before."
These were all words from the bottom of my heart.
