Chapter 228: Don''t Go There
“What? Aurora became the legal person of thepany?” Melody, who was talking on the phone,
asked in shock, and her face turned pale, “Did Tim go to thepany?”
“Yes,” the man on the other end of the line said.
“Is Mr. Mysterious really Tim?”
“It should be him. And he wanted to repay the debt to Estelle. The amount of the debt is more than
ten million dors! There are few people so rich and generous in Hadale. If Mr. Mysterious was not
Tim, who else could it be?”
Gritting her teeth, Melody said, “So, Tim helped Estelle solve the problem?”
“No, Estelle refused his help.”
“Is she out of her mind?!” Melody eximed in utter disbelief.
“I can’t say for certain what happened. While they were in the meeting room, I could only observe
from a distance and couldn’t hear their conversation clearly.”
“Then why was the legal person of thepany changed?” Melody hurriedly interrupted him and
asked. “Did Estelle cajole York into changing the legal person? Or did she take advantage of her
rtionship with Tim and force York to do that?”
“No. Mr. Grantham took several people to control Estelle. He went to the hospital and forced Aurora
to sign the agreement on changing the legal person. Now... maybe the relevant formalities have
beenpleted, and Aurora has be the legal person.”
“Is York crazy? It took him a lot of effort to get thepany. Why did he do such a thing? Where is
he now? I’m going to see him!”
“Mr. Grantham has gone abroad. His flight left an hour ago.”
Melody was speechless. “How did things be like this?”
“I have a guess...”
“Say it quickly!”
“The amount of debt isrge. If it can’t be paid back in time, thepany’s legal person will likely be
sued and face imprisonment. I guess that Mr. Grantham can’t repay the debt and doesn’t want to go
to jail, so he made Aurora a scapegoat.”
Hearing this, Melody regained herposure. Then she started thinking.
‘If that’s the case, it is not a bad thing to change thepany’s legal person.’
‘Aurora is not in good health. If she went to jail, she would probably die soon.’
‘As for Estelle, she is a divorced woman with two children. The Roberts family may not allow her to
marry Tim.’
‘I just need to drive a wedge between Tim and Estelle, just like what I did to Cristofer and her
before.’
‘Once Tim breaks up with her, she will have no one backing her up. And then I’ll have a chance to
get back to thepany again.’
“Mrs. Grantham, what should we do now?”
“You just need to work as usual in thepany and keep me in the loop if anything happens.”
“Okay.”
At this time, Gretchen went downstairs. “Mom, Tim didn’t pay the money for Estelle, right?” she
inquired immediately.
“No. But I feel that there is something wrong about it,” Melody said, her face darkening.
Hearing this, Gretchen said happily, “As long as Tim doesn’t provide financial support for Estelle,
she won’t be able to solve thepany’s cash problem. Then York won’t allow her to work in the
company. That’s just what we want, isn’t it?”
“But Aurora has be the legal person of thepany!” Melody said and red at Gretchen,
exasperated at her stupidity.

It was almost eight o’clock at night when the meeting was over.
When Estelle left thepany, she looked up at the starry sky and sighed.
York’s influence on thepany was much more serious than she had expected.
It was not until today that she knew that York had dismissed many experienced staff members who
had worked for her father for various reasons. Currently, most of the employees in thepany
were newly recruited by York these years.
York was a good-for-nothing, and the employees he had hired at high sries were all ipetentFrom N?velDrama.Org.
like him.
With these people working in thepany, it was not strange that thepany went downhill.
And if the Hudson Group and the Hans Group hadn’t merged into a big listedpany, they would
have gone bankrupt three years ago under York’s management.
‘You are off duty? I’m waiting for you at the cafe on the south side of thepany.’
After receiving the message from Mr. Mysterious, Estelle walked quickly to the cafe.
She was familiar with that cafe. It was a small cafe, but the coffee there tasted good.
In her student days, Cristofer often brought Estelle to this café as final exams approached, offering
guidance while they enjoyed a cup of coffee together. It was a routine that helped Estelle stay
refreshed and focused.
As Estelle reached the café, she noticed Mr. Mysterious standing beneath a streetmp just
outside. The light cast a long shadow of him onto the ground.
Leaning against themppost, lost in contemtion, Mr. Mysterious seemed absorbed in his
thoughts.
Approaching him, Estelle spoke softly, “Have you been waiting here for long?”
Hearing her voice, Mr. Mysterious wrenched his mind back to the present and gently touched her
face. “Are you tired?”
“No, I’m not tired.”
“Would you like some coffee? Let me buy you a cup of your favorite hazelnuttte.” Mr. Mysterious
suggested.
When he was about to walk toward the café, Estelle quickly pulled his arm. “No. Don’t go there.”
“What’s wrong?”
Estelle then looked around vigntly. After making sure that the owner of the café didn’t see them,
she pulled him and ran away quickly.
They didn’t stop until they had run a long way.
Being pulled by Estelle, Mr. Mysterious ran with her and couldn’t help smiling all the way.
“Sir, that café... Cristofer has taken me there many times, and the owner of the café knows us. If
you went in just now, she would mistake you for Cristofer. And if one day in the future Cristofer goes
to the café again and talks with her, he will know your existence and your identity will be exposed!”
Estelle exined to him.
Hearing this, Mr. Mysterious chuckled. Seeing her out of breath, he let her lean against his chest
and said, “Calm down and take deep breaths slowly.”
“Okay...”
Mr. Mysterious caressed her back to help her breathe smoothly and said, “Even if the owner of the
café mistakes me for Cristofer, it doesn’t matter. Maybe Cristofer won’te here again. He won’t
know about my existence.”
Estelle nodded, thinking that his words made sense.
‘Cristofer and I have got divorced, and he will start a new life. Maybe he will nevere back to
such a ce full of memories of our past.’
