Chapter 828
He''s always acting so secretive after all, Yvonne thought.
This was the first time Thomas had ever seen his sister with those eyes. It was as though Yvonne
was scrutinizing his every word. Upon his sister''s question, his hand that was holding the teacup
stopped briefly as he turned his eyes to meet the change in his sister''s eyes. "Naturally, I have a few
secrets of my own." Although he went along with her questioning, the seeds of doubt had already
been nted in him. He couldn''t recall when was thest time his sister showed that much interest
in his daily ns. Furthermore, she was taking up an unfriendly tone with him. It was at this moment
that he finally realized Yvonne had changed.
Just then, Yvonne sat beside him and poured herself a cup of tea as well. "It''s natural for you to
have some secrets of your own, but you wouldn''t be scheming against me, right?"
"What are you talking about? When have I ever schemed against you?" He looked at her in disbelief
and wondered just why she had such a thought.
Yvonne chuckled. "Why are you so nervous? It was just a casual remark." Yet, her gaze that was
locked on him grew intense, as though she wanted to peer deep into his mind.
Nheless, Thomas was a man of standing as well, so he wasn''t afraid of the pressure Yvonne''s
gaze was giving. "Don''t joke around like that anymore."
"Okay," Yvonne replied obediently. However, she had other ideas in mind.
Meanwhile, Vania had already long forgotten what Hanson had told her, as she had been walking
around with her own two legs the entire day. One could say that it was as though Hanson had never
told her at all in the first ce. Nevertheless, Hanson, who was far away back in the offices of Luke
Corporation, had already caught wind of her actions. At the moment, the man was stroking his chin
as he thought of the punishments he was preparing for her tonight. On the other hand, the about-to-
be victim hadn''t the slightest clue of the danger that was soon to befell her, as she only continued to
walk around her office in joy.
Hanson had intentionally arrived at Vania''s office thirty minutes just before the end of working hours
to catch Vania red-handed. Just as expected, she was strutting around the office packing her things
up without even realizing that her husband was already in the monitor room observing her every
move.
Beside the man, Linda said nervously, "President Luke…"
"She''s been like this the whole day?" Although Hanson posed it as a question, his tone had told her
that he was certain that to be the truth. After all, he already knew everything.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
Hence, Linda could only answer honestly after observing the man''s expression with a ''Yes.''
Immediately, Hanson snorted loudly in indignation before he left for Vania''s office.
When Vania saw her office doors open so abruptly, her expression darkened as she wanted to
reprimand the staff for theirck of manners. However, upon seeing that it was Hanson, she froze.
O-Out of nowhere?
At the moment, she was walking toward the center of the office with her stuff in hand, so she didn''t
know whether she should go to sit or continue standing. Regardless, there wasn''t any ce for her
to sit since she didn''t make any in the first ce.
Thus, she could only stand awkwardly in ce before she suddenly lifted one of her legs. Her
current n, after a brief moment of pondering, was to convince Hanson that she had been hopping
around instead. So, with a smile on her face, she said, "Darling, why are you here so early?" If one
were to carefully listen to her, one could easily tell she was employing ingratiation in her tone.
However, Hanson sneered and looked at her with his eyebrows raised. "Darling, did you hop around
by yourself?"
"Mm-hmm." She quickly nodded. That was what she wanted to convey.
Even so, he was having none of it. "Oh? Can you show me how you hop back to your desk, then?"
Speechless at the man''s words, she thought, This man is growing nastier now. To test me on my
words.
