Chapter 132: Elena receives threats
Elena thought Bess would withdraw the tell, but did not expect that she and her mother were the same. Elena lost her soul walking down the street, casually beckoned a cab and got in, to the car stopped, she realized that she had even said the address of the company, originally wanted to go back, but this will be to the downstairs of The Cloud Group, why not go in and see it.
“Designer Elena, are you not going in?” After all, having worked here for half a year, the security guard remembered her, and when he saw her standing here dazed, he came up and asked.
“I’m going in.” Elena mechanically entered the building, and the receptionist didn’t ask much, in fact, everyone had read about it in the newspaper that day and knew that in fact, Designer Elena was the real president’s wife.
“Hello, may I ask which department you are from?” The secretary was meeting Elena for the first time, and seeing her come to the top floor, she couldn’t help but be a little puzzled.
If she was not an employee of the company, she could not have come up here, and if she was an employee of the company, she was not wearing a uniform, and she had not heard any orders from the president.
“Is the president in, please?” Elena froze, since she was here, it was just as well to meet Fred, or to prepare Fred mentally.
“May I ask which department you are from?” The secretary heard Elena’s words and thought she was an employee of the company, so she added.
“Forget it, I’ll call him.” Elena said and took out the phone herself.
Fred was looking at the information sent by the detective agency and picked it up without looking at the number.
“Fred, are you in the office?”
“Honey, what’s wrong? Is there something wrong?” Hearing Elena’s voice a little strange, Fred hurriedly put down the information in his hands and asked with concern.
“I’ve arrived at the company, is it convenient to go up?” Elena looked at the door of the president’s office and said.
“Did the driver bring you here?” Fred’s first reaction was that Elena’s safety was at stake.
Elena was stunned, then remembered Fred’s explanation and whispered, “No, I’m alone, I had a little business out in the morning, then unknowingly arrived here.”
“Honey, I’m not ……”
“I know I’m wrong, but I’m so hungry right now, can you walk me to dinner, I’ll be right outside your office.” Elena knew Fred was going to lecture and then pouted.
“You-” Fred heard that Elena was right outside the office and walked out quickly, opening the door to see Elena holding the phone and smiling at her.
“Honey, didn’t I tell you that you must tell me first if you want to go out? You’re all alone, what if something happens?” Fred hung up the phone and pretended to be angry.
“I’ll remember next time, I was thinking about you too much today, so I forgot.” Elena smiled shyly and said carnally, although she had never tried it, but it was said on TV that it worked best for men to pamper women.
“You, what do you want to eat for lunch? Chinese or Western food?” Fred pinched Elena’s face, his heart only felt sweet, there is still weird meaning.
“Let’s have Chinese food, it’s not close yet, can you go?” Elena looked at her watch, it was still half an hour before he got off work.
“Work isn’t as important as your wife, you wait.” Fred said, and went inside to get his coat and car keys.Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Elena didn’t notice until then that there were eyes looking at her from the side. Turning her head, she saw Fred’s secretary looking at her with jaws dropped and couldn’t help but be a little embarrassed, and quickly apologized to his secretary.
“I’m sorry to have disturbed you.”
After lunch, Fred wanted to send Elena back, Elena was afraid of delaying his work, so she stayed at the company, only the court summons she never took to Fred, her point of worry, afraid that Fred would really be something.
In the afternoon, Albert happened to come over to the company, originally he was sending information to Fred, but did not expect Elena to be there. When she saw Albert, Elena took the initiative to ask: “Albert, do you have time this afternoon? I’m a little uneasy with two kids at home, can you take me back?”
Albert froze, looked at Elena’s eyes, realized she must have something to say, so he smiled and said, “I’m free every day, as long as Fred is not jealous, of course there is no problem.”
“Fine, Albert, I’ll trouble you then.” Fred also wanted to see the information that Albert sent, Elena was here, he was afraid that Elena would worry when she saw it, now he couldn’t be more relieved to have Albert to send Elena back.
Elena got into Albert’s car, but she didn’t know how to speak. Albert said, “Elena, do you have something to say?”
“Well, the summons came from the court this morning. I don’t know what to say to Fred.” Elena didn’t pull out the subpoena, which would have interfered with Albert’s driving.
“Ms. Carole sued him?” Albert immediately understood when he heard that, if it wasn’t Carole, I guess Elena wouldn’t be so torn up about it.
“Mind having a cup of coffee with me?” Albert looked ahead and said.
There was a coffee house just across the intersection ahead, and he thought it would be better to sit down and talk.
Inside the cafe house, Elena showed the court summons to Albert, if she could solve this matter, she really didn’t want Fred to know, after all, right now, Fred had a lot of things to deal with, especially the ‘murder’ of h father-in-law, at this time, he couldn’t be distracted.
“Looks like she’s in a dogfight.” Albert looked at the summons and seemed to know it well.
“What do you mean, Albert, what’s happened to her?” Elena, although she and Carole said they no longer had any relationship, was still worried once she heard that something might have happened to her, that blood is thicker than water, the kind of kinship that can never be broken, even if she hadn’t raised her, but finally the person who gave her life.
“Whether it’s a Chinese man or a foreign man, no man can stand a cuckold, before she came to China, she should have been divorced, now Carole, it can be said that she has nothing, she is doing this, just want to use Bess as a springboard.” Albert said blandly.
Of course he could not tell Elena, this matter, in fact, Fred sent someone to do, originally wanted her to taste the pain of being destroyed marriage, robbed of family, did not expect to find out that he was outside indiscretion, of course, is the plan.
“How could she do such a thing?” Elena couldn’t believe her ears for a moment and really hated to admit that Carole was her mother and why she had such a disgraceful mother.
“Elena, this summons, you’d better give it to Fred, I believe he should have prepared for it, you don’t have to worry about it.” Albert advised Elena.
“Is Fred really going to give them fifty million dollars?” Elena was very worried, not to mention the U. S. dollars, even if it is RMB, it is also a very large number of stops, not to mention that Fred is working with the European side of a large project, the most important need is the capital, draw away so much at once, will not affect the operation of the company.
“That is impossible, right? Six years ago, after Anna married to The Garner family, Fred left home, and Anna took the opportunity to enter the company, transferred a lot of money, to the time of uncle’s death, the company is actually only an empty shell, that is, when you just got married, that year is Fred’s hardest time, to get through After the hard times, Fred then changed the company’s name, investigated the direction of the market, and started over ……”
“But Bess is after all Fred’s sister, she has the right to inherit, and if it goes to court, will Fred really be okay?” Although Albert speaks as if he is really not afraid, but Elena can’t help but still worry.
“Elena, you really don’t have to worry about these things, Fred can make The Cloud Group so big, with not only luck, but also strength, besides, there is also a lot of evidence, they can’t get it, you can just relax.” Albert knew that Elena could not rest assured, but this matter, Fred has already arranged.
“Okay, then I will give Fred the summons tonight,” Elena nodded, at this time, she herself can not help much, now can do just try not to give him trouble.
Looking at Elena, Albert suddenly said: “There is a sentence I do not know when to say.”
“It’s okay, just say what you have to say.” Elena froze, but nodded her head.
“Maybe you had that impulse to register with Fred at first, but you gave birth to two children because you loved him, right? In that case, why not trust him? Believe that he is capable of handling everything and that he will be a good husband and father. As far as friends are concerned, I think Fred is a very good man, not a hundred percent, but at least ninety, just a little bad-tempered once in a while.” Albert said with unparalleled seriousness.
Elena was silent for a long time, and then moved, “Thank you, Fred has a friend like you, I’m happy for him, I know what I’m going to do next.”
“Friends are mutual, because Fred is a friend worthy of deep friendship, it’s late, I’ll take you back, or else Fred will call again later to track.” Albert looked at his watch and smiled.
“Thanks.” Elena nodded her head, and sure enough, just as Albert dropped her off at home, Fred’s phone call came.
When Fred returned in the evening, Elena handed him the summons, and sure enough, just like Albert said, Fred told her not to worry, he had left it in the hands of his lawyer.
The day of the trial, Elena was a little worried and wanted to go, but Fred said no, even he would not appear in court today, everything was left to the lawyer.
But at ten o’clock in the morning, Elena suddenly received a phone call.
A phone that didn’t show a number. Elena saw the blank screen and was a little hesitant, but the phone kept ringing and she finally answered it.
“Is this Ms. Elena?” The voice on the phone was a little hoarse, as if the caller had a bad cold.
“Yes, I am, may I ask which one you are?” Elena asked suspiciously.
“You don’t need to care who I am, you tell Fred that if he wants to keep checking Anna again, don’t blame us for not being polite.” The person on the phone, suddenly said in a vicious voice.
“Who are you people?” Elena said suspiciously.
“You don’t have to care who we are, just tell Fred that if he keeps checking Anna, watch out for his dog’s life.” The man finished viciously and hung up the phone, Elena wanted to ask, but couldn’t do it anymore.
Elena wanted to call Fred, but thought of what Albert said that day, so she held back, only that night, while Fred was taking a shower, Elena received another call, and as during the day, there was still no number displayed, and this time, without waiting for Elena to say anything, the person dropped the word to tell Fred to watch out for his life.
