Chapter 52 He Is a Good Partner
After sending Luz back to Tempe University, Hellen returned home.
Early in the morning the next day, she got up early and went to The Jovano Group. She was going to the United Department in the Weststadt District in the afternoon, so she planned to finish the company’s daily affairs in the morning.
After a busy morning meeting with Mike, it was lunchtime.
Hellen called the dean of the Tempe Hospital, Jack Martin. She had been quite busy these days and didn’t have time to visit her brother at night.
She was relieved to hear that Everet was recovering well.
“Professor Harlana, how’s the progress of your research on Matt Walker’s medical record last time?” The director’s voice sounded hesitant and expectant.
Hellen had studied Matt’s condition. Right now, his condition was still unstable, and there was still a possibility that the extravasated blood in his brain could change.
“Let’s talk about it later. Let’s wait and see.”
The best choice was to perform the surgery when the patient’s condition had stabilized.
Hellen did not tell Luz that Matt needs an operation. It just so happened that she was also busy with the project in recent days, and she was still pregnant.
The best time for surgery was in a few months.
After hanging up the phone, Hellen had lunch and asked Mike to stay at the company while she drove to the Weststadt District alone.
The streets of the Weststadt District were complicated. By the time Hellen arrived, it was already two o’clock in the afternoon.
Where the United Department was located was a market before. Because the United Department had just been established, it had not yet been registered.
When Hellen entered, she saw the people of each department, and the room was temporarily cordoned off with glass.
After looking around for a while, she saw David Brown coming out from inside.
“Mrs. Jovano, you’re here. Mr. Grant has been waiting for you.”
Hellen passed through two corridors of the glass office and arrived at two of the innermost offices.
David introduced the office to Hellen, “The one on the right is yours. Mr. Grant usually stays on the left one. He’s waiting for you right now.”
Hellen stared at the translucent glass and frowned. “When you made the partition, didn’t you consider your privacy issues?”Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
There was just glass between the two offices. When she wanted to slack off, she would be exposed to Hans.
She would ask Mike to buy a big screen tomorrow to block in the middle.
She followed David into Hans’s office. There was a large table in the middle of the office.
Hans was leaning against the table looking at a picture. His hands were placed on the table and his sleeves were rolled up to his arms, revealing his muscles.
Hans leaned forward slightly and looked focused.
“Mr. Grant, Mrs. Jovano is here,” David said.
When Hans turned around, Hellen was shocked by the man’s appearance. This man was incredibly handsome.
“You’re here.”
“Uh, do you encounter some sort of problem?”
Hellen walked to the table and looked at the map on it. There was a large map of the Weststadt District on the table. But it was much more detailed than any other maps on the market, and even the altitude was marked.
Hans pointed to one of the places. “This place was originally planned for the school, but the investigators didn’t find an ancient building there. It’s more troublesome. I want to hear your opinion.”
Hellen crossed her arms, staring at it for a while. “What sort of ancient building is it?”
David immediately reported the situation from the side. It was the old house of a poet surnamed Jean. Though it was not a shining achievement in its long history, it was special in Tempe City.
Hellen narrowed her eyes, staring at it for a while. Her expression became focused as well. “This is rather troublesome.”
After negotiating, they both agreed to build a school in this area. She thought for a while and said, “Why don’t we repair the ancient house directly and leave it in the school?”
Hans was lost in thought. “Then the school might have to expand its scale.”
The two were discussing so seriously that they didn’t realize that they were getting closer and closer when they got closer to see the school site.
Hellen thought for a moment, then raised her head and said, “It’s no problem to the expanse.”
Her nose almost swept across his chest, and she smelled Hans’s wooden fragrance.
Hans was also slightly shocked, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Hans looked down and met Hellen’s raising face.
Hans could almost see every detail on Hellen’s face and her sparkling eyes.
Both of them were stunned. Hellen was the first to react and she took a step back as she said in a low voice, “I’m sorry, I didn’t notice.”
Hans felt a little disappointed when he saw her step back.
“It doesn’t matter.” There was an inexplicable emotion in his voice.
After deciding to bring Jean’s Old House into the school, Hellen returned to her office.
There weren’t many supervision works here. What needed to do were just patrolling from time to time and listening to the managers reporting the progress of the project.
As soon as she returned to her office, Hellen called Mike and asked him to send his secretary to bring some sandpaper. She originally wanted to set up a screen, but later, she thought it would be too troublesome.
For the sake of not seeming special, Hellen had instructed them to stick the sandpaper to the lower half of all the windows in the United Department.
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Hans watched the workers busy sticking the sandpaper. He couldn’t see Hellen’s office clearly.
His face fell.
David, who was at the side, said, “Mr. Grant-”
Hans frowned. Half of the reason why he had asked Hellen to come to the United Department was to figure out why he cared about Hellen so much.
Hans, who had always been successful in the business, knew how important to know others well, so he decided to approach Hellen first.
But now, he was inexplicably upset.
Hans turned to look at David and asked, “What is it?”
“Miss Susan’s assistant just called. He said that Miss Susan had a heart attack and was hospitalized. She wants you to visit her.”
Hans’s expression grew colder. He had just broken up with Natalie yesterday and now she had a heart attack.
He picked up his phone and glanced at it. Natalie knew that he didn’t like to be harassed by phone calls, so she had sent him dozens of messages yesterday.
David, who was at the side, asked, “Mr. Grant, would you like to visit him?”
“No,” Hans said flatly. If he didn’t go, Natalie might heal faster.
When it was time to get off work, Hellen left.
A few minutes after she left, Hans left the United Department with David glumly.
In the Department of Cardiology of the Tempe Hospital.
Natalie sat on the hospital bed, and her assistant stood next to her. “Natalie, it’s time for IV drips. Would you like to go to the bathroom first?”
“Hans didn’t even come, so what’s the point of getting IV drips?” Natalie bellowed, “What did you tell him? Why didn’t he come to see me?”
The assistant panicked and weakly said, “I called his assistant. He said that Mr. Grant has been busy recently and doesn’t have time-”
“He’s busy?!” Natalie bit her lower lip. This was just an excuse!
“Recently, the Grant Group and The Jovano Group had been working together to rebuild the Weststadt District? Mr. Grant may be busy with that matter,” her assistant whispered.
“The Jovano Group! It must be that Hellen who used some sort of method to seduce Hans. I never noticed that this bitch had such methods in the past!”
Natalie clutched the quilt tightly. “No, I can’t just sit here and wait for my doom. I have to get out of the hospital!”
“But you just moved in last night.”
Natalie’s face turned cold. “What did you say?”
The assistant stammered. “Then, then I’ll get you discharged.”
“Ask the driver to pick me up. You go through the discharge procedures!”
Natalie walked out of the ward. On the way to the hospital, there were people who recognized her from time to time.
“Isn’t that Natalie? That star!”
“That bitch!”
