Chapter 520
"Wait."
Nora's eyes flickered, she stopping the housekeeper again. "Grandpa, you don't have to go to Lucas about this, since Lucas and I have already dealt with it privately. I'm just angry about something else." "What do you mean by settled in private? Why didn't anyone tell me about such a big thing?"
Lucas' grandfather was clearly unhappy with Nora's words.
"Grandpa, Lucas has made it up to me for this, so if you go to him or my mother-in-law, Lucas will hate me even more!" "How he dare!"
Nora eerily raised her lips, then saying grievously. "Why wouldn't he dare? I asked him to make up for it with a project he was working on, but he stopped working with the Davis' right away, so now the Davis' has more than 10 million dollars unsold items. Grandpa, you have to help me, as the Davis' can't afford to lose more than 10 million dollars."Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Lucas' grandfather became more irritated. "Lucas really did that?"
Nora nodded with a choked voice. "I was thinking that when the branch office was stabilized, I was going to discuss with Lucas to help him in the head office, but he refused. He also said I was trying to change the Hawk's into the Davis', but I never thought of that." When she had finished speaking, she began to cry again.
Lucas' grandfather's face looked terrible, he frowning. "Nora, stop crying, Grandpa won't let you down about this."
He said, gesturing to the housekeeper, who was still waiting. "You go and get Lucas and Sophia here." "Yes!"
The housekeeper took his orders, turning away.
Nora squinted her eyes, she pretending to look at Lucas' grandfather nervously. "Grandpa, shall I stay?"
Lucas' grandfather looked at her, she looking nervous. He thought of Sophia's attitude toward her before, so he didn't want her to stay. "Go back, and Grandpa will take care of things for you." "It's very kind of you, grandpa."
Nora spoke tearfully to Lucas' grandfather, then leaving the main house.
At the same time, Lucas received orders from his grandfather at the company.
"The President, your grandfather's housekeeper calling just now, he let you get back home immediately."
Lucas frowned slightly. "Did he say anything?"
"The housekeeper didn't say, but it seems very urgent."
"I know it, I'll go back, you take the rest of the information to my room later."
As he had finished, he got up and took the key from the desk, walking out of the office.
Ten minutes later, he was back at the Hawk's, he going to find his grandfather.
He had just entered the living room when he saw his mother standing in the living room with an aggrieved face, while his grandfather sat sullenly on the sofa. "What's the matter?"
Lucas walked over to Sophia, looking puzzled at his grandfather.
Sophia tried to tell Lucas unconsciously, but before she could speak, she heard an angry yell from Lucas' grandfather.
"What's the matter? Don't you know what you've done?"
Lucas' grandfather glared at Lucas angrily. 'I've always thought you were very reassuring, but I didn't expect you to disappoint me so much this time!'
Lucas frowned, bewildered by his grandfather's scolding of him. "Grandpa, what are you talking about?"
"What did I say? I want to ask you about your mom drugging Nora, and do you know that? Are you still dissatisfied with the marriage I arranged for you, so that you overtly agreed but covertly opposed?" "Dad, Lucas doesn't know anything about this."
Seeing Lucas' grandfather reprimand her son, Sophia was unable to bear her son's suffering, she stepped forward to take responsibility. "As I did it all by myself, Lucas didn't know about it, and we have dealt with it. So dad, how did you know that?" As she finished speaking, Nora's face flashed through her mind. "Dad, did Nora tell you this? Well, I knew this woman wasn't such a pushover, and did she want something good again? Lucas is out of luck to marry her..." "That's enough."
Sophia's words were interrupted by a scolding from Lucas' grandfather. "How can you be so righteous after doing such a thing? You've made it up to her? Is there anything you can do to make it up to her for intentionally hurting her like this? And you, Lucas, I thought you were compensating Nora because you really realized your mistake, but then you went back on your word, as you broke all ties with the Davis'. Do you know that Nora's father lost more than 10 million dollars because of your decision?" Lucas looked terrible.
If he didn't know what was happening at first, he knew it now.
For a moment, he understood that why did Nora say to him, telling him not feel regret in the office.
The woman tried to take advantage of his grandfather.
"So what do you mean, grandpa?"
He looking very stern, looked at his grandfather.
Lucas' grandfather snorted slightly. "What do I mean? I mean I want you to work with the Davis' again. Also, Nora said she wanted to work at the head office, so you should find her a position in the company, while making sure she doesn't have to work too hard." "What? Does she still want to work at the head office?" Sophia looked angry as she heard Lucas' grandfather's words.
"I wanted Nora to work at the head office, so do you have a problem with my arrangements?"
Lucas' grandfather looking coldly at Sophia, his eyes were full of warning to her.
Sophia's lungs seemed to be bursting with rage, but under the sharp eyes of Lucas' grandfather, she dared not say a word to contradict him.
Under the pressure of circumstances, all she could do was look at Lucas. "Lucas, what do you think? Do you want Nora to work at the head office?"
Lucas glancing at her, his eyes fell on his grandfather, saying deadpan. "I see and I'll give her a suitable job at the head office."
"Good." Lucas' grandfather nodded in satisfaction. "Remember what you said, and you're not allowed to retaliate against Nora. Otherwise, if you let me know, don't blame me for not helping you."
"Dad, are you crazy? If you let Nora work in the head office, it's completely like inviting a Wolf into a room! And Lucas, why did you say yes?"
Sophia couldn't accept the result.
She always wanted Nora to leave, but as a result, Nora's identity and status became more and more secure in the Hawk's, while Nora now even openly to work in the head office.
"Well, don't you talk to me about luring the Wolf in here. It's always been you, who looked at Nora with prejudice, since when did Nora ever do something wrong to the Hawk's?"
Lucas' grandfather looked disapprovingly at Sophia. "Don't you lose your temper here, and as you drugged Nora, I haven't even settled with you. From now on, you can leave everything in the main house to Uncle Kun, so you can reflect on yourself at home. And you, Lucas, not only did you not report this, but you helped conceal this, so you go to the ancestral hall tonight to kneel, reflecting on yourself."
"Dad!"
Sophia looked at Lucas' grandfather in disbelief.
She never expected that Lucas' grandfather would take away her authority to run the family directly, and asked Lucas to kneel in the ancestral hall.
"Well, I'm tired, so you two go out."
Ignoring them, Lucas' grandfather waved for Uncle Kun to see them off.
