A Crazy Wife

"Okay."

Hannah Joseph accepts the business card and smiles, "if you are free, please call me at any time. I'm usually bored at home alone. I don't have any hobbies except jewelry research. I hope you don't mind I'm a housewife."

Judging from Hannah Joseph's skillful way of pulling her hair, Mrs. Susan knows that she is a knowledgeable person, "How can I care you are a housewife? You are better at studying jewelry than some unknown designers. Besides, just call me Susan."

Hannah Joseph looks flattered and surprised to the point. After a few seconds, she settles down and calls her "Susan."

Mrs. Susan nods her head with satisfaction, "Then I'll call you Hannah."

Mrs. Susan is a straightforward person who divides her private life from her work. Hannah Joseph can't understand that any more. So even if she helps her at this time, she can't talk about the business of the Shahbaz group in a hurry because her purpose is too strong.

They go back to the box side by side and chat about jewelry casually on the way back. Mrs. Susan asks several questions. Hannah Joseph is able to make a very detailed answer and analysis. She has unique opinions on the collocation of jewelry and fashion. Mrs. Susan is more and more appreciative of her.

At the gate of the box, Mrs. Susan couldn't help saying, "Hannah, you have such talent, how can you be a housewife at home? Didn't you think about going out and doing anything?"

"In fact, I have the idea, but it's a long story, and it's still difficult."

Just as she is talking, there is a voice of discontent in the box, "Hannah, who are you talking to? You went to the bathroom for a long time. You..."

At the same time, one hand lifts the curtain of the box to reveal Lily Pons's over painted white face. When what she says is half finished, she gets stuck in her throat. She looked at the woman standing side by side with Hannah Joseph in amazement, "Susan, Mrs. Susan?"

When the conversation is interrupted, Mrs. Susan frowns and looks at Lily Pons lightly for the sake of Hannah Joseph, saying politely, "Thank you, Mrs. Shahbaz."

Lily Pons's eyes are bright. When she speaks, she looks back and forth on the two people,

"You're welcome."

Then she looks at Hannah Joseph and says, "Hannah, how can you talk to Mrs. Susan at the door? Please come and sit in the box."

Hannah Joseph frowns, "Mom..."

"I am sorry." Mrs. Susan interrupts, "I have a good time with your daughter-in-law. I will ask her out for tea some other day, but I have something to do today. I have to go first."

Mrs. Susan's words make Hannah Joseph feel comfortable. Lily Pons doesn't have much to say.

Before dinner, Lily Pons' husband comes back from the company and talks with Lily Pons in the living.

Rainy Shahbaz is playing with her newly bought Bracelet while Chester Shahbaz is reading a magazine in the corner of the living room. As usual, Zander Shahbaz is absent. The whole family is waiting for Mr. Shahbaz to come back for dinner.

After chatting with Lily Pons for a while, Bryant Shahbaz turns to ask Hannah Joseph, "You spoke to Mrs. Susan at the auction today?"

Hannah Joseph is stunned.

All eyes in the room fall on her.

She says cautiously, "there is something wrong with Mrs. Susan's jewelry. I have solved it for her, Dad. Is there any problem?"

"No problem, no problem," Bryant Shahbaz says with bright eyes. "Sit down and tell me what's going on today."

Hannah Joseph then sits next to Lily Pons and tells him everything about the auction this afternoon, including how she got to know Mrs. Susan and that Mrs. Susan will call her and ask her out for tea. "If that's the case, the business cooperation will be easy."

Bryant Shahbaz says happily, "no one who participated in the bidding this time has enough relationship with Mrs. Susan. In terms of products, everyone has the similar quality. Now it's up to Mrs. Susan and who she is interested in. Hannah has done a good job."

Rainy Shahbaz mutters discontentedly, "She is the blind cat who meets the dead mouse. Is that what she does?"

Bryant Shahbaz looks at her daughter, "I'll see if you can do it."

Rainy Shahbaz is speechless and glares at Hannah Joseph angrily.

Lily Pons is afraid that her daughter will be scolded, so she quickly puts the topic back on the original track, "That's easy. Let Hannah make an appointment with Mrs. Susan and recommend our group more."

"I'm afraid I can't," Hannah Joseph says politely. "I just met Mrs. Susan. If I suddenly ask her to help with business, the purpose seems to be too strong, and it will backfire."

Lily Pons's face is disdainful, but her husband nods approvingly, "Yes, you can't talk about business with Mrs. Susan on your own initiative. Once you do, it will be a bad thing." "What is the reason?" Lily Pons looks puzzled.

Bryant Shahbaz takes a look at her, frowns slightly but explains patiently, "Mrs. Susan's subjective consciousness is very strong. She hates being persuaded by others. The best way is to subtly influence her. Since she likes Hannah, let Hannah get along with her. She knows Hannah is the Shahbaz family's daughter-in-law. When the bidding starts, she will inevitably pay more attention to the Shahbaz group. That's enough."

Hannah Joseph nods.

Maybe it's because the Shahbaz's family seldom helps with business affairs, Bryant Shahbaz is rarely so happy. He asks Hannah Joseph, "if this thing is done, it's all your credit. You can say what you want, no matter whether it's a car or a house."

Hearing it, Lily Pons and Rainy Shahbaz stare straight. Lily Pons says impolitely, "She is the Shahbaz family's daughter-in-law. She should have helped. What are you doing?" Rainy Shahbaz is angry. "Dad, you have never said you send me a car and a house."

Bryant Shahbaz gives both of them a neglected look. "If you two can do it, I will give the house and the car to you. Hannah, if you can do it, you will be rewarded. Tell me what you want. It's what you deserve." Hannah Joseph takes a look at others. Lily Pons and Rainy Shahbaz are both unhappy. Chester Shahbaz never says a word as if he has nothing to do with his father's business. He only reads his own military magazine.

After hesitating for a while, she says, "The house and the car are omitted. Dad, if you really want to reward me, can you let me go to work in the Shahbaz group?"

Then the living room suddenly becomes quiet.

Bryant Shahbaz gives her look of inquiry, "You're going to work for the Shahbaz group? Why?"

Hannah Joseph says slowly, "I feel it is boring when I stay at home and do nothing. I only want to start as an ordinary assistant of the design department and I have no other requirement."
