Her Precious Baby

Chapter 276
As powerful as Evander could be, he could not object to the decision in front of so many people. In the end. he had no choice but
to accept it.
Thanks to Sylas' investigation, Evander found out that Hubert had secretly done many things to rob him of his interests.
Knock! Knock!
A knock came on his office door, and Sylas stepped in. His expression turned grim as he glanced at the muscular figure standing
by the window.
Sylas stepped forward and reported respectfully, ‘‘You guessed it right, Mr. Golding. Remember that winery project on Linlow
Island we invested in? Hubert has been interfering with it under Golding Group's name. It has brought problems to the quality of
wine and displeasure from the higher-ups. This won't end well.”
Evander turned around and took the document from Sylas. After flipping it through, he instructed grimly, “Get me the earliest
flight ticket you can find. I'm going to Linlow Island.”
Surprise flashed past Sylas' eyes. “Mr. Golding, this is a small matter. You can just let me handle it. It's a bit of an overkill for you
to make a trip there.”
Looking calm. Evander muttered, “It's fine. Hubert's a crafty one. We've got to be careful.”
He could use the opportunity to find out how Hubert planted a spy behind his back.
The longer Hubert remained in Golding Group, die greater the tlireat he possessed to the company.
Meanwhile, Angeline had walked over to die cafeteria under Lillian's guidance. Upon arriving there, die former instantly spotted
Hanson sitting on die couch with his back leaned against the seat and his eyes shut.
Perhaps die past few days had been too tough, for he looked utterly exhausted.
While sitting in an upright position, he still fell asleep. There was nothing inappropriate to his posture.
As soon as Angeline opened die door and walked into the cafeteria. Hanson awakened and gazed at her with liis bloodshot
eyes. “Are you done with work?”

“Yes.” Angeline returned his gaze, feeling a little guilty. Nonetheless, when she recalled how he had used her in the past, the
hostile look returned to her face.
“Why didn't you get some rest before coming here if you're so tired?”
Hanson massaged his temples with his slim fingers, concealing the fatigue in his eyes with a laugh. “I can't sleep. I came here
the first thing when I got your message.”
“I see,” Angeline responded.
Lillian, who was still at the door, was great at reading the room. Sensing where the conversation was going, she greeted Hanson
politely and excused herself from die cafeteria.
The moment she left, a pin-drop silence ensued in the cafeteria. Seeing Hanson had no intention of speaking. Angeline took out
a document from her bag and pushed it to him. “Mr. Yiurk, let's not waste each odier's time. Have a look at this contract. If you
don't have any problems with it. then sign it.”
Hanson frowned in response as if not understanding Angeline's intentions.
However, he still flipped through the contract when he saw her serious expression.
After studying it carefully, he widened his eyes. “There's a limit to fooling around, Angeline!”
He slammed the contract on die table. At diat moment, his usual warm amber eyes glinted with fury.
“You want to buy my shares for three million? Do you know that diis is not a small amount? How are you going to pay for it?”
He was already feeling frustrated because of work. He had zero patience to deal with such an absurd deal.
“Did you get me here just so you can mess with me?”
Angeline was unfazed, for she had expected that reaction from him.
She picked up die cup from the table and blew on it before taking a sip. “You don't have to know so much. Mr. Yiurk. I know
you're in need of money. All you need to do is sign diis contract, and die money will be transferred to your account.”
Hanson did not believe her until he saw the calm look on her face. He gripped the contract as liis heart wavered.

Three million. That's enough to cover the hinds Yiurk Group lacks.
Little did he expect Angeline to be die one negotiating with him in die end. As he recalled the incidents at the fashion show, he
felt liis back drenched in a cold sweat.
“Did you know anything about diose videos diat were suddenly played?” he asked in a hushed voice.
Angeline's eyes glinted. After a moment of silence, she said calmly, “I didn't do it.”
However, she did not deny her knowledge of the videos.
Hanson was no fool. He figured out the trudi and let out a self-deprecating laugh. “You've changed. Angeline.” Lifting liis head, he
stared at Angeline with a gaze full of reluctance and regret. It took him a long time before he finally parted his lips. “I still
remember diis girl in the ponytail from my university days. She stood in the middle of die track under the sun and handed me a
bottle of water. She was—”
“Enough. If you're here to reminisce about the past, dien I have no choice but to send you away,” Angeline interrupted icily.
The frostiness in her tone pulled Hanson back to reality. He picked up the pen on the table, uncapped it, and signed his name on
the contract.
He took a long time to sign it compared to contracts diat involved hundreds of millions.
When he was done, liis broad shoulders shuddered, and liis eyes turned red. With a hoarse voice, he murmured, “You've been
planning to make me sell my shares in Forrester Group, haven't you?”
Angeline did not deny it. Instead, she penned her signature on die contract before putting it away, secretly feeling relieved.
“I'm looking forward to working with you. The funds will be transferred to your account by tonight,” she informed formally.
Truth was, she could not pay liim three million if she relied solely on her pay from her celebrity days. Thankfully, she still had the
stores left behind by Wilfred before he passed away.
Instead of letting diem go to waste, she would rather sell them off and retrieve all her mother's properties.
Only when Forrester Group's scale had expanded would she be able to rebuild Sorelle Group's reputation.

Now diat the contract was settled, she got up from her seat and turned around to leave without sparing Hanson another glance.
Just then, he grabbed her wrist with tremendous force. His tone was thick with anger when he said. “Do you really want to run
away from me so badly. Angeline?”
“You're overthinking, Mr. Yiurk.” Angeline turned around, casting liim a distant glance. “I admit it. We did have a wonderful time,
but diat was all in die past. Besides, you never trusted me back then. You even married Joseline for profits, did you not?”
Hanson's eyes flashed with guilt as he hung liis head. Still, he did not release Angeline's hand.
“I'm sony, Angeline...”
His apology made Angeline's stony expression falter. She knitted her brows tightly as the bitter emotions flooded her heart.
