"Moon, are you awake?"
Hannah was overjoyed to see Jiang Yue, but her expression quickly turned to guilt and unease.
"Moon, I'm really sorry about what happened last night. I didn't think things through and you almost got tricked."
"I'm fine."
Jiang Yue smiled and waved her hand dismissively.
"You don't need to take this to heart. Look at me, I'm perfectly fine now."
"That's because you're smart and didn't fall for the trap. If you hadn't noticed something was wrong with that maid last night, you would have been in real trouble."
Although Jiang Yue didn't blame her, Hannah still felt very guilty.
What happened after I left last night?
Jiang Yue asked as she led Hannah downstairs.
Hannah came to find Jiang Yue, intending to explain what happened last night to her.
Hearing Jiang Yue ask this question, he immediately said, "After you left last night, someone came to tell me that something had happened to you."
That maid was also bribed; he told you that something had happened to you in front of many people.
Those people who were with me at the time all followed me when I went to find you.
“At the time, I thought you were really in trouble, and I was very anxious. At the same time, I didn’t want so many people to see you. I originally wanted to drive them all away or keep them all outside, but some people wouldn’t listen to me, and I couldn’t afford to offend them, so a few people still followed me back to the pool.”
At this point, Hannah's face showed even more guilt.
She considered Jiang Yue her best friend and believed she could protect her.
But unexpectedly, Jiang Yue still got into trouble, and Hannah felt extremely guilty at the time.
"Then what?"
Jiang Yue continued to ask.
She wanted to know what happened next.
Hannah breathed a slight sigh of relief when she saw that Hannah wasn't angry, and continued, "After we got to the pool, we saw that the curtains of your room on the first floor were open, and someone was inside..."
Even without Hannah saying anything more, Jiang Yue already knew what the two of them were doing.
Hannah didn't dare tell Jiang Yue how nasty the people who went with her said when they saw the scene in that room; Hannah was furious.
Fortunately, her swimming coach had already told her what had happened, and she knew that Jiang Yue had already left safely and that the woman in the room was not Jiang Yue.
So she led those people into the room and saw Brown working hard on the bed. The woman on the bed was not Lin Miao, but a maid from the manor.
Because the room lights were off at the time, they could only see a faint image from outside and couldn't make out who was inside.
It wasn't until they saw Brown that everyone realized what was happening.
Yuk was also there at the time. When he saw his uncle rolling around with his girlfriend's maid in her house, Yuk's expression was truly priceless.
Brown was startled when he saw so many people rushing in, and his face darkened even more when he realized that the woman he was sleeping with was not Jiang Yue.
Because Brown was involved in the matter, Hannah didn't dare to throw him out of the manor directly, so she had to call her father and grandfather over.
At that time, Lu Jingnian had just finished discussing the next meeting with Hannah's father and was preparing to leave with his people.
Seeing that Hannah's father had something to do, he made an excuse and left quickly.
Because of this incident, Hannah's father's impression of Lu Jingnian improved considerably.
At this point, Hannah sighed, her voice filled with guilt.
"Moon is really sorry because Brown and my dad are still working together. Even though he did that kind of thing in my house, my dad and grandpa covered it up."
They didn't really blame Brown.
After all, it wasn't her who got into trouble, but an insignificant maid. Compared to an insignificant maid, cooperating with Brown was of course more important.
So the matter was left unresolved.
It did not have any negative impact on Brown.
It was precisely because of this that Hannah felt increasingly sorry for Jiang Yue.
"This is not your fault, Hannah, you don't need to blame yourself."
When Jiang Yue learned what had happened, she wasn't particularly angry, because she had already guessed that this would be the outcome.
"How could I not blame myself? It's all because I didn't protect you properly that you almost got into an accident."
Hannah couldn't forgive herself. "And that Brown, that man is really awful. He's so old and he's always thinking about such shameless things."
"But Moon, my dad and grandpa assured me last night that their cooperation with Brown will stop soon."
"Once the cooperation ends, I'll definitely find someone to teach Brown a lesson heaped upon you, to get revenge for you."
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you to get revenge for me in the future."
Jiang Yue smiled and nodded. What Hannah had just said matched what Lu Jingnian had said last night.
It seems that Hannah's father had long since given up on cooperating with Brown, but he hadn't been able to crack the core data of the project in Brown's hands. Now, he should be close to success.
"By the way, since you're here today, why don't you stay for dinner tonight? I'll have the chef cook some dishes from my hometown for you."
Jiang Yue doesn't blame Hannah for what happened last night. She has no friends abroad, and Hannah is her first friend, which Jiang Yue cherishes.
"OK."
Seeing that Jiang Yue was really not angry with her, Hannah was completely relieved.
After recounting what happened last night, Hannah turned to Lu Jingnian and said...
"When I came here, my dad asked me to tell you that he's waiting for you at the company at 9 a.m. tomorrow. If you're confident you can get him to sign a contract with you tomorrow, remember to bring your contract with you."
Upon hearing this, Song Gang, who was standing next to him, visibly beamed with joy.
The fact that Charles was able to meet with them so quickly and discuss the signing of the contract suggests that Miss Hannah played a significant role in the process.
Of course, Song Gang didn't think it was because of his and Lu Jingnian's charm. He believed that Hannah was only speaking up for Jiang Yue because of her.
"Thank you, Miss Hannah."
Lu Jingnian nodded seriously, leaving Jiang Yue and Hannah alone. He took Song Gang to the study upstairs, intending to supplement the contract and plan, and try to sign the contract by tomorrow.
Once the contract was signed, they were completely relieved.
Next, Lu Jingnian can focus on bringing down Brown.
Upon entering the study, Lu Jingnian asked Song Gang, "Have you found out where Lin Miao is now?"
Song Gang nodded. "It's been investigated. Lin Miao didn't complete what Brown asked her to do last night. Brown was furious when he got back and locked her up in a nightclub all night. She was carried back home early this morning."
I heard Brown has had her thrown out of E City, so she can never come back.
Brown likes women, but women can be very ruthless.
The women he got tired of always ended up in terrible situations.
