Chapter 271: Wilson Teases Nolan Multiple Times
"Serena," Daniel angrily pushed Serena, shielding Annabelle in front of him.
Annabelle furrowed her brows, her eyes turning red as she hid behind Daniel. "Zheyu! Didn't you break off the engagement with the Xu family because she deceived you first? It's clearly her fault, so why blame me?"
Daniel protected Annabelle. "She's sick, don't bother with her."
Serena, pushed away by Daniel, looked at him in disbelief. This man who had cherished her for five years, almost worshiping her, actually pushed her today.
"Daniel. You actually... pushed me for this bitch?" Serena's eyes turned red. "She's just pretending. Pretending to be weak. She's just from the Cunningham's Family, there's nothing special about her."
"Serena, if you act like this, it will make the Xu family look uncultured. If you come to the Douglas family to cause trouble, it will make people doubt the education that Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu gave you." Annabelle sighed, looking at Karen, who was chasing after Serena. "Mrs. Karen, don't let Serena embarrass the Xu family."
Karen was angry, but she also felt sorry for her daughter. She walked up and held Serena's hand. "Serena, let's go. The Douglas Residence is kicking us when we're down. They will face consequences for this in the future."
With tears in her eyes, Serena looked at Daniel. "It's been six years, Daniel. I've been with you for six years. I lost a kidney for you because of the car accident, and now I'm in this half-dead state. Is this how you treat me?"
Serena unwillinglywas unwilling, she hated Daniel.
But her social status couldn't compare to Annabelle's.
"You deceived me for six years, how dare you say these things,." Daniel said coldly.
He was just as ruthless to Serena as he was to Wilson back then.
Serena was trembling all over. "Daniel, you're disgusting. You don't deserve Wilson's love. You were so cruel to her when she loved you so much. I should have known. You will treat me the same way in the future."
Serena cried out, pointing at Annabelle. "The fate that Wilson and I face today will be your fate in the future. The Douglas Residence is a devil without humanity. When you no longer have any use for them, you will be just like me."
"Alright, Karen, hurry and take your daughter away. If she's mentally unstable, send her to a mental institution. In consideration of our previous relationship, I won't call the police this time, but don't push it." Howard coldly spoke, showing no mercy.
"Howard, you will rot in hell!" Serena pointed her finger at Howard's nose and cursed. "Do you think I don't know about the disgusting things that happen in your family? You're having an affair with Claire, who happens to be Ethan's mother. I've heard all about it. You will rot in hell."
Howard panicked and slapped Serena. "Zhuyu, call the psychiatric hospital and tell them there's a lunatic here."
Clearly, Howard was flustered. He was afraid and anxious to get rid of Serena.
"What gives you the right to hit my daughter?" Karen also went berserk and rushed at Howard, losing all her dignity as an upper-class lady. She tore at Howard and was about to make a scene but was stopped by security.
Blood dripped from Serena's nostrils as she cried, holding Karen tightly. "Mom, they will face retribution, they definitely will. I'm going to find Ethan. I have evidence, I will tell Ethan that Howard killed his mother."
Sobbing, Serena walked out.
Howard's face darkened as he glanced at his assistant behind him.
The assistant nodded and followed Serena out.
Downstairs.
Just as Serena and Karen stepped out of Stellar Enterprises, a car rushed towards Serena and hit her.
Serena was knocked into the flowerbeds by the roadside, barely clinging to life.
Karen cried out, screaming at the top of her lungs. "Help! Someone has been murdered here!"
The Xu family was in complete chaos.
The Westing Town project was not secured, and Evan was busy and stressed.
Xu Group.
"Mr. Xu, we've found out that Wilson, the assistant of the Cunningham Family, had pre-arranged the villagers to vote for them. We were too careless."
Evan was momentarily stunned, weakly leaning back in the chair and rubbing his temple.
Wilson, it was Wilson.
Evan knew Wilson hated them.
Whatever she did, it was within reason.
"Mr. Xu, something has happened. Miss Serena found out that Daniel was going to get engaged to Annabelle and caused a scene at Stellar Enterprises. After going downstairs, she was hit by a car."
Evan suddenly stood up, his fingers trembling.
The Cunningham Family.
Wilson showed up for work and discovered that the topic that had made it to the hot list had been suppressed.
Unfortunately, yesterday's trending topic was seen by the company's employees.
"Wilson is actually the fake heiress who impersonated the Xu family's daughter twenty years ago."
"Yes, it's her."
The employees whispered among themselves.
Wilson lowered her head and entered the President's office.
"President, this is the proposal sent by Westing Town's representative. Please take a look, and if there's no problem, we can sign the contract with them."
Nolan glanced at Wilson. "You seem to care about Westing Town's affairs."
"The public and you capitalists are different. If they don't see money, they will feel restless. If you want the later stages of Westing Town's project to go smoothly, you have to win the support of the public," Wilson quietly 'educated.'
"We capitalists?" Nolan sneered. "And what is Ethan?"
Wilson answered without hesitation. "A good capitalist."
Nolan's face turned dark with anger.
After leaving the President's office, Wilson went to the restroom.
"Have you seen the hot topic? That Wilson turned out to be the fake heiress from six years ago. I heard her personal life is extremely chaotic. As long as you give her money, she will accompany you."
A few colleagues whispered in the corridor of the restroom.
Wilson took out her phone, recorded audio, and sent it directly to the employee group while also tagging Nolan. ["Mr. Li, rumors harm people. It seems like everyone doesn't like me. I will be resigning.]"
Wilson publicly expressed herself in the employee group.
The group consisted of several hundred mid-level employees, all of whom were shocked.
Why was Wilson so bold?
Soon, Nolan responded coldly. ["My assistant needs to be liked by others? Whoever started this rumor, reflect on it immediately and publicly apologize to Wilson. Submit your self-criticism tomorrow.]"
Soon, someone in the group replied. ["Who is this? Saying such things about Wilson. I really like Wilson. As the President's assistant, she's beautiful, capable, and dedicated to her work. In this day and age, there are still people spreading baseless rumors.]"
["That's right.]"
["I also really like Wilson. I never believe those internet rumors.]"
["These days, only fools would believe those groundless rumors, right?]"
["We must defend the rights of female employees. We can't let these people spread unfounded rumors about our colleagues.]"
In unison, everyone in the group expressed their liking for Wilson.
Soon, the colleague who was speaking ill of Wilson in the bathroom publicly apologized in the group chat.
["Wilson, I'm really sorry. I was just talking about a rumor I saw yesterday. I already criticized the person who posted it. I shouldn't have spread unfounded rumors. I realize my mistake, I'm sorry.]"
His apology was sincere.
Wilson sent a cute emoji. ["It's okay, it's okay. We're all colleagues. Thank you all for liking it. President Li said he wanteds to treat everyone to a meal. I will arrange a team-building trip as soon as possible and send the details to everyone.]"
President's office.
Nolan: ".…"
This Wilson, who clearly is a fox spirit, disguised herself as a rabbit.
Chapter 272: Ethan is Justin's father.
"Wilson, President Li is looking for you."
Wilson lowered his head, looking guilty, and entered the office.
"When did I mention team-building?" Nolan gritted his teeth and spoke.
Wilson took a deep breath and stood straight. "President, the employees have been working overtime for the project and there's some resentment. Organizing a team-building activity is to unite the employees and improve work efficiency."
Nolan reluctantly smiled. "No wonder you're the President's assistant. You always think considerately on behalf of the boss."
"You're overpraising me, boss. There's no need to give me a bonus for the Westing Town project," Wilson reminded Nolan. The Westing Town project had a bonus.
Nolan's mouth twitched. "Xiao Liu, go to the finance department for approval."
The secretary nodded with a smile. "Sure thing."
Wilson blinked politely with her bright eyes. "Boss, you're too kind. I'm just here to help."
The meaning behind her words was, if you want to give me a bonus, I'll continue working. If you don't want to give me a bonus, I'll treat it as helping and leave.
Nolan's eye twitched as well. "Go collect your bonus."
Wilson bowed ninety degrees to Nolan. "Yes, President Li. Thank you, President Li. I'll bring you food tomorrow."
Nolan hummed.
Wilson turned around and rushed to the finance department, afraid that Nolan would change his mind.
The person in charge of the finance department was also very efficient. After deducting taxes and completing the approval process, she directly transferred the money to Wilson.
Wilson checked her balance on her phone and counted happily. She finally had money and could support her brother and Justin.
Finding Ethan's WeChat, Wilson generously sent him a 10,000 yuan transfer. ["I'm repaying the money.]"
Ethan replied, ["Send more on May 20th.]"
Wilson's cheeks turned red as he gave Ethan a $520 red envelope.
Ethan accepted the $520, as well as the $10,000.
If he didn't accept, Wilson would always feel indebted to him.
But soon, Ethan transferred back $131,400.
Wilson was taken aback. ["I don't want it.]"
["You don't love me,]" Ethan sent a crying emoji.
Wilson felt a little flustered.
["I already accepted the $520,]" Ethan sent again. ["My wife is so amazing, she secured the Westing Town project for the Cunningham's Family, so of course there should be a reward.]"
Wilson hesitated and was afraid to accept.
["Anyway, tomorrow all my assets will be transferred to your name to avoid the recent crisis I encountered,]" Ethan added.
Wilson worried. ["Did Howard and Claire take action?]"
["Yeah, I'm so pitiful,]" Ethan feigned sadness.
Wilson felt extremely sorry for him. ["And me too.]"
She would work hard to earn money to support Ethan.
After receiving Ethan's money, it took a long time for Wilson's ears to cool down.
SheHer and Ethan. Were they in love?
Marriage first, then love?
Regardless of whether it was her illusion, Wilson truly felt happy now.
She hoped this happiness could always be with her.
‘"Ring-ring.’"
Still in her happy daze, Wilson covered her blushing cheeks.
Her phone rang, it was Richard calling.
With joy, Wilson picked up the phone, intending to tell her brother about the bonus she received, but before she could speak, he said, "Wilson. Can you come to the hospital? The kindergarten called me, saying Justin fainted today. I'm already at the hospital, and the doctor wants to see you and Justin's dad."
Justin's condition required his father's cooperation for treatment.
They couldn't delay any longer.
Startled, Wilson stood up, her face turning pale as she stammered, "Brother. Brother, I'll…, I'll go come right now."
"Wilson, call Henry," Richard whispered.
Wilson murmured, "Okay."
After hanging up the phone, Wilson hurriedly walked towards the President's office. It wasn't time to leave work yet, so she needed to ask for leave.
But she had just received her bonus.
"Do you need something?" Nolan happened to come out and noticed Wilson with red eyes, furrowing his brows. "Did you cry out of excitement for receiving the bonus?"
"President, can I take a leave? My son is sick," Wilson nervously asked.
Nolan glanced at the time. "Come on, I'll take you there," he said.
Wilson was taken aback, not expecting Nolan to personally accompany her.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go," Nolan furrowed his brow.
Wilson quickly nodded and nervously followed behind Nolan.
On the way to the hospital, Wilson gathered her courage and called Henry.
Henry picked up quickly. "Wilson."
"Henry, can you come to the citycity? Justin had a relapse and we need you to cooperate with the examination," Wilson pleaded, on the verge of tears.
In reality, Wilson understood that as long as Justin received proper treatment, he would be fine. However, if they couldn't find a good treatment plan, his life would be in danger.
On the other end of the call, Henry fell silent. It took a while before he finally spoke. "Wilson."
Wilson thought Henry was about to refuse. "Henry, please, Justin is also your son. I beg you, save him. If you want to take him away from me, I'm willing. Please."
Wilson was almost begging Henry, her voice choked with tears.
On the other end of the call, Henry still didn't respond.
Wilson anxiously waited for Henry's answer.
From the rearview mirror, Nolan glanced at Wilson and furrowed his brow slightly.
Her son was Henry's, yet she had married Ethan. This woman was truly surprising.
Despite the contempt in his heart, Nolan increased the speed of the car. Subconsciously, he still worried that Wilson would be anxious on the way.
"Wilson, there's something I've been meaning to tell you," Henry knew he couldn't hide it any longer.
He wanted to be with Wilson, but he couldn't let his own selfishness harm their child.
Henry knew that Ben was right, if his selfishness caused Justin's condition to worsen, he and Wilson would never be able to reconcile for the rest of their lives.
Wilson gripped her phone nervously.
"I am not Justin's father, I'm sorry," Henry finally confessed.
Wilson stiffly sat in the car seat, feeling cold all over.
"I wanted to keep you with me, so I lied," Henry spoke again.
"What do you mean?" Wilson's voice stuttered, tears uncontrollably streaming down. "Justin's condition has worsened, he needs his father's cooperation for treatment. Please, don't lie."
Henry's heart was in agony. "Wilson, please don't cry. I'm on my way to Silverlight City now, but I truly am not Justin's biological father. It happened six years ago. The person who hurt you was not me, it was Ethan."
Wilson's breath hitched, and her phone slipped from her hand.
She looked at her hands blankly, taking a long time to react.
What?
What did Henry just say?
He must be lying.
He must be lying for sure.
Six years ago.
That night was like hell for Wilson.
In these six years, she has never truly let go.
But Henry said it was Ethan.
Wilson felt her mind go blank in an instant.
She could barely think, and she couldn't breathe.
"Wilson?" Nolan turned to look at Wilson when he noticed something was off.
He slammed on the brakes and parked the car on the side of the road.
Wilson was crying. Her face was as pale as a ghost.
AtIn that moment, Nolan felt that Wilson was like a soulless zombie, and it inexplicably pierced his heart.
