Chapter 220

Author: Harlow
Regarding Jaden’s use of “older brother and sister-in-law” to refer to Michael’s parents, Collin found it rather strange.

Although they were a family, there was a large age gap, and considering what these people had done, they could not truly be called elders.

“It’s rare to hear you address Thomas that way.”

Jaden shrugged with his coffee in hand. Denying it would not change the truth—Thomas, Michael’s father, was indeed Jaden’s half-brother.

“We are not the same kind of people. If I had stayed in the Hall family, even if I died, I would never have allowed outsiders to lay a hand on the family’s assets. Even if I lost every single property under my control, I would not let others tell me what to do.”

Moreover, the true intentions of that person remained unknown.

He did not believe anyone would simply help others so selflessly. Approaching Thomas, using Michael, and doing so many things—there must have been ambition behind it.

    Chris indeed brought a group of people to the Wilder Group for a meeting, including Ashley.After getting out of the car, Ashley secretly pulled Chris aside and asked, “You brought us to the Wilder Group for the meeting? Does the board know about your relationship with Ms. Wilder?”Not really.There were always some people who didn’t care about his personal relationships, only thinking about the benefits he could bring.Who his wife was didn’t matter at all.Chris comforted Ashley. “Don’t worry. The office was arranged by Shannon and Francesca. I originally wanted to meet you guys at my house. The hospital has been a bit chaotic lately, so they didn’t want to talk there.”Ashley nodded. “That makes sense.”He looked up and scanned the unfamiliar place. Even though he had worked for Jessica for many years, he had rarely been to the Wilder Group. Whenever he did, he would usually going straight to her office.The Wilder Group’s office building was so large that the edges of the b

    “This is your home too, so you can make all the decisions, but as for holding meetings...” Jessica yawned and rubbed the corner of her eye.“I think the meeting environment is still very important. The Wilder Group has a conference hall that it rent out, and it’s available tomorrow. I’ll ask Shannon to arrange a smaller room for you. You can hold the meeting at the Wilder Group, and maybe we can have lunch together?”That was fine as well.Being able to find time to meet within the day was already satisfying.Jessica then went to the study to look at some documents.Chris tidied up the things on the sofa and was about to turn off the TV when a sudden face on the screen made him freeze.He didn’t like the house to be too quiet — it was a habbit left from the previous five years.He liked things lively, liked hearing people around.Working with the TV on didn’t disturb his thoughts.The face suddenly appearing on the TV was Michael’s.Michael had actually returned to the countr

    That night, Jessica came back and happened to see Chris sitting in the living room reviewing documents.Jessica recalled that Shannon had reported on the recent situation at the Summit Infirmary.Basically, Francesca and Shannon communicated regularly, with Shannon passing on the important details to her.This time, it was about a very serious case of spinal curvature, seemingly congenital, who had been to several hospitals before going to the Summit Infirmary.The board had argued for a long time over whether to accept this patient.Several senior executives believed that since the Summit Infirmary was preparing to be listed, the priority should be maintaining the hospital’s surgical success rate, especially for such severe operations, which shouldn’t be taken on before the IPO.However, Chris and several attending doctors felt that a hospital was still a hospital, and even if it was going to be listed, it couldn’t become completely commercialized, the patients must always come

    The people who were taken advantage of did not dare to retaliate because of the Wilder family and could only swallow their grievances in silence.Thomas said that Michael’s child was a burden and complained about why Michael brought the child back to the country.Wasn’t Helen from the Jills family who was still alive?He wanted Michael to give Jordan to Helen so that Michael could start anew with Jessica without wasting any time.Michael’s stubbornness made Thomas angry.No one expected that Michael was hiding such a significant identity.The banquet officially started, and Collin went on stage to give a speech.“Hurricane Media was able to return to Cheria, and I was able to retake my parents’ business thanks to my friends and my lover,” said Collin, his gaze fixed on Jaden, openly mentioning him without hesitation. “From now on, Hurricane Media will be managed by me and my lover together. Today is Hurricane Media’s banquet, and I want everyone to understand this.”His tone wa

    Joanne angrily stomped behind them, her gaze sweeping toward Uncle Mason.Chris keenly noticed this and also looked toward Uncle Mason’s direction, who slightly nodded to Joanne, signaling her to keep following them.At first, Joanne hesitated a little, but then she saw Collin and Jaden holding hands and whispering.Jaden, a man, actually had a look of gentle annoyance in his eyes as if blaming Collin slightly, and then Collin indulgently lifted his hand to lightly tap Jaden’s nose.Such a pampering gesture.Joanne couldn’t help but blame the other members of the Phillips family in her heart.If they hadn’t sent Collin abroad for so many years, Collin and she would have grown up together, and Jaden wouldn’t have the chance to be with Collin.She truly liked Collin.When she was young and experiencing her first feelings, she didn’t understand what liking someone really meant, nor what it meant to be unable to live without that person.By the time she saw Collin on international

    The rest would be handled by Francesca.Francesca pushed up the glasses she had specially brought today. “But I hope you can be a bit more competent as a mascot, Mr. Green. Don’t always stick by Ms. Wilder’s side. Go mingle on your own, so I can help you expand your network. If you always stick to Ms. Wilder, all your connections will come from Ms. Wilder.”Chris was at a loss for words. Now Francesca was starting to have demands.Considering Francesca’s hard work, Chris thought for a long time before agreeing, “But it can’t be more than two hours.”“Okay.”With this leisurely atmosphere, Jaden thought it was about time to leave, but Chris pulled him back and pointed at Collin, asking, “Who is the woman beside Collin? I’ve been watching for a while. She’s always following Collin around, but it seems like Collin doesn’t really want to pay attention to her.”Jaden followed Chris’s finger and saw a woman indeed, wearing a silver tight-fitting long dress, with big wavy hair and brigh
