Chapter 122 A Challenge

In the house, Heidy was sitting in the yard and rolling the swing, with her eyes staring blankly ahead. She was in a total mess when she thought of the information she collected today. She didn't know whether they had put in practice to fight against the Hua group. But she couldn't find any reason.

"They are businessmen, and they can't do anything harmful to themselves. It was true that the Tan family didn't have any business related to A city, nor did they have any enmity with the Hua Group. Is it because of the marriage between me and the Xu family?" Heidy murmured thoughtfully.

Though she thought it over, she still couldn't figure it out. Thus she decided to have a talk with Hearst, trying to figure out whether it was true or not. At the thought of this, she jumped off the swing and headed to her bedroom.

When she came to the study and opened the door, she saw that Hearst was frowning tightly and tapping on the table with his fingertips. It seemed that he was thinking about something. Instead of heading forward, she waited for him.

Ten minutes later, he seemed to be more at ease. Seeing that, Heidy walked up to him with a smile. She came to his back, put her hands around his neck and rested her chin on his neck. Then, Hearst turned to look at her with a slight smile on his face, "What's wrong?"

Tilting her head to one side, Heidy said with a giggle, "Nothing. I just want to have a chat with you. Are you free now?"

"What if I'm busy?" said Hearst, raising his eyebrows.

Pursing her lips in a serious manner, she said wittily, "I'll wait for you. I have plenty of time at night to chat with you."

After kissing her on the back of her hand, he smiled and said, "It's more important to talk with you." As soon as he finished his words, he turned around, put Heidy on his lap and wrapped her arms around her waist. Though she had been pregnant for more than two months, she still had a slim waist.

With her hands still around his neck, she looked into his eyes and deliberately asked calmly, "How is the relationship between your family and Xu family? Are there any other business dealings between the two families?"

When he heard her, something flashed through his eyes. He remained calm and said, "Not bad. As for other things, I don't know."

Surprised, she looked at him and asked, "You don't know? Why?"

"I seldom go home and I never interfere with their business," said Hearst shortly.

Thinking of the stiff atmosphere last time she met his family, she nodded and said, "You don't get on well with your brothers and sisters, do you?"

Putting his hands on the back of her head, he said calmly, "We have the same father but a different mother, do you think we will get along well?"

Heidy nodded approvingly. She had wanted to know something from Hearst, but now she found it was in vain. Lowering her eyes, she whispered, "I see... As far

Mr. Jacob gave Mr. Denny a big gift the night before yesterday..."

Before she finished, Jacob looked at the assistant angrily, as if blaming him for revealing the secret. "I thought Mrs. Heidy disdained to bribe. It seems that we are same," said Jacob dismissively.

With her eyes squinting slightly, Heidy said with a sweet smile, "Bribe? I'm not interested in that. I just did him a small favor and told him about that. Mr. Jacob, you should not use your tricks anymore."

Jacob suddenly understood what she meant and he was in a rage. Seeing the arrogance and proud expression on Heidy's face, Jacob's angry face suddenly changed, he then said with a smile on his face. "You won't be complacent for long, Heidy. You will suffer so soon."

Making a gesture of "please", she replied calmly, "I'll wait."

He stepped forward, squinted his eyes, and said with a sneer, "You are close to Hearst, aren't you? Try to enjoy the happiness now, and soon you will have the taste of falling from heaven to hell."

Hearing what he said, Heidy's heart thumped, but she still kept calm on the face. She replied calmly, "Even if I fall into hell, I will turn into a ghost to cling to you. Since the moment you ruined the construction and put the Hua Group in crisis, you are bound to pay for what you have done."

Hearing this, Jacob calmly said, "Even if there is retribution, there will not be only me. Heidy, just wait and see. You will even be unable to laugh at that time. " Jacob snorted and walked towards the elevator.

Seeing the door close slowly, Heidy stood there coldly. "Boss, what was that supposed to mean?" Warren asked softly.

Staring ahead, Heidy said in a low voice, "Well, I know. Just as he said, the project was probably..." Heidy didn't say anything, but clenched her fists.

If the Tan family got involved in the project and hurt the Hua Group, what would she do? At the moment, she didn't know the answer.
