The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming
Chapter 119 - 118: Rushing to the Holy Spring
CHAPTER 119: CHAPTER 118: RUSHING TO THE HOLY SPRING
"You know I didn’t mean it that way!" Looking at Gu Han, who had a firm attitude, Elliana Lyle resisted the urge to slap him and sighed heavily.
Although she had learned to drive from Luna, she didn’t have a license and wasn’t very skilled.
"Rest for one night, we’ll leave tomorrow morning."
The next day, 6 a.m.
Knock, knock knock!
The person inside the room impatiently pulled the blanket over their head, yet the knocking continued, "Gu Han, are you up? We should get going?"
"Damn! Annoying woman!"
Gu Han was hired as a driver at the beginning of the month, thinking he could drive luxury cars and impress girls. But he never had time to go out, always on standby for Norman Bennett!
He could still bear with Norman Bennett, smiling while driving, but couldn’t stand Elliana Lyle, a young brat.
Knock, knock knock...
Elliana had been knocking for about ten minutes, yet saw no sign of him getting up, and her call was directly hung up.
She knew Gu Han was doing it on purpose.
At ten in the morning, Gu Han’s door finally opened, and Elliana was still standing at the door.
Gu Han looked a bit surprised, "Miss Lyle. Morning."
"..." Elliana didn’t speak, seemingly holding back something.
Honestly, from such a close distance, this young girl was truly stunning, although not very tall, it didn’t really matter. If only...
"Since you’re awake, can we leave now?"
She held back her frustration. In the morning, she had considered finding another driver, but in this small town, where could she quickly find a suitable person?
Only then did Gu Han snap out of his fantasy, hurriedly saying, "Alright, Miss Lyle, let’s eat something first, I’m quite hungry."
"Okay."
After the so-called breakfast, Gu Han was finally willing to leave, humming a tune as he drove.
She sat in the back seat, repeatedly trying to contact Norman Bennett.
Buzz buzz~
It was a message from Luna.
Luna (Master): "I went to the police station, asked a few people from the loan company, they said they don’t know, the person in charge is John Shaw, but ever since John Shaw tried calling your sister yesterday and got hung up, he’s gone silent and won’t say anything. Also, where did Li Si go?"
Miaow: "I haven’t seen Li Si recently either, could it be that John Shaw sold Nancy’s debt too?"
Luna (Master): "Possibly, I’m still verifying it. How are you? Where are you?"
She glanced up at Gu Han, holding back her anger as she typed.
Miaow: "Still far away."
Luna (Master): "Be careful on your own, and once you find Norman Bennett, come back quickly. It’s been raining nonstop in Wyen recently, something’s bound to happen sooner or later."
Pikachu♪~
At this moment, Victor King’s call came in, and Elliana was briefly stunned.
Honestly, she hadn’t been in touch with Victor King since New Year, she almost forgot she was a celebrity.
"Hello, Ms. King."
"Elliana, it’s like this, Joy is so busy on her side..."
Victor King sounded a bit awkward. She’s been passing all of Elliana’s invitations to Joy, and now Joy is overwhelmed...
Elliana immediately understood what Victor meant and said, "It’s okay, Ms. King, go ahead."
"Oh, it’s like this, there’s a youth campus film ’Time with You’, inviting you. The director, Reese Young, is also a well-known director in the country and it’s a big investment from Radiant Light under Melody Harmony."
After Victor King finished speaking, she thought for a moment, then asked, "When does filming start?"
"No rush, early next month."
"Alright, take the offer for me, and send me the script in electronic form afterwards."
After hanging up, Elliana was about to reply to Luna.
Screeeeech―――!
The piercing sound of hard braking startled her, making her lurch forward. Thankfully, she was wearing a seatbelt, so nothing happened.
Looking up, she realized there was a traffic jam.
"Gu Han, go down and see what’s going on," Elliana instinctively said.
...
Gu Han didn’t respond, with his hand on the steering wheel, showing no intention of getting out.
"..."
Getting out of the car, Elliana looked around. They were on a country road, surrounded by trees and fields, with light drizzle falling.
She found an honest-looking uncle standing by a truck and asked, "Hello, uncle, do you know what’s happening up ahead?"
"The road ahead collapsed, a big truck got stuck, there’s no way for our big trucks to pass, so we just stopped," the uncle said with a helpless expression.
Only then did she notice the uncle’s truck was loaded with goods. The delay must be frustrating.
Then the uncle pointed to her car, saying, "Your small car should be able to get through from the side, several cars have already passed."
"Okay, thank you, uncle."
"No problem, no problem."
Back in the car, she told Gu Han, "The road ahead collapsed, a big truck got stuck, we can get through from the side."
"Alright, but if the car gets scratched, you’ll have to explain to Mr. Norman," he didn’t want to take the blame.
"..." Elliana exhaled, "I said drive!"
...
South City Roland Agency Co., Ltd.
"How did Radiant Light become part of Melody Harmony?"
In the office, Nathan Dawn roared, and Cari stood at the door, slightly bowing her head.
Nathan Dawn held documents in his hand, raising them mid-air, before finally throwing them away from Cari.
This surprised Cari a bit. If it were Shane Southwell at this moment, her forehead would probably be bleeding.
Her forehead often got "accidentally injured" by Shane Southwell, so she always kept bangs to cover her forehead.
Nathan Dawn sat down, massaging his temples.
Radiant Light was an emerging big company, originally just a streaming platform, now equal to Roland.
He had intended to cooperate, especially with the highly anticipated ’Time with You’, planning to send Eleanor Llyod.
But what Radiant Light announced on Weibo today really infuriated him!
The phone screen still displayed the original announcement.
@Radiant Light Group
#Radiant Light Group announces management team adjustments as follows: The current Co-CEO Tan Peng and some senior management team members honorably retire, resigning from their current management positions. Vice President Vincent King of Melody Harmony and Rob Zephyr, CEO of White Goose Films, are appointed as CEO and Executive Director of Radiant Light Group, respectively.
Cari picked up the files from the ground, placed them on the table, and explained, "Vice President, maybe Radiant Light’s acquisition of major streaming platforms was financially supported by Melody Harmony behind the scenes."
Nathan Dawn didn’t respond. The day before yesterday, he saw Melody Harmony sell White Goose to Radiant Light, found it odd at first, but now everything made sense.
Norman Bennett, the old fox!
"Alright, go and call Eleanor Llyod."
Truth be told, Nathan Dawn was extremely annoyed with Eleanor Llyod, who thought she was clever, using a small account to attack Elliana Lyle behind his back, only to get caught and directly receive a lawyer’s letter from Elliana’s lawyer.
He tried his best to clean up Eleanor Llyod’s mess to minimize the loss.
Half an hour later, Eleanor Llyod hesitantly knocked on the door.
A few days ago, Nathan Dawn had a huge outburst at her, coupled with the overwhelming work burden, she really wanted to escape from there.
"I’m planning to send you abroad to take the lead role in "Spy Conspiracy 2." You need to transform your career. Of course, whether it works out depends on your ’effort’."
The word ’effort’ was heavily stressed by Nathan Dawn, making Eleanor Llyod’s face turn pale!
