Hawke Corporation.
"Did you see the news? Our CEO Damon and Victoria Don called off their engagent!"
"Of course, I saw it! It’s today’s headline!"
"I heard all collaborations between Hawke Corporation and Thorne Group have stopped, and even Mrs. Thorne has been detained for questioning."
"Oh my God, what on earth is going on?"
"..."
The whispering of the employees filled the air.
Elara Don poured herself a cup of water in the pantry, listening closely with her ears pricked.
Why so suddenly?
How could Damon Hawke call off his engagent with Victoria Don?
How did the Don Family get into trouble?
Sothing flashed through her mind, and Elara Don’s expression changed slightly. After thinking for a mont, she took a docunt and headed towards the CEO’s office.
In the CEO’s office, Damon Hawke had just arrived at the company and was dealing with affairs.
The man, even when working, remained handso and aloof, exuding an air of unapproachable authority.
A knock sounded on the door. Without looking up, he said coolly, "Co in."
Elara Don walked in, holding a docunt.
"Mr. Hawke, I’ve adjusted the fragrance blend. Please take a look."
Elara Don handed a docunt to Damon Hawke, speaking up.
Damon Hawke paused, only then realizing it was Elara Don who had entered.
He glanced at her, took the docunt, flipped through it, and handed it back to her, "It’s good."
"Alright."
Elara Don received it and pressed her lips, "Mr. Hawke, is Charlie alright now? Did they find the kidnappers?"
At these words, Damon Hawke nodded, "They found them."
Found them!
Elara Don hurriedly asked, "Who are they? Why did they kidnap Charlie? Was it for money?"
The woman looked eager, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
Damon Hawke raised his eyebrows, not rushing to answer but instead stood up and sat down on the sofa.
"Pour a glass of water."
After a busy morning, he was tired.
Seeing her inexplicably put him in a good mood.
Such a lordly attitude!
Elara Don was anxious but could only obediently go to pour him a glass of water.
"Here’s your water, can you tell now?"
Damon Hawke leaned slightly, took the glass, and took a sip. Looking at her eager little eyes, he finally spoke, "They’re underworld people, soone instructed them to kidnap Charlie, but it wasn’t for money."
Not for money?
Then what for?
Elara Don mused, thinking of the discussions outside, her eyes glimred.
"Mr. Hawke, the kidnapping of Charlie, is it related to the Don Family?"
At this juncture, sothing suddenly happening to the Don Family.
It’s hard not to think in that direction!
But if it really was the Don Family, why would they do it!
It’s utterly incomprehensible!
"You’re smart, it was instigated by soone in the Don Family."
Damon Hawke put down the glass, his face sowhat cold.
Elara Don’s chest heaved, disbelief filling her eyes.
"Why? Why did the Don Family do this? Who exactly from the Don Family did it?"
Even if she had so suspicions in her heart, actually hearing it confird felt absurd.
Charlie is Victoria Don’s biological son, why would the Don Family instruct soone to kidnap him?
"Currently, it seems to be Victoria Don’s mother who hired people, claiming to stand up for Victoria Don, wanting to kidnap Charlie to make you take the bla."
Damon Hawke explained with a faint hint of sarcasm at the corners of his mouth.
Isabella Wolf did it?
Just to make her take the bla?
Is there sothing wrong with this old woman’s head!
That’s her own grandson!
Isn’t she afraid sothing might happen to the child, and her daughter will fall out with her after finding out?
Elara Don clenched her fists, her red lips pressed tight.
However...
"As of now? Mr. Hawke, do you an it’s still uncertain whether it was Isabella Wolf?"
If it’s uncertain, why would things happen to the Don Family?
And he canceled his engagent with Victoria Don?
He shouldn’t be such a rash man!
So, is there more to this?
Elara Don looked at the teasing at the corner of Damon Hawke’s mouth, her heart skipped a beat.
Since childhood, Isabella Wolf has been extrely doting on Victoria Don.
Almost all of Victoria Don’s requests have been t.
This has resulted in Victoria Don’s spoiled and willful nature.
So could the kidnapping of Charlie be Victoria Don’s own orchestration? Then, after the sche unraveled, she pushed the bla onto her own mother!
This is too outrageous!
Thinking to this point, Elara Don’s expression shifted, her widened eyes full of disbelief.
Damon Hawke hasn’t spoken, just waiting for Elara Don to work through it herself.
This woman is quite smart.
Now, she should understand where the key lies.
Elara Don focused hard on processing this matter, looking at the distinguished man in front of her, swallowing hard, "Sorry, it’s my fault Charlie got hurt. Is he alright now? Can I go see him?"
No matter who from the Don Family hired people to kidnap Charlie, it all started because of her.
She felt very guilty!
The woman’s exquisite face was full of apology, her bright eyes carried a hint of cautious probing.
Damon Hawke’s eyes moved slightly. He stood up and approached her, leaning down slightly.
"My son got into trouble indeed because of you. If you want to make it up to him, fulfill his wish and be my girlfriend. As long as you’re my girlfriend, I can take you to see him anyti."
He had broken off the engagent with Victoria Don!
The son had wanted her to be his mommy before.
Now, would she refuse again?
The man’s eyes were deep, his tall figure carrying a familiar fragrance and an innate aura of authority made Elara Don hold her breath unconsciously.
She unconsciously leaned back, trying to keep a distance from him.
"Mr. Hawke, this joke isn’t funny at all!"
What a joke?
Not to ntion their statuses don’t match at all.
Besides, he just broke off the engagent with Victoria Don, and if she gets together with him now, wouldn’t that drown her in the public’s criticism?
"Elara Don, do I look like I’m joking?"
Damon Hawke reached out with his long arm and pulled her into his embrace.
The heated gaze landed on her face, full of aggression.
Elara Don’s heart pounded irregularly, as if it was going to leap out of her chest.
The man’s head slowly approached her, the color in his eyes growing darker.
Was he going to... kiss her?
Elara Don blushed and pushed him away.
"Mr. Hawke, I still have work, I’ll get busy now."
Calm down!
She couldn’t lose herself just because soone looked too handso.
She and he weren’t on the sa level!
Watching Elara Don flee in panic, Damon Hawke slowly straightened his body, a smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
"Elara Don, Charlie fell down the slope, temporarily lost his mory, and has been taken back to the old residence by his grandparents to recuperate. If you think it over, co find , I’ll take you to see him."
He said this to make her feel even more guilty.
Charlie temporarily lost his mory because of her.
If she truly wanted to make ands, she would agree to the child’s request.
If she agreed to his request, he would imdiately take her to et his parents!
Charlie actually temporarily lost his mory!
How could this happen!
The hand on the door paused, Elara Don’s face changed.
It’s all the Don Family’s fault!
This enmity, she would definitely repay!
As for Damon Hawke’s proposal!
She needed to think it over so more!
