The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 86: Who Are You
Helen said these words, hoping Old Master Hawthorne would catch her implied aning, but whether he really didn’t notice or was playing dumb, he didn’t pick up the hint as usual; he just smiled.
Helen bit her lip, "Grandfather, when I returned to the country, I went to the company to see Julian. Julian’s temperant still seems the sa as before."
Old Master Hawthorne nodded, "He has been like this since childhood, cold and distant. Not just outsiders, even as his grandfather, I can’t stand him."
"Not really, Julian is just cold on the outside but warm on the inside."
As they talked, Helen naturally ntioned her purpose in coming to the Hawthorne Family today.
"But grandfather, when I went to the Hawthorne Group, I discovered sothing and I’m not sure if I should tell you."
Old Master Hawthorne asked, "What is making you so hesitant?"
In fact, Old Master Hawthorne had a rough idea; Helen was probably going to talk about Paige.
Long before Julian and Paige got their marriage certificate, Julian had already inford Old Master Hawthorne about Paige’s situation. Old Master Hawthorne was aware.
But Old Master Hawthorne advised Julian that it would be best not to make this public for now. Besides, during this period, Julian’s mother was returning from abroad, so it was inconvenient for Old Master Hawthorne to et Paige.
Although he had no particular thoughts on Paige, Julian’s mother might not be the sa.
If she found out Julian married Paige, it might cause a major uproar.
Helen was unaware of Old Master Hawthorne’s thoughts and hesitated for a mont before saying, "It seems like there’s a woman around Julian."
Seeing Old Master Hawthorne silent, she continued, "Of course, I understand that with Julian’s age, having a woman by his side is normal."
She lowered her head, looking forlorn and wronged, "If Julian finds soone who truly loves him, I would certainly wish them happiness. But this woman is not ordinary; she’s mixed up in the entertainnt circle, has a bad reputation, is surrounded by scandals, and even tricked Julian into opening a company for her. She’s clearly there for Julian’s money and I’m really worried her greed will grow bigger and she might even set her sights on the Hawthorne Group."
Helen couldn’t believe Old Master Hawthorne would really allow such a woman to stay by Julian’s side.
As long as Old Master Hawthorne got involved, that woman wouldn’t be able to remain arrogant, and Julian would certainly give her up.
Unless he decides to give up the Hawthorne Group too.
But with such a big company as the Hawthorne Group, Julian is an ambitious man; how could he possibly give up the company for a woman?
So Paige is destined to be abandoned; her ambition is bound to fail.
Yet, Old Master Hawthorne said, "I trust Julian’s judgnt; perhaps you misunderstand that girl."
Although Old Master Hawthorne hadn’t t Paige yet, he had been paying close attention to her these days.
Regardless of Paige’s family background, with her capabilities, marrying into the Hawthorne Family was more of an elevation for them.
Such talent might even soday bring honor to the country.
"Grandfather, you know , I wouldn’t say such things without seeing it firsthand. Everyone online knows about her; you can check it if you don’t believe . She really doesn’t match Julian, and I don’t want her to ruin Julian, ruin the grandson you see as the best. But I don’t have the position to manage this, so I ca to you today."
She looked at Old Master Hawthorne, wanting a guarantee from him.
Old Master Hawthorne nodded, "I understand, don’t worry, I’m aware of things."
Hearing Old Master Hawthorne say this, Helen thought he would deal with Paige, and she felt relieved.
"Then that’s good."
Helen relaxed, her eyes glead as she said, "Grandfather, there’s another thing I’d like your help with."
"What is it? Tell ."
Helen said, "I feel like I’m not young anymore; I can’t continue being idle. I want to learn how to manage a company, but my father and brother have a generation gap with , and they can’t teach much. So, grandfather, I want to go to the Hawthorne Group and learn from Julian; is that okay?"
This put Old Master Hawthorne in a difficult position; Julian definitely wouldn’t want a woman with intentions bothering him at the company every day.
However, Helen looked at him eagerly, and given this small request, he had no choice but to agree.
"Alright, I’ll arrange it for you."
Helen was arranged into the Hawthorne Group; going to the Hawthorne Group was officially sanctioned.
Moreover, she was brought in under Old Master Hawthorne’s na, and everyone in the company had to give her so leeway.
She imdiately went to find Julian.
But she was stopped by Julian’s secretary, and no matter what Helen said, the secretary wouldn’t let her near Julian’s office this ti.
At that mont, Julian ca out of the elevator, and Helen imdiately went to greet him.
With a cheeky look, she said, "Julian, grandfather arranged for to learn by your side. From today onward, wherever you go, I’ll follow; you won’t find annoying, right?"
From the beginning, she brought up Old Master Hawthorne, giving Julian no room to refuse.
However, Helen was thinking too much.
She may have leveraged Old Master Hawthorne’s influence to enter the Hawthorne Group, but Julian could simply treat her as invisible.
As soon as she finished speaking, Julian walked into the office as if he hadn’t seen her.
Helen’s face imdiately stiffened.
Secretary Jones gave her an awkward smile and quickly followed him in.
Helen could only cough to save face and walked away.
The future is long; there’s no need to rush today, anyway Paige is not her opponent.
But since she ca, she couldn’t just let Paige bounce under her eyes.
So Helen imdiately found an employee eager to please her and said, "Take to the seventeenth floor to have a look."
The employee hesitated, "Miss Hale, the seventeenth and eighteenth floors don’t belong to the Hawthorne Group now; without Penson’s permission, I’m afraid..."
"Not belonging to the Hawthorne Group? That’s just on the surface, how could I not know?"
Without the Hawthorne Group, how could Penson possibly develop?
In Helen’s mind, Penson definitely belonged to the Hawthorne Group.
"Take there; I’ll take responsibility for the consequences."
The employee had no choice but to lead Helen to the seventeenth floor.
However, the seventeenth floor was full of employees, dealing with so trivial matters of Penson.
Paige was not on the seventeenth floor but was in the laboratory on the eighteenth floor.
Helen went to the eighteenth floor, but as soon as she entered the elevator, she was stopped by security at the door.
"Sorry, this is a technology institution of Penson, a highly secretive place, non-essential personnel are not allowed."
"I can’t go in either?" Helen asked.
The security asked, "May I ask who you are?"
