Chapter 204 - Both girls can't wait

Shane's file was aired the next day. Everything was like a nightmare to him. He couldn't believe this is happening.

How the hell did things turned out this way? Ethan knew the people he's partnering with in the work will get out of it. His main purpose for this was to cause trouble for Shane and made him lose their back up.

And also, it will deliver him into his hand.

"Didn't you say we wouldn't get dragged in this? how on earth did you get messed up to this rate. Are you too big to seek help, that you couldn't tell us you need one?

If this escalated more than it should, you will be silenced. Take care of the mess and forget about getting any men from us." The caller said to him and ended the call.

Shane wouldn't dare retort. He's actually grateful inwardly that they said if things escalated more than this.

The fact that they haven't sent someone to assassinate him and gave him a call is indeed a blessing.

Immediately the call ended, Hannah's one came in. He cursed under his breath before picking it up.

"What's going on?" Hannah sound restless and very worried. "I saw the news, my parents saw the news. They were against this from the start, claiming I'm probably having an affair with you, which is why I'm acting strong headed and willing to believe in the company and now you proved them right at some part.

They said it's a bad idea and you really proved them right. How can you do all that? those poor people shouldn't go through all that.

Well, that's none of my concern. My main concern right now is my money." Hannah ended her speech, breathing heavily.

Shane, who has been waiting for her to speak her mind and also planning excuses spoke up, "those were made up. I didn't do any of that and also, your investment is safe." Shane said.

Hannah laughed out loud, "safe? tell that to my parents whom are already planning to come back into the country to query me." she said in an annoyed tone.

"Can I speak with them? perhaps they will calm after my assurance. Please be rest assured that your money is safe. Times like these often came about in the business world. It will pass." Shane said.

"Save the sermon please. I believe I've tried my best, did all I can to help and now you want me to regret it. Anyway, I'm sure you wouldn't want to add them to your lists of enemies." Hannah said in a threatening tone.

Shane took a deep breath, "can I have their contact information? I could ask them for a meeting and explained things to them. Trust me that everything will be fine." Shane proposed.

Hannah went silent for a while before speaking up. "They were in California right now. If you're willing to take the trip, I could arrange a meeting, but please make sure you managed to convince them.

All I did was invest, I don't want to mess my relationship with my parents because of it." Hannah said.

Shane didn't know where this angel descent from. He thought it will be hard, but all he had to do was convince the parents, as it seems Hannah is understanding of his situation.

"I will make the trip miss Hannah. I will talk to them personally." Shane said.

"I will make an appointment with them this Friday, I hope you will be able to make it." Hannah said and ended the call.

Shane breathe a sigh of relief, 'that went well.' he thought.

He wondered who could dare do that to him. Who could be capable enough to find out about those deeds and brave to the extent of showing it to the world.

He didn't even know where to start from, because his company is in uproar since the news release.

He has people contacting the people in charge to take down the news as it's all lies. His luck right now is that those people involved will also be working on taking care of it, since it wasn't only his name in the news.

....

Diana was in her seat, typing on her keypad and ignoring the stares from the workers. One of them has bravely walked up to her and asked if everything was fine with her.

Diana smiled and told her she's perfectly fine, as she can see. Her phone beeped after.

She picked it up and saw it's an inbox message from Jenny, 'Emily, I've been so worried about you. Didn't you see my call? why didn't you call me back? are you hurt?' she bombard her with questions and add a crying emote at end.

Diana would have felt touched if she didn't suspect the girl to be lying. Another inbox came in again, 'Emily, I was so scared for you.'

Diana didn't know who's watching, so her expression remained the same. She replied to her message, 'I'm sorry for the worry babe, I went to visit my parents.'

Jenny replied once again, 'thank goodness! I couldn't sleep well since you left.'

'Cheesy.' Diana replied with an emoji of an eye rolls.

'I'm being serious babe, but can we talk more about it at my place after work? I also want to know how your visit with your parent went, probably talk about them.' Jenny replied with a flushed face emote.

Diana already guessed this. For some reason, she knew the girl will invite her over today, 'sure, let's meet at your place, but I won't talk about my parent, perhaps you should talk about yours.' Diana turned the table around.

'Anything for you! by the way babe, you look extra hot today.' Jenny replied. she has really planned to get rid of Diana once and for all, as the girl has spent over three month and still breathing, what a privilege.

Diana send a 3 blushing emojis in response. After their text, the two have prepared themselves for this day and couldn't wait to see it unfold
