Chapter 74
Quincy immediately pulled Hannah to sit down. She then said to smooth things over. “I think you’ve grown into a beautiful lady after studying abroad for two years. I could not recognize yfirst, let alone Francis.”
“Yeah Woody also played along. “There is a saying of girls undergo a dramatic transformation during their teens. Hannah is getting more beautiful and outstanding. I really regret not having a daughter back then after seeing you
Zachary, who was playing games beside them, whispered that Woody could just make another baby now. He thought, “It’s not like you’re unable to do so. You’re just trying to be polite by saying that. What a hypocrite man.”
At this time, Hannah had her emotions being calmed down by Woody and Quincy.
They kept chatting with each other.
From time to time. Hannah glanced at Francis, who had been playing on his phone. Her eyes were full of unhidden
affection
Woody and Quincy looked at each other, both realizing the determined smile showed in their eyes.
Zachary stretched himself after finishing playing his mobile game and said, “I’m starving to death. When is the lunch?”
“Did you starve to death in your previous life that you have to complain now?” Winston scolded him angrily.
Zachary was speechless and thought, “Why do I get scolded for wanting to eat?”
Isaac touched his stomach and said, “Great–Grandpa, I’m hungry too.”
Winston changed his expression in an instant and coaxed with a smile, “Oh, Isaac! You’re hungry. Well then, let’s go to eat now. We can’t have you get hungry.”
After saying that, Winston ordered the meal to be served and held Isaac’s hand to the dining room as if he was afraid that Isaac could not find the way.
Zachary was speechless again and thought, “Why is he treating the differently from Isaac?”
On the dining table, Isaac sat next to Winston
Beside Winston sat Woody and Quincy, who sat next to Hannah,
Francis and Zachary sat on the other side of the table.
Hannah and Francis were facing each other. They could see the other when t
n they raised their eyes.
Despite that, Hannah looked at Francis countless times and did not see him pay attention to her.
Gradually, Hannah’s expression turned gloomy.
Shortly afterward, Quincy noticed Hannah’s mood and quickly said, “Hannah, your father said last time that he was interested in having you come to work at Gurray Corp. for training. What do you think of that?”
Hannah glanced at Francis and nodded. “I want to come too.”
Quincy smiled and said. “You are the national champion of Legendary Hero’s game competition. It happens that the Company Francis is in charge of is developing a game project. You can help him since you’re a suitable candidate.”
“Thanks…” However, before she could finish thanking Quincy, Francis immediately made her shut up with his interruption.

Chapter 74
Hannaly’s face turned pale, even if she could endure and bear the situation.
She thought. “How could Francis do this to me? We grew up together, but he had always acted so indifferent to me. We haven’t seen each other for more than two years now, and now her
the friendship we shared growing up?”
Quincy’s expression also looked very unpleasant.
She did not expect Francis to be such an asshole.
its me like a complete stranger. Did he not care about
Although Francis had been indulged by her all these years to act like a hedonist, he could indeed control himself in terms of hust toward women.
If it were not for the accident six years ago and Isaac being born, Quincy really suspected that Francis was infertile.
However, even if he was infertile, she had to let him marry Hannah.
Otherwise, she did not know the other way to get Francis‘ share into her hands.
Quincy thought for a while and said to Winston, Mr. Winston Gurray, you see, I have promised Hannah’s father before and let Hannah enter Francis’s company with her skills. She will definitely help Francis a lot.”
“That’s right, Francis Winston nodded in agreement. “It’s not like your company would go bankrupt after paying to hire one more person.”
Before Francis could say anything, Winston waved his hand. “Well, I’ll make the decision. Hannah, go report to Francis company directly tomorrow. If he bullies you, come to me. I’ll deal with this rascal.”
Hannah immediately smiled warmly, “Thank you, Mr. Winston Gurray”
She was elegantly staid while calm and gentle at the same time.
Winston was very satisfied with her behavior.
Moreover, she was from the Xanders family and grew up together with Francis as childhood friends. She did not even mind Francis’s bad temper.
Hannah was the best choice as Winston’s granddaughter–in–law
As for Francis, Winston thought his feelings did not matter at all “Since he said that he does not like women at all anyway, Winston thought so.
However, just after Winston and Quincy decided to let Hannah work at Francis company, the atmosphere around Francis turned tense.
He furrowed his eyebrows as if they were covered with dark clouds.
It was the prelude to the coming storm.
The next second, Francis suddenly stood up and looked at Winston with darkened eyes.
He said. “This is a decision you had made. If anything happens, don’t come to me.
After that, he left directly.
This rascal Winston felt furious and glared at Francis.
Quincy immediately comforted Hannah. “Hannah, don’t mind him. As you know. Francis has been like this since he was at child, so I would say that he needs a girl as gentle and delicate as you around him. With you by his side, his character can

certainly be much better
Hannah smiled gently, but she felt bitter in her heart.
She thought, “I had failed to change him for so many years. Can Ir
do it now? No! I must be able to!”
Π
Hannah’s eyes suddenly became firm.
She had persisted for so many years, and no other man except Francis could grab her attention.
No matter what, she had to marry into the Gurray family. She had to marry Francis and become his only wife.
When Francis and Samantha had lunch in the early noon, Yarris suddenly visited.
Obviously, he had something to tell.
Yet, he kept hesitating and did not speak.
Francis glanced at him and said, “No matter what you want to say in the future, you can say it in front of Samantha.”
Yarris swallowed
He always felt that Francis was especially gentle when he said Samantha’s name.
It was as if Francis was eating sugar when saying that, which made Yarris sick of it from the excessive sweetness.
However, he still wondered if it was really okay to just say everything in front of Samantha.
He thought, “After all, we have so many secrets. Isn’t Boss trusting Ms. Johansson too much?”
Yarris fixed his gaze and said, “There will be a Sleeping Stone being auctioned in the underground auction house tonight.”
Samantha was shocked and thought, “Sleeping stone? Didn’t I gift it to Seth two years ago? How could it fall into the hands of an underground auction house in Elstunda?”
Samantha thought of the scene where Seth was injured and in a coma, lying on the white hospital bed. She felt as if something was blocked in her heart.
She felt panic and a trace of bitterness in her mind.
She wondered what Seth had experienced after she left.
Francis naturally noticed the sudden change in Samantha and did not respond to Yarris for a moment.
He just stared at Samantha the whole time.

Yarris knew the importance of the stone to Francis, so he had no choice but to continue his words, “Bows, we know couldn’t sleep well. This Sleeping Stone is said to help people fall asleep quickly and improve their sleep quality. Therefore, we must get it tonight!”
Samantha thought, “Francis couldn’t sleep well? Why didn’t I know about it?”
Samantha turned around to look at Francis in surprise.
Francis smiled at her and said while comforting her, “It’s nothing serious. Don’t worry about me.”
Samantha was speechless. She thought, “Did I say I’m worried about you?”
Yarris looked at these two handsome and beautiful people with complicated expressions and just wanted to scream at the

Yarro was realis afraid that Francis would miss such an important thing as a Sleeping Stone for love, so he was left with no
