Chapter 613

Author: Orange Long
Alanna often saw him on TV and in the news.

"Just call him Grandpa."

Alanna whispered, "Hello, Grandpa."

Jeremy stared at Alanna and was slightly dazed. After a moment, he nodded. "Nice to meet you. Come visit us often in the future."

Alanna smiled and agreed.

Benedict then introduced her to the other family members.

When they approached Jeff's third uncle, Gwyneth couldn't help rolling her eyes.

She was about to say something when she saw Hades' gaze sweep over in their direction.

She quickly swallowed the words on the tip of her tongue.

Even now, she felt a pang in her heart whenever she saw Hades.

It wasn't just Hades. She felt the same way towards Benedict and Jeff's parents.

She wondered what kind of trick Alanna had used on them. They were treating a nobody like her better than her own daughter.

Gwyneth muttered inwardly and walked away.

After Benedict introduced Alanna to everyone, Jill pulled her aside.

"I heard from Hector that you've handed over all your work."

    As soon as Alexander finished speaking, Hades sneered."Mr. Maxwell Senior, this matter was decided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the disciplinary committee. What does it have to do with Alanna?"Alexander's face instantly fell."Hades, no matter what, Holly is still your fiancée!"Hades' expression turned dark. "I have only proposed to one woman in my life, and that is Alanna. Mr. Maxwell Senior, you'll be humiliated if you insist on talking nonsense.""Hades, you ...""That's enough!" Benedict finally couldn't stand it anymore. He shouted, "Do you think the Summons Manor is a place where you can do as you please? If you don't want to stay here, then get out!"Alexander glanced at Hades and looked away.He then boldly went forward and presented the gift he prepared to Benedict."Mr. Simmons Senior, Holly has grown up under your care. She was indeed wrong about what happened last time. But I hope you won't ruin a child's future just like that."Benedict snorted. Befo

    Alanna simply smiled. "Mrs. Simmons, Grandpa, Great-Grandpa, thank you for defending me earlier."She said with reddened eyes.Since she was young, she had envied other people's families.She envied others for having fathers. Later, she envied others for having fathers who didn't hit their mothers. Then, she envied others for having mothers.She had never experienced much family love.But she didn't expect that the Simmonses would defend her today. It was as if she were part of their family.Jill's heart ached even more.She approached Alanna and hugged her."Silly kid, we were just telling the truth."After coming out of the room, Hades pinched Alanna's chin and carefully wiped away her tears."Were you so touched by their words?"Alanna pushed his hands away. She did not know what was wrong with her. She just couldn't help but want to cry.She wiped her own tears. Just as she was about to say something, she heard someone calling her name."Alanna."Hudson saw Alanna and

    Upon hearing Olivia's words, Holly felt a bit embarrassed."Mrs. Campbell Senior, I didn't mean it that way. I'm just reminding you that Alanna is not a simple woman. Whether you want to take it to heart or not is up to you."After saying that, she gracefully left with her wine glass.Olivia watched as Holly left, her expression gradually darkening.She might seem unfazed, but in fact, she was somewhat worried.Ever since she learned that Alanna from Northlight Group was a young and beautiful girl, she had been feeling somewhat uneasy.Today, Holly's words only added to her discomfort.She waved to the side, and a bodyguard approached her."Investigate everything Hudson did while he was in Jagersville."The bodyguard responded with a hum and left.After the birthday banquet officially started, Benedict summoned Alanna again.He introduced her to the prominent figures of Brunstein City.Seeing Benedict's attitude towards Alanna, everyone was delighted.Who knew she might be

    Alanna wasn't sure how to respond to his words.Since the beginning, she didn't consider this child to be Hades' responsibility.In fact, she didn't even plan to let Hades know about the existence of this child at first.She understood that neither her efforts nor Hades' efforts could guarantee the child's safety.She knew better than anyone that the best way now was to go abroad, hide away from those people, and safely give birth to the child.Yet in her current position, if she didn't go on an assignment, going abroad would require layers of approval. Moreover, she would be supervised even if she went.Not to mention there had been no news of an assignment.Getting approval to go abroad was not that easy either.She quietly looked out the window.Her mind was full of the evil gaze of Cyrus' illegitimate child.Hades lightly brushed her cheek with his finger."Don't be afraid. I will protect both of you."Irritated, Alanna pushed his hand away.Hades' mood seemed to lit u

    Hector remained silent. "Your overseas assignment might be postponed for the meantime.""What if I want to apply to go abroad for personal reasons?"Hector replied in a low voice, "You can try, but it will be difficult to get the approval. Also, the process will be lengthy."Alanna sighed softly. "Okay, I understand."Alanna hung up the phone. Hades also came out of the bathroom. He felt somewhat cold.After putting on a set of pajamas, he came to hug Alanna."Aren't you sleepy yet?"Alanna whispered, "Hades, our baby will be okay, right?"Hades hugged her tightly and responded after a while."Yes."Alanna didn't know when she fell asleep. Even in her sleep, her brows were furrowed.Feeling somewhat distressed, Hades hugged her tighter.He swore to himself that he wouldn't let anything happen to her this time.In the following days, Alanna remained busy.But she knew that Hades had arranged many people in the neighborhood.Literally everybody there was Hades' men.He al

    Hades' gaze flickered. "You suspect that he asked you to work in the company to harm your mother?"Alanna nodded."Yes, but the only thing I can't figure out is that my mom had no connection with Edmund at all. Why would Edmund go to such lengths ..."Alanna spoke. Suddenly, she remembered something.Her face turned pale, and she grabbed Hades' hand."What about Tucker? Hades, did you discover anything about Tucker?"Tucker had once told her that her mother was being chased after by someone. Could that person be ... Edmund?Alanna's mind buzzed.She was frightened by her own thoughts.She had always thought that her mother had no connection with Edmund.But she forgot that her mother had amnesia and had no memory of what happened before meeting Tucker.She wondered if it was possible that her mother had known Edmund a long time ago.If that were the case, then everything would make sense.Edmund was after her mother, but Tucker saved her.Did Edmund think her mother was d

    Alanna chuckled. "I don't need big breasts."Hades' eyes darkened. "Well, it's all for the benefit of me and our baby."Alanna replied, "It's for the baby."Hades raised an eyebrow. "But I've tasted them countless times already."Alanna snorted. "Can you stop being so shameless?"Hades was amused.It was snowing outside, so Hades drove cautiously.Hades had his bodyguards escort them.The journey, which normally took less than half an hour, took more than an hour today.Also, Hades had already made arrangements at the hospital.They entered through a private entrance and went directly to the doctor's examination room.After a series of examinations, it was almost noon.Gwyneth came out of the outpatient department and saw Hades walking out of the innermost consultation room with a woman in his arms.Although the woman was wearing a mask and a hat, Gwyneth immediately recognized her by her figure and aura. It was definitely Alanna.However, she thought Alanna's walking pos

    Hollyn had been very troubled recently.She had thought that what Benedict said at the banquet would stir up some response from Olivia. Yet surprisingly, Olivia had endured it. Until now, she hadn't approached Alanna.Moreover, Alanna suddenly quit her job at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It was odd.She knew how responsible Alanna was when it came to work.Not to mention she just took over Winston's job. She should have been even more diligent.Holly wondered why Alanna had chosen to quit her job at such a time.Holly asked around the Ministry of Foreign Affairs but failed to discover anything.Just as she was feeling distressed, Gwyneth's call came."Holly, I have news that will interest you."Holly laughed sarcastically.Everybody knew that as a member of the Simmonses, the position of the third wife is much inferior to that of the first wife."Mrs. Simmons, you sound like you know me well." Gwyneth chuckled."That's of course."Holly's patience was wearing thin.

    He casually picked it up and glanced at it, his eyes filled with displeasure. "Who is this pretty boy?"Alanna looked at the snow outside."Can't you tell? A handsome guy."Hades frowned. "Is he more handsome than me?"Alanna couldn't be bothered to answer him.Hades lowered his eyes and held her waist. "Ms. Jacinto, are you feeling needy?"Alanna furrowed her brows. "Hades, can you be serious?"But Hades shamelessly replied, "If you have any needs, just give me a call. I'll be at your service anytime and anywhere."Alanna glared at him. "Hades, have some dignity."Hades chuckled. "Ms. Jacinto, are you doubting my abilities?"Alanna kicked his leg without hesitation.Hades laughed. "Feeling better now?"Alanna paused before nodding slightly. "Thank you.""Silly girl. Why are you thanking me?" Alanna smiled and got back to her work. She glanced at the man on the other side, who was busy replying to emails on his phone."If you're busy, you don't have to come over here on

    Alanna was surprised. She then looked up at the man before her.She had a guarded expression.The man chuckled and handed her another business card. "I'm Mason Lowe and a classmate of Grayson's. I've heard a bit about you from him. I happened to have a business meeting recently that required translation. Would you be interested in taking up the job?"Alanna remained wary."Mr. Lowe, since you're Grayson's classmate, it would be more convenient to talk to him. I have something to attend to today, so I'll take my leave."With that, she pulled Chelsey and headed out. After their figures disappeared, Mason chuckled."She's quite guarded."He muttered to himself before lighting a cigarette. Just then, his phone rang. A woman's voice came from the other end."Didn't I ask you to approach Alanna? Why haven't you made any progress after such a long time?"Mason took a drag of his cigarette."Do you think it's easy to get close to Alanna? She's always surrounded by bodyguards. I o

    Chelsey didn't know how to comfort Alanna."Ally, you need to move on."Alanna nodded without saying much. There was nothing else she could do.While the doctor examined Chelsey's wound and prescribed her medication, a commotion arose outside.Michel and the dog's owner had followed them to the clinic."Chelsey!"As soon as Michel entered the clinic, he called out.Chelsey gave him a sidelong glance. "What are you doing here?"Michel chuckled. "I came to check on you after hearing you got bitten."Chelsey scoffed. "What for? I got bitten by a dog, not you."Michel clicked his tongue. "Even if we were to bite each other, you would be the one who bit me."Chelsey aimed a kick at him. But before she could reach him, someone shouted, "Michel!"Chelsey immediately retracted her foot and glared at Michel. "Get out of the way. Stop being an eyesore."Michel chuckled. "Chelsey, are you reluctant to kick me?"Without hesitation, Chelsey aimed another kick at him. This time, she hi

    Justin entered the room just in time to hear Alanna's questionHe paused briefly before taking a deep breath and walking up to her."Ms. Jacinto."Alanna turned around and saw Justin coming in with a stack of forms.Her lips twitched. But before she could speak, Justin beat her to it."Ms. Jacinto, what brings you here?" His demeanor was natural, showing no signs of evasion.Alanna pursed her lips and smiled slightly. "I'm here accompanying Chelsey for her shot."With that, she glanced back at the little girl."Is this your daughter?"Justin nodded, his eyes filled with affection as he looked at the girl."Yes, she's my daughter."Alanna's fingers twitched. "May I hold her?"Almost instinctively, the nanny holding the girl took a step back.Alanna's hands froze. She said, "Sorry."Justin's brow furrowed instantly.He glanced at the nanny before explaining softly to Alanna."Aashika was born prematurely and has a very weak immune system. We always disinfect before holdin

    After leaving the detention center, Alanna seemed lost in thought.Although Tucker hadn't revealed much, she couldn't shake off her suspicions about Edmund."Do you think it could be Edmund?" Hades remained silent."The key question now is, if it's Edmund, why would he harm your mother?"Alanna lowered her gaze.Hades was right. She wondered why.Since learning that Tara was being targeted, she had thought of countless possibilities. Who could be behind the threats, and why would anyone want to harm such a fragile woman?But she still had no answers.Hades felt a pang of heartache."We'll find out eventually. Don't worry, if it's him, he'll show his true colors sooner or later."Alanna looked out the window and responded in a hum.Hades looked at her and gently caressed her cheek."Ally, don't feel sad. It hurts me."Alanna brushed his hand away. "Stop touching me all the time."Hades' mouth twitched."I've already asked Margaret to make preparations for the New Year.

    Alanna glanced at him and brushed off his hand.Hades' eyes twinkled with amusement."Is it okay to spend the New Year's Eve together?"Alanna turned her head and looked at the calendar hanging on the wall.It was already mid-December.The New Year was approaching.Their baby was already three months old.If nothing had gone wrong, their New Year's Eve would have been filled with joy.Alanna withdrew her gaze, lowered her head, and straightened her clothes.Hades saw the glimmer of moisture in her eyes when she lowered her head.His heart ached, and he quickly hurried over to hug her."Everything will be fine."Alanna fought back her tears and nodded before pushing him away.Hades looked at her determined expression with a sense of helplessness."Let's go see Tucker. Maybe we can get some information about your mother."Alanna nodded and followed him out.After the two left, Chelsey rolled her eyes in the room."What a world! I have to see them being all lovey-dovey ri

    In Northlight Group at Brunstein City, Edmund listened as his assistant reported everything to him."You mean, Olivia has been investigating Tara recently?"The assistant nodded. "Yes, and she's been very thorough."Edmund's pen snapped in his hand."Besides that, did she find out anything else?""She already found out about Tara's death."Edmund's face turned grim. "Got it."After speaking, he paused briefly. "Prepare something for me, and also, invite Mrs. Campbell to have lunch with me at the company."Olivia arrived at Northlight Group before noon.Before she could enter the office, she heard Edmund making a phone call."Mr. Florentine, I can help stabilize the stock price of Florentine Group with Northlight, but I hope you won't vent your anger on Alanna. Yes, she's important to me. You could say, even more important than Hudson."Olivia's steps abruptly halted. The smile on her face gradually disappeared.It wasn't until Edmund's secretary called out to her that Olivi

    Alanna's grip on her phone tightened slightly."Hades, are you... really okay?"Hades chuckled. "I'm just trying to get some sympathy from you. Is it working?"Alanna pursed her lips and remained silent.Hades chuckled. "Go to bed early."After a pause, he added, "Also, try not to take sleeping pills.""Where are you?"Alanna suddenly asked.Hades was stunned.He glanced at the villa in the distance. "I'm taking a walk outside.""Taking a walk in the dead of winter?"Hades chuckled. "Ms. Jacinto, are you showing concern for me?"Alanna scoffed. "Go ahead and enjoy your walk."Hades quickly responded, "I'm outside handling some business. I just finished and suddenly missed you. So I wanted to call you."Alanna pursed her lips."Hades, we're partners now. From now on, don't hide anything from me."Hades' voice softened."Alright, I won't hide anything from you."Alanna didn't say much and hung up the phone directly.She silently looked at the sleeping pills on the beds

    Afterward, he sneered, extinguished his cigarette, and drove away.Just as he left the residential area, a car suddenly came speeding towards him.Hades jerked the steering wheel.But the car behind him turned around and came back in his direction.Hades narrowed his eyes and stepped on the gas pedal, rushing forward.However, he didn't intend to shake off the car this time.Instead, he maintained a distance that allowed him to keep sight of the car. It was neither too close nor too far. He ensured that the car couldn't catch up with him and he wouldn't lose sight of it.The scenery outside became increasingly desolate.At some point, they were already on the outskirts.Surprisingly, Hades lit a cigarette at this moment.Then, he sent a location to Yves."Come handle the accident."Hades' car suddenly went uphill before rushing down a steep slope.The person in the car behind widened their eyes.Below the steep slope was a wall!They slammed on the brakes.
