Chapter 242 Happy Cooperation Cynthia, hearing Jack’s reply, curled her lips and smiled, “Take a look at your account.”

Jack immediately took out his phone and found that he had received a transfer message, which was indeed 1 million.

His eyes lit up, and he was instantly relieved.

“Mrs. Smith, I will do my best to collect evidence of Tansy Group’s tax evasion.” Jack made the promise and left happily.

Cynthia breathed a sigh of relief. Suddenly, she saw a slender figure standing behind the plant, blocking her way.

It was Hulda!

Her heart skipped a beat. Did she overhear her conversation with Jack just now?

She was annoyed. She thought that this booth was very secret, with the green plants blocking the front and back. But she didn’t expect that someone was hiding behind the green plants.

Cynthia didn’t know how to treat her. She was Ivan’s lover, and they had a big fight in the past. However, she helped Alston to find her when she was kidnapped by Henry.

So, which side was she on?

When she was in doubt, Hulda pursed her lips and said, “I heard the conversation between you and Jack!”

Cynthia blinked. Sure enough!

“Are you going to tell Ivan?” Cynthia smiled calmly, “I will ruin Tansy Group this time. I bet you don’t like it.”

Hulda frowned, struggled for a while, and finally raised her head. She looked at Cynthia firmly, “I won’t tell him. What I want to say is that I can help you. I want to leave Ivan and Tansy Group, but I don’t want to leave so easily. Do you understand what I mean?”

Cynthia lowered her head and then smiled slightly, “Hope we have a happy cooperation!”

Hulda breathed a long sigh and smiled brightly.

When Cynthia saw this smile, she was relieved.

“Do you want to drink something together?” Cynthia asked. Hulda was taken aback, and then smiled and nodded, “Okay!”

It was rare for the two of them to sit face to face, with a peaceful mind and without any intrigue. The atmosphere between them was quiet and beautiful.

Hulda stirred the coffee. She raised her eyes slightly and looked at Cynthia.

She looked really beautiful. Everyone said that she and Cynthia looked alike. She was only pretty, but Cynthia was delicate and exquisite.

“I haven’t thanked you for helping Alston find me. Maybe I wouldn’t have come back safely if it weren’t for you.”

Hulda’s hand holding the coffee cup tightened, and she stumbled a bit when she spoke, “You’re welcome. I’ve done a lot of sorry things to you before. I should be the one who apologized to you. Besides, Henry and the others were too despicable this time. As a woman, I can’t stand it.”

After she finished speaking, she thought of Alston, and asked hesitantly, “Although I don’t know whether I should ask, it has been several days since you were rescued, why is there no news about Alston? Ivan is preparing to send someone to investigate.”

Cynthia’s expression froze, and her expression was a little flustered, “What did you say? What is Ivan going to do?”

She was a little emotional. Hulda froze for a moment and instantly understood. Something must have happened to Alston!

That’s right, if nothing happened to Alston, Cynthia would not deal with Tansy Group alone. Alston had always protected her so well.

“What happened to Alston?” Hulda asked.

Cynthia hesitated for a moment and said sorrowfully, “He fell off the cliff. We don’t know if he’s alive or dead!”

“How could it be!” Hulda exclaimed. In her eyes, Alston was omnipotent. All trouble would be solved easily by him. Who would have thought that something would happen to him?

“Have you sent someone to look for him?”

“Yes. We’ve searched everywhere, but we haven’t found any trace of him. We’ve asked the nearby people, but there’s no news.”

Cynthia held the cup, a little frustrated.

She didn’t know why she said so much to Hulda. She had always behaved confidently in front of the others.

She hinted to herself repeatedly, saying that Alston would be fine. At night, she worried him so much and cried till dawn. During the day, when the sun rose, she still had to smile and say to everyone, he was fine.

These negative emotions had accumulated in her heart, and she felt that she would collapse sooner or later.

Hulda didn’t know how to comfort her, so she sat silently with her for a while. When Cynthia was in a better mood, they discussed how to deal with Clare and his son.

Before leaving, Cynthia said to Hulda, “If Ivan finds anything, please tell me. I’ll make preparations in advance.”

“Okay!” Hulda didn’t hesitate and directly agreed. Since they had reached a cooperation, she was responsible for telling Cynthia about Ivan’s movements.

Cynthia got in the car and left.

Hulda went back to Ivan’s villa. As soon as she entered the door, she saw him talking to Henry excitedly. Seeing her coming in, he paused and then spoke as usual.

“When you completely take over Miller Group, we will unite. Smith Group will not be our opponent. At that time, the entire Jadney city will be ours.”

When Henry thought of the scene at that time, his expression became a little excited.

“It’s a pity that the old–fashioned George family in Coast City won’t see what we are like at that time. Otherwise, they will definitely regret choosing that b*stard Cain.”

Ivan patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, “Don’t worry. When we have firmly established our foothold in Jadney City, we will go to Coast City and pull Cain down. At that time, you will have the George family.”

“Yes, yes, that’s true!” Henry laughed happily. His face was full of complacency.

Hulda silently poured red wine into their empty glasses, and stepped aside.

Ivan and Henry no longer cared about Hulda at all. During this period, she kept her own law and order, and they were relieved of her.

Hulda watched them talking eloquently, with a slight mockery in her eyes.

The two idiots! They really thought that Smith Group could be replaced so easily! If Clare knew about Ivan’s decision, he would jump up in anger and stop him resolutely. Unfortunately, he didn’t care much about Tansy Group’s affairs now. Ivan had long been displeased with his father’s conservative style of acting in the past, and he did all these things without telling him.

“By the way, we haven’t seen Alston recently.” Henry asked after taking a sip of wine.

Hulda’s heart trembled. Although she lowered her head, she listened carefully.

“Last time I told those people to kidnap Cynthia. I didn’t expect they failed. Their plan was leaked out for some reason, and the whole group was arrested. They are a bunch of drunks.”

Ivan quietly listened to Henry’s complaints. He held the red wine and sneered, “We underestimated Alston. He sent people to guard all traffic fortress of the city. Of course, their plan wouldn’t work.”

Henry smacked his mouth and nodded thoughtfully, but then a smile appeared on his face, “Fortunately, those people caught Cherry. We used this incident to blackmail Jane and bought Miller Group with only 10 million. Hahahaha.”

He finally remembered what he had just asked, “Alston hasn’t come out recently. Does he know that we ordered those people to kidnap Cynthia, and he is planning something?”

Cynthia got in the car and left.
