Female Novel
Chapter 156
Ned was unsure of himself. He didn't know how he'd handle his relationship with Angeline if he learned that the girl was his daughter.
"Right, I'll visit you in Cloudsville tomorrow before heading back to Oceanford," Angeline said, laughing as she spoke on the phone with James.
"I'll go straight to the lab, okay?"
"Great!" James responded cheerfully.
"I won't tell them. You can give them a big surprise. Tomorrow is the alumni exchange meeting at Cloudsville College. Many scholars who graduated from Cloudsville College will be back. I'll introduce you. You might find their help useful later on!"
Angeline smiled warmly at the thought of her seniors like Reese, Marion, and Alva.
"These years, it's because of your help and Professor Sharpe's that Vitality Biotech has reached its current state. James... Thank you."
Angeline sincerely gave her thanks.
"What's with the formalities? We put in the effort, but you've rewarded us generously!"
James laughed.
"The anonymous donation to our lab these past few years—that was you, wasn't it? And didn't you also provide the unique scholarship for the biology department of Cloudsville College?"
In addition to that, Angeline had also sponsored many children from impoverished rural areas over the years. She hoped they could leave their villages, study well, and become valuable members of society.
"I'm just doing what I should," Angeline said with a smile.
"Enough said. Come early tomorrow! I'll be waiting for you in the lab," James chirped.
After ending the call, Angeline's mobile vibrated with another incoming one.
She answered, "Hello."
"Ms. Emmerson, this is Taylor. The press conference was very successful today, and the senior executives were happy and drank a bit too much. Mr. Lawson is drunk. However, my mother is hospitalized, and I'm currently looking after her. Could you please pick Mr. Lawson up?" Taylor asked tentatively.Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
"Where are you?"
Angeline put down the glass in her hand, walked to the entrance to change her shoes, then turned back to get a coat for Sean.
"I'll send the location to your phone. It's in room 8918 at Clapham Club. Thank you!" Taylor said.
After getting into the car, Angeline received the location from Taylor. It would take her 13 minutes to get there from her place.
At the entrance of Clapham Club, Angeline mentioned she was going to room 8918 to pick someone up. The waiter personally escorted her inside. Just as she pressed the elevator button, she saw Ned leaning against the elevator wall while on his phone. Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org
"Please."
The waiter blocked the elevator door from closing, inviting Angeline to enter first.
Ned locked his phone screen and moved to the side upon seeing Angeline.
When he noticed the man's coat over Angeline's arm, he clenched his phone and greeted her casually, "Are you here to pick up your husband?"
Angeline responded noncommittally and entered the elevator.
Ned exited on the third floor and watched the waiter lead Angeline toward the VIP room. His fists tightened as he turned and headed to another room.
Although Ned was curious about Angeline's husband, it was not the right time to learn of his identity.novelbin
The Fletcher family wanted to partner with Vitality Biotech. First, they needed to finalize talks with the head of the Lonla region. Ned couldn't meet with the head of Vitality Biotech's Lonla branch, so he had to invite the head's secretary to Clapham Club to see if he could gather any helpful information.
