Winnie was afraid that someone would come over again a little later, and did not care to talk to Channing about
those things, and hurriedly pushed the recognition out, while whispering: "You wait for me outside, I will come out in
a moment."
Channing raised his eyebrows and was about to leave when he saw Winnie's cell phone ringing.
He walked over and saw that the caller was Donald.
Channing scratched the screen to connect, Donald's voice came: "You that thing, I came back and looked at the
other cases, the lawsuit is still quite good, is afraid of a big impact is not good, it is best to solve privately."
"What is it."
The phone nods, Donald pauses and looks at the screen again to make sure he didn't make a typo.
Donald this person, although sometimes quite unreliable, but will not do that kind of snitching, and after all, or
personal privacy, which is about his professional conduct.
He said vaguely, "You can ask Winnie yourself."
After the words, he hung up the phone in a hurry.
Channing put his phone down and frowned slightly.
......
There was some traffic on the way back, and Winnie looked out at the crowds coming and going, wondering what
she was thinking.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter a while, Channing's voice came slowly, "Donald called you."
Winnie froze and retrieved her thoughts, "What ...... time?"
"While you're changing your clothes."
Winnie silent: "Actually, it's nothing, last time I told you, my mother came back to me, today she asked me for
money, so I asked Donald if I could take the legal route."
Channing said, "How much did she ask you for."
Winnie gently pursed her lips, "Eight hundred million."
"Do you know what she's been doing abroad all these years."
Winnie shook her head: "I only know that the man she remarried at first, it seems to be doing business abroad,
should be quite rich ......"
Channing said, "That's right."
Winnie didn't quite understand: "What does that mean?"
Channing said, "She would have to have a clear need for the money before she would ask you for that figure all at
once."
Winnie still doesn't quite understand.
Channing gave her a look and explained, "If it's Jeffrey Radomil like that, the figure of 800 million, it's not even in his
concept, he'll just ask for a million or two million and move on when he's done."
"So she was just in need of the money?"
"Pretty much." Channing said, "That's not a small amount, and it proves that this husband of hers is now in
business, as long as ......"
Halfway through the conversation, Channing stopped, and his grip on the steering wheel tightened a few notches.
Winnie hung her head and didn't say anything either.
No wonder Halle would suddenly come back to her. Besides wanting to get money from her, the biggest reason was
actually, to use her money to fill her current husband's financial losses.
The reason Halle went to so much trouble to try to get her out of her contract and take her out of the country is
probably because he thought that all her money, after keeping her around, would be theirs.
Channing pulled over to the side of the road and turned his head to look at her, "I'll take care of this, okay."
Winnie shook her head, "You've got enough on your plate, I can handle it."
This kind of thing is not honorable, and she didn't want to involve him in it.
Channing didn't say anything, but simply said, "Let me know first when you have any news."
"Good."
......
The next afternoon, Winnie was reading the script when she received a call from Blake.
Blake said, "Winnie, where are you staying now, Daddy brought you a little something."
Winnie said, "Dad, have you come to City N."
"Yes ......"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWinnie got up and walked out, "Did you just get off the plane? Wait, I'll pick you up."
"No need." Blake said, "Winnie, I just ...... finished meeting your mom."
Half an hour later.
Winnie and Blake are sitting in the dining room.
Winnie handed him the menu, "Dad, look at what you want to eat."
Blake took the menu and ordered all the dishes that Winnie liked to eat as a child.
When the waiter left, Blake said, "Winnie, would you blame me for coming to City N without saying hello to you?"
Winnie smiled and filled his cup with tea, "Why?"
Blake sighed: "I heard your mother say that you want to fight her lawsuit, Winnie, Dad knows that she is the one
who has wronged you, but if you really take this step, the person who will be hurt the most is you, so it is better to
talk about what is going on."
Blake has been honest all his life and has a new family, and Winnie doesn't want to worry about him now because
he has to worry about such things.
She said, "Dad, don't worry, I know."
Blake said again, "Your mother that person is not too bad, is ambitious, she would not have wanted to marry me, if
not because your grandfather ......"
Winnie only knows that Blake and Halle's relationship has been bad for as long as she can remember, but as for the
rest, she doesn't know anything and has never met all of Halle's side of the family, much less heard them mention
it.
