Chapter 208 Soft-Hearted
Helen listened to what Wilson said carefully. She knew what had happened between them, but she didn't think it was a big deal for the young people to suffer the pressure a little, so she didn't really care about that. Moreover, Helen had always been very strict with it, so it was not a big deal. But she ignored the situation of her granddaughter Joanna who was a new comer in every aspect now.
"Are you finished?" Helen put down the coffee cup in her hand and looked at the face of Wilson.
Wilson just nodded and waited quietly for her answer.
"First of all, the heir of the Wan Group must be excellent in every aspect, or it is impossible to be admired by the public. Secondly, she is my granddaughter. No matter what I have done is for her own well-being, you should have no doubt of that. At last, she was able to realize her own shortcomings and take time to make up for them. I'm happy about that. In the future, I'm relieved to hand over the Wan Group to her. However... " Helen drawled, "You are right. It's my fault for she undertook so much pressure from the lessons. I will let Kitty arrange her course properly again. You can rest assured. I will leave Joanna a break this weekend. I will make my assistant, Race, explain it to Kitty. "
Hearing the reply from Helen, Wilson breathed a sigh of relief. It was good enough for her to have a good rest and learn new things only after two days' rest.
"Thank you for your understanding. I have a meeting to attend, so I have to leave now." He said goodbye to Helen and was about to leave. Suddenly, he remembered something else. "Well, there's something that I need the help of you, Director Helen. I'll ask my assistant to present the materials in your office. I hope you can check it and think over it."
After Wilson left, Helen didn't rush to leave. Instead, she sat quietly in her seat and had another cup of coffee, pondering for a long time before she spoke out slowly to her assistant.
"Race, how long have you been working with me?" Apparently, she said that to Race.
"Madam, I worked for you since the first day I came to the company. Now it has been almost thirty years."
"30 years..." Helen mumbled the number while thinking about something else. "So many years have passed. Do you think that I have changed a lot. I won't forgive anyone no matter what I have said to him before. Even if my own child, I just can't believe that I will be so soft-hearted to Joanna so easily just because of those words said to me by Wilson. Do you think that maybe I'm really too impatient? After all, Joanna is just a girl, but I insist on dragging her into the family feud. Am I too selfish? "
Helen had never met anything that was difficult to deal with, except for the family. As the Wan Group had grown stronger, she had always been aggressive and dominating. She was unkind to her subordinates. In her eyes, she only cared about the Wan Group. That was what Francis had told her.
But now, he began to show mercy to a little girl, which made her have to doubt what happened to her on earth.
"Madam, in my opinion, Miss Joanna is a kind-hearted girl. You know that Mr. Wilson showed no gallantry to ladies before. But if he cares so much about Miss Joanna, she must have something special to attract him. Moreover, you have experienced so many ups and downs, it's time to find a considerate person to take care of you, and I think Miss Joanna is a very suitable person. You are so kind to her. Perhaps it is just because miss. Joanna has never stayed with you before though she is your granddaughter, so you concern about her so much. I heard that people would become more kindhearted with the age they get older. Perhaps this is what you are acting now, madam. "
After hearing Race's words, Helen sighed and said, "if I had known this earlier, Francis wouldn't have died if I didn't have made things difficult for him and Sally that year."
Helen herself had long thought about it. It was not not the fault of Sally, but after losing her own child, Helen lost her sanity, so she expelled Sally. And at that time, she didn't know that Sally was pregnant.
Otherwise, she would never allow the heir of the Wan Group to drift from place to place homeless and miserable.
Luckily, it wasn't that hard for her to find Francis's child. For so many years, she had been punished. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
What if...
"Madam, please don't blame yourself for what happened in the past. That wasn't all your fault. If young master wasn't so stubborn, things wouldn't have ended like that. Even though Mr. Francis said something disrespectful to you at that time, I still knew that he respected you, loved you and honored you. If he could see you above the heaven, he wouldn't have wanted to know that you are so guilty. "
Helen didn't know how to reply his words. She just kept drinking the coffee.
She hoped that Francis would really forgive her.
When receiving the message from Kitty, Joanna thought she was dreaming. She pinched her thigh hard. It was painful. It seemed to be true.
"Kitty, are you serious? I can take a rest this week and the appraisal is rescheduled to next Wednesday. "
Looking at the ecstasy on her face, Kitty nodded, "it's just a two-day off, isn't it?"? Why are you so happy?
It was so good to hear that. Although Joanna had been forcing herself to be energetic every day, she actually hadn't been able to sleep well. She hadn't been so nervous even when she took the college entrance examination a few years ago. Was it good or bad to be the inheritor of the Wan Group, she doubted about that out of tiredness.
"That's great. Thank you so much, Kitty. I will do my best and won't let you down."
Then Joanna rushed out. It was time for lunch, and she couldn't wait to share the good news with Wilson.
Looking at her back, Kitty was not as cold as before. Although there was still no expression on her face, she was a little different.
' You are such an innocent girl, Joanna. It seems that you never know how to disguise your feelings. ' Thought Kitty to herself.
Meanwhile, Kitty began to like her so much just because of her honesty and purity. The prejudice she had had when they met for the first time was gone with the wind.
Wilson was also happy to receive the call from Joanna and pretended that he knew nothing about it.
