Chapter 627

As the media wrote whatever the netizens seemed most hyped about, multiple headlines spawned from the pictures. However, Vania's fans wouldn't take this lying down, so they immediately refuted the unscrupulous reporters online.

'So we're calling 8:00 PM as late at night now?'

'With how far apart they are, how is there any physical contact between them? What back-door deal are you talking about?'

'Didn't you see Jennifer Watson standing beside them?'

'Clicking into this article only shows me a picture and a bunch of made-up stories. Where's the follow-up?'

'Looks like you're bold enough to write whatever you like just for the clicks. Aren't you afraid President Luke would come after you?'

The afternoon international meeting Hanson had lasted until eight at night.

"Meeting adjourned."

As soon as Hanson adjourned the meeting, Larry came over and reported to him with a phone in his hand. "President Luke, Eddie had gone to the police station in hopes of Yvonne's cooperation. However, she had refused."

"Seems like he doesn't know when to stop." Evidently, Eddie amounted to nothing to Hanson. Then, Hanson sneered, "Where is he now?"

"He noticed we were tailing him and immediately gave our men the slip..." Larry's voice slowly trailed off, as he knew that the president would be angry.

As expected, Hanson's tone grew colder as he said, "If not because of how sloppy our men have become, someone like Eddie wouldn't be able to give our men the slip. Since they can't even do something as simple as this, perhaps it's time to have them go through training once more."

Larry nodded repeatedly. "I have already arranged for additional training for them." In order to appease the president's inevitable anger, he already made the arrangements upon getting the news about Eddie. As he observed Hanson's expression, he then said cautiously, "Half an hour ago, Young Master Thomas met with Mrs. Luke's production crew. Right now, they're having a meal together."

Hanson reacted exactly as Larry expected once more, as the former's expression immediately sank. "What's he doing there?" He couldn't fathom the reason for Thomas' appearance.

Afraid of giving out a wild guess, Larry said, "Perhaps it's about Yvonne?"

After a brief moment of silence, Hanson said, "How are things going with the branch office?" Although he was a man, he was a sensitive person.

Larry nodded. "The branch office in Studio City started its operation just this afternoon."

This was probably the fastest Luke Corporation had ever established a subsidiary company, albeit the most reckless. Then again, this was a major event that would influence the happiness of Hanson and Vania, so no one wanted to be responsible for ruining that.

Hanson threw a set of keys to Larry. "We're heading to the restaurant they're in, right now."

"Understood." Larry immediately drove him to Studio City.

Although Larry was already driving the car as though Hanson was on a roller coaster, the latter still felt the speed they were going was slow. Nevertheless, the journey to Vania's location went without a hitch.

Meanwhile, dinner for Vania and the company had just started.

"Vania, how did you and Hanson meet?" Thomas brought the conversation up and called Vania by her name.

Thinking about her first meeting with Hanson, Vania smiled unknowingly. "It was a chance meeting. There's nothing romantic about it at all."

At the same time, Hanson was standing outside the glass door and was looking at Vania's table with a stern expression. Looking at how Vania was pleased in her conversation with Thomas, Hanson felt that there was no place for him here. Nevertheless, he kept his feelings in check before walking over to them in big strides. As he was afraid that Vania would not notice his appearance, he deliberately cleared his throat out loud.

Everyone immediately turned their attention to the source of the voice. "Darling?" Vania was the first to speak among the surprised crowd.

Next to notice Hanson was Bryan, and the latter got up and said, "Hanson, over here.
