Chapter 365 Are We Friends?

Her eyes reddened upon reading his messages.

She could feel his sincerity through the screen.

It was a long time before a stranger actually showed her kindness.

She forgot to take her medicine; she embarrassedly lied in her text.

"Yes, I took the medicine. Thanks for caring. May I know why you are helping me?"

"You're lying… You typed an extra comma because you're flustered. Take your medicine now."

The autumn night was cold, but it was warmer than the winter in Qustraebar.

As the breeze blew by, she felt heartwarming.

It seemed like Hendrik did not want to disclose his intentions, but she was intoxicated by his care for her.

"Are we friends?"

She was lost at the moment, so she asked such a question.

She was a little ashamed, but there was not a button to recall the message...

Just when she felt ashamed, Hendrik replied. "We can be."

She was taken aback for a moment; her eyes were filled with hope.

On that night, she chatted with Hendrik about everything; she wished she had known him earlier in her life.

Han also returned to his villa back in the country; it was midnight after he finished chatting with Leah.

He came to Carlotta's room, and he looked at her quietly for a long time. He was still holding the phone that he used to chat with Leah as Hendrik.

The plan was getting closer; Own was after Leah and Carlotta. He would use all his might to protect the two of them.

After tucking Carlotta into bed, he went back to his room and scrolled through his chat with Carlotta. His heart melted reading it.

She seems to be nice to everyone except me.

But it's nice to be close to her as Hendrik...

He made a call, and his face crumpled. "Start the operation now."

He had pretended long enough; it was time for him to take things under control.

The next morning, Ford and Leah's topic was overshadowed by another story.

"The White Group is suspected of tax evasion and other illegal acts."

"The White Group went bankrupt; Jackson was arrested."

Leah saw the news after she woke up; she was dumbfounded.

The White Group was under Shawn and Jackson's control after what happened then.

Why is it inexplicably bankrupt now?

Shawn was taken away by the police to be investigated a few months ago, but in the end nothing happened.

Anyone could guess that the bankruptcy of the White Group was caused by a powerful party.

Early in the morning, Serena and the workers were discussing it when they arrived in the studio.

"It's unexpected that the White Group was wiped out overnight." One of the workers exclaimed

Lucy was concerned as the White Group was bankrupt. She was worried that the Ford family would be affected by it.

Leah knew that she was sad, so she comforted her and said, "Lucy, you should rest today. Pay a visit to the Ford family if you want."

Serena smiled casually at Leah, and she said "If only I had that much money, then I could buy the White Group and gift it to you."

"Ms. White, can you visit Mr. Ford with me?" Lucy interrupted Serena's words.

Leah was taken aback, but she did not think about it much. She rejected him with a frown, "Sorry, Lucy, but I can't go with you."

And she did not want to enrage Han even more; if not, he might never let her meet with Carlotta again.

Lucy was a little disappointed, but she did not force Leah. She went alone to the Ford Residence.

Leah felt a little bit guilty seeing her left alone.

She wanted to start working, but Serena exclaimed at the side, "The Kendrick Group bought off the White Group?"

Kendrick Group? H-Huh? Doesn't it belong to Hendrik?

She was surprised, and she frowned and pondered. She was confused when she saw Hendrik approaching her.

First he gets close to me, and then he buys White Group. Could it be that there are some important documents in the White Group that he can't decipher? So he needs my help?

After speculating, she lost all her attraction for Hendrik.

She was hurt. So after all, you want to get close to me for your own benefit?

But she was still very grateful to him; because of his help, she was able to survive in the hotel in Qustraebar. She was the chief designer of HJ Corporation, and she partly thanked him.

"Sarah, are you alright?" Serena saw her in a daze, so she asked worriedly, "Are you worried about Shawn?"

Leah shook her head and smiled faintly. "No, I was thinking about the HJ Corporation. They want me to work at the headquarters of Qustraebar."
