Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany Novel by Rex Ring

Chapter 367

John had recently gotten more and more comfortable with addressing Tiffany as Mrs. Hampton. And he had a smug grin on his face.

Tiffany glanced at John, half-annoyed and half-amused. "Did you win the lottery recently?"

"No, but I'm even happier than if I had," John chuckled, his voice full of pride and glee.

He could already picture the grand wedding that wasn't far off.

"Oh, right." Tiffany suddenly remembered and asked, "Why couldn't I reach you when you went on a business trip a few days ago? Where were you all?"

This question had been circling in her mind for a while.

She had intended to ask Richard about it once he returned.

But somehow, with just a few words and a light smile from him, Richard's devastatingly charming face had her heart racing so much that she completely forgot about the question.

John scratched his head and answered, though somewhat vaguely, "Oh, we didn't really go anywhere...just took over a small company. Yeah, that's it."

They had dismantled Felix's organization, which could loosely be considered "acquiring a small company" in business terms. John nodded emphatically as he spoke, looking like quite the clever fellow. But his uncertain tone made Tiffany suspicious. "Are you sure that's all?"

Tiffany thought, 'If it was just business, it wouldn't be some huge secret. Why wouldn't anyone

tell me?'

"Yep, that's it. Just the people from the other company were a bit tricky, so we...uh...we caught... I mean, we acquired them, and then..."

He couldn't continue the story.

John's face fell, and, after stammering for a while, he muttered, "Mrs. Hampton, goodbye."

Then he quickly got in the car, hit the gas, and disappeared in a flash.

Tiffany shook her head.

She'd have to save this question for Richard tonight.

She walked ahead and entered the hospital.

At that moment, a bus pulled up by the roadside.

A crowd of passengers disembarked, including Wayne.

Karl was closely following Wayne.

Things were getting more and more tense.

The area was crowded. There was no good chance to make a move.
